If you listen to rock, the Grado SR60i is great for it. Though the sibilance and low comfort level can put off some people. Also if you're going portable, these can barely do it. They leak sound into and out of the headphone. They're turned into miniature speakers. Trust me, they are that bad at isolation. Sound wise, if you don't mind the slight sibilance, it does deserve the many awards it has received.
Haven't tried the HD202.

some bass, but not too much. hahaha but my friend already has that soo yeah probably not that. i noticed though that it comes in 80ohm and 250ohm. what's the difference actually? (besides needing an amp)

wow those look nice. how much is that bro?

interesting! will definetely have a look.

thanks for the recommendations!
how bout cheap IEMs? wanna get for the girlfriend. hahah

1. Budget less than rm150 maybe? lol
2. Will be using with iPhone, so preferrably comes with control talk (volume control and mic)
3. She listens to mainstream stuff. Err Taylor Swift, John Mayer and stuff like that.
4. Source would be mp3s (120-320kbps)
5. If can, looks nice and sounds.. well worth the price i guess lol. you know what actually LOOKS is the priority because i don't think she cares that much on SQ. but if can get both good also, then i can pull her in the audiophile world.

hahariz posted a very informative link about that on the Beyer thread.

hmm very interesting! thanks for the link.

but yeah any IEM's worth recommending?

I did tried bose before and i never encounter such problems. Anyways not keen of NC btw. Most iem are really good in doing noise isolation.

can anyone recommend Headphone/iem with Good isolation and Bass about RM100-150
players : pc or handphone
source : 320k mp3/ flac
usage : movie or music (kpop/jpop/pop song)
ps: headphone is prefer portable or small size

Maybe shure srh550dj? Same price as srh440.

doesn't look sexy enough. lol. yeaah i care about how it looks as well hahahaha.

tq bro

sony piiq marqii not nice ar?

Wow, you are comparing two very different animals

One is open on ear the other is closed over the ears.

Are you taking your music every where you go including noisy environment

- Sennheisers PX-100 II
- Mostly for music purposes on my iPod, i travel around long journeys on buses, planes, trains
- Mp3
- Trance/house music most of the time, but i also have R&B hip hop, rock, but mostly Trance and house music
- Headphones, i dun like earphones...i feel uncomfortable wearing earphones though, and also, i SWEAT a lot, so yea, that is an issue as well.
- My budget? well, i'm actually planning to get Beats Pro/Studio by Dr. Dre, but if there are any better suggestions or something cheaper, i might as well take the opinion and check it out?

Created by DJs specifically for Trace / House music. The AiAiAi TMA-1. http://tma-1.com/. Google around, plenty of reviews!

the TMA is much better than the Beats, trust me. I was quite disappointed at the Beats actually. Had quite high hopes for it.

thx guys, will check it out....

shure srh440 and shure srh550dj and shure srh750dj


haha yup, beats headphone known for its brand only not sq. i dont know why ppl go crazy to buy those thing. the price not cheap summore.

what about the Marshall Major? my friend told me to get those, but i wanna know what's your opinion on this

Havent tried marshall headphone yet, but marshall are well known for it amp, mostly use in every jamming studio

It just looks REALLY good. Haha. But soundwise, quite disappointing.

Agreed. But Marshall is quite known for their quality (for amps) so maybe the headphones are just as good? Go audition them first!

Yeah, I'm planning to check them out later at the music store, hopefully there are demo sets for me to test out, the problem here, stores tend not to have demo sets for people to try it on, they are afraid that people might steal it...lol
