Yupz... I'll also ask around for da audio hub or perhaps later then I'll found some better solution for such case tongue.gif... Btw, u surely no idea how much u bought it? unsure.gif

Actuallly, it's like decided but I'm still looking for other option for da speakers. It seem I'm enjoying music, movie and gaming together. Music prefering 2.1 but movie and gaming prefering above 2.1 . R501 MKII is 5.1 setup which suit my choice. But then the 'clarity' is like not as much as I expected... perhaps I'm really asking too much from a budget speakers sweat.gif... Just thinking too much doh.gif

Oh the price, actually went to the shop again and surveyed the price. It was RM35 on the price tag. I think I bought around Rm30 last time. Hehe sorry forgot to post about it. Maybe the speakers need to cook it as well. Need to ask those who "cook" it before. unsure.gif

when is edifier s2000 being released in M'sia officially? And any idea how much this would cost?
Looks good and hopefully it sounds good, prolly a noob question but how would this be compared to Altec Lansings MX5021? ( I had my eye on this as well)

I am reaaly interested in a high end 2.1 speaker setup then a low range - mid range 4.1 or 5.1 ,since my rec room isnt that big, need this hooked up to my video game consoles PS2,Xbox primarily.:-D

Nope they never did a comparison of the EX71 vs H260, but they did say that the H260 is better than the Sony MDRE888, an earbud earphone.

The S2000V should be below RM1k. And if compared with the MX5021, its definately better, but the lack of a subwoofer means that its bass is not as loud as the MX5021.

My best translation:

(first page)

QUOTE(first paragraph)
AKG K14P is lately a very popular earphone, and is said to be the "killer of MX500" by many publications. Although the Edifier H200, which is very similiar to K14P was launched a year earlier than the AKG K14P, various publications have said it to be almost on par with the MX 500. The price difference between the K14P and the H200 is quite big, 199 RMB for the K14P and 60RMB for the H200. Both of these earphones generally have adequate ODM (this sentence im not sure). In real life, [the author] believes that nobody can hear the difference. No matter Edifier or Da Ying Ke or other brands, we can just say that national products are released in an unfair enviroment, as some users do not pay attention to detail and have a prejudice against national products


- The earphone's housing is the exactly the same, just the holders are different color, one gray one black.

- LOGO not same (lol)

-AKG 14P, similiar wire length

-Edifier H200, one short one long wire.

- (whatever it is) comparision, K14's bigger a bit, both have "unclosable" uber thin design.

-both also 3.5mm minijack.

QUOTE
POP feels that, as in the H260 review, at a RMB 500 - RMB 1000 budget, AKG and Sennheiser both depend on hype and therefore give people a "good" impression of their products. Actually when it comes to technology, in this market, AKG and Sennheiser don't have any strengths, but of course, we cannot ignore both brands' high-end products' strengths.


(page 2, PK upgrade(???), K14P vs H200 again)

-This is POP's editor which has previously sampled the AKG K14P and Edifier H200, out to prove the previous page's questions.

-K14P's packaging

-H200's packaging

-K14P's enclosure

-H200's enclosure

When we see the enclosures, we'd like to remind everyone about Feng Da , it is a very big earphone manufacturer whose factory is in China. And how many products in the market come from Feng Da? Like, very very very many.

- K14P

-H200

-K14P

-H200

If you guys are interested in this comparision, you guys should go and test them out to see if there is any difference. If you guys cannot find enough recordings/products to test out, why dont you contact us, we will give you guys the opportunity to do so.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

That's my best, hope you guys find it useful. btw, the sentence structure is abit erratic because I'm too lazy to properly restructure them, sorry.

(page one, improvement in aesthetics, but not contemporary enough)

Edifier has released a high end earphone this month - H260. By the support of Edifier, information regarding the H260 is easily available. And after one week of usage (for the burn-in), we'd like to present the review of H260.

The most widely-circulated question about the H260 is wheter it can easily trump the other earphones in the sub RMB 500 category. Before we get to there, let's check out the H260.

From the pic above, the H260's packaging is quite different from the other Edifier headphones. They have addressed the problems in the previous packaging. In the case of the H100, although the paper box was very attractive, the headphone casing was totally unattractive. It's a very outstanding change in the H260.

