I was looking into Sennheiser HD 201, Philips SHP2700, Edifier Coolware Music 800 and Sony MDR-XD200 but could not decide which one to buy. Can anyone please suggest me some headphone models suitable for electric guitar amplifiers. Thank you.

Your wish list ath-m50, rite? Why not get that one. Else, fa-003 oso should be fine

Is that so? Hmm....will definitely look into it.
Any thoughts where I might get it?

Yeah it's in my wishlist, but there's just nowhere I can get it. Or test it. I tried asking around in Garage Sales, nobody's carrying it.

Did u try jaben audio malaysia? They have all the headphones u need

The one in Subang Jaya right? No, not yet, since it's a bit too far. But I'll try calling them up and ask.
But then, which is better? The M50 or the TMA-1?

didnt reserved 1-2 more posts in case you need for extra info?

anyways reported so mod may pin it (and remove old thread)

i think it's because you dont judge headphones on the amount of bass it can put out.

Probably M50 is clearer. But for your genre I think TMA-1 is more suitable

anything better than Solo HD sound and bass quality with same/-+ price?

Built specifically for your application, the AKG K44

not sure if trolling

This review answers your question

Really? For rock, alternative and metal the tma-1 is better? How so? I thought m50 sounds clearer? Meh I'll try them both to decide. What about some old songs? Like 80s songs such as one night in bangkok, take on me, and new songs like paradise by coldplay? I've been listening to a few headphones with paradise. Not all of them deliver the perfect sound balance for the song.

The TMA-1 does have an aggressive sound signature great for genres you had mentioned. If a more balanced sound is preferred, do check out the AKG Q460s.

Besides Jaben, you can try out both the M50 and the TMA-1 at Tong Lee Co. as well, ground floor of Low Yat Plaza.

Ground floor eh? Alright will do. They are a store like jaben is it?

Which IEM come closet to Fischer Audio Eterna V1 in term of bass quality and amount?

its the one with tube amps outside, and a lot of foreigners walking in and asking stupid questions.

For your budget do check out Superlux HD660, if sound quality is what you're looking for.

Do try the Denon AH-D1100 and Beyer DT770 too.

Sadly in the same price bracket... none. Hippo VB should sound the closest.

However, if price is not an issue

Monster Turbine Pro Gold and Sennheiser IE8 are what you need to look into.
