Your rig - laptop, ipod, ps3, tv, phone (for all purpose laa) What type of usage - Music, Movie File format used in your source - Multiple sources Genre of music you listen to - All kind of song Headphone/ earphone type - No preference/ try and sendiri rasa Budget - below 700
I see online some people say laptops don't have a good audio system. so a good headphone is quite a waste since can't use to full capability. and I think this applies to most of the rig I listed. Thus the reason I ask the previous question. the amp is to support the laptop audio and give a better sound.
So, which is better?

Onboard soundcard actually do it's job well on DAC part but it doesn't provide good amplification to higher end headphones especially the ones with higher impedance in it. Headphones that doesn't have enough amplification will not sound accurate ( bloated bass, sibilance issues, etc) That said what you need right now is to have a headphone with low impedance so that you can enjoy superior sound quality while at the same time you can collect more money to get better audio component later on. For you I suggest getting much cheaper headphone such as superlux HD669 since you're not sure yourself what sound characteristic that you liked most. This will save you a lot of money srsly

Tx for the recommendation. Where to find most of the headphones listed? I rather test it by my self than just buy based on reviews by people. not to say the reviews are bad, just personal preference.
in KL, where can i find most of the headphones in one place? malas laa nak jalan2 bnyk sgt.

You can always go to Jaben Malaysia to test the headphones out https://www.google.com.my/search?q=jaben+ma...firefox-nightlyWell since you're going to try I guess you can forget getting the superlux instead just buy whatever that is suitable with your budget in Jaben. The people there are friendly so it should be ok
