Lets roll V5 here...Please continue the discussion here..

congratulation for V5

Congrats on V5!! Going to share some pics soon.

Anyone any seller / forumer selling authentic M50 limited edition? D:

I owned M50

proud owner of ATH-M50

Hi Guys, welcome to the club....Enjoy and always listening..

bought new AT? the IEM deals from pc fair?

Yup! Hehe~ But my friend is still not back from KL.
Waiting patiently now~

haha ok. good thing im not into IEM else i might have gotten one myself

congrats for v5

here's a pic of M50



This post has been edited by JohnDiew0107: Dec 10 2012, 02:44 AM

M50 out of my budget....how about M35 ??any 2cent for this headphones?

btw...owner list there got my name x2 times

137. herojack41 - SJ11
138. spacelion - AD300
139. aztoiozalan -AD700 (RETIRE)
140. herojack41 - SJ11

do correct

This post has been edited by herojack41: Dec 10 2012, 11:05 PM

For the price point, you won't be disappointed. Tried my friend's M30, I think is a little inferior to the M35, sounds quite good also.

eyeing on that....upgrading my current SJ11

the sound isolation and sound leaking of my SJ11 is just un-bearable for me anymore

Still thinking whether to get Pro700MK2 or M50. Any advise guys?

Thanks

That's a Beats in your avatar, so I supposed you are a basshead? Then Pro700MK2 might suit you better, the bass will blow you off once it's been fully burned-in. As for M50 is a more all-rounder headphone with sufficient bass.

Yeah, will be getting the Pro700MK2 then. Tomorrow will go test the headphone @ Jaben. If perfect, will get it

By the ways, is it ok for me use the Pro700MK2 in public area?

This post has been edited by bizness: Dec 11 2012, 02:53 PM

haha.. Didn't know ATH AD700 is actually a steal in past few days PC fair.
I was reconsidering whether to grab it or not for hours there. Those good patience staffs are so nicely waiting for my final decision.
(the purple color is kinda outstanding for my taste.)

Somehow, it seems selling alot cheaper in US, right?

Overall it seems Good in listening music to me after i watched a few reviews talking bout it is best suit for gaming experience.

Had been driving with Yuin PK2 and IEM for years.
A chance to get back into a headphone for wider soundstage experience.

Is this headphone need some burning process? I found it sound great only i increase the volume. Else the vocals seems kind of 'laid-back'.

p/s: PK2 still seriously impressive than a full-can headphone.. GOSH!

No issue on sound leak, but then you can't really hear the sound at your surrounding as well.

Btw, while waiting for my CK100 to reach me, I'm going to share some photos of my Pro700MK2 after changing to M50's earpads.









After changing the earpads, Pro700MK2 is thousand times more comfy to wear and the bass is even

no ppl use M35?

Looks smexy

Cant wait to get my hands on it soon.

Bro Akabane, can edit my ownership on AT product? Add FW44 ,CKM500 and CKS99 into my name. I really enjoy CKM500 for leisure listening and CKS99 for bass pleasure. FW44 in burn in process, just came back from vacation.

driver is almost the same as my ad900... hmm no wonder it can produce such awesome bass?

there are people calling ad700 bass monsters too after some mods

bro, where u get m50 pads? anyone selling it?

I was lucky enough to tumpang order when Jaben Pg was also ordering the earpads.

i see, my pro700 is very uncomfortable. and i dont want to loosen the grip by placing it between books or so. sked it will lose the bass impact

Yep, my Pro700MK2 was very clampy and tight too when I first got it. And the tightness is not that easy to be loosen as the metal in the headband is very stiff. It didn't do much effect eventhough I used to place it on a tissue box whenever I was not using.

One more thing is the earpads being not thick enough and the pressure is all on the ears. So the best solution is change the earpad since you don't want to loosen the headband tightness. Btw, I've seen people bent the headband just to make it more comfy to wear.

How about the furry headphone?
Btw, you are a girl?

Haven't burn in yet, still sound weird, acoustic guitar is ok though. No, I'm a boy.

yeah, guess i'll try to look for the replacement pads.

i find myself spend more time with my m50 than my pro700mk2 lol

Why don't you try asking Jaben whether they can order for you? Or you can straight order from Amazon or any other websites.

Same here, I only use the headphone for certain genres of music, e.g. techno, dance, trance etc etc in which the beats play an important part. I spend almost all my time with W1000.

yeay ex owner of esw9 lol

proud owner of AD700!

bought it for RM415 during the PC Fair. Can't let a good deal go just like that. agree that outside they are $100 only (amazon), but I still got them for that price. don't want to deal with customs, extra cost, etc

i don't see myself listening with these much any way. probably on live recording only. i have T50RP for that job

using these for gaming and movies mainly

This post has been edited by graphidz: Dec 14 2012, 03:04 PM

wow... major steal... RM415 is still a great deal since you would get the warranty from AT MY and no hassle from Amazon...

u can upgrade the pads... it would lessen the sound leak and increase the comfort zone!

