Seems like there is a place selling them and monoprice is re-badging them so yes it might be true. The test is in the listening.

2018-01-08 04:25:02 +0000 UTCZ, have you read the Q&A page of the retro's? Is all of you... <a href="https://www.monoprice.com/product?" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.monoprice.com/product?</a>

2017-12-03 07:03:18 +0000 UTCMr Zeos, How difficult do you think it'd be to mod these with a removable cable?
2017-12-03 02:06:08 +0000 UTCI think you will get enough out of the Mpow. Just going to have to deal with the LONG cable.

2017-12-02 19:42:28 +0000 UTCdo you think the Mpow bluetooth dongle will be able to power these decently? i was looking at the MD 6XX's and thought why not get the SHP's and these retros (yes the pad swap made a huge improvement, thanks) to see if i really need the 6XX's. i'm running both through the micca origen G2 and with this set up i can't see the need for much of anything else, at least for me. thanks Z!
2017-12-02 17:26:34 +0000 UTCI just got mine in and threw on the brainwavz round in velour on them. They are just fun. I am listening to the 4:44 album again and the bass is just silly on these headphones. I use AKG k7xx's every day normally and I just like these new ones as a change. They are not the same as 200+ dollar headphones. These are headphones to just throw on and listen to some heavy bass music on where you want to hear a good good type of bass.
2017-12-02 00:54:06 +0000 UTCGot a pair in today and threw on some pure, raw comfort velours I hadn't used yet. I don't have many pairs of cans and these damnable things are acting in ways that my better headphones just do not. The thickness of that bass. The comfort, the price, there's nothing you can hold against these. Except the pads of course.
