xba-40 would be 40 BA then lol.
IINM the new ones have Y-split cord which is good. Never liked J-cords.

QUOTE(Ask_Yip @ Oct 21 2012, 12:29 PM) I like XBA-3 and EX1000 I only enjoy the xba-4. Not enough to buy it though. So I just visit harvey norman stores or sony centers once in a while to demo the xba-4 a few songs. |

Hmmmm... tempting price for the H3
Anyone knows if they're for demo yet on the Sony stores? |

Was at Sony Center KLCC yesterday.
The new hybrid XBA series is already for sale there. Unfortunately not for demo though  I did try both the XB920 and R1 MK2 headphone. The new R1 is quite different than the older one from my memory. MK2 seems to have boosted treble. XB920 surprised me. Not bad for a so called "xtra bass" headphone. Quite clean and detailed, isolates way better than R1 and the bass is actually not that wild  |

QUOTE(un_id @ Nov 23 2013, 03:47 PM) i have XBA-3 in my collection.. it gives me mix feeling.. detail, isolation is awesome… but, i'm not quite satisfied.. i want more.. is XBA-40 a worthy upgrade? anyone can advise? The xba 4/40 is more or less the same with 3 only with added "sub woofer" BA. If you search for rinchoi's blog,thinking about T-peos H-200 as well.. hmm.. but as of now, the most worth-every-penny to me is my hifiman re-400.. considered cheap, but very good sound for casual listening and very comfortable to use. i'm looking for something that can beat it in term of price over quality the frequency response is nearly the same between both models. My 2 cents, I prefer the xba4 more than the xba40. Xba3 which I've auditioned many times is not far off. I consider it a sidegrade instead of an upgrade. Maybe you can try Vsonic GR07. |