-

This post has been edited by ertai: Apr 9 2013, 09:04 PM

why not? anything over rm500 is easily 10% tax.

So true

Upgrade to what? I need something to at least dampen the sibilance to at least tolerable level like the T50RP...

You have experience with customs bro? Need help because I'm going to get a DIY AMP/DAC from a friend in HK. I wanna be prepared with the amount of money and also negotiation LOL

the pads are exchangeable.. it can really make a difference...

for those who think the purple thing is ugly can repaint yourself... there's lots of DIY which u can "google" although for me the purple is just nice for me...

Lemme see about that... Is there a mod for this?

I like the purple...I think... Oh well

no mod... juz CHANGE the earpads... (u can use other headphone earpads on ad700) u can use W1000 earpads ( which are leather ) to reduce the sound leaks although it can be uncomfortable under hot weather...

This post has been edited by moniqee: Dec 14 2012, 08:00 PM

Ugh.. no thanks. So there isn't a mod to change the sound then? Oh well.

I don't mind the sound leaks. This is one of the reason to get it LOL

I'll see what other mods can be done though

Hey Guys,

Im planning to get a Christmas present for myself very soon and im in a dilemma between these models,

1) ATH Pro500MK2
2) ATH M50S Limited Edition
3) ATH Pro700MK2 ( Im not sure is it available in my region, im in Switzerland currently)

Im a Trance LOVER! Especially vocal and progressive trance so which would you guys recommend?

Thanks in advance and have a nice day!

i just take out my earpads from the ad900 for cleaning, i found there is a lot of dust sticking on membrane of the driver. advice me the best way to clean the dust on the membrane without damaging it.
BTW, there is the metallic grill with holes protecting the membrane.
which way is the best to clean it:
1. use a very soft painting brush
2. use air blower that use to clean camera lens
thanks in advance

i deal with customs a lot. basic guideline is prepare between 10-20% additional of the shipping value + shipping fee combined

---

Added on December 15, 2012, 8:03 pmthe DIY repaint is not as easy as you think though haha

granted, i'm on an ad900 and it is a bit easier than the ad700 (i've opened up my can before due to polish product spill into the grill/foam )

---

Added on December 15, 2012, 8:04 pmfeel free to read up the review on my website (or the previous version of the AT thread here )

---

Added on December 15, 2012, 8:06 pmbest if you auditioned them first.

i cant comment on 1/2 because never auditioned the pro500mk2 myself, and supposedly the m50s limited edition sounds different than standard m50

3 on the other hand, have really damn strong bass and to some, may be a bit overbearing.

---

Added on December 15, 2012, 8:08 pmbest to use 1, however no matter which method you take, treat it with extra auction

problem with 2 is that you may accidentally apply too much air pressure and damage the membrane, where as 1 it should be some what safer.
however for dirt/dust that can't be reached using a soft brush, you may attempt to use the blower to blower indirectly (like from the side) instead of directly towards the driver membrane

thank u very much for the help,Quazacolt.

10%-20%?!?! LOLWHUT?!

That's just...sigh...

Sure thing. Thanks!

Edit : If you meant your website is the pone in your siggy, my Kaspersky warned me of trojan...

This post has been edited by graphidz: Dec 16 2012, 10:45 PM

Custom tax eh... always kena one, when purchasing BDs from Japan. ><

Btw, CK100 reached me few days ago. Enjoicing new stuff

rm500 and above = straight 10%. rm1k above = proper assessment and that time they will bring out your item category and tax accordingly

oh and throw away your kaspersky.

Welcome to the family lol!

so i HAVE to announce how much my item is? if i lie?

LOL that... lemme see..

if shit happens to your package and you under declare, insurance will only compensate based on what you declare

if you got caught on under declare/wrong declaration by customs (eg: its a bomb and you declare it being a toy), you may be charged for criminal offense that is a few k in fine, jail term, or both

but yea sure you can declare whatever you want so long the seller is willing to do it

Aww crap...so my stuff is going to cost about $200. Then I have to ready another $20 for customs...sigh...

Also, I heard that depending the type of item, you will get extra charge. One example is that computer parts are excluded.
So I'm bringging in a DAC & AMP combo, how do I not make it be charged more than he 10% mentioned before?

