Probably one of the downside is that they look damn ugly.. the ksc-55 looks nicer, however a bit pain in the ear when using too long

Yeap. Same case over here (right one)

hay guy. now i can hear the potential of this headphone. lol. i found that it's more detailed heaphone compared to PX100. but i love my K26P more because 26 insulate the ambient noise. lolx.

yeah, hehe
the poison source come from this sifu XD

yup, I sold my PX100 shortly after I heard my friend's ksc75. Then started the first bulk, and now everybody has ksc75

you can't go wrong with the phone, although it can be a very bright sometimes.

hehehe and i was so regret that i only buy one ksc75 from alamaklor. luckily after that a lot of bulks carries on.

my GF stole one of my KSC75s to test.

i dont wanna open my other set yet... hopefully she gives it back....kakakkkaaa

i receive my ksc75 from coolerthings last sunday...well,i totally satisfy with it...first impression was,'wau' this thing is really light and the detail is really there,better than what i imagine before.. now i like it more than my hp890(maybe my hp890 not yet get a suitable amp),paired it with my ZL discrete headamp,the detail is really got improvement,sound become more airy and wider soundstage.this headphone really is musical phone,it sound sweet when listern pop song or vocal,but when come classical or orchestra..aha...it sound become unatractive for me....

wanna sell ur Hp890? akabane drjacker interested with it.

nicholas0507, u wanna sell ur hp890 let me know k or pm me....tq

Akabane@DrJackel,
haha....one day maybe,but sure not now la...

if u wanna sell the "can" must sell to me k.....

and ths clip give me some red on the ears. dayum it's hurt.

Speaking of recabling and ksc-75, here's my ksc-75 that is reborned just 2 hours ago by non other than our PcWorks here. Any of u guys here that heard rumours about what these little cable mods can do... trust me, its no rumour =)



Loving this phones now, a little problem occured during the mod, but everything was fine, and oh... my deepest apologies to Tek and Tachikoma for keeping you 2 waiting =(

Took the cable home right after the mod, didnt wanna listen to it first and was thinking to get home,bath,get into the mood, then properly audition it. Unfortunately, hands was itchy while waiting for dinner... so i listened to it while waiting for my dish to be served....

was pretty noisy back then, didnt have the chance for in-depth analysis, however, the most distinct difference are the more balanced tone. For me, the only drawbacks for the ksc-75 was the highs, it gets really annoying for some tracks and its way too bright for my liking, the recabling get all that back to balance, and somehow on tracks like "hotel california", "True Colours - Emi Fujita" i do notice slightly improved bass impacts...

well.. thats all for now, im dead tired. Once again, thanks to Tachikoma for the ride home =)

u sure recabling ada increase in performance? or in a more suitable words, increase the listening experience/pleasure? or it just a placebo effect? as for now, im impressed with the detail produced by my ksc-75, compared to old px100.

I'm comparing by memory here, but I think the recable does make the ksc-75 sound somewhat less muffled (sorry lah I'm used to more detailed phones =P), and... how to say arr, more refined perhaps? The recable... whether its worth it or not is subjective, but don't expect an improvement like say, fitting a skyline engine inside a proton wira... (assume that this is physically possible, kay?)

tachi..the ksc75 was never muffled ler. maybe it was the other canalphone that was in your ears yesterday lol. As for me, the recabled 75s have improved bass response and a tad improvement on the clarity and a slight decrease of the highs which can sometimes can shrilly..and ofcourse all this is IMO and YMMV.

as for your detailed headphones .. me likes the dreamy one

It does increase my listening pleasure, placeabo effect? nope i dun think so... it does makes difference, well.. at least for me it does. I do think each of us has different taste in sounds, an RM5k cans can sound just like a RM50 to the ears of some. (just like a colleague of mine )

One thing thats for sure about the ksc-75, the difference of a properly burned-in and a brand new ones. My ksc-75 is nearly about a year old, and last 2 months i got another new set which was meant for my gf, both of them really sounded very very differently. Especially the highs which are much much more subtle than of a new ones.

Anyways... i do enjoy the recabled ksc-75, for the price (RM80+45=120)... i doubt i can actually find something that sounds better and as comfortable as the ksc-75... though i actually find that the new cables are a lil too flashy to my liking

Statements above are all just IMHO.

muffled...? i think its the opposite

for sure, the spark plug which is around the same price as ksc-75 do perform EXTREMELY bad, and very very "muffled" is the proper word to describe it. Never expected the same brand with a close price range can be this much of a difference

And yea, i do prefer the "dreamy" types as well, sometimes, certain details can be a spoiler to a pleasant track and its better not to hear them

*cough* that dreamy headphone he's talking about is the SR-Gamma Pro electrostat which is anything but un-detailed =P and I meant "muffled" in a relative way... as far as cheapies go they're not I suppose. But IMO the KSC-75 does lack some extension in the upper end (and yes, a headphone can be sibilant and still lack treble extension)
