Hello all. A not-so-forum newbie here. Only lurk around when I need to buy stuffs and this time around I was looking for a pair of IEMs. After browsing for a week or so I got to know of the Mylarones which are all the rage for this past year. Since their price is also quite nice I decided mebbe I should go for them. Also, since I'm visiting family in Singapore I thought, why not go to Jaben in Adelphi straight? Hehe.

And so I went there today la. The famous Wilson was there also although he was kinda busy at the time and one of his assistants helped me out. I said that I wanted the Mylars but wanna try all 1st. He said no prob and took out all 4 and started from the XBi all the way to SVi. Stupidly my phone adapter buat hal so I had to borrow their iPod which may have been a good thing.

And so the next hour plus was spent auditioning all 4 phones. Each I tried on 3 different music genre since I'm quite a universal listener and I listened to RnB, rock and jazz on the iPod. I found the XBi quite bassy but was still nice and went down each of it's siblings. At last, I decided on the X3i. Not only did I prefer the sound that it gave off but it was the only phone in the Mylar series that made me smile super wide when I put it on. Sorry la cannot elaborate better on the sound coz me no pro audiophile

So I said that I prefer the X3i and actually a bit gatal to try others in the performance range (note: not price range ). So the assistant let me try Westone's UM-1 and later UE's Super.fi 3 (I think la, didn't really ask the model number but after checking on the net I'm quite sure these were the ones given). UM-1 was quite clinical in my opinion, trying hard to separate all the sounds until they became too....separate I liked the UE's not only for the sound but the build quality was substantially better than the Mylars. But when I knew the price was double the Mylars I said, next time la. Start slow2 1st, hehe.

Overall I must say, Jaben is quite a nice place to be. I think when I venture into the headphones world I defo will drop by here again. And since I didn't have an iPod, I got a USB hub as a gift not an iPod case. Not bad la..hehehe.

PS. I got the Rubies That itself took me quite awhile to decide...

Super glu?    Wont the glu go into the electronic stuff inside  . Maybe use scotch tape  . Btw warranty is 1 year? or 3mths?

Woo, is yuheng or wallabies gonna bring the new jewels in?
