That's irony I can get behind. He already sold his and I just want to know if theses are real or fake!

Hahaha he really wanted to make sure I know they're fake :P

Thanks for replying and giving such detailed information. I think he just put his tips in a different bag and the cable is green because that's what happens with the clear cable. But I believe your other comments and now I think I'll not buy them at all and I will look further. Thanks!

Hi guys, I don't post here often but I lurk here a lot. My Ortofon EQ5 died on me so I'm looking for a replacement. I decided to go for the Shure SE425 and I found a good second hand deal on a local website. I can't pick them up due to the distance and I'm hesitating because I'm not sure...

 Smart! Thank you for the tip! Going to do it right now so I can order them.

I'm about to buy the Spinfit eartips for my Ortofon EQ-5 but I don't know which size I need and I don't want to buy multiple sizes because I'm not going to use the other ones. I normally use the Ortofon silicone Medium eartips. These have almost the perfect size. The Large hurt my ears and the...

Thank you for helping so fast. It looks like the price will not go down. So I'm thinking about buying Spinfit if I have to spend this amount anyway. The M silicone Ortofon tips fitted perfectly. Does anybody knows which size of the Spinfit i should buy? I read somewhere that Ortofon had a weird...

I lost one of my M silicone tips and I can´t find a good website other than this one (http://www.ortofon.com/silicone-eartips-set-p-577) to buy new ones. But they are, with shipping, in total 20 euro, which I find a bit much. Does anymore no a better (cheaper) website where I can buy the M...

Don't apologize! I really appreciate your help. I just ordered the E-Q5 this morning (GMT+1) so I already purchased them. But I found a shop in my own country so it's easy for me to return them if I don't like them. I understand they are not bassy but I find the E2C bassy enough so I think the...

I've heard that before :). But I really have only $100 dollar left on my $300 dollar budget because of the choice for the E-Q5... So is only a C3 also a big upgrade for the E-Q5?

I'm planning to buy the Ortofon E-Q5 as my next headphones and I would like to know what sources you guys use with these phones. I'm currently only using an iPhone 5 but I was wondering if it's really an upgrade worth of $100 to go to a Colorfly C3 or a Cowon for example.

That's the cheapest I found so far too.

Thank you for all your help! I appreciate it very much. Now it's time to search for the best price! Thanks.

Sorry I don't understand you. What is a lod? I have a iPhone 5. And are saying my iPhone 5 is enough or is a Colorfly or Cowon worth the extra $100?
