Ok, I brought from that thread too, so I can tell you my experience, when I started, I plugged into a Sony PSP,
playing 128kbps mp3s - noticable improvement compared to my stock sony earbuds that has been playing for over 6 years
next I plug it into my friend's laptop play 320kbps mp3, sounds very different, deeper bass and not that lacking in treble, and best thing is the sound is not muffled by bass
not satisfied with performance, I then played on my PC with a decent soundcard, and played lossless file, thats the end of it, I lost track of time and sat there listening over 30 mins before I remember I forgot to take a shower

From the sound quality, I can tell you even if it's fake(which I'm quite sure is not), it's definitely worth it from the sound quality that I've heard, I trust my ears to prove it. It's even better than my 1 year old Creative HS-600 which I use quite often before.

EDIT: Now I'm trying to drive longer it to see if it can sound even better
