not necessary but will benefit from it...

nope W1000 would need amp 2 sound much better than ES10... n BTW ES10 nc ability still wont beat the likes of M50 coz of the design difference since M50 is a full sized closed can IMO...

Added on March 21, 2010, 1:22 pmclosed can means the cans face is closed no ventilation whatsoever if u google AD series can u'll see the difference between open n closed cans
i dont think it can close ur whole ear since it's supraural design but since it used same driver diameter as A n AD series it might be slightly bigger than previous ES series... maybe can close if someone have small ears...

i can say FC700 is quite great 4 the pric... juz need 2 find a puch or case 4 travelling purposes..

FC700 will suit u the best IMO since it's portable n a closed back cans... n 4 the bass n clarity i don't think it lose 2 PX100 mayb even better...

not really sure bout dat but moniqee still owns it if im not wrong...

if u get it from LYP i think its around RM230...

Philips SHP2500 is around dat price if i'm not mistaken...

Low Yat Plaza.... of course with warranty from AT malaysia...
or u might wanna wait 4 jaben 2 open this 3rd of april...

hmm.. not really sure which one coz i'm not from kl and dat info is juz something i read here somewhere b4... why dont u wait 4 Jaben it's opening in SS15 subang this 3rd i think they might hav it... try ask yuheng if they hav in stock...

nice... how's the environment there... un lucky i'm 2 far away 2 come... definitely gonna drop by this august 2 buy few things n be poisoned...

Do u like or PL50? what kind of improvement dat u woul like 2 have from upgrading?

from ur budget i suggest getting a better ones... Eterna r quite good but take note it's a totally different soundsig compared 2 PL50...
it's 4 basslovers... other IEM's u can look at such as RE0 been said it got the analytical sound emphasizing in mids n treble...

about the circumaural thing dat usually happens on closed cans where the face is totally closed no ventilation whatsoever...
even the better quality got the same problems but they r better in terms of sound quality wise and materials used on the unit...

can't comment much on the eterna coz i juz read reviews bout it...
i've been craving 4 RE0 long time ago but didn't mange 2 own it n nowadays my wishlist is expanding n i think i'll go 4 the essentials 1st since i own the TF10 ad...

about external soundcard or DAC it depends on personal opinion some might say it worth it some might say it's juz a minor improvement 4 the price...
so it depends on u... if ur afraid of the outcome better try it 1st b4 deciding...
IMO it's worth it especially listening from PC n laptops... 2 get a much more cleaner sound where inside there's a lot of other things going on n can add unwanted noise 2 ur music...
no comment on E5 but if ur using with a PC i suggest u go 4 a DAC instead...

if u don't like the effect of the closed cans u can also opt 4 open cans where mostly r comfortable surely no sweat problems... juz the isolation is not up 2 par on wat closed cans can offer...

sorry go 4 a DAC/amp combo.... u can use it with ur PC as a DAC n amp or amp only 4 portable players(the portable DAC/amp)...
DAC process ur digital file means ur music files from digital signal 2 analog signal which u hear as music...
amp amplifies the signal...

4 easy understanding DAC is like an external soundcard but it's dedicated 4 music compared 2 soundcards where u hav more functions such as support 5.1 system...

IMO 4 u now the best thing is go 4 an IEM u like with ur budget... then slowly aqcuire the funds 2 get an entry level DAC/amp...
or keep ur PL50 4 now n use the budget 2 get a DAC/amp but this one u got 2 try the unit 1st... i suggest u go 2 Jaben shop 2 audition a DAC/amp they hav in store so u know what it can do 2 ur music n wether it's worth ur cash or not...

do u mean how 2 go by car or public transport?

u can go 2 KL sentral take a Komuter from there n stop at Subang Jaya station... from there u can take a bus, taxi or walk it's not 2 far coz i tried b4...
here i dunno how 2 explain but u can ask people around Subang Jaya station how 2 get 2 SS15 Asia Cafe most people should know this i think...
if u need a map of the shop in SS15 somone posted it in Jaben Malaysia thread here...

2 use ur cans with in-flight entertainment... the jack is different from normal so if u don't hav these u hav 2 use the headphones they provide...
