This is the post from a Facebook group in Thailand about the Hi-Res logo in IE 200. In conclusion, he asked why there is a hi-res logo but some don't have it. There is no conclusion or proper answer yet. I want to know is it falsification?

I think the one with Hi-Res Audio is not genuine

My 2 week old pair came with the Hi-Res sticker (bought from a local dealer)

As far as I know, it's because it's been certified by senheiser recently.

I am not a person who posts on Facebook; I just saw it. From what I know, you can use the hi-res logo if you have a hi-res certificate from Japan. Also, IE 200 does not have a frequency response up to 40 kHz or more. Which means it is not even hi-res or has the correct condition. So, I think it may be a falsification from Sennheiser or a fake one. I am interested to buy IE 200 too. So, if a one with hi-res logo is fake I can avoid it.
