QUOTE(zerigemok @ Mar 25 2010, 08:32 AM) Hi need suggestion for a new iem. I previously used creative aurvana, but it's now broken..So i'm looking for a new, better one with budget around/abitmore than aurvana.(rm500 max) The only thing that i'm not satisfied with aurvana is how sensitive it is (when touch my shirt etc) so an iem that is less sensitive is a plus point. Iem with flight adapter is a very minor plus point.. Usage : music from mp3s/videos on laptop. Preferred brand shure/ue/AT/and maybe bose I just need a shortlist of iems so i have a reference of which i can do further research. Any suggestion is appreciated so just fire away  What kind of sound that you like, bassy or trebly? |

QUOTE(moniqee @ Mar 24 2010, 07:40 PM) 1. Audio Technica FC700 2. Koss Ksc75 3. Koss Portapro 4. Beyerdynamics DT231 5. Audio Technica SQ5 6. Audio Technica FW3 7. Audio Technica ON3 8. Audio Technica M30 ( not portable but great SQ ) all are portable headphones... except DT231... but it's well within ur budget... thanks for the recommendation. but which one is closest to the px100? i dont really prefer px100 is because it is an 'open' headphone and i scare will distract the public, but then i like the quality of the bass and the voice clarity..  can some1 help me to narrow down the choices here as im really new to these audio stuffs..thanks |

Yea but at the cost of mid high range clarity and soundstage. At least in the IEMs I've tested I've never really gotten satisfied. Pros and cons for each type of different cans and phones. Auditioning is your best bet.  v |

lol thx for the terms, not really into IEM , can hear myself munching when when eating , haha while using IEM. so i think its still comes down to self-audition. but at least have narrow down to 2 options now. thanks to all again! |
