Hi guys, first time here on this thread. Looking for a nice pair with my requirements stated below, please suggest.

1. Budget: +-RM400 (not real budget, if it's something really worth it I can go up to 800 max)
2. Using for casual music listening only, mostly J-pop.
3. Will use for both my desktop PC at home as well as my phone.
4. MUST be over ear, closed type.
5. Mic is not a necessity but would be nice to have to use on Skype on my desktop PC(currently using a cheap RM10 standalone mic).

Hi, I'll need some recommendation for in-ear headphones.

Rig: iPhone 5s
- music only
- AAC via itunes
- heavy metal, jpop/rock and occasional ballads
- previously use A Jays 4, currently using t Jays 4
- looking for in ear type earphones only, and in-line mic for answering calls

I like the sound of my current t Jay 4, but I'm looking for something which gives higher clarity for mids & highs. I don't need thumping / super heavy bass. Subtle bass response without drowning all the other frequencies will be just nice.

I travel everyday on the lrt, so if the buds can provide a better noise isolation will be a plus for me.

I've searched online and found the Etymotic HF-3 which ppl give good reviews. Just wondering is there any other alternatives that I can consider? Do I need to get something with dual/triple drivers? Budget is within Rm800. Thanks

Hi, am looking for a headset to replace my old HD558s. Been trying around a few headsets but I would like to see what you guys can recommend. So far I'm still deciding between the Final Audio Pandora Hope VI at the lower end of my budget and the HD700 and Beyerdynamic T5P at the upper end.

Rig: PC and HTC Butterfly. (Might be getting a high powered music player or DAC/AMP soon)
- music only. But will also be used for gaming.
- Lossless/FLAC/DXD/DSD
- Multiple genres. Dubstep, Rock, Rap, Acoustic, Classical, Progressive House. Too many to list. tongue.gif
- Currently using HD558 and UE900s.
- looking for circumaural headphones for music. Closed or not doesn't matter. Home use only.
- Good solid bass, lush mids and controlled highs. Not too forward or bright sounding. Little warm and laidback will be fine.
- Budget: RM2.5-4K. The lower the better.

Hello, I haven't been on here for a while but the last time I was recommended to purchase my Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro.

In any case, I'm looking for a new pair of headphones and here's my requirement info:
Budget: Anything Under RM5000
Rig: Home entertainment system, Ponoplayer, laptop, desktop, MP3 players, Sansa Clip Zip, etc
Usage: Music, gaming, movies, etc
File Format: FLAC (16 bit, 24 bit, etc), MP3, WAV, etc
Genre of music: Rock, classical, house, acoustics, vocals, heavy metal, trance, basically everything.
Headphone: Circumaural headphones (but not too heaty, as my ears sweat easily with the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro)

Thanks in advance!!

the only way for less heat is with open cans, are you fine with sound leakages and virtually no isolation hmm.gif

recommend me a headphone (not earphone) not above rm100, must have microphone. for gaming, music and movies. the cable I don't want coil type. thanks in advance

firstly, think it is quite rude to put up a request in big red letters. nobody here owes it to you the answer.

secondly, please read the very first post and use the format as recommended.

thirdly, at your budget and numerous demands, just walk into any IT mega stores and pick up the very first headphones that fulfill your needs. you are at the audiophile section not pasar malam.

Hey sifus , please give me some guidance since I am new in this field and know no audio terms..

Gig - mainly iPod nano/shuffle and for laptop usage occasionally

Music genre - soft , classical , pop and accoustic

Type - IEM

Type of usage - Music and movie. Prioritize music usage.

PS : I have used my brother's 'Razor/Razer' before and it is quite decent. It was below hundred that time he bought it , few years back then.

Budget - 100-150 should be fine as long as the quality and value r there.

Other requirements : the sound/voice should be as 'clear' as possible , within my budget

Thanks a lot . Value and price are very important for me as I am juSt a student..
