hi friend,

1) I am using it through iPhones/laptop/desktop without soundcard.
2) Mainly it is for MUSIC
3) MP3/FLAC. but most of the time it's MP3
4) Most of the time I listen to Alternative rock like Linkin Park, or Coldplay, occasionally some beat songs like AVICII, Madonna's,
5) I am looking for In-ear earphones.

My budget for the earphone is around RM300.

Thank you for your time.

AiAiAi Swirl with inline mic and control



AiAiAi Pipe with inline mic and control



AKG K328 with inline mic and control

- Your rig -> Laptop, Mixer, DJ digital controller, iPhone 4
- What type of usage -> Music, music mixing, gaming, movies, studio monitoring
- File format used in your source -> mp3, wav
- Genre of music you listen to -> Pop, club, jazz, classical, bass
- Headphone/ earphone type -> Headphone, preferably the design similar to Numark Redwave headphone (I don't know how to describe that design )
- Other requirements (if any) -> Previously I had my eyes on the Numark Redwave, but I just can't seem to find it selling anymore, at least not in malaysia.. The reason why I have chosen that headphone was mainly for it's balance between Style, Performance and Price. So now I just want to ask if there is any similar headphones that looks good, plays good and pays good at the same time? Thank you in advance for your time and suggestion.

My budget will be maximum of RM600. It's flexible but just try not to stretch it out too far.

Multipurpose + Similar design with Numark Redwave + Budget RM6XX headphones:

[+] Denon DN-HP700EM
[+] Shure SRH750DJ
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-PRO500MK2

IEM is a no for me
Need something comfortable

Beyerdynamic 770 pro , any comments

The award winning AiAiAi TMA-1. It is out of your budget but is the choice of many established DJs around the world. It comes with 2 exchangeable cables. The coiled cable to be used with your mixer. The straight cable with inline mic and control for your iDevices.

need recommendation again~
thanks all (=
- Your rig:iphone/pc. maybe buying mp3 player
- What type of usage: music
- File format used in your source: mp3, wav
- Genre of music you listen to (classical, popular) all chinese new songs, prefer clear compare to bass
- Headphone/ earphone type (closed back or Circumaural headphones)
- Other requirements (if any) (mic if possible)
- Budget max 1000

Here is another question

- Budget: Lower than RM100 or max - RM150
- Your rig = laptop & PC
- What type of usage = movies and music
- File format used in your source = .mp3, .avi, .mkv, .flac
- Genre of music you listen to = mixture
- Headphone/ earphone type = full size only

and thanks for the suggestion, I will check them out, is there anywhere can I try?

Audio-Technica ATH-M40fs
Sony MDR-ZX700
Audio-Technica ATH-A500X (superb comfort but less durability)

DUNU Trident is about half your budget, if you want to max out your budget, DUNU Hephades.

sorry for asking too much, but i got some more questions for this spec:

Spec A:
- Budget: Less than RM250
- Your rig = PC & Curve 9320
- What type of usage = movies and music
- File format used in your source = .mp3, .avi, .mkv, .mp4
- Genre of music you listen to = heavy bass
- Headphone/ earphone type = full size, closed back headphone
- Additional = comfortable for long hour use

Spec B:
- Budget: Less than RM200
- Your rig = PC & Curve 9320
- What type of usage = movies and music
- File format used in your source = .mp3, .avi, .mkv, .mp4
- Genre of music you listen to = heavy bass
- Headphone/ earphone type = full size, closed back headphone
- Additional = comfortable for long hour use

Spec C:
- Budget: Less than RM150
- Your rig = PC & Curve 9320
- What type of usage = movies and music
- File format used in your source = .mp3, .avi, .mkv, .mp4
- Genre of music you listen to = heavy bass
- Headphone/ earphone type = full size, closed back headphone
- Additional = comfortable for long hour use

Spec D:
- Budget: Less than RM100
- Your rig = PC & Curve 9320
- What type of usage = movies and music
- File format used in your source = .mp3, .avi, .mkv, .mp4
- Genre of music you listen to = heavy bass
- Headphone/ earphone type = full size, closed back headphone
- Additional = comfortable for long hour use

I tried Superflux HD668B(RM150) but wasnt quite impressed with its bass. But its still in my list. Thanks in advance. And sorry again if its too much question..

Soundcard is there, just maybe not "good" enough. Or else there won't be sound coming out

For that price, I'd most probably go for Beyerdynamic DT231pro. But that's headphone and not iem. If you can somehow spare for a little bit more budget, go for Shure SE215. It's one of the bang for the buck IEM. Good for what? Good for rock!

Haha. Happy Head-fi!

Circumaural, closed back with mic and control ... the Fanny Wang 2000 series but slightly above your budget

Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO have deep and rich bass and detail but it out of your budget (RM 600)

Bass + Budget RM 600 headphones:

[+] Audio-Technica ATH-WS55 / ATH-WS55i / ATH-WS70
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-A500X
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-PRO500MK2

Clarity + Closed back + Circumaural + Budget RM1000 headphones:

[+] Klipsch Reference ONE (With mic for IOS)
[+] Sony MDR-ZX700IP (With mic for IOS)
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-A900X (Without mic)

Full size + Budget RM150 headphones:

[+] Sony MDR-MA100 / MDR-MA300 (open-back)
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-T200 (closed-back)

I dont think you can test locally for Audio-Technica ATH-M40fs, Sony MDR-ZX700, Audio-Technica ATH-A500X...

save abit more go for shure se215

I'm just wondering if the AKG K701 is still available on market or it's discontinued?

the new Q701 didn't really impress me because of the missing dedicated headphone stand for it lol

oh wait there is also K702 rite? still there in the market?


and coming from a Grado/Alessandro user, how much will I gain/lose if I were to switch to these?

cuz I sure do wish I have more comfort for my Alessandro MS1i

You will get improved clarity, instrument separation and great comfort The K702 does not come with the stand as well but like the Q701, it has detachable cables, much easier to swap

the K702 uses mini xlr rite?
interesting stuff

Yes, both Q701 and K702 uses the mini-XLR connectors
