ace, why dont A700 ?
btw, A700 in gaming is just great, closed back is detail enough.. hehe

Yo bro
Closed one is detail enough and i knwo that, but i heard a lot of sifu told me that Open one has greater soundstage and of course,not so hot
AD700 and A700 are exactly the same except the closed and open design right?

ATH-A700 closed
ATH-AD700 open

Open cans have a wider soundstage but some might find the bass a little bit lacking.

can i have some opinions on Klipsch Custom-1 VS Sound Magic PL-30 ?

Thanks.

haha...
soundstage vs extra bass, your call.

yeah true indeed,
and AD cans is using cotton pad right ?
A500-900, 950 TI , 900 LTD all using pleather, the PLEATHER is easily flanked if using a period of time.

hey hey count me in too!

how much is one though?

me too?

btw guys, just recieved my gf's bijou 3 yday, definitely sounds a lot better than my ep-630 but again, i cant really get used to da submerged feeling when wearing it..

will a sub rm300 headphone sound as good as a sub rm200 iem?

gotta forget bout my plan about getting a bijou for myself..

like da sound, but just cant get used to iem..

hello there guys. this is my 1st time posting in this section. any recommendations for an all-rounder headphone with a budget of rm1500? any inputs are greatly appreciated...

Do you already have a pair of amp? Headphones that price range are better off with a good pair of amplifier for its full potential.

owh really? then have to stretch my budget a bit. any recommendations? say rm2000 for both?

sorry complete noob here..

O.O


Rich! >_<


What type of songs you listen to? Haha. RM2k for headphone+amp.. I am aiming for that budget for my far in the future loudspeaking setup. :S

the audiophiles here would be able to recommend u some serious poisons if you can state ur preference of music genre, main usage etc.

Actually he can easily grab HD600 + Secret Amp combo, straight from Walabies/yuheng dy.
If he can topup to RM2.3k around there, HD650 not impossible.



Oh wait, forgot to ask. What soundcard/source are you (sieg_wahrheit) using at the moment there?

im using an esi maya 44. but currently im in japan and using a lappy. mebe i can get a good deal on headphones/amps here..

u talking bout sennheiser's hd650 rite?

Yup. Well, what songs do you listen to though? Hmmm.. Some seniors here may be able to give more appropriate suggestions based on your listening types.


Wa. In Japan ah? Studying? When coming back wor?
ESI Maya44 should serve well enough as a DAC I guess. Just hook on an amp. Hmmm..



ADD: OR, you could get a DAC/Amp combo for your laptop also. Quite a number of choices for you la. You could cut back on your headphone cost first, work on your source (DAC, Amp) then only work on your headphones. A good, solid, clean source ensures better listening pleasures. Haha.

owh sorry forgot about the songs. hurm, i actually listen to all types of songs. but let's make it rock/metal for simplicity's sake.

no la, im in japan for work. 3 months only..

Hmmm.. Rock and metal eh..
I have a suggestion. You could set back your budget to RM1k first. Tweak out your setup to have your preferred type of source with an Alessandro MS-1. The Secret Amp is really an amp you can hardly go wrong with (paired it up with MS-1, most of Philips' full sized can ranges, HD580 -> HD650, KSC75, some Mylar IEMs and some earbuds).


If you really want to spend big money on this, I would highly recommend you to go around, listen, audit then only think if your RM2000 is worth investing in whatever is mentioned. Heeey, enjoy life, right?





Hmmmmm.. Can I ask you to help me buy something from Japan? Pleaaasee? *makes cute looking pleading face* Ahahahahahaha.
