I've been looking around for a pair of these, and I just cant find them anywhere other than Amazon, which I would prefer to steer clear of seeing as a lot of IEM's that get sold through them are fake. Any ideas?

Look at amp3 website. Get the the newer IE80  model instead (probably cosmetic change).
And if you buy online, there's no reason to restrict your choice to UK wink.gif.

That website looks good, and so do the IE80, but they are £60 more!! Do you think it would be worth the extra?

Just found a review comparing the IE8  vs the IE80 : obviously there's an improvement in sound:

If you want to save money get the IE7  instead. I'm not sure the price difference is worth it (people talking of similar sound signature, but the IE8  is supposed to have better treble & soundstage).

Thanks! I think I'm going to go with the IE 8s as £200 is still quite a lot compared to my Senn HD595s and I dont think I'd actually appreciate the difference between the IE 8 and 80.

Marketplace, but they have been known to send out second hand ones.
