[size=medium]Hi guys,[/size]
 
[size=medium]I’ve been doing a lot of research on the ESW9 and almost about to buy it. However, I came across a lot of posts in this forum about fakes and am very worried. There are used sets going for about $170 on Amazon warehouse deals. [/size]

[size=medium]Is it safe to get these? I don’t live in the US so returns would be a hassle. [/size]
 
[size=medium]On a separate note, are there alternative headphones to the ESW9 that are open, portable, with the same type of sound signature? [/size]
 
[size=medium]Thanks in advance![/size]

I got mine a couple weeks ago from Amazon and it was the real deal.

Kimchee, did you buy new or used?
 
I'm not worried about the New sets, but Used is a different matter.

I bought used it was lower priced at the time too.
