err.... go genting and do research?

oops

only white and blue?
if i wan black.. any nice earphones recommended?
around the same price and sound quality

im quite a noob in these things so i really need some help here

if she falls for that, i might as well ask her for the "budget" for the research, and get myself both the AD500 and the MS1i, or maybe AD900. anyway, wish u guys have lots of fun.

anyone ever tried on Sony MDR-XB300 ?? how's the sound and bass ??

had the opportunity to try it at sony style. it's muddy and the bass isn't that great. for max bass, go for the xb700. tight and heavy...

Hmm... guys, a noob question here if u dont mind... which will improve a headphone the most (assuming similar price and performance): Amp, DAC or soundcard?

Source is the most impt....if your source is crap, you can have the best headfi/hifi setup and it'll still sound like crap....rmb, garbage in, garbage out

dear fellow iem audiophiles
recently i am hunting a iem with budget RM100~150 for my gf
with condition comfort and relax, sound quality wise, since girls duno much about sound quality..

and currently i keeping my eyes for soundmagic, is it a good choice? if not, please guide me out from the bright side


*PL30 RM100
*bijou 3 RM170?
*Music Valley SP1 IEM RM180
*Mylarone LBi RM170
*SoundMAGIC PL21 RM100

How about PL50? Personally, i think that PL50 design looks much nicer than PL30. More elegant and tiny

my source are mostly FLAC, or lossless WMA. Only some hard to find songs are in MP3s 192-320kbps (lame). is it ok? i'm only using onboard soundcard though... the best i can afford currently is probably a Fiio E5 (even then i'd have to delay paying my college fees)

may i know what kind of songs do ur gf like....??? but seriously.. soundmagic is a good budget IEM IMHO... good build quality and the sound also quite nice.

any recommendation for other headphone ?? below 200 and great bass

A question to those alessandro's MS1i owners out there. Talk about mobility/portability, how do you guys bring about the headphone around in public with the thick cable dangling around? How do you guys prepare the headphone for a stroll around the city?

My first day has been okay so far, just that it has been a duty to actually make sure the cables are organised. Also, is the Alessandro's MS1i build a little bit shaky, it feels like i can easily move about the cans if you know what i mean?

im baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack. lol =_=

just sold off my m30 today. shit. then tried the hd228 @ machines again. saw the price tag wrongly. i thought it was rm218. but it was 289. sucks to be me.

now im hunting for another headphone , all i want is .. great sound and VERY COMFORTABLE for all ear sizes , comfortable enough to wear it for 4-6 hours...

tried HD228 but the soundstage aint that wide , the bass is fine tho , and a little bit more clarity compared to ath-m30 ...

heard alot of people talking about ad300~ad700 , but i dont know whether it suits me or not , im not gonna rush it again , wasted money already...

anyone knows where to test most of the "hot" audio technica or sennheiser headphones?

aiyah. so far no time go T_T no transport also

if u r serious abt not making mistakes again, make d trip, no other retailer can offer d chance 2 compare

I don't use open headphones in public, it's too noisy outside to be able to enjoy the from the headphone at all. I use canalphones instead and it's much more portable and easier to store in a small case.

The sound from a cheap canalphones are better than my ksc-75 too when i tried to use it outside since the canalphones isolates the ambience noise.

Remember to be careful when setting the volume, sometimes it's hard to realize you're using it too loud especially when there's ambience noises. Headphones/earphones are more damaging to the ear than speakers at the same volume.
