The best is always head to Jaben and let your ears decide for you

Hmmm the AKG 701 is still working kinda decent unamped. But for a good a amp he'll probably need to spend at least RM700 for a Crossroad Edge, or probably a Creek OBH-11. But amp is kinda good investment if you wanna upgrade your cans in the near future.

Haha, IMO, unless it's xenohawk's unit that's malfunctioning, otherwise, for reasons quite unknown, I still insist that you not to grab the 701 xD

please for mp3 usage only:
choice: sennheiser cx550 or cx880
search around in web page dint have much review on cx880

It's Sennheiser new products, that's why you're not able to find lots of reviews about it. It looks nice tho

cannot afford the AKG K242HD i think xD

see mayb later go jaben nose around lol

test test abit, the AKG 701 need amp? o.O have to spend extra 700ish. . . lol

U serious about the 701?
If u don have proper amping then u better don get it.

hmm from the looks of it no amp = bad for the 701. . .

guess i'll go try it out.

don't think i can splash so much in such a short time.

so i guess its back to AD700?

how does the AD700 fare without an amp?

Ya. Ad700 is ok without amp, amp is optional but amping it will defenitely have improvement.

d AKG K242HD is much cheaper than the K701, within ur budget & no need ext amp 2 drive

Crossroads - Quattro/Bijou
Hippo - Shroom/VB

i'm planning to get 1 of these IEM~
i'm using to play music & movies most the time~

which is the best for pop,rock, & maybe some jazz,classic,vocal
& action movies?? bass is a bonus if possible on any1 of it~

any others better IEMs that's around 200MYR??

i have problems with the hippo vb. left ear canal always got pressure inside whenever i plug in my IEM. right ear canal doesn't have this kinda problem. how ah?

our ears are not equally the same same size...
i have trouble with my left side of my ears while the right is just fine...
custom sleeve should settle the problem....

althou custom sleeve is a bit expensive than hippo vb
or u could try different tips... maybe u can use smaller tips for ur left ones

cannot eh. i tried all my sleeves..even sony 1s... left ear still the same...couldn't solve my problem

Try Comply, Custom sleeve, hmm the price would probably the same as the hippo if not more expensive xD

Try using different sized tips for left and right.

Comply sleeve? have to order from yuheng again, i think this time no free postage liao

i tried already. tried the small 1, too small, it'll come off. so tried the medium 1, pressure still inside.

Hi. Can please recommend me any in ear monitor headphone?
Main purpose gaming and music, more on gaming.
Budget <rm350.
Or any in ear headphone + amp with the same budget.
Previously owned Audio Technica ATH-M30, want the same tightness.
Thanks.

Try twisting it a bit as you insert the VB slowly, that's what I did As for the burn-in, I ran mine for almost 100hrs ady... Only with normal music though, and on normal listening volume.

wats ur source?
