I got my PL50 today. It's good, especially the mids. Bass quantity isnt very good, but I'm okay with that. Highs are okay but a bit muddy and lacks sparkle me think, probably drowned out a bit by the mids. Soundstage is alright, but use the silicone tips. The foamies are rubbish when it comes to soundstage. Maybe I havent seen many IEMs yet, but I dont find the build quality to be very good. Average or slightly above average I would say. Good for pop songs and vocals, so something like Lily Allen sounds great on these.

I think the next IEM I wanna try is one which is brighter and more analytical with high detail. I like my treble to be crisp and sparkling. is it true that dynamic drivers usually lack detail of BA earphones? Also, I like my soundstage to be very wide, since I sometimes listen to film scores and quite a number of my non-score tracks are quite orchestral. But I've read that dynamic drivers have single BA beat in this category. So, can anyone recommend dynamic driver earphones that has nice, bright highs? Below RM250.

try

RE0 , SP1 , Crossroad Quattro , Woody , Bijou #3/4 ^^

i am thinking of buying a new headphone around rm700-800 (or less) next year. im using samsung p2 and clip+ and hopefully the headphone can be driven unamped. i also want it to be portable (not so bulky, better if can carry in my backpack) since im a student and i prefer to listen to music anywhere i go. doesn't care much whether its open or closed but better if it is comfortable to be worn for long hours.

i listen to all kind of music, but prefers rock and heavy metal.

any suggestions?
*
since u wan portable

i would recommend

Audio Technica FC700 ( RM230 ) walabies

it's portable, stylish, it's has similar sound signature as M30 but with added bass... it's closed and it has leather pads to be comfortable...

I need a headphone recommendation.

Budget:RM200-300

Anything which sounds AWESOME will do fine. I do a lot of gaming.. and I mean a lot. That doesn't mean I'll buy a gaming headset(when all they add is a microphone) when I know I can get a better quality headphones for the same price. Any recommendations? I prefer Sennheiser, but impress me anyhow.

I worked a lot on getting RM200-300 lol. I'm not a scholarship student, what do you expect? Trying to apply, though.

So uh.. my music genre? I prefer an all-around good, please (The way it's meant to sound like, I guess). I'll say ridiculously high bass isn't my thing. I like anime songs, if that matters.

On another thing, what about those 5.1 headphones? Do audiophiles use them, or are they most likely gaming headphones? They will be my future buy. They cost quite a lot too, RM 700. Anything for an edge in online gaming, though. There's this guy I play with that has a 5.1 setup (not headphones) that score ridiculously high in COD4.

I don't have a discrete sound card, no amp, nothing. Just my realtek chip. Discrete soundcard will be in the future.
Don't forget to tell me where I can get them too.

gaming ar?

then A300 / A500

all round good music genre?
try M30 RM200-230
or AD300 RM230-240

portable usage = try FC700 RM230 ( it's has similar sound signature as M30 but with added extra bass )

Sorry i'm going to be abit picky. Getting this for a girl happy.gif, so need some help. Especially with design

In order of importance.
1) Design, either red or white
2) Comfortable
3) Sound Quality.

I'm looking for the DJ style headphones, no preference on Open/closed back. And must at least cover the ear. Something like the ATH-SJ5..... around that size bah.... Also, would prefer a brand that i could order online, i'm over in the uk here....

my budget is cap around RM 200-250ish.....

I have an iPod Touch, but I guess I'll listen more on my PC.
Mainly music, occasionally for movies, but not that important.
Mostly .mp3, but considering to rip ALACs for my favourite bands off their albums.
Rock, alternative rock, not very heavy rock.
Headphones.

Budget probably around RM100~150. Anything less than RM200.

First time posting in Audiophiles, read up some stuff but it's kinda confusing.

Oh yeah, and it must be available in local stores, no imports or online shipping. 

Not exactly an audiophile over here, just hoping to optimise my money spent.

All recommendations are appreciated. biggrin.gif

here's some recommendation then...

iems
1. Crossroad Mylar Bijou #3 RM170

2. Audio TEchnica FW3 RM150
