MDR-1ABT is hi-res bluetooth headphone. this is ideal for those who prefer listen hi-res music with wireless headphone

if other brand i can't commend, but if price range around RM900, MDR-1A is very good headphone. i'm listen music with 1A, too

thank you , by the way, do you change the cable? I saw some ppl stated in Internet that this will improve the sound quality, but they didn't mention which cable that they changed.

Audio Technica M50X

Beyerdynamics Custom One Pro Plus (RM690 @ Jaben, can confirm with them)

Highly controversial.
As far as I know, for such short distances the physics and maths says it doesn't matter even if you use a super conductor. It does change, but you wouldn't be able to hear them anyway because the changes are in the hundred thousand Hertz range.

I have noticed a change from changing to a shorter cable (1.2m vs 2.0m), but since I don't have an original to compare it with, and I have had only a short time with it after spending over a year away from it, I'm not properly equipped to say definitely that it does change the sound. Besides, I have modded the drivers before changing the cables (Grado SR60i, easy to open up). The main reason I changed it was so that it could be more practical, and the stock ones have crumpled sleeves so they don't look good.

Some more intricately weaved cables with different metal conductors (silver cladded copper for example) can have different capacitance and inductance which acts like contours and filters to the headphone drivers, which would change the sound. But, the cost of an audiophile grade capacitor and inductor with comparable values do cost much less than an over-engineered headphone cable, and can easily be integrated. No one does that though.

What matters is the connector quality. A robust jack with a proper strain relief helps with reliability and longevity.

woooo, that is complicated, thanks alot for the sharing ^^

thanks, will read the review and compare between them ^^

These are the two most favorable headphones for budget buyers

I personally prefer Beyer sound

i just got a mdr-ex750ap , and my sony xperia m4 aqua shows i can play hi res songs, is it true?

ex750 is alrite for high resolution audio.
phone need proper app to play

hey SonyMalaysia u dont answer any query at all or u just create account for announce event only?

the walkman app recognize Hi res audio tho, it have a HR logo right beside it.

the difference between hi res audio and non hi res


Attached thumbnail(s)

Any sound difference compared to non-recognized-hires Sony smartphones?

anyone plan to go visit FLOW at Sony booth at comic fiesta?

not surprised...

it happened last week......

oh darn, i missed that.

not sure about sony walkman app.
i know mostly other fone will resample to 48khz 16bit.
player app do the work

High res audio need to pair with high res headphones rite? How to check whether the headphone is high res or not?

depends on hardware. Xperia Z2 is the 1st sony mobile phone which supports hi-res audio format, yet due to lacking of amplifier, it needs external amplifier or converter in order to "unlock" the potential of Z2's hi-res audio quality playback

http://blogs.sonymobile.com/2014/10/01/xpe...s-hi-res-audio/

although with proper apps, will allowed some mobile phone to support hi-res audio format, yet, situation might like Z2, need external amplifier in order to allow us enjoy hi-res music playback

yes, hi-res audio player need to pair with hi-res headphone/earphone for allow us to enjoy hi-res music quality playback

for sony, before purchase the headphone/earphone, can check the product's specification. usually sony's headphone/earphone which support hi-res will have that logo printed on the box

other brand, i not familiar. need ask the product advisor
