Fischer Audio FA-004.
Although for some people it's almost supra-aural. If you have smallish ears they are circum-aural definitely. For some they have to fold their earlobes a bit to get them inside.  laugh.gif  I guess Russian ears are a tad bit small then the rest of us.  tongue.gif

Otherwise, what calmshot just said, Shure SRH440.  biggrin.gif

They're about rm 260 at an apple store. I saw them at iStudy Subang Parade/Sunway Pyramid and really tempted to get them myself. Oh when i tried them myself, they are completely over my ears haha.
Also, i'm using the Shure SRH440 as well and they're great! Try checking that out.

Oh hey there. Was the 3m cable a bother at all? biggrin.gif
I passed it up because the Grado because SR60i has a shorter cable and easily modded. I've read somewhere that there is a 1.2-1.3? metre cable for the FA-004 but found no info on FA's website.

I have a Grado SR60i and it has a 2m long cable, and it's longer than I am tall by 25cm.

I read a review a while back that it has a 1.25m cable. When I asked it has a 3m cable. Then many says that the FA-004 is a budget portable headphone. I'm rather confused.
But mods on almost any headphone is easily done. Maybe change the cable once warranty is out? brows.gif

2 meters.. shocking.gif how exactly do you keep the wires.. er.. tame? or do you not travel/commute with them?
yeah, was thinking that eventually i'd wanna learn how to change the cable.. but i'm also quite ganas and clumsy, so there's a 50/50 chance that i'll kill it instead tongue.gif

You aren't supposed to use SR60i outside as it's open cans. Any headphones that is not labeled/marketed as portable generally have more than 1m cable length anyways.

Someone else can in this forum, who provides re-cabling services. I am thinking of getting my SR60i recabled with silver cables which is 1.3m long.

Something that produces really good sound quality, for trance and metal.
Anything below RM700, full size headphones.
Any idea? cool.gif

PcWorks...and if I recall correctly i_djoel2000(or something)....the latter has a sales thread about interconnects. I asked him about recabling my SR60i, and I think the price is reasonable.
