In-ear monitors (IEM) or canalphones. Wiki or Google for further information.

Calm down there dude. No need to get upset. lol

I'm not sure about K77 but in general AKG cans have great SQ with amazing bass compared to the Sennheisers which have less bass and generally sound thinner.

And with a budget of RM300, you can also get Audio Technica cans. ATH-AD300 or ATH-M30. Both have good overall sound.

There is always the ATH-AD300 if you prefer an open back. But i find that full-size cans are the most comfortable type of headphones around for long hours usage, be it close- or open-back.

It has been known that the M30 is an easy to drive cans and almost any kind of portable player can do the job with ease. No amp is necessary. So a laptop shouldn't have any problem driving this baby.

You can go thru the previous posts above. There's already a lot recommendations/suggestions that you can read thru regarding <RM300 budget headphones for audio, gaming, movies and so forth.

If you can squeeze RM20 more, get yourself an ATH-M30 from Akabane@DrJackel for RM220.

It's the best headphone there is for that price range.

If you still prefer the warm sound your late EX71 makes, you should go for Bijou which provides pretty much the same sound signature (warm) but with a whole lot better clarity and detail.

I suggest Bijou 3. You could go for 2 if you're a total basshead. 1 being the most bassy of them all and 4 has the least bass in the Bijou series.

Where/How did you get it?

Is that where lgs got his?

@maninkl & @lgs, Thank you for the info.

Believe me. i am seriously considering picking this one up. =D

Oh please do. =) And with a little bit of your personal review i hope.

Post it in the SoundMAGIC thread if you will.

Dunno much about HD218 but it's a portable i believe? If you prefer a portable, you could check out Audio Technica ATH-SJ3 or ATH-FC700 for your budget.



erm with your budget there's plenty i guess. i'm surprised no one else here made any suggestions. lol

i could recommend you a few CrossRoads iems, but the microphonics is quite bad if you wanna use it for gym, jogging, or any other activities that involves a lot of movement.

if you're willing to redirect your question to bro walabies, he probably can give a better suggestion. his bulk thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=586559

Never tried any of those, so can't help you there mate. lol

You could google around for reviews for those iems if you're wondering how the sound quality would be like.

What about ATH-M30? The price is a bit step up from T22 but it's the best priced monitoring headphones around.

The T22 should have a pretty decent bass and good music/vocal separation. probably not as good as other higher end models but good enough for its price.

one for your pc and the other one for your portable player. lol

Shure SCL2 or Shure SE115 fits your budget but the bass is not something to die for.

Not that many people are willing to spend a fortune on equipment alone just for the sake of higher music quality.

Having a decent gear that can be easily obtained is already enough for most people to enjoy their music.

lol that's probably true. I am exposed to poisons almost every single day but i still have the strength to resist. For now. lol

ATH-AD300 or ATH-M30 is the best you can get with your budget. Best balanced overall sounding headphones with good price/performance ratio.

Lurk around to find more reviews.

well if you already fixed your budget and have your sights on the Plantronics. i say go for it.
