can anyone tell me the price of
k430
n
k402
and which is better in terms of bass?
*
Both the AKG K430 and K402, unlike their professional siblings, offers really good bass. The K430 offers better clarity over the K402.

You may get slightly more bass out of the AKG K270mkII but personally do prefer the slightly better clarity on the K240mkII.

The 440 gets terrible comments on comfort...lol unsure.gif

And back on open backed cans. Other than ATH-AD300, any other at this RM300 price range?

I hear open backed cans have better sound quality compared to closed, but still considering whether to get open or closed cans. I dont mind a lil' leak but hopefully if its open, the leak is not that much..

Thanks in advance!! cool.gif

hi guys. I wanna buy IEMs.

Im choosing between the two. The hippo vb and the ATH CKS90. For now im more inclined to the CKS 90. But iv been hearing about the monstrous bass on the vb. I have the budget for both. my only criteria is for bass.

What im not so happy with the vb is that the lowest frequency response is only 15hz while cks goes until 5 i think. does that serve as a criteria for bass? please help me choose.
*
Anything below 20Hz is already well beyond human's audible range, useless! Typical human's perception of bass drum centers around 80 - 125 Hz.

- Headphone/ earphone type: earphone(any)
- Other requirements:
im working in an environment with heavy machinary plastic moulding. So it is constantly noisy. Im wondering if theres any very good noise cancellation earphone?i know its impossible to cancel all noise out but at least let me hear my music without max-ing the volume.

Yes priority is noise cancelling performance in noisy environment. I allocated budget 2k but 3k also no problem if its really good

- My Rig: Laptop/ iPod Touch/ Samsung Galaxy W
- Type of usage: Movie and Music
- File format: .mp3 and various movie format
- Music genre: Well I don't really know what type of music genre's i listen to. Little bit of tiesto to norah jones. So probably rock/jazz/acoustic and some dubstep/techno
- Budget: Preferably around the RM200 mark but I don't mind paying a little extra if it's worth it
- Headphone/ earphone type: earphones
- Other requirements (if any): Good noise isolation. I like to listen to the details of the musical instrument being played, for example the guitar strings being plucked, i prefer it to be clear and sharp, not muffled.
I am also considering getting a headphone. Is it better to get a bassy headphone and clarity earphones or the other way round? Just in case i plan to get two tongue.gif

Thanks in advance biggrin.gif

Generally, audiophile headphones don't have mics for obvious reasons. Headphones with mics are just so that you can chat/team-speak online during gaming sessions.
Also, I read somewhere having a mic distorts the quality of the music/sound the headphone produces because of the conflicting signals or something, hence why manufacturers don't slap on a mic on their high-end headphones  shakehead.gif  .

You can try the Garage Sales section. Tons of people and some small retailers have their own threads with prices in them.
Brand is something personal IMO, just go with whatever you feel is best, or better yet, check reviews online.

File Format: FLAC & 320 MP3
Genre: Wide range really... YUI, AC/DC, Metallica, Carpenters, Orchestral etc.

Im torn between the DT770 and the SRH940 atm. I currently only own a pair of Shure's SE315 so this is my first venture into full-sized cans. Thus, any input will be much appreciated smile.gif

Also, will probably be getting the E7/E9 set up soon after the headphone itself if not together.

Look no further than the legendary AKG K240mkII. 90% of the top studios in the world uses this for their engineers to mix down their music. nod.gif
