erhhhh i can sense butthurt so massive.. LOL

simple rule, you do yourself, you pay less, you lazy, you pay for other to do for you..

Simple example, to change a car engine oil is pretty simple, but most ppl send to workshop, as not many ppl want to get dirty with the oil, so you pay for the service.

another example, rooting Android or jailbreak iDevices is pretty straight forward with free tutorials online, but most ppl still pay RM50-100 for phone service to do it, and they do it at almost no cost! (heck just time cost and some electrical).. the price of being lazy

just last night, i read around on how to mod a Grado headphone to woodie, it seems pretty straight forward, it is not a rocket science, but still i doubt if i have time to do it, because i'm a working person..

and, for RM80, no need to mourn la.. how much they untung, RM20-30? just let it la.. unless if they sell something RM1k and out of that RM500 is their profit, then it is really vmad.gif

Hi guys, I am using a sennheiser amperior and I am using my iphone 5 as the source laugh.gif. Music would be in alac (flac) format and I listen to EDM tongue.gif. Any portable amp to recommend? smile.gif Thank you.

what type of music you are listening to?

on rock/metal, i'm using govibe martini+, it bring out the mids on my TF10, tighten bass..

btw, i'm using iPod 5g, problem with the new idevice is the new lightning port, cannot bypas the internal amp.. so basically i'm double amp (default eq and full volume on iPod, then control volume on the govibe). are you will be double amping as well? i'm not sure if this is bad. any comment from other? (due to this, i'm considering to change my source)

Go get the new lightning port to 30-pin adapter, it has DAC built in inside for line out.

That's the risk of operating a business.

You can't prevent it from happening as that is how they operate the business. Jaben can enforce a strict no testing policy but that will treat real potential jaben buyers unfairly just because of this minority of scrooges.

Neither can they say no to particular people if they think they are just there to screw around, or they will be accused of being biased.

So, they just take it in their stride for the sake of the "authentic" jaben customers. This is what you should be appreciative for.

yup.. i really appreciate Jaben for letting ppl to audition stuffs, else we might waste our money for something we might not like.. for me, never have a second thought to go to other shop other than Jaben, except for looking for used items in garage sell. blush.gif
