So basically vsonic CEO is not happy that they basically ripped off his design?

Does that mean we should expect the GR08 to sell for 4000 ≈640usd?

Appart from the cable, it's seems to be the exact same thing! Wow...

I noticed this with quite a worried expression, everyone has been expecting a lot less, have they been building up to milk us for this one. I doubt it and hope not but makes you think right!

T-Peos H-200 is looking better everyday. :tongue_smile:

I'm not paying $640 dollars!

 

[Swimsonny]

Until you see H200 RRP: $1000
 
OR that is a direct GR08 clone as well heheh.
 
I would not worry yet anyway mate!

 

[H20Fidelity]

Yeah, could be all hot air at this stage. Hold off on the bank loans people, don't sell your kidney yet! Could be a false alarm!

I don't think that's the price for the GR08! I guess VSONIC's CEO mentioned it like a sort of complain. I can't imagine how the guy is feeling about this situation...

I seroiusly doubt that the the Vsonic's CEO is thinking of selling it for $640. Vsonic has always provided bang for buck but a  relatively low buck compared to the competition. With that said if I'm wrong I definitely won't be getting a gr08 for 600 bucks - I'd rather get the AX9 or change direction and go for the new hifimans or maybe the tzar 350. There's still time though and we shouldn't speculate.

Yeah,  I was thinking the same thing.
 
No matter how the Vsonic drama unfolds (cost, delays to the GR08 release),  the H-200 is (hopefully) on its way.

T-PEOS H-200 comes to early 2013.
Hope many Dual BA + single DD IEMs come to us

 

[Vlooienuker]

Wow, I'm so excited... Albeit $640 is quite expensive, if the reviews say its better than the H-200 and AX9, I will grab one! Lets just hope all 3 of those IEm prices are lower on release!

 

[doublea71]

These prices are just speculation and I wouldn't put any stock into them until there is an official announcement.
 

 

[needsnewcans]

if these babies release under 400 im def. getting a pair
