Fake from amazon?? Has Sennheiser redesigned these to be cheaper recently?

I just received a pair, and wrote about it here before I saw this. Your story sounds just like mine. Sound is terrible. I wrote Amazon about it. I guess I'll see what they (Amazon) are made of. As what to do. Send them an email. Look for "Contact Us" on one of the help pages.

No there are not fake. Awesome sound quality. They were not THAT much cheaper than ones in the store. Which by the way are super difficult to find. All I can say is I'm very pleased and good luck.

Yes, these are genuine. You are right to ask, though... there are reputable stores that have sold fake versions of these (doubtless they were unaware of their lack of authenticity). I bought one from a popular online tech store at the same time I bought this one. The Amazon one was real, the other was not. I've spent the past 3 hours going over the details... there is no doubt about this unit's authenticity. (and it performs much better than the fake!)

These are NOT real. I bought these after I thought lost my originals bought from the Apple Store in NY. I then found the originals. The tell is that you can twist the direction of the sound port on these but not on the originals. (I know this because mine were delivered pointed backwards!) The Apple earphones sound way better.

I do not know since they were exchanged for Sennheisers long ago. They certainly looked and felt good. Too bad about the audio.

Yes, they come in a nice quality vinyl bag with drawstring that says SONY on it, lower right corner. If it does not say Sony and the quality is quite cheap then you most likely have a counterfeit fake headphone made in China (Although the headphone will say "MADE IN THAILAND" on the inside of the headband). Buy from Amazon, B&H; or other reputable/quality dealer for the real Sony MDR-V6. Trying to save $20 will most likely get you the fake!

Its not fake. I bought a pair from this website. To answer your question about why its cheaper on here, Different co-operations have different pricing strategies.

Black box with comply foams and looks new to me. All accessories and adapters look new and metal case is clean and untouched as far as I can tell. Sounds incredible and I don't care about the packaging although it I had bought as a gift I would be pissed. Doesnt Amazon usually list the new type of packaging for the products? Don't seem to remember seeing that on the deal of the day. Bought the Klipsch ones as well so lets see how they compare!

Yes and it looks like they have gotten quite a bit cheaper since I bought mine in June. I've been very happy with the pair I bought, I'd be even happier at the new price !

I doubt it, they seem to be Chinese copies of a great American product. As for mine they've been great and have been for a long time and very inexpensive compared to American sold ones being still being made over seas and only being QAed by the American companies. At the price you are getting them for I'd by another pair and still be well under the costs of companies here. This being said I've gotten some that have sucked and these ones to my experience haven't.

The description is strange by Sennheiser to say the least . I'm sure they are the same .

Just wanted to pass along that Amazon took back the opened package. Others I've listen to didn't sound anything like the crappy ones I received.Amazon has first rate customer service. I'm going to try a different pair from here. Any suggestions?

The headphones themselves are completely unbranded; there are no logos or even the company's name. So they are generic in that respect. As far as who manufactures them? I don't have that at my fingertips, but Amazin probably lists this on the product page.

It depends on the vendor. When I bought a pair from iDeal Xpert, they were fake. But I took a chance and bought again from MyParana, and those were real and new! Over the past several days I haven't seen Amazon itself selling any, but we customers should help each other know who sells the real ones and who doesn't!

No they are not a knock off they are official headphones by Ludacris. The best investment I've made.
