If you can raise your budget, can get much better stuff. Either fiio E6 or secondhand Hippobox+ (look in garage sales - amp)

Hi guys, please help me with my settings. I haven buy any of the items below yet, need to plan and research abit more before i decide anything. But if u know any other product thats better then what i plan to buy and also within my budget, please don't hesitate to tell me. Thank you for helping me out.

Source : Cowon j3(any other suggestions?)

Equipment : UE triplefi 10(any other suggestions?)

Requirement : I will be listening mostly to jazz etc norman brown,, kenny G, Dave koz, brian culbertson, jonathan fritzen.......

Budget : Below 1k

Is this a good combination of pmp+ iem+ amp(if i even need it?) I've been listening to my lousy headphone all these years so i hope this investment will be a good one. Thanks again.

i have 4 speakers. 2 big ones at 70 watt 8ohm. 2 smaller ones at 15 watt 8 ohms. totalling 170 watt. 4 channel. no woofer.

need a new amp, i have no idea what to budget for. nothing more than rm1500 would be preferred.

this is for personal room use, connected to PC. would u guys recommend a sound card for the comp? lol

Then FiiO E10 is not for you, the right upgrade is the E11.

In jaben i'm free to audition anything that they are selling? Actually i'm planning to go jaben to listen to everything b4 decide, but while waiting here might as well do some research first, so at least when i go to the shop i know what to find. Tq aztoiozalan n bro hongrui for helping out. About going to jaben i still cannot decide yet, cause u know, CNY is coming, everything is rushing. About the source currently i'm quite firm on buying the j3 for the SQ, D3 the review is quite bad so i'll pass, u guys know anything about the next cowon product release date? J3 already released for quite some time already, so dono should i wait awhile more for the next product or not. Thanks again.

streetrat, are you in KL? if you are, you want to come down and join us for the TT, that way you can try some of our stuff.

i will also be at jaben kl on 8/1 between noon to 3pm. come on down and try out everything before deciding

yes, you can try out everything that jaben has got in their shop. you can go there and try to your heart's content and no worries if you can't decide during your first audition. just go there, tell the guys your budget and music taste, and they will do the rest.

just make sure you allocate more time 2-3hours to visit there. if too rushed, its also hard for you to a decision.

recommended iems: se425/se535, um2x,um3x, acs t15.

What's your budget? My new 150ohm earbud works fine with corda 3move. Mine cheaper than your earbud, the sunrise as-charm smile.gif

Then ibasso d-zero la. Many friends here bought it and like it.

Instead of comes with, it's more like you have to use the DAC to use the amp; since the only input for E10 is via USB.

mini^3

stock mini^3 vs stock cmoy: mini^3 darker, cmoy brighter. mini^3 more power, cmoy more dynamics.
