Holy *beep*, they LOOK genuine.
Especially the Amadana one. That costs $150 on audiocubes....

I can't afford any of these right now so I'm going to allow some head-fiers for a go.



Lots of electrostat headphones......

I don't know about those headphones...

but those earphones are 100% FAKES.

There's recently been an issue of fake B&O A8, AT CM7 & EC7's , and a bunch of other cheap fake earphones.....

They might look almost identical, but they are fakes.

EC7's, yes.
EC700Ti's, no.

Do your research.

Also, the Adamanda ones are ... interesting.
ELEPHAS, WHERE ARE YOU?!?!?!
He should know if they look identical...

Then why are you asking us if you know which ones are genuine and which aren't.

Cause I'm not? I only said the EC7's are known to be fake, not the EC700Ti.
That's what I'm asking.

Well, use your common sense.

Those manufacturers already have ability to make fake EC7's...so there's no reason that they can't reproduce EC700Ti's.

After all, EC7's and EC700Ti's are nearly same earphones with different designs. You might argue that they have different sound, but I don't think those FAKE manufacturers will even consider about the sound quality.

Well, there are some major cosmetic differences between the real EC7's and the "fake" EC7's.

NO ONE has yet to prove that they are fake; they could be the OEM ones that Samsung has used. No one has compared directly the "fake" ones with ones straight from Japan. Yes, there may be some fakes that look nothing like the origial but there are also ones that look nearly the same but not without its flaws.

Does this comment end the argument?

Also, I have yet to seen the EC7's like the original production pictures. The ones without the rubber overlapping the little bend on the hooks. Does that mean everyone who has gotten them from retail has a fake? Probably not.

Ok... everybody is telling you they are fake in here but you don't want to believe them.

The seller is from Shanghai China and the phones are 5 pounds... use your common sense.

If you do decide to buy them I'm sure they'll make a nice addition to your lo-fi headphone collection.
