I bought a pair of W3 from marcopolo.ca and the first thing I noticed about it was the overall build quality of these IEM. The inside box wasn't in an orange paper box like some of the pictures posted on this forum, it is made of some DEFORMED plastic... and the first pair of tips attached to the IEM are medium sized complys(I thoguht it was supposed to be silicone but i might be wrong here). The quality of the actual IEM was totally not of class leading impressions. The wires between the Y-split section to the monitors LOOKS liek there's a scratch on them, the wires have grey strips along it(supposed to be all black). Also, the plug, looks like it was molded from some cheap chinese factory which produces $1 earphones because the shape was not perfectly smoothed out as if the top part and the bottom part was a few mm off, and theres plastic sticking out from the middle of the plug where the top and bottom molds meet.
Does anyone know if this is normal or if it's a defect/fake? ANd what can I do about all this? =( I feel so sad about this, I spend $449 for some defect-looking product. I've endured with this for about a week and a half now thinking that it's fine but everytime i look at the flaws... sadly disappointed.
BTW, sibilance issue does seem to go away with time(burn-in? wierd).
