No one answers me my previous post... cry.gif
I have a pair of JVC HA FX1X and iFrogz LuxeBud, may i know their strength? And may i know the market price for FX1X?

Please answer me... Thanks.

not much interest in JVC i guess, people go for some more mainstream products, like hippo, crossroads, phonak audeo etc

walabies who is a representative of Jaben Malaysia, E1-AKG who sells various audio products, I'm not sure what his store is called, hongrui who also sells various audio stuff, WS Tradings specialises in Fischer Audio stuff, Slevin Sent, beederbest, maninkl, DAViS, and calmshot. There might be others that I forgot, but for portable audio things I think all these sellers will get you covered.

Basically those are the ones I'd look for when looking for portable audio stuff, and I've dealt with some of them. They know their thing and has been doing it for quite some time.

E1-AKG's shop name is Event One Sdn Bhd, i had order from them and came under receipt name of Event One

Recently received the Shure 440 as a gift. Sounded kinda flat in terms of bass but has great treble and mids. Sifus or anyone using it, ca advice me on how long should I burn them in?  Any suggested amps I could use after burning them in?

Rig : Shure 440
Music : Bass-heavy songs
Amp : ?
*
bass heavy, the last thing i heard with heave bass amp was govibe peak, even with my ms1i and my ciem which did not have strong bass to start with, pumped bass which made me blink.gif i double checked if the headphone and ciem was really mine cause i never heard such bass off my pieces, peak as jaben staff told me is a more bass-centric amp

My Rig: Desktop with Wolfson WM8501 DAC
Type of Usage: Mostly music and movies....sometimes gaming
Music Genre: Mostly oldies and jazz
Budget: Not too sure...(will explain below)
Headphone/earphone type: Headphone
Other Requirements (if any): None
The reason why i stated that budget was unsure because i'm using a cheapo DAC...so I wouldnt want to get sometimes too cheap or too expensive as it will not be performing as it should be...so i hope someone can advice me on which headphones are recommended...thank you so much in advance...=)

why not try our "starter edition" superlux series, most are < Rm200 with acceptable SQ

- My Rig: iPod Touch
- Type of usage: Music
- File format: MP3
- Music genre: Rock, Metal, Jazz
- Budget: RM200 - 300
- Headphone/ earphone type: IEM
- Other requirements : IEMs need to have clarity. Need to be able to hear every bit of the song

Used a pair of CX200s before and liked its clarity, but then again, i had nothing to compare it with. Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

what is the purpose of N-C other than reduce background noise? cool.gif
been using Sony for years
*
nc is not for reducing background noise, it is to cancel off static noise like engine sound or airplane motor sound, you still can hear inconsistent sounds like talking, car passing by, tv sound, humping sound of room mate next door with a girl moaning etc etc

guys. just wanna ask simple question

between alessandro ms2i and beyerdynamic dt990 premium 250 ohm,

which one better??

I'm looking for massive soundstage here.

I tried the ms2i and even though people say that soundstage isn't its specialty, i am quite satisfied with it.

Wish i tried the dt990s, but if can, wanna know what u guys think la.

dun worry about amp and all, i got those covered biggrin.gif
*
i personally am a fan on beyer, i was using ms1i and sold it off for my pair of beyer dt770 250ohm, grado type wounds a bit too bright for me, beyer sounds more "entertaining"

thank you thank you  notworthy.gif

anything I'm missing out if I chose the 990s over the ms2i?

I heard 990s mids are recessed, meaning I won't feel that front seat and feel sitting at the back of a concert right?

are the mids on the ms2i better, or 990s are an overall winner here?
*
unless you are into aggressive sounds and forward mids, i think ms2i for metal songs and rock is nice, in general genre, 990

Hey thx for the recommendation. Just saw the technical specification of it and found that the impedance of both headphone is quite high for me(36 and 48 respectively). So is my mobile gadget enough power to power it?
*
36 and 48 aint high, it is easy to deal with, high is something 250ohm and above

Hello sifus!
Wish you could recommend something for my needs, hehe

- Your rig (Ipod, laptop)
- What type of usage (music, movies)
- File format used in your source (mp3)
- Genre of music you listen to (im looking for a balanced cans)
- Headphone/ earphone type (over the ear, open back)
- Other requirements (comfy headphone)
- budget (500-700)

I've had ath m50. Sound quality is pretty nice but now I'm looking for a bigger soundstage and comfortable to the ears. m50 burns my ears after a period of time and fatiguing.
