QUOTE(davidbilly87 @ Aug 15 2011, 12:22 PM) - My Rig: Phone - Motorola Atrix 3.5mm - Type of usage: Fully Music only - File format: MP3 320 , AAC - Music genre: something near to Mariah Carey - Budget: RM150 - Headphone/ earphone type: Earphone - Other requirements (if any): with mic and in ear type , 2nd hand earphone also can Thanks guys , can recommend me any earphone that fulfill my requirement? and also 2nd price  Just like other non-iOS phone users, the choice of earphones with inline mic is limited to the standard units that came with the phone, will have a solution next month with the FiiO LU1. This adaptor will allow at least the mic function of most iOS based head/earsets to be used on non-iOS phones.

I saw several posts asking recommendations for gaming headset with mic. Try asking it here http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/866450 - Hardware Forum. You'll be more likely to find what you want compare to here.

The AKG GHS-1.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask a question ... but are there audiophiles that favour earbuds over IEMs? I used to have a pair of Apple IEM's (I know, not exactly of audiophile standards), but they used to irritate me a lot. I love headphones ... but I don't want to bring headphones around.
Audiophile earbuds, got?

I don't know whether is it because of its shape or that my ears are oily. I don't want to spend money again only to realise that I REALLY do not like IEMs...

QUOTE(RitzyHoke @ Aug 16 2011, 06:56 PM) er ... 100~200? not much ._. you mean the Apple ones? or ... RM100~RM200 is a decent budget, especially recently I've reviewed a newcomer earbud which goes around that price. What about the type of music you listen to?

Oh wait, earbuds are those that just sit on your ear right? Used to have Apple IEMs, currently using Apple Earbuds ... prefer the earbuds. The pair that I have. Music ... mainstream ones I guess. Ranges from 30 Seconds to Mars (rockish?) to George Benson's Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You ... heh
