V-Moda VIP Faders (hi-fi ear protectors) review by Dale

This is my video and text review of the VModa Faders - a surprise item I stumbled across this week, which I think (my personal opinion) everyone should have.
I've already gotten a heads-up from several people about fader-type devices from ACS and Etymotic. So just in case you see any of those, the ACS that sells for $20 USD is just a tuned rubber plug, and the Etymotics basically the same. To get better looking plugs from these other vendors, you have to go way up in price. Even then you don't get metal casing.
If what you get is the genuine ACS, yes. I'm sure nobody would assume they'd get a fake on such a small item, but it happens with headphones, so just be aware. VModa gets faked a lot too.

What a cool device, I had no idea they existed until I saw this and had to go look them up. I would definitely get these if I could find them but I can't see them anywhere in the UK yet
