I'm looking for a closed headphone(covers whole hear), x really like open air or in ear headphone, x so comfortable wearing them.

I'm going to study in university soon and have to live in hostel, can't bring my altec lansing along, so I have to buy a headphone for movie and songs.

I'm listening to music most probably using my laptop, psp or my handphone.

My budget is around rm100, as a student, of course, cheaper is better. I'm not a really serious audiophiles, any cheap headphone but comes with good quality is welcomed (afraid being stolen if it's too expensive).

I'm currently looking at those easy-reachable headphone like sony, creative, altec lansing, philip..

can anyone give a brief description to the headphone brands i mentioned above? other brand is welcomed as well.

i don't need long distance wire. If the headphone comes with volume controller is most welcomed (not compulsory).

Please give me some descriptions and recommendations. Thanks !! ^^
Please include brand name, model and price in your recommendation.

I don't bring this headphone outside, huge, inconvenient. I'll only use it at home/indoor.

i'm looking at a headphone which is treble and bass balanced. i hav a cheap philip before, cost me bout rm60. it's treble is over bass.. u hardly hear bass from it. it sucks especially come to movie where bass play important role. if there's any headphone can produce nice clarity of treble and bass, i x mind raise my budget, but not too much.

yup, totally agree. I tried before altec lansing headphone, sucks. but i like their speakers. i personally own 3 altec lansing before. u mentioned sennheiser, how if compare to philip 890/2700 series? How bout AKG n audio technica?

i x wan bass over treble.. treble clarity is important to potrrait a singer's vocal.. bass help enchanching the background music.. it's the best if i can keep both.
i x like the high treble headphone which produce a lot of 'schu' tss' 'shing' sound a lot n end up hear nothing bout bass.. i x wan those headphone whch is like altec lansing's, bass overcome treble..
ah.. it's hard to explain.. mayb i'm being too cerewet..

How bout AKG n audio technica?
how much is hp890 anyway?

Yup.. I'm looking for a well balanced headphone. So does tat mean besides ksc 75, i couldn't find any other well balanced headphone?? how much better if it is a circumaural headphone..
i tried my fren's altec lansing and sony clip on headphone before, it's not so comfortable and has 'sound leakage' somemore.. bass is losing. Is this Ksc75 comfortable for wearing long time?

ah.. raised my budget to rm200, any well balanced circumaural headphone?
hp890? koss? AKG? audio technica? sennheiser?
i wanna keep my budget as low as possible..
it's better if it's in rm70-rm150 range.. max rm200..

wat do u mean by portable?

Added on June 6, 2007, 1:49 ami was misunderstood last time tat closed headphone must b a circum headphone.. after did much research on net, i finally noe wat mean 'closed/opened' means.

i'm looking for a circum headphone, those biggest size headphone which covers the whole ear headphone. wan it coz it's super comfortable compare to other type headphone. x mind it's open or close, as long as ihe sound is well balanced, treble and bass.

grado sr60 better than shp8900? where can i audition headphones? normally they come in seal package, shops r unlikely to let us test it or have a demo unit.. where got a lot lot of different headphone to try on?

i tried hd201, i actually think shp2500/2700 is better ler.. mayb it's affect by the surrounding, i cant tell much if i x test in silence place. but my impression is philip beter than seinheiser. but looking at philip's design, they're so fragile..
