Hi all... tried to find comparison between Audio Technica AD-300 and Philips SHP8900 but cannot find what needed... please help to compare for listening to music at home with mp3 player... which is better and more comfortable? Thanks!
*
can't say for philips .. but ad300 for me is both damn comfy, no fatigue issue and much much better sounding than any cans i listened/have before this. remember also ad300 is open cans so if going for privacy, a big no no. hehe.

closest good sounding IEM category you can get (but have to add like RM10 or so) is SoundMagic .. RM60 for both ; either PL11 or PL20 ..

hey guys, i'm considering an upgrade in the next few weeks (or months)... currently aiming at the Alessandro MS1i... i already have an AD500 for soundstage and comfort... so now i'm aiming for something which really shines on the mids... the vocals... and hopefully something which is easy to drive, and sounds great when plugged in directly to my onboard desktop audio.. do u guys have any other suggestions for a budget of RM400+? bass isnt my priority... and i'm listening to rock and vocals... thanks in advance! notworthy.gif

uiyoo upgrade dy aa danny ? tongue.gif

if aiming at Alessandro MS1i, then get Alessandro MS1i lor!

nanti later at nite cannot sleep, keep thinking about it ..

like Nike said, "Just do it, just do it do it baby~"

lol

Right.. so the earphones that came with my sansa clip plus's left earpiece wont work anymore.... Just worried that if I buy the Soundmagic PL21's it'll be the same... Any reassurance anyone can give me? T_T

Oh, and can anyone give me tips on how to prevent this thing from happening again?
*
Last time remembered ur using it for competition (running is it ?)
if that's the case with the sweat and so on, apa earphone/IEM pon I don't think will last except those waterproof type but SQ dunno how that unit will performlah ...

if the earphone degraded because of other reason please state it here-lah and we will try to give recommendation as to our best abilities.

Well it was actually a chess competition, but I jog alot so yeah running i guess..

I'm dont exactly throw it across my room or anything but I tied the wires into a knot so the wire becomes shorter.. then after a few hours I got this problem.. Any correlation?

SQ5 good meh? I heard it and it sounds bad to me. I thought it was some cheap audio technica models until I saw the price tag which shocked the hell outta me.

dunno bout the sounds but i also thought the price is not that high-lah.

another question... is Audio Technica AD300 good without amp?
*
It's more than good .. it's superb~
even without amp it already delivers superb clarity and soundstage.
tested it with a few amp* myself but liked it as it is more than with an amp

*in my defense the amp i tested with was of normal or 'ok' only quality not any high end ones
*which in many sifu cases wouldn't even consider that kind of thing an amp .. i guess ? tongue.gif

anyway like moniqee says, it's definitely easy enough to drive and haven't encountered yet situation in which it needed to be amp-ed up.


but in all honesty, these few days, I'm putting aside my ad300 for my stock KSC75.
hahahaha!

@moniqee, soulone

wahh i really feel like buying ald ler.... soundstage is wat im looking for.. but if there's bass it will be a plus point... cz im quite a basshead myself..

hehe.. other than AD300? is tat the best 1 for the price range?
*
hehe .. i guess that's about it on the price range ? actually ad300 is around RM2xx ohh .. but worth every penny ...
if soundstage is your concern AD series shud be it.
both me and moniqee is getting an ad700 actually but that's a bit out of your price range rite ?

can always go for KSC75, can vouch for its SQ but soundstage? it being a clip on and all ..


and don't just feel, PM the dudes selling ad300 already. tongue.gif
i got mine from the forum too, if wanna recommendation PM ya. biggrin.gif

Come grab my atrio m8 xD Isolation is gd , eeasy to put on tongue.gif Got Double flange, triple flange will b too big for this IEM =.= It's one of the best IEM around Rm500-600 range. Alternatively, go check for Phonak Audeo PFE 112.

Hardly see any other earphone below RM300 offer similar quality ..

yups bro .. hafto agree .. for entry level .. you can't get sound like that with that kind of price ..
if you love it .. why don't you just get another one from the bulk .. even with the new price ..
i myself have a spare for the KSC in case the current one is spoiled .. smile.gif

@adrian
wow bro . if ur already asking for the w-series, then you just need to confirm which one suite your sound signature and then decide.

as per advice from other old timer, those woody can really does need proper amp to let it shine .. so remember that your cost would look something like

cans + amp + DAC (maybe?) = RMxxxxx

of course you wouldn't want to settle with mediocre amp/dac summore so, there you go .. hope that helps ya smile.gif
