For USD$40, the UHP 336 sure seem a bang for buck. lol

USD 40 is not very cheap ady, almost RM140++ if including those postage and handling fees... The SF3 is said to be bass shy, out of 10 reviews I read, it's like 7-8 of them are negative one tongue.gif

1) IEM
4) Set up... well I'm using it with a creative mp3 player.
5) Open to any decent brand.
6) Don't understand this portion
*
Creative EP630, 830 or JBL Reference 220 are the best I think at that price range. May be razer morray as well xD

Some also said that pl-30 is not the most comfortable...  tongue.gif

Probably because of the design of the ear tips. You want it to be more comfortable, go get urself a custom ear tips xD

It's also very hard to get a good seal with PL30. That's probably the reason it's not that comfortable. It's interrelated these things. lol

Bad seal=bad design of ear tips...

DOn't forget JBL haha. Superb nice IEM at that price, to me at least, it sounds like a Rm200++ IEM. Way better than the EP630 for sure, 830 not sure coz nvr try it xD

JBL reference 220?
When I first time listen, I was shock.. Why an IEM got wow effect sweat.gif  sweat.gif
vocal laid back, cant listen clearly..
After burn in abt 80 hours, that wow effect not so heavy.. vocal come front abit but still lose to EP 630
however, if compare wif detail and bass, EP 630 lose alot to JBL
N one more point, JBL is open type IEM so when i use on LRT, i still can hear some noise..  smile.gif  smile.gif
*
Haha, to me the EP630 is no where near the JBL xD You need to change the ear tips given to get better seal, I'm using IE8 ear tips on it, it improves the seal a lot tongue.gif Also IF you like the JBL SQ, you'll definitely like Sennheiser IE8 smile.gif

IE8 is not under this “budget” topic, right? If one can stretch the budget, should consider SP1 instead.
Btw, are you letting go your extra 220s?
Does the 830 and PL-30 have the same SQ to be compared?
If one likes phone that emphasis on vocal and bass, can consider PL-11 which has no comfort issue, from some review, it is better than 630 in a way. Might refer to http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1111995&hl=
*
Nono, I'm just saying that those ppl who finds the JBL SQ suits them will definitely like the IE8 as well. Nay, I only hv one JBL left with me, I'm keeping it wub.gif I saw one seller selling new one at RM50 only at garage sale.

Oh, forgot to reply your PM pulak. >_<
Got it for a couple of weeks already actually, but quite unhappy with the battery life, hopefully mine is just a lemon unit though.
I've tried driving the HD650 with the Clip+, yes, you can crank the volume up enough, however it doesn't sounds good la. laugh.gif
