J&R is an authorized dealer for MTP Gold earphones, however, they offer one listed at a retail price of $279 http://www.jr.com/monster-cable/pe/MC_129393/      and one at $179 http://www.jr.com/monster-cable/pe/MC_129430/#productTabDetails      The only noticeable difference is that the cheaper one has built in control talk.  Are these identical with the exception of control talk ?

Yes, identical. Good deal too. I have always said that IEMs without mics are better because it's just one more thing that can break on you.

amazon has been selling that same model for mid 150's go check them for a current price never pay more than you have too

I read somewhere that buying from amazon and not directly from an authorized dealers voids the warrenty? Also, are the included tips any good or should i look into comply tx-400 which i see are widely recommended

If it says "sold by amazon.com" then it is an authorized dealer. Amazon.com is an authorized dealer, just not the marketplace sellers.
