I heard there were many fakes around. That's why I didn't order from Ebay. Didn' find any legit source yet...

@TwinQY: Thanks a lot for your help. I Think i'll go with the HA-FX3X if i can get my hands on some originals, as there are fales all over the place. I wrote to JVC and they said they were not yet officially available here. THX

Well i don't know what exactly mean by sound preferences but I like my bass but don't want to sacrifice too much for it. Otherwise I don't really know. I usually just went to the store and bought some random ones...

I have to replace my Skullcandy Ink'd I because they broke some time ago. My budget is around 20-40$/CHF including shipping as I live in Switzerland. I listen to DnB, Dubstep, Hip Hop, Reggae, classic rock, and classical music in this order. I liked the SK pretty much for the money, but I...
