Ex user of ksc75 and sr60, no way 75 is close to sr60.

it sounds much closer to the sr60 than any other phone within the price range that i've heard. how about this, find me something at no more than RM70 that sounds closer to the sr60 than the ksc75 biggrin.gif we will bulk that next time.

do know where you are coming from, if you are coming from the dark side, it will sound bright. as a matter of fact, LOTS of audiophile quality phones will sound very bright...much brighter than the ksc75 i.e. grados, sony sa series, at w5k, even the k701 is just as bright depending on what music you are playing through it.

one thing i gotta agree about the koss (ksc75 and portapro) is that their highs are somewhat harsh. eventhough the portapro is a darker phone, the highs are still harsh..guess that's koss.

laugh.gif burn in isnt magic...you cant turn a px100 to sr60. just let the music play 24/7 for a few days and that'd do the trick

i can hardly decipher what you are trying to say sweat.gif the bass on the ksc75 is good enough, quality bass i'd say. listening to black eye peased on the px100 and 650, the bass sound very phat and tad bloated...as if the sub woofer is about to explode any time. That's the impresion i get from both the px100 and 650's bass playing back RnB and similar genre music.

aih....seems like ive lost 3 phones...time to order them again....i wonder what should i do with them if all 6 of them turn up at the same time LOL.

btw, the ksc75's diafragm is titanium coated, guess it is pretty darn hard when it's new. I suspect burning it in will indeed reduce the brightness. Afai am concerned, I did not think the ksc75 to be very bright smile.gif but the unit i tested was well used.

lol i didnt pull it off the first time i used it. i just find it kinda funny coz the thing doesnt move at all...just pivot left and right a little laugh.gif then i figured i just need to loop it over my ears. anyway you guys can detatch the ear hook and bend it to whatever shape u want to fit ur ears smile.gif the ksc35's ear hook can;t be bent without a heatgun biggrin.gif

u can burn in with whatever u want...it doesnt matter. burning them in at higher volume will speed up the process. Assuming the phone is rated 32ohm, if you listen to a volume of 1 V (dun ask me how i got this..u need a multimeter to test it) the phone draws 31mA, if you burn it in at 2 V it draws twice the current and speeds up the burn in process by one more fold.

oooooo
erm... therefore burning it at a higher volume does not cause the drivers to go K.O issit?

well when it comes to this question, it's all about common sense tongue.gif

just put it at the loudest volume you'd listen to, the phone can take more punch than ur ears. btw, my listening volume is at least 2 X higher than a friend of mine...so....it's not a very good gauge...but it's one way to determine the volume.

it's a decent piece of cans in that price range but i'm afraid there's too much of hype going on here by u-know-who-u-r which brought up the expectations and in the end it's still a decent (if not great) piece of cans "in that price range".what am i talking about?i'm repeating myself.oh well,in conclusion,i hated things being hyped up.anyway CHEERS!

i dun get if this is a postive remark or a negative one. You know if it is not up to your expectation you can easily sell it off with minimum loss/without any loss. i dunno if it's really hyped up or not, it is what it is. but if you had expected somethng that'd sound like the RM1k+ phones...then sorry to disappoint wink.gif u will need bucks to get those stuff biggrin.gif

who is that? I just dun get it blink.gif somebody PM me biggrin.gif

Anyway, I seriously didnt get what the PX100 hype was about, but I surely get ksc75's hype and it's worth what it is. There was a head-fi thread "I believe the KSC75 hype now" laugh.gif

The ksc35 should sound like the portapro...geez....luckily i got a chance to audition the ksc75 and the ksc35's price was bumped up when I wanted to get them.

hey marquis, if you like the ksc75 more than the portapro but prefer the portapro ehadband..u can jsut remove the clip n slap it on the headband....but it will look a little wierd unless you change the whole outer shell tongue.gif

yes you can clip the portapro to the ksc75's clip. this has been done on head-fi biggrin.gif it will basically turn your portapro into an abominatd ksc35 laugh.gif same goes for the ksc75 >.<

yeah i think the px100 is seriously over...overhyped. it was said tha the px100 sounded so good that it should be banned from the street...so what about the ksc75? banned from the universe?

no lar, i didnt mean techno = ah bengz tongue.gif I love techno myself. it's just that people want only bass but they cant distinguish good bass from crappy bass jsut because they listen to techno. phones like the grados do very well in techno, with quality bass, not ah bengz bass biggrin.gif

imho, only grados starting from sr225 and above are good for rock, techno, and other genre within the same/similar family. Anything below are OK but not particularly well. A little hard to put this in words...basically, if you want to get the best out of those music...get something that's 225 n above...if u want an introduction to the grado sound...then the sr60 is a good start (duh...tongue.gif)

I have a question here. Yesterday when I was listening to Enya's new album with my ipod, set the equalizer to pop, it has a 'bzzz' sound in some of the parts, but when I set it to 'flat'. The buzzing sound gone. I am quite noob in this, can anyone enlighten me? The buzzing sound appeared in some of the Fort Minor songs with some equalizer settings.

the ipod equalizer dont work on the headphone out, it distorts everything. it's not a new thing, DONT use the equalizer...unless u are using the ipod's line out
