Hi, im looking for a good IEM. Not an audiophiles but i do appreciate good SQ.

- Your rig: Oneplus One with V4A and Sansa Clip
- What type of usage: 99% Music during commute
- File format used in your source: mp3 mostly and flac
- Genre of music you listen to: All types of music but listen to rock, hardcore and pop
- Headphone/ earphone type: IEM
- Budget: around RM250

Currently using Byerdynamics XP2 but somehow i feel that my dead soundmagic PL21 sounds better. So im looking for an upgrade for my XP2. Thinking of IM50 and KC06A. Thought pls?

KC06A has the worst isolation, not really suggested for commuting.
IM50 if you like warm sound, plenty of bass and warm midrange.
Or get the Havi B3 Pro 1 for a clearer, less bassy sound but large soundstage, the treble sparkle but not as much as KC06A.

If ur willing to top up a little, consider getting the Vsonic GR07 Classic. Currently on sale at LMUE (but the sale ending today i think).

When i go into vsd3s forum, the review said it is far better than b3 pro1.

When i go into b3 forum, review said it is better than vsd3s and kc06a.

So i think for conclusion, i cant trust reviewer.  I trust my ears more.

Thats why im confuse which one to pick, end up buying b3 from LMUE. waiting parcel to arrive. Im not familiar with all thr jargons that they use, so i just trust my instinct.

I prefer the B3 Pro 1 more than VSD3S. I'm not a basshead but i like my EDM to sound like a club. Large and airy.  biggrin.gif

P/S As well as compared the KC06A.

Im not a basshead too, but occasionally i like to listen to heavy bass music, just for fun. Thats why im having problem choosing the earphone. Im listen to all type of music, but mostly rock, alternative rock, and pop.

Ive short-listed vsd3s, b3 pro1 and IM50 and end up choosing b3 pro1 due to the good review. Im just worried that my Oneplus One would not be a good source for b3 pro1 thou. However, im planning to get Fiio X1 in few months time.

If you like bass, can get the VSonic VSD3. If neutral sounding, Havi B3 Pro 1  thumbup.gif

My Havi pretty much abuse by me daily but still working well  rclxms.gif

Those beyer XP series are truly abominations. AFAIK, not any single pair even last for a year.

Hi guys, do you'll know local shops specializing in headphones? What are the alternatives to online shopping? Otherwise which online retailers is the most reliable/reasonably priced? I reside in JB...
