What do I make of this?? Counterfeits? Defective? They are not worth $2 to me much less $200 so I can, of course, send them back, but not sure what could be the problem. And advice??

Did you break those earphones in? These audiophile earphones are not just to be used out of the box, they need to be broken in for about 8-12 hours. Mine sounded flat the first time I tried it on as well.
