Guys I have a budget of rm299 and I'm looking at Grado SR60i which is 300 a little over, wondering if it's worth it or are there better contenders for that price range.

- Will be using onbaord audio for now, planning to get sound card or a DAC soon
- Music, but I will use it for gaming anyway but I don't care about gaming performance
- mp3, flac
- Rock, hard rock, metal etc. bands like LZ, nirvana those sort
- Headphone, closed preferably but I wont mind open

i noticed my ath m50 is not loud enuff
anybody can recommend a good amp that suits it?
thanks

Diff pinned thread, LOL!

If you want cheap and nice, Fiio series

Multipurpose + Budget RM260:

[+] Audio-Technica ATH-SJ55
[+] JVC HA-S400

Clarity + Budget RM150 IEM:

[+] Audio-Technica ATH-CK313M

Music + Closed/Open + Budget RM 299 headphones:

[+] Audio-Technica ATH-EP700 (open-back + clarity)
[+] JVC HA-S400 (closed-back + balanced SQ)

Hmm.. thanks for the replies guys, but I'm wondering is there anywhere i can try out headphones (pj kl area) besides jaben? Iirc they don't carry JVC and I'm kinda interested in the ha-s400

Tore down in between the followings :

1. Fisher Audio Consonance
2. FA Eterna
3. FA Silver Bullet
4. AT ATH-CK313iS

All four is around in the same price range. Advise?
wonder the Challenger store at KLCC have demo set for fisher audio to lemme try it. any1 know?

tq

i want to share if this help. for budget over/in ear i got 3 on my hand.

1) Audio-Technica ATH-SJ11 (<rm120)
-small (used by my daughter)
-foldable
-big & deep bass
-clear treble (very?)
-no head padded, maybe hurt
-for general music & movies

2) MEElectronics M6 (<rm80)
-very pro looks (esp clear color)
-same as ath sj11 sound character but lack of deep bass
-little bit uncomfortable if not wear it properly

3) Soundmagic PL21
-mellow (not lump) like jazz guitar
-deep bass & clear treble
-tiredless after hours of music listening
-best wear cable straight down
-physically looks normal, not looks expensive
-best for music & premium cinema movies sound

for music source, all in 1 device (smartphone of course), i'm not recomended android, iphone always right about premium sq. but if you really hate apple, htc's beat sound & sony maybe okay (i'm using modded xperia arc, even stock sq not really good). avoid srs & dolby, they sound crap. samsungs are BIG NO, sound crap.

Guise I'm looking for a headphone at around RM100-RM150,and I have stumbled across these two headphones that is the Sennheiser HD201 and Audio-Technica ATH-M20,which one is more durable (considering I broke a G35 before) and has better sound quality?Any other headphones around that price is welcomed too

-Using on board sound card with no amps,so a decent headphone will do the job
-Using it to monitor,mix,and record my guitar covers
-file format : mostly WAV for recording,and mp3 for casual listening

So if I am down to these cans - Superlux 668b, Grado Sr60i and Steelseries Siberia V1
Which would be the best choice?

For gaming and music with my aforementioned budget of rm260 below. I know I have to top up for Grado

If u don't mind bass get Vsonic GR02 for only RM139

Thanks. While I do love bass, I am not a basshead. Just want the bass as it is.

yah, survey that as well. also Vsonic GR06. RE0 from hifiman also.

Well speaking from experience I think the bass is not overwhelming, just as it supposed to sound. But again sound preference is subjective Anyway for less bass but clear everything else why not get GR99. But not available in Msia.

what is the best headsets for telephone operator?

answering call thru pc and cisco console system

budget not a big problem as it will be paid by company

Hey guys, not sure where else to post this, but does anyone know where I can get my headphones repaired?
I bought a Creative headset, the headphones stopped working but the mic works fine. I'd take it back to the shop i bought it from but i lost the receipt and i can't remember where i bought it from..
Would Jaben repair, even if it's not a brand they carry?

you can ask wala bro about the repairing~
btw is the repairing is much more / near to the cost of the headphone~
buy a new 1~

Please advise on the type of headset connection to both your PC and Cisco.
