Hi mate!
I've tried J4 and I read several of -ve feedback bout J4...
Having 2nd thoughts... =/

Thanks for the reco mate! Audio Technica looks tempting.

Btw, I've browse through a HK Official Dealer for Jays and J4 is about RM200 incl posting.
Is it a good deal?

try jaben network for local supplier with warranty easily do-able

I wonder is Audio-Technica ATH-CKS55i available in market... cant seems to search it... hmm....

Asking on behave of a teenager, so I assumed look is important.

Hi guys. I'm looking at the Koss PortaPro and wonder how easy is it to break? From google, many people say it breaks but they did not mention which part. To those using this headphone, how's the durability of the headphone?

Not really. If u come to Jaben we will demonstrate how hard the impact it will sustain. I can even throw the headphone on the floor in front of u.

^ So i guess i'll be getting mine as soon as i get my money

Greetings,

- My Rig: PC with ASUS P7P55D-E Pro MoBo OnBoard sound card (VIA HD Audio Deck) & PS3, both connected to Edifier HCS2330
- Type of usage: Apartment, indoor either on bed or lazy chair. Priority from top to low: Movie, Gaming, Music
- File format: Movie: avi, mkv, mp4 (these files varied with 2ch or 6ch), Music: Lossy mp3
- Movie genre: Action, Sci-fi, Fantasy, CG (Expendables, Death Race, How to Train Your Dragon, Transformers to name a few...)
- Music genre: Classic, Acoustic, Anime soundtrack, K-pop, local online radio (MixFM & LiteFM)
- Budget: RM200-RM300++
- Headphone/ earphone type: Circumaural or Closed-back (something comfortable for long movie/gaming sessions & also good enough to block out annoying ambient from OUTSIDE apartment unit (eg: neighbor's kids screaming, horn/faulty alarm from carpark, mat rempit, etc that sort of noise )
- Other requirements (if any): Just pure headphone with NO mic please, coz I don't chat online. If possible, I would really appreciate it if can get shops (not LYT garage sales/street mart) to browse for the brand/model suggested as well. Klang Valley area only please.
- Extra questions: Since I'll be connecting the headphone to my HMC2330 amp, does having extra sound feature feature on headphone really matters since I can adjust bass & treble on the amp instead? If no, then is the Sennheiser HD 201 good enough? Also, does one actually can hear surround sound with these headphone from those 6ch movies?

Thanks in advance for the advices.
