Sounds like a fun headphone for only Rm130. Plus the mods that one can apply... Truly a kaboom for your buck.

Might wanna buy one to play play.. Haha..

lol whats with this sudden craze of superlux sweat.gif
wondering if you guys actually genuinely wanted to own one.. or like my pal here who actually bought it just to poison others laugh.gif
*
I genuinely wanna own one. Coz lately I'm quite into DIY, and there seems to be a lot of interesting mods for this model. Also to fill in the boredom while saving up for HD650. If can poison my gf, also not bad, haha...

@kain.. this is superlux has a very diff sig as of HD650.. scared that if you got used to it, you will find it hard to change :/
in my opinion it sounds pretty close in between the beyer dt440 and sr60 .. tho i got a friend who was more impressed with superlux than the MS1
*
I see. Thanks for the advice. No harm trying it smile.gif

Yup, quite interesting concept to drive 3 headphones simultaneously....

And I'm still wondering how can I get my hands on a pair of HD668B

you can look at the bulk trade zone.. there is a forummer running a bulk purchase for the superlux headphones

Thanks for the info. Bro Hitman66 just tipped me off just now as well ;P

Anyway, I just paid for the HD668B. Hope to do head-to-head comparison when this arrives along with my Sennheiser HD650 end of this year. Stay tuned for impressions and hopefully reviews wink.gif

oh gosh how I could miss that.Thanks!

About "668B versus HD650" thing,sadly to say HD650 will win the match against it.HD650 was wider soundstage,better mids and doesn't suffer from too much simbilance that 668B has currently. wink.gif
*
How about price per performance bro? Any comments..?

I bought the 668B out of fun, coz I thought I should try other brands of headphones other then Sennheiser only (currently own Senn IE8, HD202 and Klipsch Custom 2).

But I have high hopes for the 668B coz headfonia did mention that

QUOTE
All in all, the HD668B is a kind of headphone that “wows” you the first time you hear it, particularly because of two things: its exceptional sound and its price tag. Compared to the Alessandro MS1i, the HD668B sounds clear, spacious, everything is well-placed, and more natural, while MS1i sounds compressed, right-on-the-face, and not as clear. The MS1i just doesn’t have the HD668B’s impressive balance, acoustic imaging, and clarity. And at a mere $30, this headphone definitely competes with those that are priced two or three times as much, in terms of price-to-performance ratio.


Although I've never heard the MS1i before, but reviews had been good. To be up against the MS1i and still recieve praises, I don't think it will be too much of a let down at RM150.

HD668b sure kena pwnz... 10-15x price difference leh. But would be fun to see how close (most probably how far) the Superlux stacks against HD650.
Mod the 668B and and compare.

Yeah, that's what I thought too.. It would be fun..

And the mods projects would be added fun wink.gif

Just recieved my HD668B today. Thanks bro trio for the bulk! Will be putting in some impressions later when I'm free.

Too bad I can't compare it with my HD650 as it is still stuck in UK. My bro cancelled his trip back for hols :'(
