I wrote a post back in the day warning buyers about the V-Moda Vibe Duo Headphones. This was because these high quality, expensive headphones had a flaw that would cause the headphones to develop a short within a few months. I experienced this problem along side with hundreds of other customers.
A lot of companies make mistakes, but it are the good companies that recognize their mistakes and makes up for them. V-moda is one of those companies. After my buyer beware post, a very nice fellow by the name of Grant Marek contacted me. He was from a company called FormulaPR, which is the PR company for V-moda. He told me that V-moda understood that there was a mechanical flaw in the Vibe Duos and were re-moddling them. About a month later, I got a package from Grant with the new Vibe Duos in it.
As you can see from the pictures, the new version has a bigger and more stable jack. Obviously, the short came from a problem in the jack and not in the headphones themselves. I assume this new jack is much more sturdy and will satisfy customers who had past problems with the Vibe Duos. Grant gave me some specs about the jack, “It has a 45-degree flexible design and a sleek, sturdy core fused w/ a 35-corrot gold plated plug.” Sounds pretty nice to me 
So, that buyer beware is gone. Go buy your Vibe Duos!
