I think it's not really appropriate to compare porta pro and the other 2 buds. As porta pro is a headphone, not a canal phone. The other 2 provides isolation whereas porta pro doesn't. Somebody correct me if i'm wrong.

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 believe that it'll be hard to find those buds in kl area. Why don't try ordering online? Especially bluetin. I heard from gav that their service is pretty good.

The main difference btw px100 and px200 is that 100 is an open phone while 200 is a closed phone. And px100 is a sucessful production while the latter is a failure. The best it to try it for yourself. I think the price of px200 should be around RM 200-250

Mx500 and 550 is produced by senheisser. Under RM50, i doubt u can get a pair of decent buds with that. Good luck with that. Maybe u can try ur luck at LYP.

You can't compare SHP 895 and the px100 as the previous one is a home headphone while the latter one is for portable use. As a user of px100, I would say it's worth the price paid, and it's really portable.

Certainly, the 895 can produce a better sound field as it's bigger. Why not try the grado SR-60? good phone for home use.

If u plan to get shure or etymotic in ear buds, i suggest u to buy online. It's much cheaper than buying in malaysia. The tax rate slammed on those buds are so high that the price might be 20-30% higher.

The 895 is bigger in size if compared to the 497. But for me i would take the 895. To me the HD 515 sounds crappy, the 497 is even below it, so i would forget about it. Haven't got a chance to hear the 895, but there is a lot of positive comments about it. Why not give it a shoot?

No problem. Let us know what u think of the 895. Although i just bought the 555 2 hours ago, my ears are itching to hear the 895... hehe tongue.gif

@buffa

As geminist has posted, pls take note before u post.

@geminist

Hmm.. i disagree with u that the PX100 is unstable. So far im ok with it but just that it'll spoil ur hairstyle. Since both of our hairstyle are similar haha smile.gif

I think the grado sr60 would be a good buy at that price range. Why not try it out? It gives good bass impact compared to other phones.

Try searching the thread where to get it. I dont think u can get it from the bulk sales section. Grado has a strict sales method.

Agree, ppl at head.fi have bad comments for it. Maybe 9500 is a better choice. I have a impression that in ear phone that cost less than Rm500 would be crap.

@creap

HP890 is a heavy bass phone and i believe that none of senn phones are near to it. Sennheiser produce more balanced phones. Maybe u can try the HD 555. Quite a hot model among us now. smile.gif



@cucuatoq

First of all both ear buds that u asked about are low end models/consumer models. I believe that earbuds that cost less than RM500 are pretty crappy. It depends on you actually, quality wise i think both are almost on par but built wise, i guess u should know the answer.

Wireless headphones IMO are not worth buying. It's still only in a trial stage and besides that for the amount of money u're paying, u can get a pretty decent headphone. Hope it helps.

* sorry alamak. forgot about which model u told me. Post editted.
