Planning to buy a earphone for my upcoming holiday which requires a very time consuming flight to listen to songs on my iPod touch.

Can anyone list a few of the best earphones I can get with a max budget of RM 200?
Preferably in-ear earphones as they generally produce better sound with better sound isolation.

Thanks! Will share my 3000 mp3s in my library with you if you can help  tongue.gif

Hey guys, I'm trying to look for new earphones because mine just got, destroyed. I was checking out the Klipsch S4 and wonder if there are any others in the same price range? I listen to mostly alternative, and grunge. Hope you guys can help smile.gif

Edit: Forgot to put in my budget. Under RM200. Maybe an extra 50 if it's really worth it.

S4 is a good choice.

Other will be Beyerdynamic XP series.

How are they?

So...

Sony MH1c
Fischer Audio Tandem/Silver Bullet
Klipsch S4
Any others?

MH1C some say good some say no good, not test before so no comment.

Hi guys, I was looking at Sennheiser HD439. Not sure if it is the right choice or not. Advises are welcomed. smile.gif
- Your rig: Laptop
- What type of usage: Mostly music, sometimes movies
- File format used in your source: Pretty much all the lossless formats... WAV, TAK, TTA, APE, FLAC and sometimes 320K MP3 or m4a
- Genre of music you listen to: Rock, ballad, pop, sometimes jazz.
- Headphone/ earphone type: either circumaural or supra aural
- Budget: RM350
- Other requirements: Comfortable for long hours of listening, accurate and clear sounds, a little bass is okay but i would prefer them to be "just enough" kinda feeling, not too much.
*
If is indoor use only, long hour listening and don't mind about the bass, I suggest you to look for open back headphone.

Audio Technica AD series, Grado MS series, Goldring DR-150 with custom cable...

Or like me get a HD 595 second hand tongue.gif

additional note: Goldring with custom cable have very similar sounds to my Sennheiser HD 595, if you don't mind the design. smile.gif

Thanks, btw how can it be compared to Rm300++ headphones? such as the fad adagio iii or the sony xba 20? Hmmm..smile.gif

Don't compare lar like this, you pay more, you get more (not only sound, built quality, material, long lasting, brand..).

But the best way still you go try by yourself and see which one you like the most. biggrin.gif
