Hi Guys , Need some recommendations.

- What type of usage: music mostly, occasional vidoes
- File format used in your source: mp3s
- Genre of music you listen to: rock, pop, indie or hip hop,
- Headphone/ earphone type: IEM
- Budget: RM300 - 400
- Requirement : Decent bass ( Not too strong ) , Clarity ( If there is a background instrument playing, I would like to hear it clearly ) , Voice ( When there is vocal, make sure it's clear and balanced out with the instruments behind ).

Thanks !

indoor or outdoor?

if indoor, can go for open headphone like Sennheiser HD 598 or Beyer DT880, why I recommend open headphone is because they are more confort and can wear for long hour, but lesser bass compared to close can.

If u need inear then can just get decent brand like sennheiser cx series, sony xb series, UE series, and get some comply tips, should be confort for u to use for few hours.

i wonder how the ath im50 compares to my kc06a...

i didnt really give it a good listen because i just focused on the hifiman re300 and ostry..

re300 was kind of smooth with a punchier bass but the ostry was more detailed to me. i can even hear the background of some songs from amateur artists.

i thought the im50 was 340+ but now i know its rm250 i kinda regret not giving it a better listen

might just have to buy the im50 too if it sounds good

Hi , just want to ask your opinion on iem listed below ,

Etymotic Research HF5
Westone UM Pro 10
VSonic GR07

2) GR07 discontinued already? Can't seem to find any store that sells them
Uses
1) Mainly gonna pair them with iphone/laptop to hear music/movies

Thanks sifus!

Currently using Edifier H650 Headphones and looking for an upgrade of say around RM150-200.

Usually listen to EDM and once in a while I do mix using Virtual DJ 8 and Cross DJ (iOS).

Hi, it's been long time I have not upgrade my headphone, currently I have Sennheiser HD598 and PX 100-II, I love both because of the comfort, my next pair priority will be sound follow strictly by comfort too, any suggestion? Something like HD598 which is easy to listen to without too much bass, and comfort still my concern, but then it look a bit high profile if use in office, so again if it look more portable like PX 100-II, but also easy to drive then will be perfect:

Sound - neutral, clear transparent, some more than lean bass but not overbloated
Comfort - must be lightweight not cramping
Easy to driver - without using amplifier I prefer

Thanks!

Momentun on ear, great promo in Amazon now

Thanks, but I think comfort is a concern, maybe Grado SR80e?

I am Senn fans and I don't think Grado sound sig any good to me, maybe you are different

Ostry KC06 / KC06A is with solid music body, slightly warm, clean with good punch and tight bass.
RE300H has dark background, smooth with large quantity and flexible bass, better ambience. Suitable for those who can't tolerate with sharp or brighter sound.
Due to the 2 driver design, IM50 has largee sound stage than KC06 and RE300, the connection between the frequency is not as smooth as the 1 driver KC06. Bass quantity is more than Ostry but lesser than RE300H. Details is around same range with KC06/KC06A, but sound is a little bit rough, not as refined. IM50 sounds more open, KC06 sounds more focus.

Thanks, i have a rough estimate of how it sounds like now

Can consider ATH AD900x. Open back. Clean, refined and neutral sound. Not much bass and mids.
Full sized ear cup with velor pads. Very light and can cover the whole ear.
38 ohms/ 100dB/mW. Quite easy to get enough volume.

1. Haven't tried Westone. I have GR07 classic and HF5, i think overall HF5 still has better details.
Sound signature wise, which one is better is really depends on your personal taste. If can audition first will be better.
Both are not bassy iem, more to the bright side. Good details and separation.

2. Still can buy it from singapore.

Hi, just a quick list of suggestions will do tons

Budget : RM100-150
Rig : Laptop
Usage : Gaming (CS:GO mainly, which means a wide soundstage/position identification is preferred) and music
File format used in your source : mp3
Genre of music you listen to : Pop, ballads, tid bit of EDMs
Headphone/ earphone type : Open Circumaural
Other requirements :
- Mic is a plus (due to gaming), but if the mic sounds bad then don't bother I'll buy another mic to go with it

Also, opinions on the Superlux HD681 (EVO or original) and HD668B? And Superlux headphoness in general?

Not sure if right topic to ask this, but what happens if the headphone I buy from Amazon got problem and need to exchange/repair within warranty period?

They have very nice price (almost half price on Senn HD598) even after shipping but this problem makes me think twice. Pls advise, sifu!
