So I think I would like to give these iems a try, but am at a loss as to where/how to obtain a genuine item. Seems prices are all over the map and a higher priced iem from a given seller doesn't guarantee it'll be the real thing.

Anyone know how to obtain a genuine product?

Thanks.

 
After my counterfeit disaster from eBay, I bought them from Amazon, new, for like $668 and they are the real thing. I was satisfied with that price and I got them overnight. Happy camper here, lesson learned.

Thanks, guys for the info.

Here's another question: Is there a definitive way to tell a genuine product from a fake? Can you look up the serial numbers on line or something?

Check my post a page or two back for detailed photos. As for the serial number, AKG was completely useless in helping me determine a genuine product.

Thanks, man.

I did look at those fotos and will use them as a basis for comparison when I pull the trigger.

Can someone tell me how to see which filter is used. I only have the filters on earpieces. I don't know where the other ones are

Just unscrew the filter and see what colour the little washer is on the filter itself. White is treble one. Black is the bass one and I think the brownish one is the neutral one. I think it's brown anyways. lol it's been awhile since I've had the 3003 in my possession. Could be wrong though lol. But ya look at that little washer.

The Reference Filter is grey - this filter is default mounted

Hello. I have borrowed my 3003i to my friend for a week. Now the righr side is dead silent. Microphone works ok. Any suggestions how can I understand what had happend?

Two possible causes -
1 the filter is clogged, solution wash in warm water and a drop of washing up liquid (this can occasionally happen).
2 There is a break in the cable somewhere, if this is the case than your best option is a warranty return. This happened to my K3003i and I got the K3003 (no mic) at my preference in the warranty replacement. If you're out of warranty then... If this is the case and the break is near the plug you may be able to get it re-terminated. If not then to the best of my knowledge only one person has rewired a K3003 to the monitor end and it was apparently a bitch of a job.

Thanks.
Out of warranty.
You mean to put a drop INSIDE the right side? What washing liquid?
