So I received mine from the banned store that rhymes with cheesy today. I think I got a third variation in packaging.   No sticker on the outer box. (R) after Magaosi logo on the outer box. Gray-ish cardboard with red Magaosi (R) logo and k3 in lowercase. Black connectors for the silver...

  They're back in stock today. There are about 180 pairs left as of right now.

According to Hifimanz on Reddit, the new 2.5mm cable is 6 feet long instead of 4 feet long for the old mmcx cable.   Apparently there's a brown oily substance that's dry inside the wood cups. It seems that they did treat the wood.   More photos from him: http://imgur.com/a/tnSRh

I purchased my pair from the banned store that rhymes with cheesy. The K3 Pros will be arriving soon but I don't think that store would sell counterfeit ones. When the Aliexpres 7th Anniversary sale was announced, that banned store was originally going to sell the K3 Pros for under $80. Then...

Does anyone know which Comply tips fit on the K3 Pros?

  Thanks. Though it's still a little odd that there are two versions of the K3 Pros with different bundled cables.

So are there two versions of the K3 Pro, at least in terms of packaging?   On AliExpress, I see a version with one silver L-plug cable and one straight plug cable with a mic.    There's another version with one silver L-plug cable and one silver straight plug cable. Both have no mic.  ...

  Yeah, I saw that. But apparently others on Head-Fi have had bad experiences with him not sending earphones they bought from him. Obviously AliExpress will refund, but you will have missed the sale by then and there's the additional hassle and disappointment of dealing with refund.   I don't...

Oops. I removed the link from my original comment.   I can't do anything about the people who quoted me though. The link is still there. O__o

Okay, so I think the lowest sale price you can get on these after coupons is about $90 on AliExpress.   The app sale price is $109.35. AliExpress Select Coupon is $6 off order over $55. Store coupon is $10 off $100. Seller discount is $3 off every $99 spent.   $109.35 - 6 - 10 - 3 = $90.35...

  What price did you buy those for?

I don't understand why you're so condescending.    These earphones' pads use poor material and don't last, which is fine to me since they're cheap. I don't want to throw good money after bad so I'm not going to bother with replacement pads. I'll move on to a different pair of earphones that...

It's perfectly serious.    The ear pads turn into dust after a few years. I just don't think spending half of what these earphones cost to get replacement pads are worth it when the pads are $7-8 and the earphones are $16. I just did some research, apparently ear pad disintegration is normal...

Well, it's just I'm rather turned off by the pad quality. Apparently these pads turn into dust after a few years and it's been reported elsewhere too. It seems pointless to keep on throwing $7-8 bucks into replacement pads if they just turn into dust.

So, I retrieved my old pair of KSC75s from my drawer. To my surprise, the ear pads have completely disintegrated. All that's left is just... dust.   I originally bought these in 2009. I guess I'm not too upset about it since they only cost $16 back then. There's no point in trying to replace...

I'm curious for those that had their ear cups crack, how are you guys storing the headphones? Do you put them on a headphone stand, the type that causes the ear pads to compress on the stand? Or do you put them on a headphone hanger that lets the ear cups hang freely?   Do you store the...

I now wish Monoprice priced these at $350 instead, with better focus on build quality / QC.   Wishlist:   1. 2.5mm connectors or other more common connectors 2. better designed wood cups, or just use plastic or metal -__- 3. better, more comfortable headband   The M1060's are very...

  I highly doubt your headphones are used though since they literally just got released. See the Reddit comment.  

  This really worries me. These headphones are not as well built / designed as they should have been due to the MCMX connectors and now there's a potential headband issue too. Normally, the 5-year warranty would assuage my concerns but the terms of the warranty don't even exist (what the...

Well, that settles it. Kudos to Monoprice for correcting the error. Apology accepted.

  Yes. I ordered through eBay and used the "contact seller" function. Monoprice replied that they'll honor the 5-year warranty with my order because the purchase date was before the warranty change.

You know, the M560 had the 5-year warranty as well and it also got slashed to 1-year today along with the M1060. I don't think there's been any complaint about the M560's build quality. So, I doubt it's because of the M1060's connector.

  Oh wow, this is the one time when being an early adapter pays off. The difference between a 5-year and 1-year warranty is huge, especially for headphones. I'm glad that I pulled the trigger on mine early now.

Update, I got a response from Monoprice as well. Here's their reply:  

  This x1000. If you bought these headphones, do yourself a favor and please contact Monoprice to get a confirmation for your individual case. I prefer email / chat because you'll then have the response in writing.
