what about this question instead: is the hp895 a balance combination of jazz, clarity AND techno?
because me myself sometimes wanna use it too for some jazz and movie for myself, for a change from SR80.
Well if you rephrase it as such...Yeah it's not that bad. It's just that other headphones would perfomr better
The bass just isn't enough for techno somehow. But it's ok. Still sounds good.
i kinda like the hp805 design and comfort, but i know the hp895 aint as comfortable as the hp895 but i guess it would be nice.
Dude? Well some have said that the 805 is more comfortable. I can't really say, I only have the 895 
hahaha, have an SR80 already, don wanna buy another Grado from that range.
if i were to get another Grado, it would be something like SR325i and above
Ouch to your wallet. Haha
portapro huh? will test it out if im possible to get my hands on one of those. how much roughly is the price of portapro?
prefer a full size headphone actually
.
Hm..I got one. If you stay anywhere near ampang, maybe I can let you try my pair. Price? About RM 155 from Sri Com in Low Yat. However, the portapro is pretty bass heavy, and details tend to get a bit muddled. So bear that in mind. I wouldn't say it's the most balanced headphones around. Though it's pretty portable (unlike the 805/895).
hp890? or hp895? the hp890 is still better?
where cna i get my hands on the hp890 if i want?
Well according to mike, and the review he gave in his bulk thread, the 890 only shines if it's amped. And the 895 doesn't benefit that much from amping (I'm gonna concur-I didn't feel that much of a difference, or perhaps it's only coz I'm using a ClassAB. I honestly dunno if that's the reason or it's just my ears aren't sensitive enough ). I'd say get the 895 for the stand! Haha And the fact that you can run it without an amp and it still can sound good.
Where can you get it? Not sure of shops. I've never seen it in shops
You could try mike or davis. They both sell it.
