They are absolute junk; super cheaply made and sound even worse than you would expect after examining them.

All internal parts are poorly-molded plastic except the charged backplate itself.

The saddles are usable (actually have proper LDC mounting holes); worth 8 bucks a pair?

Problem is they look very much like these 25mm electrets from Aliexpress ... which really aren't too bad at all.

So - we've now got plastic BM800 bodies, plastic 25mm electrets that look like the brass ones, and horrible 9mm omni electrets dressed up to look like FETless TSB165a style capsules.

Really is like the wild west out there these days!....:)
