looking something durable and good sound quality

SoundMAGIC PL30 for a balanced sound or E30 for stronger bass

Hi, I've been using Beyerdynamic XP3 until it stopped working a few days ago. It is now producing distorted sounds.. I think I got it at the beginning of the year. I wonder if I've been too rough with it? I bring it to uni every day and just kinda stuffed it in my bag compartment.

So what do you recommend for a budget of around rm200? Any recommendation is appreciated!

I'm looking for an iem btw.

Its still under warranty. Why not just bring it back to Jaben?

But I lost my receipt, I only have the box. Will they layan me?

You can PM walabies to ask the warranty issue.

SoundMAGIC E30

- Your rig: PC
- What type of usage: Gaming, but not too hardcore. Music
- File format used in your source: .MP3
- Genre of music you listen to: Mostly prefer acoustic covers, classical (those orchestra epic music), contemporary rock (I really like songs with good lyrics). I stay away from techno and heavy metal music. Just don't fancy them! (nothing personal)

Headphones. I'd prefer if comfort was prioritized. No mic required since I'm planning to invest on an external USB mic.

Budget around Rm150 (stretchable)

Was thinking of some of the Superlux's, though I was told that they're not comfortable. There's the audio technica SJ33, Sony MVR-55 (Someone selling second hand), and... Koss Porta pro?(it looks like it might not be good enough to fit my needs though, but the reviews are penomenal!)


Oh and as a comparison. I've been only exposed to gaming headets (Razer carcharias and Corsair vengeance 1500). I've heard that these gaming headsets are quite a rip off and that I could get better sound quality at lower prices. My current headset (vengeance) doesn't suit me mostly because I have a long neck and the weight really makes my neck sore after a few hours of use!

Thanks!!

Just tried my new earpods, they sound pretty good

but if you're buying in MYR it's gonna be exp

Thanks for the infor! Appreciate so much! How about Beyerdynamic XP3 if compare to VSONIC GR06? AiAiAi and AKG is over my budget. Munitio Billets look alike bullet shape....feel a bit weird....Only VSonic GR06 look ok for me.

If you like the signature of Beats tour and Klipsch S4, Beyerdynamic XP series can be a good cheaper alternatives.


Beyerdynamic XP series earphone

Get the Audio Technica TAD300, comfortable and pretty good in sound. You can try out AKG K511 as well, good budgeted headphone.

For clean and clear sound, go for V-sonic or Hippo ProOne. You can have a look at Klipsch earphone too.

My recommendation will be AKG K511.

Hm, have you tried any of those before? Another poster recommended the AKG KC44's.

More options...Harder to make decision haha.

I'd favor AT's though, just because they look good.

hm Beyerdynamic XP? i heard there's a few models of XP? can you recommend which one's the best for me? i mean for the bass. thanks.

try xp 1 for the bass
