Haha, I am not up to that fanatic level yet. Won't getting amp or at least not now.

If you want bass right away, get EP630. The Creative earphone produces strong bass already as you recently bought it. The Koss however, takes some time to produce the amount of bass that EP630 can produced, you need to burn it for a period for the bass to improve. However in the long run, the Koss worth more because of its details and clarity of sound

Added on November 2, 2008, 6:40 pmMe too not fanatic yet, probably will only buy my first amp or DAC next year... Wait a minute, are not we only two months before entering next year?


I can't believe how poisonous this sub LYN thread Audiophile. I still remember only several months ago I didnt know any existence about amp or DAC, and never even heard any names such as Creative EP630, Koss KSC 75, Sennheiser, AKG, Crossroad, etc... Those names are too alien to me when I first read them in this forum, Now I can even know how each brands can give different sound flavors and also their qualities!!

Bravo~~
Keep it up, but not to burn a hole in your wallet..

Welcome to... "Lowyat.NET - Insanely Addictive"

I'll do my best not to over spend my money, not to forget that I'm still a student with no real earned income yet. Phew, this is not easy to accomplish unfortunately for me. Maybe If I try to visit LYN less frequently might be helpful to save money

I wan bass, but its not like I am pure bass head, can ignore other sound quality. It would be better if it is good overall, and I did mention that sufficient bass is enuf for me, too much bass gives me headaches...

CREATIVE EP630

Thanks a lot~

you want yeah_guyz scold you again?

+1 design for KSC75
-1 design for EP630

KSC75 is way cooler than EP630. Imagine a person wearing KSC75 and a person wearing EP630. Which one cooler?

You can use Koss for jogging since its a clip design, EP630 will falls out of your ear if you jog.


Plus the EP630 design maybe too humble for our Asian fashion taste, it lacks the flashy flashy. People might just think that you actually only wear a typical handsfree instead of nice earphone. The Koss on the other hand may attracts little extra attentions however


Oh one more significant con for EP630: microphonic effect! When you are walking, and EP630 wire in contact with your shirt, you will experience unpleasant noise that call microphonic effect. If I'm not mistaken the Koss does not have this problem

seriously, i'd prefer to be low profile
i don't think i will wear my KSC-75 on the move, one of the reason is it does not isolate noise, and another is it will be weird to wear it outside

You are no different from me, I was also hesitating to buy the Koss initially due to its flashy appearance. I asked jiaxun whether is there humble and less attractive black color version, he said no

actually there is one, KSC-35, but it's less comfortable to wear, and for some reason it is much more expensive than KSC-75 although it is an older model (according to the website)

KSC-75 only got 1 colour lo brother. You want black maybe you can be the first to paint it black

I'll try to do that in later future when its badly scratched already. Black paint to cover the scratches

no need to wait so long. now do it
then you will officially be the first in LYN to paint it black!

i have both EP630 & KSC75, after using KSC75, i can tell you no way i will wear the EP630 again!

i find that the EP630 bass is too much, not my type.

becareful not to spray the paint inside the holes. the casing itself is the spider for the driver.

so if u drop some paint into the holes of the casing, it will directly stick on the membrane. hence might influence the sound as the membrane might not vibrate in straight line anymore as increase in weight on some part of the membrane. and the paint that harden will reduce the flexiblity of the membrane itself too.

Nice to have someone like you who can enlighten us regarding the technical aspect of headphone. Can I just take out the casing, separating the casing from the driver? Is it technically possible?

I remember there were a case where a seller was selling fake EP630. Many buyers complain too bassy. Where did you get the EP630 from?

anyone know which one is better between yuin g2 and ksc75 recabled?

Yeah! Get my baby today!!!
After leaving a negative feedback at poslaju!! Wahaha!!
Pairing it with my Audiotrak Prodigy HD2~~
