Hi Guys,

I am noob in Earphones, so i need advice and some clarifications from pros here, i wanted to get a pair of ear phones for my mp3 player, budget RM200~300, i am looking for clarity, and of coz.. if comes with good bass it will be really good.

I have been reading this thread from page 1, and i find that the brand you guys were discussing are realy different from the conventional brand like sony, philips, panasonic and bla bla...

i see from the reply, i think the one that siuts me is Shroom EB, but i am not sure of the performanc ecompare to the conventional brand like sony MDR-EX300SL/B, philips SHE-9800 (my fren intro) they are of the simillar price range.

can you guys tell me how well does these kinda brand work:
- Hippo
- AKG
- Shure
- Crossroad
- Sennheizer

would like to get a pair of good ear phones within my budget.

Thanks Guys!!

Sorry, can't help you explain other brands.
what i can share is,
I've been using Sony MDR-EX500SL.
The sound is Bassy, clear and warm.
been using it for 3 years now.

Have tried others but still prefer ex500. it is more comfy.

thanks for the explanation, wow tat 500 series cost rm300-400 range or did you get a cheaper source? mind to share?

i have a MDR-EX55SL, this ear phone is way too bassy, the bass is not solid, untill the extend i find it covers the treble/clarity of the singer voice. i am not sure if this happens to all the bassy earphones, as i only have this pair of ear phones right now.

I just bought a Shure SRH440 and I can tell you that if you're looking for ear phones for your portable mp3 player, Shure isn't the way to go. They're quite heavy and more for home use. I've also tried out Koss Portapro and a couple of AKGs and you should definitely consider these.

The AKG K420 is slightly above RM200 and is fantastic. The Portapro too. Contact E1-AKG (David Lee) for help with these. He's a really nice and helpful guy.

hi ooj,

thanks for your advice, but i prefer ear plugs, as i find head phone is a bit troublesome for me in the train or bus. have you ever come across any good ear plugs that positive comments on the clarity as well as the bass performance?
