Generally Alessandro's are tamed versions of Grado headphones

Grado had more bass and treble while Alessandro have less bass and treble.
that's what most people said

So basically you get a "fat" sound coming out of them, mid-centered I mean?

Yes I currently own a MS1, I think it's about 5 years old now (my faithful waifu )


Yes you could say that, they are more laidback in comparison to the Grado counterparts but they still are very fun and forward sounding cans

Ooh, liking it more and more. Just what I want basically.
If in 2 months stock is ready I'm gonna jump in and buy an MS1i.

Keep your fingers crossed
I'll go out on a limb and give a prediction that they'll be in stock in May

btw, have you auditioned an MS1 before?

Yea it's best to test first before getting an MS-1i

give Grado SR-80i a try as well... who knows maybe you like an extra tint of bass and treble

How can I audition, I'm at Sabah.
But I don't mind its drawbacks, like poor isolation and stuff. Having a DDM with its massive bass and rich mids but recessed treble, didn't mind that the slightest bit of that sound sig(in fact my favourite sound sig). Not much of a critical listener either. Just wanting something that I can slip on my head in a split second, hit play on my source and start head-banging or doing air guitar poses.

I know I've requested bright IEM before, but it seems that vocal and electric guitars(guitars in general) are more my thing these days. I would like good treble, but I don't mind them being recessed.

Schiit just got in!

Ooo, where did you bought it?
We shall have these babies soon.

Direct from US lol.
Avoided the tax by under declaring somehow.

I hope Jaben can be the official distributor of Schiit in Malaysia lol. I'm pretty sure plenty of the folks would want to try them out.

2nd that, I wanna try their Asgard and Valhalla models
@awyong: How much did you pay for the Lyr?

449USD + 60USD for handling fees etc.

Hey Jaben, when are you guys getting stock for ATH m50

Getting my pay next tues hoping I can get one asap XD

if i'm not wrong, yuheng told me that M50 will be coming next monday, but it's limited unit, whoever aiming for that must be fast!

i got a lot of catch up to do....

Heard that shure se215 just got into Jaben! May i know the retail price pls?

What...IT HAAAAASSS?!?!!

EDIT: OMG just found out at Headjam that it'll be RM368........cheaper than the MS1i.
Decisions decisions. If I choose the SE215, I can buy them tomorrow.

EDIT: Nah...MS1i it is..... Too much hassle of putting it in my ear and also questions about the detachable cable's durability.

Hahah, hard decision to make tuner? We can make it a bundle and let you have both.

Hmmm.. SE215... :3 Tempting, but not now. Hahaha. Hopefully I'll have a chance to give it a try though.

Nope.
I may change my mind again(I've only been indecisive when it comes to audio ). May be getting an SR60i instead if stock is readily available.