This post has been edited by graphidz: Dec 17 2012, 11:30 PM

aside from tax exempt/free, 10% is the lowest rate. and you're not getting any lower via legal means

ATH-PRO5MK2 and ATH-CKP300 owner here ...
Add me into the list ... XD ?
Proud of a ATH user ...

@sheenho, I went to Jaben yesterday and tested out the Pro700Mk2, it did not sounded that good. I felt the M50 was way better.

But again its weird to carry the M50 to public right? Feel so awkward. Haha

At last I bought Beats Mixr which sounded way better than both of those and also it suited my need. Each person has their own personal hearing I guess. So yeah

what amp you used?

At the first, I didn't used any amp. Then I tried it with my Fiio E07k

there's your problem right there, lol.

thought of going Jaben for a walk see only...end up now proud to be ATH-M50 owner... LOL

reporting in.... Hi everyone...

lol what a coincidence, I also became a proud owner of M50 today...i mean yesterday

anyway, Im very happy with it.

anyone have any recomendation for a headphone hanger?

was thinking of getting this sennheiser HH10



anyone knows where to get it?

i'm using this hanger



bought for 35sgd

i have that and that wooden stand acrylic stand haha

really?

you got it for 35SGD?

can buy and post for me?
The price here in Malaysia is sooooooOOO expensive. sigh...its hard being a student.

cant lol. i bought it when i went to singapore.
got 1 shop at ion orchard called stereoelectronics

hahah...its ok. Im not serious on it anyway.

luckily now can get free international shipping from Rakuten using the Tenso service.

RM80 for each of it. might be getting some. just need to wait

tenso service charge and what not, it wont be as cheap as you think lol (yes ive did a lot of tenso services too lol)

it says 4000yen waived...if less than that, the shipment will be free.

do you think shipping 2 of this will be more than 4000yen? youre starting to make me worry a bit.

http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/westmus.../4961310805834/

1840 * 0.040 = 73.6
jpn GST is 5% iinm (you're doing domestic shipping, you will be taxed as a normal japanese would be taxed)

rm77.28
*2
=154.56

then add service fee:
http://www.tenso.com/en/guide/fee/index.html

assume its 490 yen la (since they are pretty light, although to bear in mind weight would include your shipping buffer/box itself ya)
* 0.040 = 19.6

total = 174.16
it's well under rm500, so shouldn't worry about tax

wow, so detailed. Thanks for the great calculations.

A seller here offers RM160 for 1 unit. holy that was not worthy for a proper headphone hanger.

if there is a thanks button here I would already pressed 4 times for 4 days.

you're welcome.

i got mine for 11x from local seller gshoppe85 long time ago; no tenso promotion and all so it's very reasonable

oh. It was the price long ago. It was him that said to me now plus poslaju [+]RM160

well, cant blame him. Inflation + usual price increase every year.

planning to get my first ever ath line up, headset ckm-500is, any idea on the sound character?

This is my cheap hanger


DSC_1245_1 by sfoong1, on Flickr

sorry no idea on iem/earphones.

This is my another ~3years old A700 with cracking pads
Anyone knows where/whom to get the replacement pad or a higher end version?

jaben/bluetin

thanks bro

Hey guys, I was an owner of the cks55 and was wondering if you guys have any other recommendation for an earphone from AudioTechnica with decent outputs around the price of the cks55.

Not sure if this helps but I mostly listen to songs with strong bass

Thanks in advance and have a nice day guys

I think they will recommend you the CKS77, although the price is much more higher. From what i have known, the CKS77 uses a completely different driver with CKS55, therefore the sound is completely different.

BTW, i'm an owner of CKS55 too! =D
Really like the strong going bass[not too boomy] and it goes well with my new MZX606!

Hey man, MY A700 had the same problem as well but not as bad as yours.

Already replaced the pads at AT centre in SG. Costs total of SGD36 for both sides. But the pads are the same type as the original ones, not the A700X types which is more towards the leather.

If you have chance, try listening to the CKS99 or CKS1000. I'm a proud owner of CKS99, I really like them a lot! The bass is controlled and powerful, without interfering the mids and spacious sound too.

Sure man Will check it out later.

Any A900x user here? Do I need a soundcard or headphone amp to drive this cans? Mainly intend to use it with PC.

you need either a sound card or DAC, else how you want to plug in your headphone?

amp optional, however most, if not all of AT's cans are low impedance which does not require an amp. however amp will drive most AT cans better especially the bass side.

regardless of your decisions, do audition what amp (and soundcard or DAC if possible) before you buy. for example, some amps may alter the sound signature worse, or just not what you personally prefer.

Wishing all AT members Happy New Year...and soon we will have a major gathering..

Weee AT gathering...

How major is major bro?
