to be corrected.. Pro Detox is USD $599.95... Pro is USD $499..

I can say now, to detect a fake Pro.. look closer on the the metal "bridge" that connects the handler and the cup.. see if the finishing workmanship..

question here!!!!!!! any1 know where can i repair my monster Beat Studio??? my beats now only beats at one side

it suddenly sound at right side only.....

browsing through the audio related acc topic just now. realised that there are many ppl selling beats from powertech. which are cheaper by few hundreds. any idea whether those are genuine?

This is a questionable matter where almost every buyer turn out to be an "expert" in examining Monster Beats product. Even I myself don't dare to proclaim I'm an expert. In early posting, I had stated that I am currently able to roughly identify several ways of spotting fake Pros and Solo HD, directly given by Monster Cable personnel (yeah, my company is the ONLY.. ONLYYYYY authorized DISTRIBUTOR of Monster Cable products in Malaysia and Singapore/ except Monster Energy Drinks).

However, due to agreement, I am not able to show the slides to the public. One of the main factor is, Counterfeits manufacturers are improving from time to time. End-users are getting quite aware of spots to look out: such as identifying the "tm" words, Dr.Dre neck area, and etc, and these "spots" are already matter of the past. Just from box/packaging, it will be hard to know whether it's genuine or fake, except for the too-hard-to-believe-price (which customers willing to pay for and go home only to know it's fake). If I am to show out to the public, what are the key areas to look out for fake Beats headphones, there's high risk of counterfeiters to overcome their weakness and improves their products as well.

Today, I dropped by Low Yat Plaza and on the 2nd floor, wow, almost every corner I turned my head, there were Studios, Tours, Solo HD and everything. A quick look I took and it's almost flawless and the packaging looked towards perfection. Now I have myself to believe the "GREATNESS" in Pirated industries.

If you guys think the methods of other forumers selling are quite suspicious (ONCE AGAINN:except DigitalTech-Sole LYN Reseller at time being), STOP instantly and DON"T PUT YOUR MONEY THERE.

Think logically. Studio = USD $300/$349 * 3 = RM 900/RM1000+ ..how is it possible to escape tax? Kopi-O??? Free logistic cos Boeing 737 or Titanic belongs to forumer's relative?

2nd logic: If anything happen to the head-set (within warranty period), which accidentally be your fault, you just sit down there and cry? OR you arrange your own mode of courier to US (if its genuine), and bear at own expenses which you might be taxed when US side ship it back to you.... in which, in the end, the price add up more or less, very close to M'sia SRP. (this is the part where I don't understand why soooo many end-users not able to see beyond this point)

So, it will still boils back to yourself.. do you want to risk your hard-earn $$? Cheers

so buyin from powertech is safe?

Added on June 24, 2011, 12:24 amCouple of things to identify if you purchase a Solo HD Red
- original 2 x screws on each side are ALLEN-KEY type, not Philips-Key Type
- metal on foldable side will not have friction (gesaran) with the red plastic.
If you confuse on which 1 i'm referring to, fold your Solo HD, look at (SOLO HD) Special Edition wording, you will see the grey rubber, the red plastic in between, and then the metal.
- Also at same place, some Fakes have left-over glue stain, poor finishing
- the "b" logo should be almost the same color as the body of Red

I think that's a few obvious things to identify.. .. not written in the most commonly used "avs"-link website..

i just bought a solo from a seller who got that from HP i need to send back warranty to hwee seng? but already over 14 days how ?

If you talking about the warranty card, photocopy the receipt from the authorized HP outlet and enclose together with Hwee Seng warranty card. Solo carries only 1 year warranty.

For warranty claim (within a year), you need to have receipt as proof of purchase. Best if you/he can refer to HP Malaysia first, cos as far as I'm concern, normally customers go back to HP. On the worst case scenario, you may come to my office.

Few threads of a so-called "genuine" reseller of Monster Beats products, who had raised so many doubts in forumers' mind, have been removed/taken down. Anyone with info on that, please do share with us over here. Thanks..

This information is very useful for me as tomorrow I'm going to cod a used solo hd red... Need this to identify it's real or fake.. Really scared i brought home a fake one..
