anyone wants to sell hp890/shp895? interested buyer here. PM me

sorry. tumpang this thread

a simple solution: don plug anything into ur pc when u ar booting it up

u know wat? u better keep it safely n buy a nice solex lock for it. i m desperate too.... n i jus stay nex to u. beware..... haha

u r really lucky to get such a deal. y i din think of posting a thread in head-fi?

btw, i got a SHP805. can i be a member of this thread? philips also ma... haha

i think u should try the amps urself be4 u buy. try n see if u can notice any significant improvement. btw, thedoctor is selling a portable amp for RM300. quite an expensive investment, it is class A, so should b better than the class AB. but again, if u cant hear the difference between class AB and class A, no point spending the extra for the latter. the best thing is thedoctor is giving a 14-day money back guarantee. meaning if u ar not satisfied, don notice any difference, u can giv it back to him n he wil giv u full refund.

i seriously believe HP1000 is underpowered when unamped. it is very difficult to drive. so i think amping it wil improve the sound a lot.

for ext soundcard, PSC805 is a nice n cheap 1. or u can try Audigy NX - ext version of Audigy2 ZS. but buying an amp+soundcard will cost u quite alot. if money is not ur prob, then u can go ahead... haha

FIM super sound is very rare in auckland too... as wat i hav said... auckland.... haih.....

PSC805 is RM210 if u buy from lgs bulk. but i donno wil he open the bulk again. or u can get a 2nd hand 1 for RM190 in garage sales section. DAViS is selling it at RM270

for amp, there ar plenty of cheap 1 around. but i don really know about their difference in performance. there ar PA2V2 for RM222, mini-eph RM120, n others like edifier tat u can buy outside. if u don mind buying DIY 1, then there ar CMOY RM80, class AB RM130 from Eokboy, portable amp RM300 from thedoctor. (should i get advertising fee from these sellers?? haha....)

since u r in a tight budget, i think u should buy an amp 1st. jus my humble opinion. u can try to ask the sifus here

hey lucifah... tat is 'crazy' setup la. ppl only beginner.... tats y i say, LYN forumers is very good in squeezing ppl's wallet

actually i donno which 1 wil giv better improvement also. so don take my words seriously... haha... she should ask the sifus here

she is stil new to audiophile. jus got a HP1000, not sensible to change. so now should buy an amp?

hmmm.... so these ar the opinions given by the sifus here... think about it after ur exam la... haha...

i think someone said in the PSC805 thread tat the headphone out is crappy. was it u?

if use the line out at the back panel, it is unamped rite?

it actually depends on ur needs. not everyone can sense the difference.

if u ar an audiophiler, yes. u should aim quite high. a decent soundcard and an amp is a must

haha... jus press reply ma... its easier than quote then reply

wah... like tat also kena warning a? i think he didnt mean to spam or wat. n he is giving his opinions to help ppl le

donno if anyone has tried tat before... but not many ppl would use a HP1000 without a decent amp

well, u can jus ignore wat other ppl said n satisfy with wat u hav. u doesnt hav to go for the best. u hav choices. choose who to listen to wisely. most importantly, listen to ur wallet carefully

the problem now is no money le. no money nothing can b done.

n also, tat is only the case if she can hear the difference. she is stil quite new to this hobby. if she cant hear the difference, wat for pay so much money for the amp, soundcard n all? she listen to mp3 mostly (i assume). wat kind of quality do u expect from tat source? mayb u can say get better CDs, amp, soundcard, mp3 player... these things will cost her a lot.

supazta: my advice is test the amps/soundcard/wateva u wanna buy with ur setup and play the songs u usually listen to. buy if u can hear the difference (of coz, a good difference la...) n if ur wallet allows

looks like u r going after her hp1000

mp3 is a compressed format. i bet it is even worse than good quality pirated CDs

the difference is quite huge. my ears ar not particularly sensitive. but i stil can sense the difference

don bully her la i think wat she meant was with laptop onboard sound or with external soundcard
