a headband ksc-50 mod.

I thought this was an interesting mod for the sony buds:

Bumped into the site from google images while looking up information regarding those 'counterfeit' ath-ec7s, that are selling on ebay at such low prices.

Moments ago, I was trying to open up my ksc-50. Didnt work. I did succeed in taking out the metal grill, and found out there was nothing I could do to take out the driver (without breaking the plastic hinge).

I want those ec7s on ebay, but they're fake right?

There's even a Utada Hikaru earbud!

What's the purpose of that silicone earbud mod?

Great minds think alike. It's like our K501 tape mods!

And I spot a way to save your velour pads at meets...don't they use these on public toilets?

Huh, looks like a lot of weird little Japanese "jwin" and "coby" brand type headphones. Interesting little designs!

Good stuff! If you go to BabelFish, and copy/paste the blog's URL, you can get a decent translation from Japanese to English (it'll give you a clue to what they're talking about...)

Here's the URL to paste: http://blog.so-net.ne.jp/soundrabbit/archive/c76536

EDIT- Yeah, the translation kinda sucks.

Being a bank auditor, I had the fortune of meeting Justin Kim. Founder of jWin electronics.

Justin (a Korean American) started jWin several years ago in Queens, New York to start a electronic brand he hope would one day become like SONY.

The name jWin came from J-for Justin, and Win -for winning or victory.

So there you have it. jWin is not Japanese but an American brand started by a Korean-American in Queens, New York. They are headquartered there although all if not most of the products are manufactured in Asia.
