just bought EP630 y'day.

Do I have to burn in ?

I got EP630 and Philip SHE9500 too.
I feel that PHilip is better. but i have read from the review from other website. saying Creative EP630 is better.

Don't you guys find EP630 a little too bassy? Seems cool in the beginning but after about 1 hour or so, it gets too muffled.

for ppl who like bass..
ep630 is quite nice...haha..
headphone is depend on the user like...
sum ppl like bassy sumbody like clearity...
haha...depend on ppl 1 lar...
suk,
ep 630 need to burn in...
it will improve alot...

it is quite bassy.but after burn in the treble will come out.but still,it is a bassy earphone.

Most who claimed the EP630 better are basshead I suppose. Truthfully, there are hardly any unbiased headphone reviews out there because the review might be influenced by the sound taste of the reviewer. Basshead claimed the EP630 is nice, but those are not would say otherwise.



Biased short review from me: I also think the EP630 is bassy, my Phillips SHE8500 produces more clarity although less bass. I prefer clarity more than bass

bass or clarity is a matter of adjusting the EQ.. try it with SRS Audio Sink

A good earphone does not need EQ adjustment. Some refuse to play with the EQ because they want to keep music as it is in original form instead of distort the music. EP630 is bassy for me, although its fine with other listeners. Reducing bass in EQ will distort your music, which I prefer not to do.



The EP630s in eBay are located in China, and sell at half the local price. Come on, by common sense if its cheap and located in China, you know its too good to be true - I believe they are fake EP630. In Malaysia also has many fake EP630s circulate in our market. It is hard to find original ones, even in Lowyat Plaza the retail shops there were fooled to think they were selling original EP630s until the buyers found out they're fake actually.


I maybe wrong however, as the eBay seller has POWERSELLER batch on his/her chest

they might be OEM product.

these days a lot of stuff come from china.. melamine also

I bought my EP630 for RM99 from one of the big IT shop at Low Yat... Wonder where can find it for less... So, is RM99 considered expensive & is it original? Any idea how to see if it is fake?

I'm using it with my SONY NW-E015F. Using it with EQ, Clear Stereo & the works "ON". Guess it's not considered a good earphone?

Anyway, I kind of like the sound... sounds quite clear & of course the bass. However, after using for about a 2 months I suddenly realise there somthing missing from the sound quality. Don't know what it is cause I'm not an audiophile. Didn't realise this before...maybe it's because I was using the SONY MDR-EX55 - which I think doesn't sound good after using this EP630.

Now thinking of changing. Any idea how is the new EP830?
