This review by the very critical iLounge basically sums up all.

We can’t speak for Dr. Dre’s personal sonic preferences, but his music sounded superior to our ears through the On Ear Wangs than his own Beats Solo HD. - Jeremy Horwitz ( Editor-in-Chief, iLounge )

Saw many recommendations for budget range rm400 Audio technica AD700, AKG k450, Denon ah-d1100, sen hd558, audio technica m50, shure srh840. wonder sony xb series are as good as those ? Jz wanna go for best sound quality. And does mdr v700 has the sound quality as those above ? Jz trying to compare. =]

Oh ya and i found that my mdr v700 makes me feel pain after wearing long hours because im with glasses.

Since you are wearing glasses, the K450 will do well for you among the others hmm.gif Here is an honest review on the AKG K450 from a fellow forumner on the 2nd last post on this thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/343375/+1600.

Do go to MacStudio at Bangsar Shopping Centre and ask for a demo, let your ears decide.

hey guys, is it worth to spend on beats by dr.dre solo hd,
to use with my ipod and laptop?
or i could get something much better within the budget?
i like the design but i didnt hear much good sound review from it.
+ im more toward sound quality,comfortable & portability.
do you think dr.dre solo HD can fulfill the requirement?
and do you know where can i try and test it?
been lurking around apple store but never see them put beats by dre to be test by customers.
will get this masterpiece soon when my allowance was given..

Here is the better option to the Dre's.

hi guys.. i not sure i post it at the right place or not.. sorry in advance..

btw.. i wanna ask any amp can use on iPhone?
as far as i know fiio E1, any other?
do the amp really change the sound quality? or it only bring out the sound louder??

You will definitely hear improvement on clarity with the E1. As for the E5 or E11, you will need the FiiO L3 LOD to hear the improved clarity with added bass boost.

the K450 looks sweet... may i know how would you describe its sound in your opinion?  smile.gif  thanks for your suggestion.
i'm not pro but for me (in my opinion, in case someone disagree), the bass is great, but sometimes overpowering the music and drowned details in the music... the most serious problem (for me) is the build quality, one side of the earphone come off last time and now that side is not producing any sound.
the metal casing is also too heavy and the part where the earphone casing and the cable connect together is not properly designed, not enough of ehat you call it, strain relieve?? a few quick pull and you might kill you bullet (again, in my opinion).
