how much is this A900 and where can i get it?
*
roughly RM700 to get it to ur doorstep inclusive delivery and taxes etc.

only places that i know of would be bluetin.com (based in singapore) and audiocubes.com (based in japan).

EDIT: u can also get from forumer walabies. but dunno his price though.

i think should be beyer dynamic..wait for Madman bro to advice u in tis,he also like rock/metal/heavy music
*
beyerdynamic is waaaaaaaayyy more than RM200 man.

ive listened and liked the Philips SHP2700 for metal. cheap...but good enough. and comfortable for long listening hours. below 200 for headphones kinda tough. the philips would most likely be ur best bet. i suggest going for the Grado SR60 for an additional RM60 from some shop in ampang...(forgot where..mebbe centre point).

if IEM then mylarone XB biggrin.gif.

hi, newbie at audiophiles section.. hehe..

wanna ask,
how to determine the strengthness of the bass of the earphone? (err.. it is correct? hehe..)
what is impendance, and response (in kHz ...) ?
*
strength of bass defers from one person to the next...so its something u have to hear for urself...

but in terms of specs, i usually look at the frequency response and see how low it can go.

QUOTE(veryniub @ Oct 20 2007, 11:17 PM)
need sum recommendation on earphones for ipod..
budget below 100 if possible..
need sum price = quality earphones since i feel the earphone that comes wit ipod in the box is not so good..
*
creative EP630 - RM59
razer pro tones m100 - RM99
jvc marshmallows (on sale in the garage sales section) - RM45

but i would highly recommend the crossroads mylar series from yuheng @ RM175 if u can spare the extra cash.

well,grado is a good start for your budget.SR80 or the cheaper SR60 are both good but they are really painful to your ears so considering you will be wearing them for hours,its either you get immuned to the pain or gave up totally tongue.gif .no idea about the rest,only know that Sony and Creative can be forgotten straight away.maybe you can have a look at Philips' 8900 at less than RM200.
*
dont simply recommend grados without finding out peoples music preference first man... grados will sound like crap on some music genre. and sound best on rock.

also comfort issue is another thing u need to find out. some people prefer to stay away from supra aural cans like grados.

Hi, can anybody recommend me a headphone around rm300?

~ use it only for music playback, not interest in movie or other
~ use it only for indoor, not going to bring it out
~ not interested in noise cancelling or any fancy extra function, i just want it produce sound as given by input
~ not particularly focus on bass of treble, balance and clearity are more important to me
~ comfortable more important than look

thanks in advance ya smile.gif

wat type of music u listen to?

id recommend the Grado SR60 if u listen to rock.

haha..i got a green DT990

i want an upgrade to either the K701 or the HD650

laugh.gif...forgot ur the one with the Limited Edition Green Beyers... laugh.gif

if thats the case, you should get something with a totally opposite sound signature... HD650 (i cant believe i just recommended a Senn).

the K701 is more like something in between those 2 imho. tongue.gif

HP2500 can get anywhere actually... even shops like HSL etc etc should have them...

as for hiss... cant remember...havent used them in over a year

but i guess its cheap enough to not burn a hole in ur wallet just to give it a try

@TJK911

i say the Phillips SHP 2700 would be sufficient...theyre open headphones though so no isolation. and they leak alot of sound.

good for ur usage i must say...

circumaurals ARE generally better.... but each has its own pros and cons of course.. depends on what u want...and ur ursage as well i guess.

and yeah..the Mylars are excellent. i have the X3 (not X3i) and i think its awesome.
