The bass is what lacking in HP895, for me it sounds too sweet and harmonious, not really to punchy-..by compared it with Altec Lansing VS4121 and aego2. Maybe it cannot fulfill basshead requirement. But it balance it with a clear separation of instrument and clarity of vocal's singer. However, it still enough to enjoy trance song like alice deejay, kate ryan..etc.
Perhaps u can raed a review for HP890, the predecessor of HP895, which get a good review for it strong point in bass.

hi, can anyone recommend me a good earphone for around RM150 ?

i'm currenly targetting the SONY MDR-EX71 because of the good feedback of it's good bass (yes, i'm a bass head) but heard some complaint from the user that complain about the cord is too lengthy and the materials that used to protect the wire is too weak that even have a user tear it off within 2 days of using.

I'm going to pair it with my SONY D-NE900 Mp3/ATRAC3 Discman.
I'm currently pairing it with MDR-E805 which is totally crap.

Please advise....

thanks a lot

IMHO, maybe u can try find HP890 but the size so bulky. If another brand i'm not sure u can get from the budget.

I've got MDR-EX71s and I have to say the cord really is too long. I've been taking care of mine but the cord leading to the left driver has been damaged a bit, pinched in. They look nice and they sound great, but the earphones are a little delicate.

Good bass? The MDR-EX71s are more geared towards treble IMHO.. I find that you have to adjust them in your ears for a while before really getting the bass.

Can anyone recommend to me headphones for max RM250? I'm thinking of Sennheiser HD212 Pro, checking to see if I can order through Mediaplex in KLCC.

hmm...i thought i've been reading all the while ppl praising for the bass for EX71 ? and from what i've read is that the one that balanced in treble is EX81.

how is the quality difference EX51 and EX71 ? does EX51 offer any better bass or EX71? but EX51 seriously have even longer cord compared to EX71.... especially when you connect it to remote controller

*Edit, checked out SONY Style yesterday and found out that EX81 is available at malaysia

I'm not so much of an audio nut No idea what quality is like between EX51 and EX71 as I haven't had the opportunity to test EX51. I can tell you that EX71 are solid performers, crisp sound. I just get tired of having those things in my ear canals.

thanks for all the comment and advice.
now i've decided to go sony style to have a look at EX51, EX71 and NX1 do decide which of these babe ...

anyway, do they let you test out those babes in SONY Style KLCC or VAIO LowYat?

i am looking for a wireless headphone. can anyone recommend me a good brand? btw, anyone using it coz i find that wireless ones are more nicer coz less hassle with the wires.

please help thank..

generally wireless hp sound is not so so, but if u really want to try Sennheiser, more trustable brand. But nowday there's bluetooth hp, anyone try it b4?

erm...what model sennheiser offer for the wireless headphone? i cannot find any in their website. anyone doing bulk or any shops selling them?

@david

Well, bluetooth headphones are still new, and mind u there are bloody expensive. So i don't think anybody would want them right now.

I wanna your opinion about these 2 headphone...

Philips Shp890
Creative HN 700

Both are active noise cancellation..

Which one better...

The HP890 does not have active noise cancellation.
And in my opinion having owned and used a HP890 for some time, those Creatives are no competition.

Hey guys, I'm planning to buy 2 new headphones. One will be use for jogging and the other will be use at home (gaming and listening to music). Anyway, here's a list of headphones I'm thinking of getting
