hello guys, on page 40 i posted:
"any headphone that is more comfortable than philips shp2700? seems hard to find any nore comfortable to wear for long time, whatever the price range." actually what i mean is that i i find that philips shp2700 (the old model, not the current black/grey model) is very comfortable (for a headphone) you can wear it for long time when i sleep, some more expensive headphone i can wear it for sometime but then it starts to get uncomfortable, and i have to take it off. some too much clamp, the material gets hot and sweaty etc.. not looking for iem actually as i found them obstrusive, and after wearing them for a while i alwys feel the need to take them off, unlike normal earphone which is usually more comfortable. but for headphone, there are many good quality headphone soundwise but comfort wise i dont have an idea which model is good for me to go and try. so i just want to find a decent quality audio wise(not necessarily super high quality audiowise, but also not sub par audio) and excellent comfort headphone. |

I would like to ask for suggestion here. I've been thinking to buy either Shure SRH840 or 940, but still not decide yet. Is it better to buy 840 and use the extra money to buy an amp, or 940 worth at that price? Is the 840 consider an upgrade from my ATH AD700? Also is there any other headphone to suggest me that is close.
- My Rig: laptop/PC and handphone - Type of usage: 50% music and 50% gaming/movie - File format: mostly mp3 and some flac - Music genre: classics, rock, pop, R&B, jazz, etc - Budget: ~rm1000 - Headphone/ earphone type: headphone(close) - Other requirements (if any): Prefer something more detail and natural but have a bit more bass than my current ad700. Even if lack bass not that much problem since I not really a basshead. Also hope to get one that's comfortable since I'll be using it for at least few hours in a day. Thank you |

If I'm looking for a headphone with a mic and some control buttons as well. kinda narrow it down to sennheiser MM70i, Klipsch S4i and AiAiAi Pipe. which is the better of the lot? is there any other suggestion?

Another question, any amp you can recommend for this?

Also is there any other headphone to suggest me that is close. SRH840 has more bass compared to SRH940 while SRH940 has more details and more neutral. Comfort wise, velour pads of SRH940 win hands-down and the clamping force is not as tight as SRH840. I personally would recommend SRH940 over SRH840.- My Rig: laptop/PC and handphone - Type of usage: 50% music and 50% gaming/movie - File format: mostly mp3 and some flac - Music genre: classics, rock, pop, R&B, jazz, etc - Budget: ~rm1000 - Headphone/ earphone type: headphone(close) - Other requirements (if any): Prefer something more detail and natural but have a bit more bass than my current ad700.
