just got HD381F last evening. even though still not burn-in enough, i think i've upgraded my IEM even though this one cost only 1/4 from my old one, Fischer Audio Eterna.

superlux rocks!!!!!!!!!!

best bang for price

Hmmm....was thinking of getting the Fischer Audio FA-004.
What's the Superlux equivalent you guys think?

My god superlux is starting to kill so many big player in the field. Many will not be happy about this.

Superlux kenot leh... veli the digital sound.
Still lack certain refinement.

*but some already 'bueh syok liao'. Aiyoh... RM150 punyer barang, how to compare to 4-5 hundred or RM1.5k punya gear? Why so sked and closed minded?

(what I meant was: Superlux still lack some refinement that much more expensive earphones have, but why feel threatened? Different stroke for different folk. Different budget, different phones mah.)

Speaking of which... time for some Noryn Aziz eargasm.

I haven't listened for myself, but judging from what people are saying, for their price they do the job quite well. I say they're on the right track in bringing good audio for the masses. Only time will tell if they will continue and succeed.

well, it all depends on the person preference.
as for me, i find that my RM60 HD381F sound way better than my old Fischer Audio Eterna version 1(sold already), which got 5 star diamond award by ClieOS dude.
different people different opinion. and yeah, different budget too~

Added on March 13, 2011, 11:21 pmSuperlux has been around for many years liao loh. Only recently has the consumer market start to take a notice at it.
They've been manufacturing inexpensive studio/recording mics, monitor speakers, amps, headphones for entah berapa lama dah. They haven't really cared much for the usual consumers... that's why its designs are usually caplang ones... hah hah! (And that's why it's still pretty affordable)

If Superlux made its stuff with as much care and flair as the big brands, we wouldn't be able to buy it at these rock bottom prices anymore.

they need only Rm100 plus to make sth of 80 to 90 percent performance of DT770. I think if they double the cost to RM300, they willl be able to make something almost 95 percent performance of HDHD650, K701 etc.

guys I just found out a bad news regarding HD381 :S disturbing indeed

hard to say.. cuz to me only 681 and 668 sounded good, and the other products are rather average, some i couldnt even bear listening a few seconds.
both the 681 and 668 are like miracle products i would say but i wouldnt go kick the big shots in the leg as i dont think the performance is that high as we all think it is. the difference in performance is actually rather big after a little analytical listening. (mainly electro and percussion tracks as there's alot of "hidden" details)
but heck if you need a RM100 and not wanting bloated sounding cans then superlux is the way

*edit* oh yea.. and the tests is mainly on details level and not sense of taste

You suddenly decided to give out free Superlux headphones?
That'll definitely destroy any competition.

Yeah. Even for RM300 if it could match(or beat) the performance of say....Alessandro MS1i, it'll always be a bargain.

Or maybe they intentionally set their limits to those prices, see how far sound quality can be pushed within that price limit.
