Hi fellow Audio Technica users~

I recently made my mind on getting either AD500, 700 or 900.
I usually listen to Kpop, rnb and pop songs. Are the mentioned model suitable for my types of song? I figure it out because these songs are not so bassy and Kpop are usually very stage-sound alike. Correct me if im wrong smile.gif

not really, but if you got the money for AD900, why bother AD700/500, right?  tongue.gif

For some reason(which I don't know), people rarely recommend AD500 and the headphone is just like 'sink' in between AD300 and AD700. AD300 can be quite suitable for most music genre, whereas AD700 is quite picky for the music genres. This is because AD700 has lighter bass compared to AD300.

Of course the expensive one will have better sounding than the cheaper ones, I was kinda shock to hear all the details when I upgraded my headphone from AD300 to AD900.  biggrin.gif

Oh well, if you have the budget you should just go for AD900 la.  Plus, it's easy to be driven. thumbup.gif

What does it mean easy to be driven?

Uhm... im gonna bring it back to Malaysia with me. I reckon I wont get custom tax right?

QUOTE(sheenho @ Nov 14 2011, 09:45 PM)
Retail price of AD900 in Malaysia will be RM1070.

If you are going to stay in Australia for another year, then just grab it there la. But if you are coming back soon, hmmm.. It's a hard decision to make.  blush.gif  Have to worry about the warranty issue bro.

Uhm... actually this is my last semester and my last paper on the 24th November haha! If nothing goes wrong to my finals means im back to Malaysia on December for good biggrin.gif
Is warranty really that important? they often go wrong 1 mer? warranty how long btw?

QUOTE(GenericMav @ Nov 14 2011, 09:58 PM)

Hi fellow AT fans!

Just a quick question, Im not a professional headphone user. Just looking for 1 with good durability and sound quality.

Can any1 critic and praise on a ATH-WS70? Im kinda keen on getting it...

I usually listen to pop and R&B songs (I've thought of ES7 but out of my budget d) Initial budget its RM150 now looking at WS70 ><

im more towards full sized headphones, so cant really comment much.

one thing though, AT are so good with their mids, it kinda shows on their CHEAPO C100G rofl. anything besides the mids is basically shit w
yet i still use it as my office earphones  thumbup.gif

Uhm... sorry but let me 1st ask a noob question 1st...
