I tend to agree on Grado junkie look and low quality feel
 The comfort level should be same like my ET1000 which I have salvaged the ear cup from HP890 to make it listenable for long hours... Yes I did survived with 4 CD Cai Qin + 1CD Latin Jazz + 1CD Luis Salina + 2CD Cafe Del Mar + Top 10 ancient chinese music. |

Don't compare here and there like lack of bass, lack of mid, lack of treble, before you want to get a speaker or headphone you must understand the how the manufacturer fit themselves in audio world.
FYI... look at the Rogers ls 3/5, when you have a look on it and their technical specs you can ptui to it but look at the price tag and audiophile siao kia praise it you will understand that. That is music, different country, different culture and different education may appreciate different type of music to suit their taste. |

You can consider Philips SBC820 ear clip roound-the-neck phone. Their bass is nice and nice to wear for long hour too.

Many people can't see the thing clearly.
The price you guys look at Singapore or somewhere else haven't included the 7% GST (Singapore) yet!!!! Do remember the citizen there how much they pay their tax annually. It is something you give and take, government is not an idiot as well  This post has been edited by DAViS: Jan 4 2006, 11:34 PM |

QUOTE(geney @ Jan 15 2006, 12:04 AM) Where got 7%.. ... 5% only lah. But if you're a tourist, you can claim back mah. How to do I don't know lah. Most of my Singaporean friend told me is 7% GST By the way, think 45 promo overed liao lah. It was a promo at Popular Bookshop I think. I bought mine $59. So it's about there lah. Oh ya, you guys heard of this canalphone: Cresyn LMX-630. I heard it's pretty good.   |

QUOTE(wlcling @ Jan 19 2006, 04:20 PM) I am now using the Philips HN060 bought for RM150, and maybe its just me, but the bass doesnt seem to cut it... well somehow I'm not associating Philips products with the ability to provide me with a good bass earphone.... Also the build has been terrible, my first set had a few loose connections inside that caused one earphone to be non-functioning at times, after changed for a new set, it worked fine until after sometime, the below happened (wire came out of the cloth) I guess you should be very rough in using it  Recently I lost the isolation buds like shown below....  (does anyone know where replacements can be found?) Lastly, are all ear-buds generally bad in providing bass?  until wire can came out from the cloth sleeving  , did you try to claim from Philips?I am using my HN060 for close to 2 years everyday when I travelling, if I want to sell in here also can consider mint conditions. |

The answer very simple.
You like the music producing from the headphone. Characteristic of the headphone. Comfortable. Within your budget. Built quality. Those specs might not tell the whole thing but it is a guide line you may expect from it. |

There are two type of noise cancellation.
The best is you are deaf. 1. Passive type. Using earbuds budding your canal, that is the best method but if you ar eusing 3 flange bud earphone the result still not as good as earbuds. 2. Active noise cancelling only humming down certain frequencies which is quite annoying to us for long hours but good point is you always alert your surrouding like people calling your names, people talking you still able to hear. Currently I am using Active noise cencelling when I am riding a bike. |
