You won't be able to fully enjoy an open-back like AD300 unless you're in a quiet room.

IEMs are good at shutting your ears from outside noise, but it's probably best to use a headphone instead of an IEM if you're just gonna be indoors.

Have you tried a closed-back headphone? Do you still encounter the same problem with one?

Actually i am curios that if you are looking for noise isolation, you should looking for those close headphone such as the a300 in stead of ad300.

Personally, PL-11 cause it's the only one I own and can vouch for. Try to stretch a bit for the PL-21s if you can. If not the 11s are fine.

Though, if the Hippo Booms sound like what they look like (rebranded Bijous), those aren't half bad too. But they're cheaper so I wonder if this is anywhere near true (plus if you need them in a hurry, both bro Wala and Yuheng is out in Australia, last I heard).

On the list, stay away from the EP-630, last I heard they were really boomy. Try the EP-830 instead, (again) if you can stretch a tad. Sounds a lot better (relatively) for an extra 20 bucks (then again, so does the PL-21s vs the PL-11s)

Myself waiting for bro Wala and Yuheng to get back, need new foam tips for my SP1 (my new favourite baby - bass is getting tighter by the day laugh.gif ), the medium olive clones are starting to hurt my ears... sweat.gif

If you're considering the NE-6, I'd say the MV SP-1 is fair game too. I haven't tried the NE-6/NE-7M, but from what I've heard, the NuForces have a slight edge in bass quantity while the SP-1 sounds like it wins on clarity (and bass quality). Nobody has both to compare though (and I don't think I'll get the NE-6 myself... I have sinking suspicion that they're gonna sound similar to the Quads - only with better bass).

The NE-6 is a proper canalphone that can be shoved up your ear for best isolation though - the SP-1's funky design will not allow for that. Keep that in mind if you're looking for good isolation.

hi, my pl30 just recently have an accident at the middle of a basketball game sad.gif so im looking for another one to replace now. mylar x3 was my 1st in-ear entry level iem but unfortunately i dont really like em not saying it sounds not that good but im more into warmer and dark sounding phones. after getting pl30 it sounds great too but still i feel similar with x3 with bright sounding. only now i realize ill have to get smtg that suit myself rather than following the flow sweat.gif

my requirements:
1) iem/headphones
2) more bass (as the sound play backed from ipods really lacking of bass, though im not a basshead)
3) sounds alike philips shp2700, senn hd555, senn hd650 (not meaning similar to their performance but like the dark and warm sounding of them rolleyes.gif )
4) avoiding bright sound like senn hd201, PL-30, mylar x3, bose in-ear(sorry im still not very sure how to describe yet)
5) would also like to maybe upgrade to another level? as i've been using entry level phones since 2006(4years), so a valuable upgrade would really be great too.
6) less than rm 300

currently considering pl21
but any other options? thanks alot

dint try yet~ doh.gif
i would use open air headphone outdoor~
it's danger when u crossing road or driving with IEMs~ u cant hear anything ><"
but indoor is safe to use IEM & my TV is always on 12hours a day~
i cant really enjoy music or movie cos the TV volume are quite loud~

Dark eh? In my limited experience I'd say you have these choices:

1) Crossroads Quattros - Dark and warm, though at the expense of being boomy and lacking in detail, at least below 50hours of burn in. But being the bass lover that you are, I don't think you'd mind. Try with the No.1 Port for the most bass - RM2xx (forgot how much exactly, get from Bro Wala ). Great Isolation if you jam them into your ears deep enough.

2) Music Valley SP1 - Bass heavy, but better balanced then the Quads. While it's my personal favourite (at least right now), it might be a tad too bright for your needs, works wonders with EQ tho. Worse isolation compared to the Quads due to it's strange design - RM180 from bro godluvsxs.

Also (these I do not have personally but I have heard good things about), you might consider:

1) NuForce NE-6 - The mic-less, cheaper version of the NE-7M, supposedly the best thing for bass under RM200 since sliced bread, at one time (RM180 - online from NuForce)

2) Storm Cyclone PR2 - comparable to the FX500, Monster Turbines and IE8 it seems in terms of bass (quality-wise though, dunno about the quantity). I'm actually interested in getting them for myself (RM260 or so from a forummer here).

And yeah, I have a thing for dynadriver IEMs, lol.
