Hi guys. Im planning to upgrade my cans. Currently using audio technica ad500. Now wanna get something with warm sound signature, and not tiring after hours of listening. Purpose is mainly music, specifically jazz and oldies. What do u guys recommend? Budget around 1k (max can go 1.2k). Thanks!

1. Portable or home use? Do you want in-ears or earphones? Do you want it at jogging/gym or just listening in the office? Tell us more.
Basically, I will be using it all the time, except when I am working, talking to people or listening to lectures. I just can't stand the people around me talking all the time and making the noises, for example, a typical chinese restaurant, it is very noisy with the people talking, the waiter shouting or worse, the noise of plates or glasses fall.

2. Pricerange. I hate to ask this but in general, the higher price tag one will be better sounding.
Well, my budget is around RM400, but cheaper is better (best bang for bucks) but if there is some nice personal audio which worth some extra money, please recommend them as well.

3. What headphone/earphone experience do you have or own previously. Do you like them? Or do you dislike them? What signature do you like? Less bass from the sonys'? More soundstage from MS2i? Sometimes adding an amp would just help, just the synergy that everyone experienced.
I haven't been very serious about my personal audio device. All I have been using are stock earphones came with the mp3 or mobile phone. I bought a Asus Vulcan ANC recently but it is only suitable for gaming (absolutely accurate about positioning) but it is not for music nor movie because I found the sound is flat.

4. Which genre of music you listen most? There must be one that you like most. Rock? Heavy metal? Classical music? Vocals? Jazz? What will you certainly NOT listen to? The headphones that is suitable specific genre will differs a lot and will sometimes not suitable for another genre. No one listens to everything, but if you do, you might want several different sets of headphones rather than one.
My favourite genre is vocal (Adele songs), but I also enjoy pop songs, christian songs and some trance musics. I am really certain that I won't be listening to rock, heavy metal, techno or anything that is similar because I cannot stand the noise, it is like something is trying to pierce through my ears or boom my ear drum non-stop (no offence to the people who like those genres though). But then i still need some decent bass because i will be watching movies. Well, action movies normally comes with gunfires and stuffs breaking, right?

5. What you listen with. What player do you have? Using an amp? What type of source? It all makes a difference.
Laptop: Asus G53SW Mobile phone: Samsung Galaxy S2 mp3: iriver T9 So, I dont use an amp want to own one in the future though

So, what I am looking for is something (be it headphone, earphone or whatever-phone-that-you-name-it) that has excellent sound and some bass (for movie purposes) but fits within my budget. I also need noise isolation and noise cancellation. Thank you in advance.

I found that Jays a-Jays One+ may be a good choice because it can be used on my phone.

Greetings bro's,

I would appreciate feedback between these 2 DJ headphones: Shure SRH750DJ & Audio-Technica ATH PRO500.

I'm looking at bass, quality and finally overall sound quality (mid, highs, etc.). Any suggestions between these 2 or better ones without sacrificing too much of my budget?

Thanks.

is there any earphone better than Superlux HD381 around RM60-70?

Shure Srh750 not bad..or u can look at TMA1
