- 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.
*
If you do serious enjoy the peace and quiet of active noise cancellation, be prepared to pay in excess of RM1000 for good audio quality.

Looking for a wireless headphone. My current one is a Pioneer SE-A1000, which I am happy with, but I need a wireless one. Just saw the TDK WR700 at Harvey Norman for RM550. Checked in Amazon, it is only US$109. Anywhere else can I get this in KL/PJ at a more reasonable price?

Thanks.
*
USD109 (w/o courier) = RM332 + import duty + sales tax = RM434.00 + RM100 (courier) = RM534. Warranty?
