Jvc fxt90 or might be able to squeeze in a yamaha eph100

Thanks for the input!

Never heard any of the brands you listed here

Sorry but care explain to me why Shure SE215 aint comparable as those 3? Let's say compared to kc06A?

If you want to compare SE215 with KC06A, I would say you'll find SE215 sounds dull, not energetic. SE215 sounds pretty balanced.. the bass is emphasized a little but the bass is flat.. and treble is too controlled, rolled off too fast.

JVC FXT90 is not a bad choice at all
But Yamaha eph100 has durability issue, most of them worn out fast.

Wew, despite the price, i think i got my eye on KC06A already heh, thanks for your recommendation.

TBH, I was expecting being recommended for brands like Senheizer, Shure, AT etc.

Can check out head-fi website. Most of my info I got from there

Especially the multi IEM comparisons (300+ iems tested)

Didn't hear anything about durability except for the fading Yamaha logo. That's all.

Joker recommended me the EPH-100 as its warm signature compared to V signature of the FXT90.

I'm actually just a student so I don't have much cash but recently after some odd jobs here and there I have around RM100-150+- extra and I'm looking to at least get a decent pair of headphones for that price range.. I kinda want something that does not leak a lot of sound because sometimes I listen to songs in the library
What I'm looking for is : Over ear / around the ear / full size / circumaural and I think the term is closed back ( less noise leak?) Do listen to a lot of genres but these days mostly bass heavy like drum and bass , glitch hop and dubstep ahaha would be nice if you could also give the location of the shops that carry said headphone

(tl;dr)version
Your rig (Phone and laptop // Jack = standard 3.5)
- What type of usage : music
- File format used in your source (mp3)
- Genre of music you listen to ( drum and bass , glitch hop and dubstep )
- Headphone/ earphone type (closed/ Full size around the ear)
Budget 100-150

did check out most of the info right after the recommendation of the ostry earplugs, thing is I'm completely new in this thing, so i couldn't really understand the "feel" or "experience" they had with the headphones/earplugs they reviewed

I'm pretty damn new myself. But one thing I do know is that I dislike high treble, the high notes that will pierce your eye

And I like emphasis on mid range and slightly on bass so that it sounds more lively That's why I went with the warm signature, I purchased the Yamaha EPH-100 which is in shipment to my place already. Can't wait!!

Here's a good guide: http://theheadphonelist.com/earphone-buyers-guide/

You can take a look at the vast reviews he makes for so many IEMs: http://www.head-fi.org/t/478568/multi-iem-...-08-21-14-p-958

Feel free to ask him as he's quite helpful

Thanks for the link!

Same as you i'm more into warm tones myself (most probably due to the rock genre), and i am a drummer and bassist myself so I appreciate/listen to the tones of instrument more.

But due to the limited budget i guess i'll just go for what the sifu's recommend

audition it yourself is the best

Uh, isn't the DUNU DN900 around 450? Way out of budget.

Hey,

Where are you shipping the Yamaha's from and what's the total cost bro?

Hi,

What are you thoughts regarding to Ostry KC06A vs GRO7 Classic and IM50?

It's 110 Australian dollars from an Australian website. I'm not sure if they ship to Malaysia or not. PM me if you're interested.

In Malaysia should be more expensive. RM400+ if not mistaken.

Just wondering. How good is the KFC headphones?
Please don't be pissed at Me.

For the price, I would say Superlux. But for the music genre that you listen to, probably hd681 evo is more suitable. More bassy and warmer, but it's not close back.
For close back, can try Superlux HD669, slightly over your budget can consider HD631 DJ

Not sure if I got it right. If you like emphasis on mid range, warm sound, less treble, slightly on bass, you can also try out IEM with typical England sound like HiFiMan RE400 or RHA MA750i if got chance. They are smooth, fuller mids, and musical.
I personally haven't auditioned EPH100 though.

Understand where you are coming from. But I guess what you need, is not only a bassy warm tone IEM, you need also an IEM with good quality of bass that clearly present the details of the lower mids and bass. can give KC06A a try though.

Haven't auditioned IM50 before.
can check out my short review about KC06A and GR07 classic.

wanted to, Malacaan here, couldn't find any Hi Fi store nearby

Justified my needs even more, with my current budget, i guess KC06A is the way to go

Guys, need a recommendation for a good pair of headphones(closed/full sized around the ear) no more than rm100, main usage is for watching movies and gaming. Most important for me is the comfort, a little less on the quality actually since I'm no audiophile, but of course goods sound quality is always better. I would also like to know where I can find the recommended set around kl area. Thanks in advance

I just bought Sony MDR10-BT in the States. It's bluetooth and I choose the codec to by aptX on my macbook.

However, I heard periodic hissing sound when I play this particular piano flac.. I even hear it when I put the cable on.. But, I don't hear the hissing sound when I play couple of others FLAC files.

Any thought?

Corrupted file? Is the hissing sound it's in just the piano FLAC? Have you tried to play it across different source?

Hi.... Lazada is having a good deal at the moment... Check it out.. you may find what u need. Some goes as high as 45% discount.

Is the sound finger lickin' good...

100, full size, around ear...

I think only Philips have... If you can up a bit can go for Sennheiser HD 202, around 160.
