Hi guys, i have about RM500 budget.

Should i get Astro A40 or Audio Technica ATH-M50 or V Moda Crossfade LP

OR

should i just stick to the good ol' Steelseries siberias?

Anyone got any opinion? smile.gif

edit 1: My music preference is Muse, Linkin Park and ACDC.

games i play are FPS and Fifa 14.

Thank you! smile.gif

Hey, just a question.

The A50 is so expensive, why did you buy Astro product when you can spend the money can get audiophile headphones like Audio Technica, Beyerdynamic or even Sennheiser?

Just curious hmm.gif

Any of you tried the steelseries elite?

Is it a joke or worth the RM700+ price tag?

Holy crap! 700 bucks for a steelseries?  rclxub.gif

Can't wait for Head-fi to get a crack at it. Maybe steelseries has something on their hands that they think can command such monies.

yeah, RM700+ for their BEST headset! laugh.gif

I'm looking for a headphone too, but definitely not the Steelseries Elite.

Looking at V-Moda Crossfade LP and Audio Technica ATH M50 biggrin.gif

but still haven't decided yet

They don't call themselves gaming headphones, but a lot of people actually use them for gaming.

Just curious bro. Happy you got what you want! smile.gif

imo the ath-a700 closed headphone beats the m50. i wanted to buy the m50 once but after testing it, was not impressed by it. i already own the a700 n it sounds more full. however the m50 LE (limited 50th anniversary) is impressive n better than the normal one.

dunno bout the vmoda crossfade but the is a version 2 for that.

How much did you buy your ATH-a700 closed headphones?

and

Where did you test them out? I'm looking for a retail shop in PJ/KL area that has vmoda or audio technica headphones for us to test.

Yeah normally higher than online retailers. But the good thing is U get to test it with diff amps and see how the sound with different types of song.

Also the items you bought can b tested first so peace of mind is there.

In SG items are priced higher than online as well but it is a norm there if you need their warranty service. And it is always nice to test a few headphones of the same price range to see how all of them compared.

i also wanna test, but it's impossible for me to travel all the way to Penang from KL just to test a few headphones.

sigh. KL also no where to test. cry.gif
