  1. Hi Guys,

     

    I am using the AKG501(sounds great!!) now and wants something more portable. Here are my requirements:

     

    1. Easy to keep/carry

    2. Open style. Needs to hear my kids/wifey when they call out to me at home at my work room.....

    2. Very comfortable to wear. (The AKG is fantastic here.)

    3. Similar sound quality to AKG, meaning transparent, open soundstage. No overpowering bass. Cannot stand bass that is out of proportion with the music.

    4. Budget --- quite liberal at the moment. Probably below $500, but will consider above this if it is really good.

     

    thanks!!


  2. Hi guys,

     

    Recently just jumped onto headphones band wagon. Got myself a corda 2move (need the crossfeed to get the sound I need) and using it with a AKG501.

     

    Question:

     

    I am wondering, are there any portable sources (phones, MP3s etc) that I can connect to my corda 2move with the USB cable to transmit and receive digitally the audio, instead of the analog output of the source to my corda? This requires the source to be a USB host.

     

    Thanks for any input!!

     

    Cheers.

  4. Hi All.

     

    I have shifted house and have no place for my hifi, with my kid coming out also....hence am looking for a suitable headphone setup to continue my audio enjoyments....

     

    I am looking for headphone recommendations....no budget at the moment but S$500 is comfortable for me and above it is fine if they are justified.

     

    What I can looking for is comfort level the most and the ability to player classical and general music well.

     

    Please help me with your suggestions and location to buy smile.gif

     

    Have a happy chinese new year!!
