QUOTE(dembaba9000 @ Dec 9 2013, 05:32 PM) actually ........ i know Have you try the ASG-2 yet? maybe i sent the wrong signal to him i'm sorwie bro memories_fallen. anyway 3k+ asg2 vs. 1k asg 1.3.....which one shud i go for?? If not, best to audition it first before you plonk 3k for the iem. For that kind of money, you can also try the Shure SE846, Senn IE800i, etc. I'm not trying to throw a wet blanket, but I was never impressed with the ASG-2 after auditioning them for 2-3 times. I also don't know what the hype is of this iem over at head-fi forum Anyway, this is just my opinion and do audition them and if you like the sound, go for it  |

QUOTE(munak991 @ Dec 30 2013, 02:01 AM) Guys just a curiouscity, The 800 and LCD2 have totally different sound signature.if change HD 650 to HD 800 isit big improve or directly to Audeze LCD 2? which has better improvement? does it sound really different from AUdeze and Sennheiser? While I do like the bass and mids coming from the LCD2, the weight and the clamp force will give me nausea after 30-40 minutes. In fact, the much heavier Abyss gives me more comfort than the LCD2. In total contrast, the HD800 is among the most comfortable headphone I've ever tried. They are very detail and analytical that some users need a break after a few hours usage due to their treble. I'm using mine with WA7 and it surely helps to smoothen the treble and bring out the mids and bass. |

QUOTE(NoobHacker @ Feb 10 2014, 11:11 PM) okay sorry i didn't define my needs properly, i know there are no best IEM like, this is the best iem you could get just get this and forget the others. If you want relax and neutral, I don't think Senn IE800 fits your bill.I'm looking for IEM below RM10k (allows overbudget, just don't want gold plated or diamond plated things, and ready stocks in audio shops if possible), and don't want custom IEMs of weird shape and transparent shells (for female use, they don't like it) looking forward to AKG K3003i or sennheiser IE800 but the AKG have some parts i don't like which is mentioned above, and IE800 too, please advise. *prefer relaxed and neutral sound signature I would suggest FitEar TG!334, which should cost you about RM5k -ish. I had this earphone for almost 6 months but had to sell it to part finance for my custom. It has relaxing sound signature and it excels for vocals, esp. female vocal. They are not what you call neutral though due to the elevated mids. The bass can go very deep, though not hard hitting as IE800 or Shure SE846. I do find the high frequency a bit roll-off, and some users will try to overcome this weakness by using silver or silver-plated cable. |

QUOTE(NoobHacker @ Feb 11 2014, 08:20 PM) sorry, my sister just updated me, even she has $$ but shes not willing to spend too much on this.. small thing.The price of AKG K3003i is maximum for her, and she definately doesn't like weird shapes and transparent shells. If possible, the IEM should be available in audiophile shops, she don't want pre-order. ( i see some shop have ready stock for shure 834(if i recall correctly) and sennheiser IE800), are they any recommended IEMs, or better than AKG K3003 in this price range? Honestly speaking, at the price range of 3003i, IE800, TG!334, SE846, S-EM6, etc, it all down to preference.There's no better, just different. So if she prefers vocal, TG!334, SE846, S-EM6 are good options, thought the 846 only comes in clear/transparent shell. I know these 5 are readily available in Singapore, not sure about KL though. Some other TOTL iems that other recommend like UM Mentor, universal Roxanne might have to pre-order. |

QUOTE(IwanAGP @ Mar 17 2014, 01:02 AM) Guys, any recommendation for earphone/headphone at sub-100 category? If you're willing to order from Taobao, why not try the Xiaomi Pistons2?Was using Dunu Trident until... The right side sounds really tiny. With my laptop, I still can tweak the balance between left and right to make them sound even but hard with phone. Just casual usage (song, movies etc). Now using back my Creative EP-630 (all other earphone bought after this broken) which still refuse to die  Should I order Dunu Trident again from Taobao?  Build quality "looks" tough that I never expect it to break so soon yet it did...Good value for a US$25 iem including shipping |

QUOTE(+3kk! @ Jun 4 2014, 03:49 PM) i have a question, Like what E1 - AKG posted, speaker > headphone > earphone.i have a budget to go for a flagship (well a new one), its either headphones or IEM. im a huge senn fan, so im thinking of a HD800, on the other hand im contemplating if i should get/upgrade my IEM to a top of the line CIEM. which is more worth it, im not really bothered about portability juts want better sound quality But speaker rigs you need to consider room acoustic also to get it right. For HD800, source matching is another headache. Some people spend more than 2 to 3 times the cost of HD800 itself on an amplifier and cables to get the synergy that they are looking for. So the easiest might be CIEM, but bear in mind that CIEM has low resale value, so audition as many as you can before you commit This post has been edited by widget: Jun 4 2014, 04:48 PM |
