Need some advice, please and thank you.
- My Rig: USB DAC (T-Muso, based on PCM2704, 16-bit/48khz)
- Type of usage: Music mostly
- File format: Lossless ^^ (APE, FLAC, etc)
- Music genre: hard to say, almost everything except heavy metal !
- Budget: Below RM 300 (but I don't like to depend on price to buy item)
- Headphone/ earphone type: Anything but not IEM & noise cancelling, prefer earbud/Circumaural
- Other requirements (if any): Best if any volume control, but not important.

I love to listen to music, so starting to buy good earphone/headphone.
I love flat response gear (or should I say neutral sounding ?), which means nothing is extra (like heavy bass, etc) but prefered detail high, clear mid, tight bass, etc.

I'm not the kind which love booming bass, so I guess tight bass would suit me ? Love to hear more natural music, so I guess i'm suitable for Open back Headphone ?

About earbud, I think no more such stock (I heard that discountinued).
Regarding KK99, you know where got sell and the proximity price ?

It seems (haven't tried listening to) HT-21 from MeElec very good too, but how is it compare to those 2 you recommend ?

- My Rig: Mobile Phone
- Type of usage: Listen to music
- File format: mp3 i Guess
- Music genre: Almost anything
- Budget: Lets see first
- Headphone/ earphone type: IEM
- Other requirements (if any): I had tested HD668B Superlux, and i felt good. Would like to find a IEM similar to it (in terms of clarity,etc), maybe with slightly less bass would be perfect.