For the headphone casings, the H260's has underwent detailed design. The build quality has improved, the design is not bad and it feels light in the pocket.

We feel the H260's packaging improvements are significant. This aspect is very important towards consumers now. Of course, no matter what kind of user you are, you will be concerned about the usage of the H260. We will now talk about the H260 earphones.

(2nd page, canal earphones, comfort is the biggest question)

As you can see, it is not hard to guess that the H260 is a canal earphone, and for canal earphones, comfort is the biggest factor for consumers. Because canal earphones create a silent enviroment, and everbody's sensitvity is different, you will have some early incompatibilities with them.

When we first tested the H260, it was quite a tight fit (on medium rubber plugs), but after 30 minutes or so of getting used to it, there was some changes. Although we may feel that using smaller rubber plugs may be more comfortable, there will be big differences in performance due to the gaps. So, medium rubber plugs are the best size for most people. The big rubber plugs, many people wont have the need for them.

Besides comfort, we must confirm that the canal earphones create an enclosed enviroment. If it's too loose, there is no way to accurately gauge the performance. Comapred to the previous earphones from Edifier, we feel that the H260 has improved in terms of comfort, but not exceptional. We will use the following picture to show where the real problem lies.

-Edifier H260 plugs on left, Sony NX1 plugs on right.

Not too long ago, we reviewed the Sony NX1, we found out that the comfort of canal earphones can be affected by the material of the plugs. Smaller and thinner plugs can be more comfortable, but under the same dimensions, smaller plugs can be almost as good as big plugs in creating an enclosed enviroment. But, of course, smaller plugs are more comforable and a strong have hear-?-? effect although they degrade easier.


(page 3, sound quality test, how H260 wins the Sony E888)

Although many forums say that the H260 defeats all other earphones in the sub RMB 500 categroy, but due to limited conditions, [the author] only has a RMB 300+ Sony E888 and a Sony NX1 which was reviewed not too long ago. Both Sonys cost around RMB 350, and has surpassed H260's price by over 50%. Although we have no means of proving that the H260 is capable of surpassing RMB 500 earphones, but we can have comparision of the H260 and E888.

Sony E888's reputation is quite big for a RMB300+ earphone, brand also not bad. So how does the H260 stack up to the opposition? We use the Ling Long soundcard as a testbed.

Under the Ling Long 2, both earphones perform splendidly, as both must surpass the quality of normal earphones. We easily found out that the H260's sound quality distinctly surpasses the Sony E888. Of course, the H260's sound is not perfect.

Let's talk about the bass first. Canal earphones produce good bass easily, and the H260's bass depth, punch and clarity are not bad. The E888 is not capable of the H260's bass qualities. The E888 gives out a thinny bass. But, [the author] feels that the H260's bass might be overpowering for light music. But for Jazz where the recording is exceptional, the H260 performs very well. From the perspective of reproducing music as closely to the original source, the H260's bass has punch, but there are some ??.

Treble - the H260 is not hard on the ears, but picky on recording quality. For lower quality recordings, the treble can be quite noisy and undetailed. The treble for the H260 is much better than the E888, it is quite detailed. Only for the midrange does it sound a bit thinny. The midrange on the H260 is not rich enough, artistes sound younger than they are. This is one part where the H260 loses to the E888. But, the E888's midrange is altered, especially for human sounds, which is quite unreal.

Conclusion, the H260's treble, midrange, bass, soundstage(?) and muscial qualities are exceptional. As a RMB 200 product, it is a value buy. But for the movement of sound, it is quite hard for canal earphones to achieve this. Compared to international brands, the H260's price is very attractive and everyone should go test it out. Even though the H260 is a high end product from Edifier, it is not the best.

Conclusion

Everyone may not understand how did Edifier suddenly improve in the earphone department. By understanding the earphone market in the RMB500 - 1000 category, it's not about the design, wheter your are Edifier or Sennheiser. As the components are the same, they both are produced from one of the many domestic earphone factories.

We'd like to tell everybody currently AKG, sennheiser and (Metal 3 point?) have sucky low end earphones or maybe they dont invest in the R&D/put effort. They just use the packaging and brand name to monopolize the domestic market. When the H260 goes onto the market, you guys should really give our domestic brand earphone a go.
