QUOTE(wkh_frank @ Sep 27 2011, 11:12 AM) Thanks for the kind advice..."in yr face" I would gather as like having a small soundstage ? Would love to listen to it but as I'm from Kuching I can't really just drop by to Jaben soon...by the way where is Jaben located ? At Lowyat ? oh ok... sorry to hear that you re from kuching... forgive my dumbness lol.... in your face sound is likely what duh2k said but i'll exaggerate more... its like u are sitting infront of them and they play on a loud volume that kindda feeling.... everything feels forward... instrument imaging is little but u can still feel the separation left right front and back... details comes out especially when u listen to guitar flicking.... sometimes its a bit piercing but if u are a true rocker... it should be a bless lol.... and usually u can listen for sometimes before u feeling tired of all the details u have to endure.... hahahahaha... Sennheiser on the other hand are more laid back, a bit darkish and got very good soundstage.... i think this is more suitable for movies, games etc..... please correct me if im wrong here.... im not good with describing the sound...

Thank you  , your description of the sound I'll likely get from the Grados are very useful and most appreciated.... I'll try to listen to them on my next trip to make an opinion. You have a great day.

QUOTE(wkh_frank @ Sep 27 2011, 10:45 AM) I'm currently own a Sennheiser HD555 which i used to listen to pop, rock, orchestral movie soundtrack (tron, inception) on PC with creative HiFI card. Weekends I hook it up to my Yamaha or Denon amp for surround sound movie sessions. One great thing about the Senn is that its super comfortable to wear. I'm now thinking to upgrade but not sure if I should go for the HD650 or the Grado RS2i ( which I believe would sound different fr the Senn) I heard the Grados can be uncomfortable ( would i last thro a 2 hr movie session with it ? ) Has anyone has experience with it and really appreciate any valuable advise on which to pick..... You can also try Beyerdynamic DT880 and see whether it suits you. QUOTE(wkh_frank @ Sep 27 2011, 11:12 AM) Thanks for the kind advice..."in yr face" I would gather as like having a small soundstage ?

You are lucky, we have a dealer in Kuching and he carries some of our stock. His is located at OneJaya Mall. Guess he din do well with his advertising and not much people known him yea?

In KL service and Penang service maybe different cos different ppl working.
Like example in main branch is the boss working will give super good service cos his own business. But if penang branch just normal worker some will be rude or wat cos not his business. Just take salary only.
Jus sayin..

Thank you bro...great to hear you have a dealer in Kch save me some RM flying down to KL and maybe used that extra RM to get an amp I'll drop by to chk out the place with a few headphone lover buddies this weekend. By the way, I understand that the HD650 is 300ohm which I feel maybe my PCsound card will have problem rendering the quality needed. I've a collection of FLAC in my PC so can you recommend me a headphone amp around RM400.....I'm looking at the E7 or E9 but not sure which to go for ? Ths

Ths You can call our dealer Shao Lin there before you go. His stock might not as much as us thus some floats in and out. If you go for HD650 both amp unable to amp it sufficiently lo... must seek for a better matching one...

So only buy when the boss is there!!
