The place for fakes and OEM's is now well on the way towards becoming more known for legitimate and serious earphones and earphone brands.

 

 

Thanks for the clarification! I always thought Yuin just produced earbuds. But that's one hell of a awkward looking IEM... tongue.gif

 

About the rest of your post, I must agree. VSONIC aimed at not only becoming the biggest original IEM manufacturer (meaning, their own developed IEMs) in China, but also the leader in terms of product quality and technology! Looking at their recent products, it seems to me they're on the right path, with the GR07 line, the GR01, the new VC02 and the upcoming "GR08". They have also recently implemented an online product autenticity and warranty validation for the chinese market to prevent any possibility of fakes, and it's available for their lastest and future products... popcorn.gif

saying the GR08 is "a lot cheaper" than the K3003 doesn't really help tongue.gif

There's a Hybrid floating around for $120, obviously lendmedurears haven't heard of H-100.

Good point there! The K3003 is the most similar IEM in the market when the GR08 will arrive, so even if they cost half the K3003's price it would be a lot cheaper, but not exactly cheap... biggrin.gif

I've heard about that too but strictly speaking the K3003 (and the tralucent 2p1) are the only other ones with a dual ba + dynamic configuration biggrin.gif

I still think it will be priced between $250 - $300, which will make it the cheapest dual BA + dynamic in the market if I am not mistaken :)

I can only hope and pray you're right. My ball park is $350 - $400. Considering Vsonics GR07 MK2 is a single dynamic driver priced at roughly $180+ we're not going to get a Hybrid of such levels for under $300. But in time we will see.

Actually there's that new English company in Sweden called Cosmic Ears selling a dual BA + dynamic IIRC.
