» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « QUOTE If portability is a consideration, Fanny Wang On-ear DJ with in-built bass boost  If it is only for home use, the award winning AKG K242HD / K240mkII coupled with FiiO Alpen (E17) Review: http://www.compudio.ca/2010/08/joyride-on-akg-k242hd.html  Thanks for the suggestion bro. I think I dont really need headphone for my SGS II because i dont like wired headphone and i already using SE MW600 Hi-Fi Wireless Headset for my phone. How about if my requirement is open type? Does open type too loud for other to hear anything? This post has been edited by rulmufc: Dec 27 2011, 01:55 AM
