Thanks for all the help folks. Has anyone shipped the Koss KSC75 through VPostUSA? How much is the shipping (for 1 set)?

You an try Challenger Funan. If i'm not wrong, Koss's lifetime warranty is only for US/Canada and Mexico. So it doesn't really matter where you buy it. Wow, you guys are fast. So I take that there is no official importer/dealer of Koss products in Singapore? So any warranty stuff must ship back to US one way or another?

I see, was at Hung Bros today, didn't see it (I think). Maybe I'll check back some time later. Btw, if we order through Amazon we won't be able to get the lifetime warranty that Koss products are famous for right? I meant realistically speaking, we would have to ship the damaged set back, then... (you know very troublesome and expensive).

Haha thanks. Was about to add that to my post. Do you know where in Singapore I can buy this?

Hi all, For starters I'm not an audiophile. Also, my pocket is not very deep, only $50 to spend at max. Was thinking of buying a set of headphones to replace my old earphones. I got fed up with my old earphones (Sony) as the sound distortion was really horrible. I guess I'm not very fussy about quality, I don't need "uber" sound quality, just decent sound (can distinguish the instruments playing music, and not just one "slur" of sound) and most importantly no sound distortions. Preferably the "clip-on" types or "small cans" (not looking for earbuds or IEM types). Most importantly need to be portable (i.e. got container to store), as I will be using it on my laptop in school. Was shopping at SLS today and found a few headphones priced at $20-$30+ from brands like Sony, Philips & Panasonic. Are these headphones sufficient in terms of quality, or should I go for higher stuff like Senheisser, AKG, Koss, etc. (which do seem a bit off budget)? Also, there are some specifications that headphones use that I don't understand, for e.g. 1) Impedence - Ranges from 16 ohms to 64 ohms. Is it the higher the impedence the better (since the uber $100+ seem to have 64 ohms). What is the minimum impedence I need for decent sound quality (for the record my previous sony earbuds were 16 ohms). 2) Frequency Range - Ranges from a few Hz to 20,000+ Hz. What kind of range should I get? 3) Sensitivity - Rated in db. Once again, what is sensitity, and what are the minimum values I should aim for? EDIT: I did find one product suitable for my needs though - Koss KSC75 Portable Stereophone Headphones. Can anyone tell me where to buy it in Singapore? SLS doesn't seem to sell Koss products. Thanks in advance to all you headphones guru out there!
