Okay guys... I recently bought an HPM-82 off eBay. The item description said it was genuine Sony Ericsson & the seller is a power seller & sells a LOT of products. But when I received it, I got it in a plastic packet with the extra earplugs and adapter. It looks original but doesn't sound quite right (according to me). The bass seems to be better on the headphones I got with my K750i. I'm worried it may be fake. Here's the item URL:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120153053907
Check out the photographs of it.
Please help me guys...

its without warrenty... thats it..! but i can say the normal headphones have better bass than the walkman headphones ... and if u you use walkman headphones with walkman phones u get better bass and sound quality while if u you walkman headphones with normal phone its not too loud compared to walkman phones
hope you get me.. i had bought bluetooth walkman headphones and i sold them within a month because of this reason before that also i had normal walkman headphones too and i have also used a walkman phone so..i guess this is the answer of urs..!!

Well... Yeah I do get you... But that I can fix later with the acoustics. But do the headphones seem real? Cause if they aren't real, I'll ask for a refund. I paid GBP 9.99 + GMP 2.99 (Shipping to India).

By real, I mean if they're Genuine Sony Ericsson. If they're not... I'll file a complaint at eBay & ask for a refund. If they're genuine, then I'll try to mess with my phone's Acoustic files or just sell them later.

Hey, you got it genuine.
I got some genuine and man they sound really bad, just like yours. So I believe you have the same.

Thank you for the reply.
Well... I guess.... I hope they are. But could you help me, by suggesting fixes to the Acoustic files on K750i (CID49; BROWN) so that it sounds better. As in which patches would you recommend? I'm leaning towards sound quality, better bass response as well as volume.
Thanks again...

Yes it is. It is just that the actual sound quality of walkman phones is better than that of K, P or Z phones (except the K750).
By the way, what mobile do you have? I have the K800, and put Walkman acoustics on it.

Well I can't answer that question because I own a K750i and I've never used box packed Walkman headphones that come with the cellphones. But seriously I'm not satisfied at all with the HPM-82. It distorts slightly when using Mega-Bass.
