Been so long time never post in LYN..

I'm here for 2 thing, since they is so many people telling me how good the Superlux headphone is, as per described from lowyat forumer here. so i m so curious and have a look here...

1. Modded KSC75 do not sound near to Ms1i...That is a fact, i do really respect the effort contributed by PcWorks, my closed partner, However, i need the speak the truth here, Modded KSC75 have very good transparency, it refined the details from stock cable and make the sound very polite and if you give it a serious amp, it sound seriously good notworthy.gif thumbup.gif . However, i personally find that MS1i is sound better anyhow. as from the music presenation, and from the sound seperations, and from any other aspect, i find that modded ksc75 is not near to Ms1i in term of sound presentation and performances. However, from value wise, KSC75 rocksss rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

2. Also, for Superlux. I dont think it beat Ms1i as well doh.gif So sorry i m not disrespect of any fans here. I try most of the model, maybe all of the model... The initial point is not passed. It do not sound analog for me, it is far too digital for music presentations. The separations and detail presentation is awesome no doubt, but it is just very digital, Making your movie/music sound very dry...As such, personally, i will not rated that to be anyhow as good as ms1i, or even grado sr60i. At least the accuracy point is there.

So sorry, i really didnt mean to offense the brand and the fans....just say some idea on what i have heard.

in respond to the highlighted part.
non offense taken.
in fact that is the truth. i myself also said that in post inside jaben thread.
ksc75 after recable is just bring out the smoother sound and better bass compared to stock ksc75.
but in term of bass quantity, and even attack / energy. ksc75 can't actually fight what the ms1i can provide. this is limitation of the driver itself.

but some people might prefer ksc75 than ms1 because lesser bass actually give less sound pressure to ear, not so brutally power, cheaper, portable, more comfort to wear.. ect ect.. based on personal preference.
and i will agree to say that ksc75 recable is more practical to be use as very portable version of ms1i.
but if judging just the sound itself.
ksc75 is kinda hard to be compare to MS1i. and proper amping of ms1i can give  very very high power output with remarkable speed with sufficient quantity of weight.

anyway. both ksc75(recable / stock) and MS1 (recabled  / stock / woodify) were available for user to test out in jaben.
it is best to test it with your own ear. as different ppl might have different preference in choosing the headphone.

Thanks dude, that is exactly what i wan to tell....It is just so hard for comparison.....both are on different categories and different sound. As such. We strongly do not agree on any point of equation made below :

Modded KSC75 = Ms1i < Superlux HD681/other model

Added, both headphone rocks..KSC75 and Ms1i. either for value or sound... biggrin.gif biggrin.gif notworthy.gif thumbup.gif

The fact that it's RM130 is enough indication that it's not going to beat MS1 or any big name brands even with all the mods in the world. Though, I did wish that it would. =P
For what it's worth, it's a good entry level HP... especially for those who wants to start modding stuff. It's just so freaking easy to mod and have some DIY fun! I don't even need to drill holes for dual entry recabling.

That sounds correct biggrin.gif notworthy.gif
That will be the attitudes that we hold for years. We do not mean to destroy or offense any brand here. Just we need to express our opinion neutrally notworthy.gif
