both the original and OEM K3003

OEM are original. Your'e talking about ordinary fakes.
OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer

  Ha, ha the one towards the middle looks like Monster Turbines.

Not only that the specs show they have 30mm Drivers. That HAS to be a misprint.That's like an Inch and an 1/8.

  I'm i remember the 2 BA and 3 BA models sounding markedly different though, the 2 BA one is brighter and airier while the 3 BA one is darker and smoother.

Did they have good clarity and separation?

Those CRK9LTD's are obviously fake and exactly same earphones can be bought for a lot less than on aliexpress, if you know where to look.

Still easily worth aliexpress asking price imo.

Any chance of more info on where you can buy these 'fakes' that isn't aliexpress, and also why they're obviously fakes?

Another interesting earphones.

Audio Technica said they only produced limited quantity (2000) of CKR9LTD's. Why would someone be selling genuine earphones for such a low price? It's just common sense.

And another thing, go and ask on aliexpress if the seller can supply them in bulk.. Ask for 2000.
I have asked and guess what they said

Good catch on that.
 
Best case scenario, the seller is the OEM of the product, or uses the OEM's drivers and casings, where the internals and casings are exact. If that was the case, it's wrong of them to continue producing more with the AT logos, but the product would be near identical. Ideally, if the OEM owned the design, and if they removed the AT logos and sold it themselves, it would be more ethical (and great on our wallets for savvy international buyers).
 
Otherwise, they could just be really good fakes, but still fakes. Did anyone compare yet?

Haha.. i find it very funny when people who have not even tried the aliexpress LTD'S comment on their authenticity. Well we are not saying that its genuine. But one should not claim that they are OBVIOUSLY FAKE without even trying it.

Those dualies look awesome! Nice find. I've been trying to get a review copy of the second pair, lol. No luck yet

^You should read Bhazard's post.

 

[ozkan]

 
Why not? It's all quite simple.
Please explain, how can they supply me with 2000 of them? That's how many genuine CKR9LTD's there is all together!
Why would I need to listen to them? I can use my brain instead and come to a simple conclusion! Just think about it haha
 
I also said that they can be as good as the genuine earphones. It's still worth it even if they are fakes... that's why I ordered them.

 
Once you get them your reaction might be as your nickname lol.

Yep, you are probably right.  I went back 4 or 5 pages and skipped right over the one under my nose.  Thanks.

Guys, who cares if they are fake if they sound better and better every time I put them on?
