Hey guys, i want to buy a good and value for money yet not too expensive headphone to enjoy my ps3 experience.

budget no more than RM 200. Can recommend?

that day i saw Philips SHP 6000 but not sure good or not. can advice?

Greetings guys!
And so, below are my basic requirements.

- Genre of music you listen to: Post-hardcore, metalcore
- Headphone/ earphone type: Headphone, closed
- Other requirements: Volume control (optional)
- Budget: Below RM 100 and RM 200

I know I can't ask much with the limited budget but I urgently could use for one for this coming holiday season. thanks in advance.

not much choice beside superlux

Sorry. doesnt know the rules here.

Basically i have identified AKG 512 II but i want to know the sound quality and does it feel comfy when wear it for a long period or not. Please advice.

For your requirement, should consider the AKG K99 instead

Hey sorry everyone, may I know where I can fix UE Super.fi.5 wiring? Looking for a custom one with better quality

FiiO RC-UE1

Thank you for the reply. May I know if you could able to provide such service?

had already PMed you this morning

My Rig: laptop with usb dac
- Type of usage: Music
- File format: mp3
- Music genre: all, but mostly rock / vocal
- Budget: 400-700
- Headphone/ earphone type: closed
- Other requirements (if any): prefer to have something with extra bass kick.

Just noticed and already replied. Thank you.

What I've experienced before:
Audio Technica M-50. Good bass response. V-shaped Frequency curve to my ears. Great for rock. Okay for vocals.
Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro: Customize-able bass response. Hard hitting bass. May be bloated if switched to gear 4.

Extra bass + Closed + Budget 400-700 headphones:

[+] Audio-Technica ATH-PRO700MK2 (DJ monitoring + High durability)
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-WS77 (Solid bass + Stylish)
[+] Audio-Technica ATH-A700X (Rich bass + Audiophile)
[+] Sony MDR-XB900 (Extra bass)

- rig- Desktop and Xperia Ray
- usage- Movie 30%, gaming 20%, music 50%
- File format- common one
- Genre of music- Sometimes love song, sometimes bassy song
- earphone type (Not sure, something like Beats Solo, Closed type?)
- Other requirements- Sound insulation!
Ideal budget - Around RM200 if possible, but if RM300 also ok provided it is much more superior than the RM200 one.
My friend have a Beats Solo, it impress me cause of the clarity, bass and insulation. But this is the only expensive earphone i have used before, so i don't know much about a good earphone, im not an audiophiles lol. Right now im looking for an affordable while providing similar experience like what Beats Solo carries.
I read some reviews about AKG K430 and it looks not bad and price are around RM3xx which is much much cheaper than Beats. Is K430 good? My main point is good insulation since im not a hardcore audiophiles.
