im ok with designs,but its the sound that matters...i am the type who never audition higher end headphones.the closest thing i got is a small cx-300.i listens to contemporary and instruments and sometime the mid-night gaming session (im stayin in condo)

but what i am not so sure with grado is that is it not really full cap like 895???(i also not sure with what i am talking bout)

i just bought hp890...rm195 from kota raya smile.gif thumbup.gif
can add me in the owner list.?haha
now listening on it...hmm...not really producing what the bass that i expected...or this 890 need to burn first 1.??? biggrin.gif
any opinion.?

if you bought it like after 4 or 5 pm,then you are a bit late than me...i got it for RM185.but too bad,there's an infection on my right ear,so i will leave it for burning-in quite awhile...dont want to dirty my precious baby

that shop gal said that only got 1 unit left,i guess you are the lucky one.i thought of sapu-ing all,but lazy go ATM.you are lucky,man

initial impression is that,890 is really fragile comparing to 8900.but the cushion is much much more softer...no chance to wear it yet...

haha,dare not,dare not...1 for my bro,1 for me.initial comparison...i find that 890's cable is kinda loose and easy to drop off,8900 come with a lock kinda thingy to ensure the cable wont come off...and 8900,you wont look out if you bring it out...but 890 will make you look weird with its suport kinda thingy at the top...

the music side,just wait a bit more for burn in 1st...

when comparing my 8900 and 890 today,the 890 like lacks details only.the bass is all muddy...8900 really is much better.lAh0S,you should try mine after your exam...i am interested in your 890 too.
