hey,just wanna ask u all guys.

i have a discman but non-branded 1.
play with my panasonic headphone(RP-HT010),it's quite nice the sound.
But play it with my normal earphones(non branded),it's sounds monotonious.

Does the good heaphones/earphone provide decent and good sounds quality to u even it match to ur lousy mp3 players?

both plays important roles. i would say each 50% for player, and 50% for headphone.

for nice cd player, output is nice already, pairing with nice headphone should able to represent the very nice sound out from the player.

it's like this

Nice player + nice headphone = nice
Nice player + dumb headphone = not good
dumb player + nice headphone = not good
dumb player + dumb headphone = don't tortour your eye pals...=P

ahem, torture your eye? laugh.gif

well logically obviously when comparing good vs lousy head/earphones, no matter whether your player is good or bad the good headphone would sound better

if you'd realise his earphones and player above, even the "good" earphones are relatively unknown
i'd guess that they're not in any way expensive

and RM100 for a player is simply ridiculous, what could u get with that? tongue.gif

hmm
even the cheapest good brand,i think is sony,philips or panasonic,aiwa in market standard now.That's for headphones below rm100

For above rm100,i think it should be koss,seinheiser,or bose.But,not yet to use expensive headphones for me to use.No money,still studying. tongue.gif

i think u can get a audiotechnica below RM100 too.

u can try to get the ATH-EQ8 clip-on. very light (23g)... very soft. sound clarity i think it's better than my koss ksc55... bass-wise.. not as bassy as ksc55 but still sound solid and good.

just my 2 cent.
