- My Rig: Stock laptop onboard soundcard - currently.
- Type of usage: Music
- File format: mp3 and flac
- Music genre: easy-listening, jazz and little bit of pop
- Budget: below 400
- Headphone/ earphone type: headphone preferred
- Other requirements (if any): good clarity perhaps?

As above, I have listed out my budget of below 400 for an headphone. The review for Superlux HD661 seems pretty good on the clarity and seems to fit into the music genre I'm listening, in your opinion, is there any other brand and model to suggest?

Should I get HD661 and pair with a usb-dac or a better headphone first?
Any help is very, very much appreciated.
Thank you.

addendum: if possible, any headphone with noise-cancellation? would be great if able to indulge myself into the music after a tiring day.

must be headphones, i can't use those earplug types as it makes my ears itchy if used long.
i'm looking at phillips 'the bend'... i wonder how is it guys? its black red

thanks.

Hey guys, where can i get this headphones?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-SHQ1000-10...e/dp/B0038ANY2K

or any recommendation for sweat proof headphone. my Apple earphone soak with sweat profusely and its now not working. Check with Davis in lowyat and he said sold out. I went to mid valley yesterday to look for it and nobody is having it...

thanks but they are way beyond my budget . the reason i prefer philip shq1000 is because its economy and sound quality is just as good as apple earpiece. sound or bass quality does not matter to me as working out does not really require good sound to me.

The online price is just RM 52 but retail might be around RM 69

already pm him and told me to get outside.. that's all in the conversation.
