For RM250 all rounder, i think you can try out CKS55 and Klipsch Image S4, they are well known for their outstanding audio performance!

BTW, you can search for Monoprice and Hippo series, they make decent budget earphones!

I guess you are referring the urBeats that is selling on Lazada. Well, i did bought them as i need an in ear that has 3 button in line mic that works with HTC. For me, if you like those earphone, you can simply get it, as sound quality sometime is quite dependent on our personal taste. smile.gif

Hey guys, been out of the audiophile scene for a while. Sadly my beloved Audio Technica ATH-CKM55's left side has no sound anymore, so I'll be needing a replacement. sad.gif
And does anyone knows how long Jaben's warranty lasts and if they cover 1 side rosak for reasons unknown? lol

Can anyone also tell me how to avoid the 1 side no sound problem? This is actually my first time encountering it, but I know it's a fairly common problem. I NEVER roll my IEMs around my device, i normally fold them like how they're folded in the box when you open them.

My rig:
iPod Nano 4th Gen + LOD + Fiio E11
What type of usage:
Music only
File format used in your source:
Mostly MP3, sometimes FLAC on my laptop
Genre of music you listen to:
Huge range. Rock, Alternative, Acoustic, Electro, House, R&B
Headphone type:
IEM
Budget:
RM150-RM250
Headphones in mind:
Audio Technica CKM55 (again)
Tried but don't like:
Hippo (I don't remember the model but it was around the same price range)
Additional Info:
Essentially I want something with decent bass (enough to make House music sound good) but not too overpowering. I generally like a more neutral and clear sound, with just some bump on the bass.
Also I'm kind of vain, so I'd prefer if they look good. To me the CKM55 actually looked really nice and a lot of my friends asked me about it.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

I've been using my shure se102 for quite a while now and I would like some recommendation for something equal or better a bit in that range since my budget is ard RM200-300.

I'm looking for portability since I'll use in for on the go. Mainly using it for game and ipod. Home pc, rarely since I got speaker to go with it.
Somehow I feel that in-ear isn't that comfortable when using for a long period and was hoping if there's any on-ear worth mentioning. If not gotta go back to in ear again.
I've heard quite a hustle over Beyerdynamics XP? How bout klipsch? Thanks.
*
Well, a lot off people likes Beyer XP as the SQ is really outstanding for such affordable price tag. While the klipsch made some really decent earphone too, such as the high end X series or the image and reference series. Both of them are good. If you dont mind, then give the ATH CKM500 a try, they are well known for the good sound too! smile.gif

Your rig: Sandisk sansa fuze / laptop output
Type of usage: Songs, music
Format: flac, mp3, APE
Genre: pop, ballad, soft rock, indie, jpop, kpop, j-rock
Type of headphone: IEM
Budget: RM200-350
Other requirement: Lost my Hippo Shroom, it was burned in more than 500 hours and I miss it so much. Finding an iem with similar sound signature. Preferrably good mid and treble, decent soundstage, vocals doesn't sound like behind a veil. Prefer bright than dark signature. Comfort would be a plus. NOT a Shure SE215 - tried and doesn't like it.

Thanks!

Thinksound ts01 or maybe CKS55/CKM500? rclxms.gif

Beyerdynamics XP3/XP2

Soundmagic PL30

What's the difference between these 3? Looking for not so bassy durable earphones for music.

Beyer XP2 offers best and most balanced sound performance. =)

Hey guys , I'm currently using the Beyerdynamics XP3 . What's a good option for an upgrade to the XP3 overall within the RM300+/- budget , or if topup RM50-RM100 can get something more worth it I'll probably go with it , thanks smile.gif
