Hi guys, i'm looking for a headphone with the budget of rm200 - rm300

The music that i listen to is ranging from eminem to linkin park to mariah carey and everything in between

currently have a phillips shp2700 which umm, dsnt satisfy me me at all sonically after having my sound magic pl-50 iem

i still do use my iem but would prefer a headphone as it's easy to put on n take off

any suggestions? prefer one that has better sq than the pl-50

p/s: other significant preferences are wide sound stage for the background music, and good bass for some rap rock thumping as well as clarity for me to jizz over mariah's voice n most importantly, gotta be comfy on the ear n head for long hrs tongue.gif

Guys besides an amp, i'm also looking for a music player to use for my Shure SRH440.
Definetely needs FLAC support as my current iPod nano doesn't support FLAC. and it's only 8gb so even if i convert to ALAC i can't put a lot of songs.

Can someone help me decide which of these are the best?
-Cowon S9
-Cowon J3
-Samsung P3
-Samsung Galaxy Player


Currently leaning towards S9 but not sure..

It depend on you actually, all three brand with different model provide different sounding.
but audio technica have more models are more in Audiophile series such as AD series, Air series, Their CKM IEM series, Woody series...

Looking for recomendation of 3 earphone

1) Normal fotopia type earphone
- Prefer Sennheiser
- Budget below RM400
- Good clarity and extra bass
2) Noise Canceling Earphone, compact type
- budget below rm500
- Good sound quality n bass also
- filter up the noise at least 80%

note: I'm used to be SONY NC22 user before, the noise canceling was quite amazon, but unfortunately the clarity and bass is very below expectation, compare to my sub RM100+ earphone this NC22 really disappoint me.

Now SONY had come out NC33 with 90% canceling instead of 75% from NC22, i wonder how's the sound quality?

other than SONY NC33, what are your other recomendation?
*
1) Only sennheiser???

Sennheiser HD228, HD438, HD518

2) u can try to use the ear foam >>> Comply Tips

If really wanna noise cancellation u can try search:

Denon AH-NC600

QUOTE(ic3rock @ Apr 11 2011, 10:29 AM)

Hi,
I'm looking for a headset (preferably headset, unless really no choice, then I will opt for headphone) which will be use mainly for gaming.
Since I doubt I'll ever buy a sound card, is USB headsets/headphone a better option for me?
Anyways, my budget is RM200 to RM500..
Thanks in advance!
*
if you get an USB headsets, then you only able to use with your pc sad.gif

if you get the 3.5mm headset, at least you can use with your pc, mp3 player, phone n bla bla bla
future investment with the soundcards still able to use it with the current headset what biggrin.gif

isn`t "headset" same as the headphone?
or headset is the headphone came with the mic? lol
sorry for my dumbness smile.gif

Hi guys,

not too sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm looking for jogging, behind-the-head earphones. Wonder if you guys have any recommendations?

Budgets running from 100-200, but will definitely consider anything you guys reco as long as its worth it. Cheers!

Forgot to mention that I'm already wearing glasses...  sweat.gif

did a bit of research and it what do you guys think about this one:
Sony MDR-G75LW (cord is retractable)
Sennheiser PMX70
Koss KSC75 (but not sure about clipon as will the ears start to hurt? Tried a clipon once and only lasted 15 mins for me.)

Hello All

My baby AKG K701 is broken so I have an excuse to get a new headphone and I like to try something other than AKG although I love them so much. 

I listen to classical, symphonies, quartets etc, so sound stage and quality are very important.  I like a neutral sound, that produces sound as they should with no bias to bass or treble etc. 

I have my eye on the ATH-W1000X but appreciate that expensive headphone does not mean it will suit my taste.  Just wondered if anyone has any ideas? 

Many thanks.

PS - I posted something in the AT thread, but thought I might get some other ideas here as that thread is dedicated to AT.
*
tht a sad case for your baby akg K701 sad.gif

you can try the model below which is the same range as the K701 as well

Sennheiser HD650
Beyerdynamic DT880 Pro
Audio Technica AD1000 RPM
Audio Technica W1000X
Audio technica A1000X
Denon D2000, D5000

the sound signature might different from K701, but still handle well with your music preference smile.gif

Thanks for the recommendations. I don't think Sen is right for me as the sound is a bit dark.

One reason I am a bit reluctant on the 701 now is because I read current production of the cans is different from the first generation, which is the one I've got. The sound changed for the current gen.

Also, other than some tweaks and cable, is there anything else to the q 701? I read a few comparisons and some suggested that the extra money is not worth it.

Many thanks.
*
then u might try the HD650 + "Symphonica" replacement cables~

it would be awesome biggrin.gif

no more dark signature xD
