Noise cancellation? Or do you mean noise isolation?

Noise cancellation is actually a term where the headphone is purposely built with a button, that activates a frequency to kill all ambient sound from the environment. That's active noise cancellation. Not recommended for portables especially walking in the street unless you tend to travel a lot in a plane or bus. Unfortunately you can't find any good headphone with active noise cancellation for under RM200. And most critical headphones do NOT use noise cancellation, it's more of a necessity rather than a feature. People buy it for listening to music in planes because they want to silent out the continuous drone of the plane engines and air conditioning.

Noise isolation is how well the headphone pads isolate your ears against the ambient sounds of the environment and how well it keeps the sound of your music in your ear. This is passive and depends how the headphone is design whether it's a closed or open back and if the ear pads are well made to cover your ears. It's actually very easy to do this and most manufacturers can totally close up your ears if they wanted to isolate you, but it will mean your ears will be very sweaty and hot. So most headphone makers have to find a balance between noise isolation and comfort.


I use the Superlux HD 681, it's under RM100 and it'll blow your mind for that price.

My mistake, should have been noise isolation.


Sounds good. I'll probably go take a look at Superlux.
Do you know where I could possibly test it? I'm from Sunway

Yo guise, is Plantronics headset any good?

Planning to get a new 1 since my cap ayam headset gone hay wired.

Been using those rm50 headset, wanna try something better now.

Budget : Rm200-rm250 (or rm300 max)

I've done some reading here so I know which brand is popular. Gonna go lowyat plaza soon to check those out.

A LOT of people recommended me Superlux 681. It's really good and budget. I'll highly order it this week unless something better pops up

This is without mic right? Hmm...will check this out

No mic for this model. Best is to get a standalone mic to do the job.

razer megalodon works good

razer megalodon works good ,it deliver quality

As compared to which headset/phone?

Test it with a deep bass music. got abit break sound?

HOPE HIM CAN COMPARE WITH RAZER KRAKEN PRO AND SUPERLUX

I WANNA KNOW THE RESULT.

any review on Triton AX 720 ?
My friend bought it over ebay us, wanted to sell me at price of rm200

Razer Kraken Pro
- Has a more pronounced bass, very heavy and thick
- Bass is uncontrolled
- Bass is rather muddy with no punch, bloated.
- Highs is almost non-existant, very recessed and blanketed
- Mids are fairly decent, surprisingly neutral
- Horrible harmonic distortion, forget listening to piano tracks
- Earpads are comfy... for the first 20 minutes, after that it gets too warm
- Decent mic

Superlux 668b (I assume you're talking about the 668b)
- Bass isn't as pronounced, but is significantly tighter
- Proper, controled punch on the low freq, not a bunch of "wuuuuub wuuub" mud crap like the Kraken Pro
- Mids are detailed with much better depth than the Kraken Pro
- There's a sense of crispness in the highs, but not very harsh that it'll pierce your ears
- Good harmonic distortion, at least listening to most piano or high trebled tracks won't result in white noise
- Stupid headband design, this is a personal complain.

Hope that gives you an idea of the both in comparison.


With everything included? If so, it isn't too bad. The decoder box alone is worth RM200.
Just don't expect the headset to excel at anything at all.

The AX 720 was very uncomfortable for me too, but that was when I hadn't broke the ear pads and headband in. Considering your friend's set is a used one, it should be better.

I migrated from damn-heavy Roccat Kave to simply V-Moda Crossfade LP2. Clearer sound with non-excessive bass compared to Kave.

yup full set, u mean the design is not comfort, mayb better ask him let me try out 1st, But how is the sound quality bro.

HOW YOUR SUGGESTION BETTER FOR MUSIC HEADSET?

CURRENTLY I USING XP500 TURTLE BEACH 7.1
GOOD FOR GAME , BUT FOR MUSIC WORST.(CRACK SOUND WHEN ABIT HIGH VOLUME FOR MUSIC. GAME PEFECTLY)

THAT WHY I SEARCHING A BEST HEADSET FOR MUSIC. MIND TO SUGGEST TO ME?
(HEAVY BASS AND TREBLE SOUND WITH OUT CRACK CRACK SOUND)

IF CAN FIND GOOD FOR GAME AND MUSIC MOST BEST??

Pioneer AND SONY HEADSET GOOD?

BUDGET RM200~RM500?

You guys prefer analog headset or USB headset?

Is there any difference in quality?

FOR ME ANALOG HEADSET..
