Who did you purchase them from? I don't know that you can tell that you've been "scammed" based on the language of the manual, as the IEM is Chinese in origin, and is sold in many markets. There really isn't much to the manual other than a chart indicating the sound signature of each filter and nozzle, which is available on-line and in many on line reviews. Does the packaging of your item match that shown and described in reviews? I'm not aware of any fakes on the market, but I suppose it is possible.

Search much?

Mine was in Chinese as well because...shocker!....I ordered it from China.

Try this, may still be available. Otherwise ask nicely again....

That's from original FLC8 without S but it's the same I think.

The cable looks like flc8s, there is no fake flc8s don't worry. As long as it sounds good, it should be authentic.

This review contains a guide to how the filters affect the sound. It's not the actual manual, but it's the most important info the manual contains. The info on changing the filters isn't that helpful, as she tweezers don't work all that well. Best to just use your fingers.

Once you get the hang of it it's very easy. The ones that have a little screw shape and is plastic are subbass filters (red being highest, white being lowest amount). Now the little rubber sticks that go on the surface of the IEMs are bass filters (black being highest, white being lowest). Finally the big metal screw looking thing screw onto the bore. The blue = mids, less highs. The gold = mids, highs. The black = mids, more highs. The green = mids, extreme highs. I personally think gold is the most balanced, black gives some sibilance. Just pick the mids,highs filter that you like and adjust the bass and subbass depending on your preference and tips (fit), and source of course. Believe it or not, tips do actually change the sound. Even switching the sizes of stock tips alter some parts of spectrum to be attenuated or diminished.

Yep, that would be my review and can also be found here on Head-Fi: http://www.head-fi.org/products/flc-technology-flc-8s/reviews/15623

Didn't realize that. Nice work, it was a big factor in my purchase of these IEM's, still have no desire to upgrade.

Anyone know where i can buy a good 2.5mm trrs to 3.5mm adapter ? I need it for my flc 8s with 2.5mm balance cable. I found one at http://www.norneaudio.com/litzheim/norne-audio-cable-cables-hypershort-ultrashort-eidolic-balanced-trrs-4-pole-female-3-5mm-rhodium-astell-and-kern-a-k-adapter-direct-soldered-conversion, but its quite expensive.
