Hey guys , i currently use a FISCHER AUDIO Eterna Rev.1 IEM and  Audio Technica ATH700ProMKii

reason for changing it decided to disassemble itself,due to the glue used in manufacturing that was horrible it's now in a weird form sleep.gif

i want something with decent clarity when it comes to instrumental music and yet gives a solid and tight bass punch

- MacBookPro / iPhone / Pioneer DJ Mixer
- Listening music / movies / DJ-ing ( when i feel lazy to use my Audio Technica ATH700ProMKii )
- everything
- EDM ( electronic dance music )
- IEM

Price range 200-300

a review for the IEMs recommended would be appreciated too biggrin.gif

Thanks in advance

Ok My usage is... erm i have a music workstation >> Kronos
Or let's say it's a synthesizer or digital piano

Headphones i considering...  
AKG K240 MKII(still not understand difference between studio edition)
AKG k550 (worth ?)
Beyerdynamic DT880(Comfort , neutral ?)
Shure SRH840 (Closed back, shy bass?)
ATH-M50(maybe not for my usage... for mixing ?)
KRK KNS 8400(no idea...)

So the question are... do i need headphone amp for kronos?
And which one suit kronos?
My main usage of kronos is making pop song... genre are not heavy bass
maybe someone called it fantasy dream type song ?like japan song

"Many top recording studios use AKG K240 headphones as a solution for best general use for both monitor and playback." - Wikipedia.

From the owner of Sears Sound, the top recording studio in New York where hundreds of top / legendary artistes (http://searsound.com/clients.html) had their hits produced share his experiences with both AKG's mic and headphones.

hi guys, want to spent some money on headphones now laugh.gif seeking for some recommendations as i had zero knowledge on this stuffs. Been searching on head-fi.org, and it seems grado (sr1/sr2) excel in metal songs. but i dont think the design gonna suit metal/rock fans. so now here it is
-just laptop (common realtek cards) and my gnex
- Music and gaming
- mp3 and a little bit of flac
- rock and metal
- closed headphones
- headphones that can keep up with volumes sad.gif seems that both my orca and bh-505 doesnt.

and my budget is anything below a thousand, i really want a performing headphone sad.gif

Hi people. Like to ask pros here to recommend a headphone.

Usage : Music
File format : Mp3/FLAC
Genre : Progressive Rock, Post Rock, Ambient, Folks. Would sometimes be used on Metal/Hard Rock songs either.
Budget : Within 1.5K
Other requirements: If possible, wish the recommendation to be a well-rounded one.

I sincerely hope that nobody would introduce Beats to me.  sweat.gif
