QUOTE(walabies @ Jan 15 2007, 04:53 PM) SR60..no impact..just bloated bass, sumwat deep but just a toe in the water kind of deep. however, its EXCITING like kelisa said, because its freaking cheap and can be driven so nicely withouy any usage of an amp, so i can minus the amp from my equation of MD-SP+SR60="Excellent Portable Sounds". SR60 could not be a serious listening thing..it has too much weaknesses tat i dun care to list. Sorry guys..but at its price and size, and mobility, its a big score for me!QUOTE(walabies @ Jan 16 2007, 04:07 PM) You know why?

Haha..maybe la..but as sweet as RS1 on certain instrumental rock guitar track, i wouldnt turn it higher..the k701..mcm tidak kuat..but volume quite high liao..or maybe placebo..or maybe im becoming deaf (but my SR60 is driven at a very low volume) or maybe k701 jus need higher volume due to being harder to drive?
