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

1) 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 - was the best thing for bass under RM200 since sliced bread, supposedly (RM180 - online from NuForce)

2) 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 myself (RM260 or so from a forummer here).

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

Try the SP1 too, very well balanced for the bass you get. I think you can audition the SP1 if you contact bro Godluvsxs. biggrin.gif

Alright guys, I'm in need of advice here.

The story goes like this, I got an iPhone 3g, being the dumbass I am, my stock apple earphones were in my pants when I threw them into the washing machine. It came out fine, but the right speaker is a little screwed.

I started looking for replacements. I have a pair of audio technica headphones but I can't use those when I'm out jogging or in the office, my boss would slap me senseless.

So today, I got a pair of sennheiser's mx60 at RM130. Effing rip off, because I was sorely disappointed at its quality. It sounds lots 'boomier' as promised on the back panel, but I'm not sure if it's the lack of treble or the clarity that's making it boomy.

To make matters worse, my colleague's sennheiser mx160, or was it mx260 was half the price of what I paid for, and the clarity of a budget headphone is there. The bass for those were fine as well.

I suppose I thought by paying a little bit more I'd get something nice.

I'm still pissed off, and I am pissed off enough to go get another pair so I can throw this mx60 somewhere and collect dust, or just re-sell it.

... but before I can go on my earphones-rep hunting spree, I think I might drop by and ask which ones are better since people at Machines wouldn't let me bring the earphones for a test drive.

MX60 is sorely out of the consideration. What're the other series that are worth looking at? I'm not fussy, I wouldn't want too much clarity at the expense of the lack of bass, or too much bass at the expense of clarity.

OMG even the busted stock apple earphones sound better than mx60. sad.gif

Lol... Try searching on the Yuin PK2/PK3 or Crossroads HR1/HR2 for good buds... These might be just up your alley, tho a tad expensive - though the prices here are great for the Yuins (like half of what's offered here): CLICK HERE!

Or the Xbrand 2 earbuds. They come from China though they said it sounds great for RM40. Get them here for cheap: CLICK HERE!

The AKG K99 (you mentioned earlier) is quite good for studio use. It shouldn't cost you more than RM300 i think.
