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.

hp 805 and shp 2700, how much do they cost?

do u mean sony MDR-XD200?
http://www.sony.com.my/sonystyle/product/p...ubcategoryid=84

it enables movie/music switch. rm98, looks good, but dunno how it sounds..

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?

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..

can i have a headset wif mic...

but bro..u have to tell us...
whether u need an IEM(which is high isolation and portable)
or u need an headphones(which is unportable)

wat do u mean by portable?

Portable means you can easily bring it anywhere ler

i 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.

whats an IEM?

Err...hello....I'm sorry if this is not the place to ask this since i'm new but since this place is about headphones...............you see, i'm using an altec lansing studio headphone and is ripping my all my music with the maximum setting(highest quality).............everything sounds fine but when i play this song.....Evanescence-Bring Me to Life, the guitar seems like too distorted (in malay it is known as bunyi pecah) the same same goes with the background singers' voice..............this song is the only one with such problem so far my other music sounds nice even the low bitrate ones ..................any one have any idea whats happening or any suggestion? already tried using other formats such as AAC MPC ETC. but still problem persist. also tried ripping the music at lower bitrates....this solves the problem to a degree-the distortion becomes a little subtle-do not solve the problem.......tried also softening the volume.....none works......IS THIS WHAT WE GET WHEN A HEADPHONE HAVE A WIDE FREQUENCY RESPONSE? already tried disabling all plugins and equalizers dun work................I'm using foobar2000 and winamp btw...thank you

can anyone help me choose between Grado SR-60 and Alessandro MS-1? does i need amp for it?

i would love to get SR-80 but i don't think i can afford that, if there any headphone that better than what i mention pls post bout it. cheers

thx for fast reply ...:sweat:currently at NZ right now and someone offer MS-1 for NZD190 (around RM500) and when compared price with SR-80, SR-80 cost me NZD250 (around RM660) while SR-60 is about NZD170 (around RM448)

if seriously SR-80 > MS-1 > SR-60... i will go get MS-1 instead. SR-80 bloody xpensive and if MS-1 better than SR-60, i will go 4 MS-1.

anyone can help me decide again? thx 

mostly portable(PSP, zune, ipod), sometimes on pc.

Lol I dun have since HP805 is my very first headphone that lead me to this section

Anyway since I already brought sumthing in Lowyat this morning(LCD monitor) maybe I should buy an amp instead.Any recommandations?

What is the best in ear headphones available right now in the market? Shure, Sony or Seinheisser CX300?

I usually listen to music whatever i use my headphone(prefer using speaker for gaming and watching movie).I frequently listen to j-pop and some rock songs and yeah,the source will be my PC.

Anyway my friend recommand me to buy Grado SR60 and he can get me one of those soon.Can this headphone can satisfy me to the limit where I willing to spend Rm600 for another headphone next time?

PM Leviathan, he plans to sell his SR80 around that price. New one is close to RM400.

SR60 and SR80; the 80 has stronger bass. SR80 comes with bowl pads whereas the 60 comes with flats.

An in ear headphone that has everything, great highs, sweet mids and tight, strong bass?

anybody care to relook at my last request for rcmendtion? ive changed my budget to 100 [but might have a sec thought of 150]

hmm... quite true there, but since my earphones actually lasted me more than a few years di, I wouldn't be sure about good resonable pricings.

Maybe I'll give around RM100. More than RM200 is probably overkill?
Music preferences is jpop. I like bass a lot too.
Source is my pc (X-Fi not even a month old and my earphone cannot tahan the quality di ).
