QUOTE(rayne90 @ Sep 7 2012, 01:48 PM) Your rig - ipod classic and laptop - What type of usage - Movie, Music and Gaming - File format used in your source - MP3 320kb - Genre of music you listen to - ALL - Headphone/ earphone type - Headphone - Other requirements - Sound Quality + Clarity me narrow down till Audio-Technica M50 n A500. is it changing the ear pad can get punchy bass or additional amp? if tat, what amp all senior would recommend? You want bass, forget about A500, close type normally have better bass then open type.

Or everywhere else is selling at this price? oh, btw saw this at groupon, and according to few review online seems quite decent. Or is there a better phone i can get at RM99? RM 99 is a good deal.

QUOTE(michael27c @ Oct 3 2012, 12:32 AM) Guys do u have any idea if Sennheiser HD201 is comfortable for long hours of usage (ie. not painful after long hours etc)? Depend on your ears. My personal preference is to open can, close can will make me feel stressed when listening for long hours.
