My top three picks on that price range are Shroom-EB, Brainwaz M2, Brainwaz-M1 = ECCI PR300 = PL50 (okay, may be not 'three'). But for what you are looking for (good bass. smooth highs, good mid), my recommendation goes to M2 first.

any chances u will review the superfi 5vi? i'm owning it actualy....but wanna hear ur views on it

haha...i'm eyeing the euro currency rate everyday IMO it isn't really expensive as compared to ortofons or IE8 where u need about RM1600 for the latter..the SM3 would cost at most RM1500?

ortofon is rm1500 at jaben malaysia.

To be honest the current UE line-up doesn't really interest me enough. I am not saying it is impossible but the chance is slim.

Well the USD exchange rate is great now. You can probably get one from U.S. and still pay a few hundreds less than the local price (IE8 in Singapore is also mych less than RM1600).

after tax redemptions and also postage charge...earsonic SM3 will cost around rm1.3k++

How is the D Jays compared to Hippo VB. Have PA2V2 and planning to upgrade to Go-vibe martini. Which of the 2 iem will sound best with the martini. Hv tried with VB but not he D Jays
Like the VB bass.

Have not heard the d-JAYS yet, so can't help.
