My only "high end" earphone previously was the Sennheiser IE8 which I lost a couple of years ago. I decided to get back into the hobby by buying the Sennheiser IE80 on eBay for 90$ but after reading just how many fakes were being circulated, I got paranoid. That's why I decided to also purchase the IMR R1 to compare the two and that way I'll know for sure if the IE80's are fake or not. The IMR R1 came first (yesterday) and I'm absolutely blown away by the sound quality. It's in a completely different league than the IE8's. It made me remember why I got into this hobby in the first place. Now I'm afraid even if the IE80's arrive and is real, I'll think they are fake. What have I go myself into
There is a reason why "welcome to headfi, sorry about your wallet" is the unofficial official welcome you know Of course there's nothing stopping you deleting your account here and save yourself time and money but hey where's the fun in that?
