thanks a lot guys.. for being very helpful..
i didnt mention that i want a rm500 quality out of rm50 headphone..
i just ask for a recomendation for the best quality rm50 headphone..
i google up for the best low end headphone but most of it is not available here.. and even if it do it still hard to find it..

just forget it.. there is no use to ask about low end product to the people that only know about high end product..
maybe this tread should change the topic to high end Headphones/ Earphones Recomendation Corner
so that there is no other people like me be in here..

Hello guys wanna ask a question, is audio driver on headphone is really important in determining the audio quality, i was confused with such 30mm, 40mm , 50mm etc. I am planning to upgrade to audiophile type of headphone cause my cheap 40mm headphone start to make buzzing sound...

I bought at tong lee in plaza lowyat. The shop assistant there were very friendly and let me to audition the a-jays series and se215 before I buy the se215. But maybe it was because I was a staff of thunder match that time haha.

If you buy se215, don't buy the clear version though because the cable becomes yellowish and greenish after few months. Get the blue version.

Se215 was my only earphone so I used them everywhere. I use them in library because they isolate well and never leak sound. That being said, you don't want to use that when you are working because your boss would be pissed off to have to slap you to get you to respond everytime.

Se215 blue is only 398 in jaben Malaysia. I advice you to buy directly from jaben as they provides 2 years warranty (I believe) and also avoid any surprise cost like customs duty. Jaben also has a lot of earphone for your selection. Most of the iem are available there if not all.

I personally use b&w c5 now. Although I mentioned that I never like the silicone tips but this c5 distribute its weight to the ear loop so it is very comfortable for me to wear. Be warned the ear loop is not for everyone. Personally I recommend the c5 to you if the comfort is no issue for you because it's sound signature is very similar to the se215 except it has much more details and way wider soundstage. I take it as its advantage rather than its disadvantage that it does not isolate that well compared to the se215. I still can listen to my environment while wearing c5.

And yes I know c5 is expensive and you could buy a BA iem for that price. I owned se535 before because I loved my se215 but the BA sound signature is just not for me. sweat.gif

Hello, looking for opinions here

- Your rig- Iphone and laptop
- What type of usage- music, gym
- File format used in your source- mp3 (iphone), Flac and mp3 for laptop.
- Genre of music you listen to- Trance, House, Acoustic
- Headphone/ earphone type- IEM
- Other requirements (if any)- budget less than RM150

more information: I am looking for IEM currently, for gym or EDM music listening. I own a Koss KSC-75 currently, but it is too messy to use it in the gym as I move around alot, so a smaller pair would help.

I would prefer IEM that focus on bass, any recommendation?

i bought a new headphone, it works pretty good at my PC and phone, but a lot of noise on my laptop, same things happened if i connect a different headphone to my laptop.
the noise is very obvious and is there all the time, even i din't play any music/movie.

anyway i can reduce the noise?
also, what is the main purpose of DAC? i tried on amp, the bass become very heavy and i not like it.

no bad intentions but the HD700 is really crappy. Much better off with HD650.

Everyone has their own preferences. I've seen some who prefers the HD700 over HD800. It's a balanced between both, not too bright as the HD800 and not too warm as the HD650.

- My rig. Travel quite a lot. Rely much on I devices (iPod nano and iPhone 5)
- Mainly for muscic streaming and gaming.
- File format. Flac. Alac. MP3 for streaming. Would prefer something versatile. Not too dependent on source.
- Genre. Can't tell no specific genres. If really need one would be soft rocks n pop
- iem
- budget falls around 500-1k
- I would say I emphasize on clarity, noise isolation n deep bass. If it helps haha.
Side note. I saw mid valley selling JVC HA-FXT90 for 500. Is it good??

Please advise thanks!!
