others?...i'm afraid Senn is expensive compared to the performance

This is just not true.

If you dont trust Senn, then go for AKG or Beyer.

ok ..any recomendations?

If bass maybe can consider JVC carbon nanotube series, Sony XB series or the not recommended Monster Beats series. tongue.gif

If you are living around in Subang or Penang can always go to Jaben to try before buy.

I advice you to spare some money for DAC and amp because it will improve your headphone biggrin.gif

- iPod Classic >FiiO L9> looking for a headphone portable amplifier as well, currently considering the upcoming FiiO E12 or E17
- Strictly music
- Any format will do as long as they are not Justin Bieber songs
- Everything except Metal songs and Justin Bieber songs
- Over-ear
- I do not want any colouration, I want songs to be played as much neutral as possible
- Around Rm2000/400GBP as I am in UK now

There are too many headphones out there for me to choose within this price range. I am currently eyeing on AKG Q701 & K701/2, Sennheiser HD600/650, Beyerdynamic T70 & DT990, HiFiMAN HE-400 and many others

or you can just recommend me the source (i didnt buy ipod yet), the dac/amp and the headphone combination around rm3000
*
If you are looking for portable setup I do not think all of these over-ear are portable.

A close-back is more suitable to use outdoor as sound leak is minimal. whistling.gif

Nice suggestions. Will look through them.

As for the TF10 sounding neutral, they are so compared to the previous IEMs I've had which are relatively more colorful in their presentation. Me having changed my cables might also have something to do with it since mids were definitely different.

Get a new cable or take the drivers to make ciem brows.gif

You use what player to play?

Try Klite codec pack then set volume booster, if not understand please google.

And this is not the place for me to discuss this with you LOL
