About Tma-1, it has Solo HD feel..which means it has strong bass..suitable for rock and dubstep..for vocal i dont think it is a good idea..maybe u can look at fanny wang 1001, quite same price but more balance than tma1

Burn-in will give same result too. Don't listen to the one misleading u above. The problem is not on ur headphones. I assume u're running it directly through laptop's 3.5mm jack hole without a USB DAC. Laptop's soundcard has always been very very suckish just so u know. U should invest in an entry-level DAC if u are on tight budget, say GoVibe DAC which is around RM150-200 AFAIK.
