- How to tell fake counterfeit vs. real sony mdr-v6 (mdrv6) headset headphones in a comparison video. MDR-7506, MDR-7509HD are probably similar. Counterfeit Sony headphones and counterfeit Sennheiser are a very common item.
This is a great video. But there is some key stuff overlooked in this vid.
1. where did you buy these? letting us know means we wont
buy them from that online retailer.
2. if you got an authentic pair. where did you get them?
3. The price difference. What are authentic pairs usually priced at?
Thank you for this video ; especially for the well done, clear close up views. This is the best thing I've seen to ID the fakes. Fortuneately, the recent pair I bought on eBay (private deal, not a dealer) are not fakes. I have an original vintage set from Japan - late 80's manufacture that are still intact and still sound great. Much to my amazement, I think the new ones sound just a slight bit even better! They are amazing $100 headphones. The fakes are the only caveat against them, and you have done the public a great service in making this video. Thanks again.
I would reccomend only buying these from an authorized dealer, or if buying used, the seller should know where they were bought, and you should research it.
It’s called a strain relief, not a shrink wrap
the cable of my mdr-v600 moves slower and appears heavier or thicker. like if I drop the cable it makes a thick rolling plop where as a lot of headphone cables I see in pictures look like they wouldn't make much noise falling on the ground. that def doesn't look very heavy. may just be because I've had them so long or maybe they use lighter material now.
Thank you for posting!
Another thing would be the " for " in " for digital " is more centered and the r doesnt touch the O
My new mdr v6 came with a nylon bag with a 3" Sony logo stamped on the bottom. Are they fake if not a pleather bag? My manual was in a plastic bag with the warranty papers
True review! Thanks for postig!
Thanks for posting..
Do they sound different?
Easiest way is to take off the earpads.
If the driver has a metal dome, its real. If it doesn't, its fake. If its got a metal cover but is flat, its also fake.
I bought mine used at a swap meet so I have no idea if they are real or not. They passed most tests so I'll assume they are genuine for now. But for 3 dollars I don't really mind.
Lol hahahhahahwhwhwhhwhwhw
If you are buying from Ali express they are fake
What are the sound differences between the real and fake?
the fake ones have better sound
😂🤣😂🤣 I'm dead
I baptize this clip as the “However” video.
😂 However 🎉
wow only just released mine is fake, after buying from Amazon years ago. My bag does not have a white logo.
White logo is not nessessary in new original models you can find big logo on the center of the bag
As long as they sound good and are reliable I don't think it's a big deal that they are fake.
How is someone supposed to know what sounds good unless they have a reference pair of the real thing? A lot of people do not know what to expect and the differences in sound may be lost on them unless it’s buzzing. Still doesn’t excuse someone from selling a fake $25 product at a premium. Not to mention crap reviews based on $25 headphones.
Sony may have switched to nylon bags to throw off the counterfeiters.
I ordered a pair of 7506 and I’ll definitely be scrutinizing them.
@@p.granger8824 how did the scrutinisation go? I’ve just ordered a pair of the 7506 yesterday and I’m not too sure about them now after reading through some real vs fakes.
