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.
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!

I'm considering ATH CKM500 (most likely), Beyerdynamic XP series and FA Eterna. what do you guys think?

Guys need advice for a gaming headset! Help!

- Your rig: Desktop
- Budget: <RM300
- What type of usage: Skype video calling and gaming specifically. Will not be using for music or movies at all.
- Headphone/ earphone type: Over ear (Supra aural i think?)
- Other requirements: Mic quality is of top importance. I wanna make sure my voice sounds clear, no static at all, etc.

I'm considering Logitech G230, G430, and Razer Carcharias.
Actually not sure if it's relevant to post this here since I'm actually interested particularly in mic quality so if anyone can point me to a more relevant section that would be great!
