Spending RM500+ for a headphone is overkill for me as I only use it during weekend night, when I'm playing games, watching movies or listening to music. So, I would like to spend <RM200. Here's my criteria:

- Less than RM200
- Balance between treble & bass, as I always play games/watching movies and listening to music.
- Don't like headphone with "light" sound without the bass.
- I'm using Audigy2 ZS without any headphone amp.
- Would like headphone or full size headphone, not ear bud.

I wonder if Philip HP805/895 or Koss Porta/SportaPro can fit in or not? or am I hoping for too much?

Please provide me with some guidances. Thanks.

Hi all, Just wanted to ask if there's any recommendations for a sealed headphones? My price range is between RM 200-Rm300.

I currently have a AKG K 24 P & Koss KSC 75 to use it at home or quite places. Need a sealed one so that people can't hear what i'm listening when i'm out.

Thanks in advance. Newbie here.

I find it hard to enjoy good music when im outdoor. the only way is probably with really good IEM, but they cost alot and the sound quality is often, I belive, worth less than half of what you'd pay for it. I had owned 3 portable phones so far, senn px100, senn pmx60, and ety er6. the er6 cost rm400+ retail, and to me, the overall sound quality doesn't worth more than RM100+. I prefer the px100 over the er6 anytime. the px100 is around rm200 or less, they are good for portable use, and they have the higher-end senn house sound but unfortunately, they sound like crap when you compare them to the grado sr60, which should be around RM100 more than the px100 (still within your budget). the px100 is open, but they don't leak much. I've read comments on people saying that they "leak like hell" and apparently, they havent heard anything that really "leaks like hell" (e.g. senn hd500, 570, grados, and etc)

the px100 or koss ksc75 should be good enough for portable use, and within your price range. they leak, but usually people around you would only be able to hear some "hissing sound", that's all. you can literally hear "lyrics" with the hd570 laugh.gif. unless you intend to spend alot of a good pair of IEM, these should be adequate.

EDIT: wait, I jsut re-read your post and u say u are using the ksc75 @ home? heh....get yourself a pair of grado sr-60 with that budget and bring the ksc75 out.

^ go see Snufkin, he's on Head-Fi... he has a shop selling headphones/amps and other related equipment somewhere in Leederville.

I can get the address for you if you want. He'll let you demo the stuff, that really helps you decide for yourself what may suit you or sound best.

I am using HP895 right now, listening to all kind of music...except the trash, death metal..phew..
Anyway...frankly I don't like big headphone, and the HP895 quite big...XXL..
Sound wise...its really additives...there are time that I feel I wanna sell my headphone just because it looks bulky, but after listening through some song..like Siti Nurhaliza..just like she's singing infront of me, same goes to Natalie Imbruglia-Counting down the Days..and the pop rocks sound of Kenny Loggins, Danger Zone soundtrack from Top Gun..oh no I can't sell it. Its shine even drives by Audigy ZS.
Previously I had a philips headphone that only cost around rm55, and after 5 years of trashing it, and its a good upgrade though.
So I really recommend the 895 for that easy feel sound. Beware that the bass not so deep, so trance song so-so only.
Cheers!

I can say buying a headphone is more difficult than buying a 2.1 speaker in term of testing. most of the shop don't provide a sample headphone for you test the sound and also its comfort level. So need to rely on the shoppers hearsay.
I bought my HP895 below RM200.00 after reading the review in the mikechai's bulk order thread. He offer various model of headphone under Philips brand name. As I'am using HP895, and I am listen more on pop and slow rock, maybe it suits your preference.
Go and check it out.

Hi,

I just got a Creative N200, and listen to classic rock, like hendrix, led zep, cream, satriani, etc. I would like a decent earphone with a 20 -20000 Hz response range, and i saw a philips sbc he 571 for 60 bucks. I'm on a low budget, and anything which is better than the standard creative ones would do for me. I'm not a disco/technohead or whatever, just need to hear the instruments clearly.

Thanks!
