hahaha..i'm using AD2000 during sleeping .....

LOL Nightstalker1993. That was me! Subang Parade's Digital One-- or did you see me in Parkson after that? The amp was a FiiO E5. Small sized chick with a large sized handbag, yes? I was testing out the amp with the KSC-75 after I bought a cheapo 3.5 to 3.5 interconnect and a USB cable (I suspect the shop hammered me on the USB cable price, seriously. Not buying from them again!) to charge the amp with, since I got the KSC-75 and E5 from Darkchaser second hand (third hand in the case of the headphones), and he didn't include the interconnect cable or USB cable. All working fine, and the amp REALLY helps with powering the KSC-75: my current player is Samsung YP-U3, and is ridiculously underpowered, can't power the headphones worth a danged thing; even with amp still needs high volumes.  Can't wait till my Sansa Clip+ gets here. Also want to get a custom 3.5-3.5 interconnect, but must wait for later time, since I just plonked RM390 on Edifier C3 and am broke for the next three months.

Pc Bro, sure lifetime warranty? You said it not me! Though am no Leng Lui by any stretch of the definition... thanks for the advice on the headphone clips; though I think it was me not used to putting on the headphones properly. Finally managed to get them on right. LOL.

terradrive: Yeah-- also good luck trying to play anything loud enough to hear on KTM without an amp. Tried that. Not good!

Experience so far with KSC-75 plugged into my laptop's onboard soundcard, Foobar2k (plugins used: ASIO, resampled to 48kHz with ultra mode on, advanced limiter and skip silence), all source files at 192 kbps or better, most being FLAC: Sounds good, about equal to the other set of good cans I own, the Beyerdynamic DT231 in some instances and better in others. Bass is quite ample and clean on listening to Vienna Teng's "Augustine" and some AC/DC and Metallica; however I think the bass has more oomph on the Beyerdynamic. Details are clear listening to Sigur Ros and listening to "Silhouette" from Mike Oldfield's 2008 album Music of the Spheres is a treat as Lang Lang's piano sounds like drops of water falling into a still pool, and each pluck of the guitar on Trace Bundy's "Acoustic Ninja" is as sharply obvious as sand on black paper. Can hear all the various instruments nicely when listening to Trevor Pinnock playing Bach. And Kate Bush sounds very detailed and clear, not at all muddy, all layers coming through. Highs are fantastic on all tracks, especially on Vangelis' "Rachel's Song" from the Blade Runner soundtrack and the Tallis Scholars' "Spem in alium". Vocals on these tracks sound even airier with the Koss. The separation of all the various voices ("Spem" has 40 parts total), the clarity and detail on "Spem" is lovely with the Koss.

Feel: a bit loose on the ears, so I have to keep adjusting. Otherwise it's quite comfortable, though the foam is a little scratchy. Am planning to try and see if i can get some Plantronics leatherette ear cushions and see if it helps any with a little extra bass and maybe more comfort.

Portability: the recabled cables are kinda stiff, but at least they don't get extremely tangled like my other 'phones. XD Otherwise, easy to carry around! Thumbs up to PcWork's superb job with the cabling.

Overall I don't regret plunking RM100 on this KSC75. Worth every sen!

or did u buy the usb cable from my shop? The one directly opposite the escalator. O.o

sorry to say, but everything in my shop is overpriced! >.<

left side not working now, wonder if sifu pcwork can revive it?

I think so. Opposite the escalator? You on the lower floor right? The shop next to the place selling all the PC games? I tend to go there often, but the prices are crazy high. Kena hammer already.

PcWork can probably revive it-- but depends what's wrong with it. Someone had this kinda of problem before and asked right here. If cable rosak or contact spoil I think no problem. However if it's a problem with the voice coil or something and you somehow managed to screw it up... no help for it, have to replace already.

Akabane sensei, looks like it's really clunky, that AD2000-- how can you sleep with them on? For myself, when listening in bed whilst falling asleep, I use speakers.

yeah, in Digital One! I am working there part time in one of the shops. I think you entered, and left. Not too sure as i was serving some other customers that time, but the white-blue cables and the Fiio amp definitely caught my eyes. LOL!

argh! I miss my KSC-75

got it for free from a good friend of mine

I found out that while the koss is harder to drive, I only need about half the volume on my cheapo creative mp3 player to run it at enough volume level.

Running on louder volumes to drawn out outside noise while on noisy environment listening to this open headphone is a big no no. It's time to invest on IEM if plan to listen on the go.

I didn't listen to my ksc-75 much anymore since after kramer mod it sounded harsh and very bright and trebles sounded artificial now. I haven't compare to unmodded ones atm.

RM 100 for the price is quite good. especially new recable ksc75 is RM 160.

by the way. imho Fio is not really a good amp to push KSC75 according to my personal preference.
try a secret amp / secret amp prototype. then u will probally love ksc75 even more.

from the way you post. you seems really know a lot about headphone. haha.. in fact i am working to find a softer cable solution for ksc75. though there are some alternative cable which is soft. but the sound isn't on par with the current cable i used. =.=
anyway..glad to see girls that are interested in headphone starts to appear up in malaysia. else we this bunch of guys in lyn audiophile audiophile forum / gathering for audiophile sounds like a gay club...... though moniquee is girl. when my attemp to ask her out for audiophile gathering sounds really weired. it's like some weired uncle trying to cheat small girl come out and buaya her.. HAHAHAHA       .imagine an audiophile gathering with a bunch of hamsap guy (Example :  Enigmatic) and a girl alone.. seems damn weired..

oh poor enigmatic  

sorry darth. i got ur PM.
i try to post within this week so u have christmast item to play with.
a bit busy with some molecular study. that i practically not free at day time. only night i can free a bit because they closed the lab.. =.=

haha...i think enigmatic is try to build some audiophile road to this girl girl....anyway that time i also shock went she purchase m30 frm me..at same time give some special service -to help her burn in for a day lo...then sent to via courier...just curious haha...anyway moniqee no worries..wanna try a high-end AT you can pm me..i can meet u up at borders starbuks  time square- if you see a guy who using woody at the starbucks mostly is me...

oh god akabane's buayaing moniqee liao

Even though I tried out all those high-end headphones and owned some myself, right till now I'm still using the Pcwork recabled KSC-75 some of the time Just to show how great the recabled KSC-75 is
