  1. $50 well i think top up more get a grado 60 better
  2. why dont u go down to their showroom at ps or marina to give it a try? personally i feel it is reasonably priced and sound decent for a 2.0
  3. of cos sia allow earphones and mp3 devices for tat matter, any other airlines too u just have to off it when taking off and landing. i use iem w airline adaptor for the inflight entertainment system can block out aircraft noise
  4. i notice a lot of ppl recommending studio monitor types of bookshelves like alesis or even esi, such types may not be appealing to most ppl. actually it really boils down to the media u using and the purpose of usage. most ppl dont find it enjoyable to listen to studio monitors, they find it too clinical almost harsh, showing so much detail - exposing weaknesses in their compressed music (mp3) incidentally most ppl find such speakers lacking in bass. this is evident in some boards where new esi owners expressed slight disapptments at bass and want to add a esi sw8000 subwoofer. i guess most of us grow up spoilt by sony type of low end consumer speakers which altered our perception of music - particularly their boomy bass which mislead our sense that its really deep bass which is bloaty and muddy i suggest go audition yrself personally to see which speaker really appeal u and esp to yr wife. incidentally if really going for esi, why not consider m-audio, most of its lines are virtually esi clone :X
  5. i do not think pc hardware prices are lower in us...esp hdds. chk the series and model too. us models are seldom as update as sg. price wise- mostly also lower, evident from the hordes of angmohs shopping in simlim. eg... just sometime ago i got a fren studying in us wanted to replace hdd from his ext usb case, he looked thru all the radioshack type of shops at the mean time i was hunting a new hdd in sg, we all looking at seagate 300gb hdds, in the end i settled for a seagate barracuda 7200.10 but he only manage to get a 7200.8 and at least S$50 more than me note - mostly not everything cheaper in sg though how i wish i can get earphones in sg at us prices
  6. not forgetting Parisienne Walkways i'm a gary moore fan too he can make u weep with his guitar wails
  7. perhaps u like to get a pair of customized plugs to get a better fit?
  8. between ms1 and k81, there is no comparison but then i'm biased. best pair of cans below $180: ms1, grado 80.
  9. Song from secret garden - Secret Garden Still got the blues - Gary Moore Across the universe - Terry Oldfield Goodbye - Air Supply
  10. i'm also looking for a budget integrated amp got offer pm me my budget $100-300 esp looking for NADs. must be in working condition of cos
  11. i think the price will be above 100 since its really in very good condition. but no i dont have a reserve price i'm open for trade too for similar range earphone in good condition. pls dont offer a ep630 or a ex71
  12. onboard sound chips are really not that great my mobo comes w it and i alternated it with sb audigy card it really sound significantly diff
  13. GOOD GOD! Noooooooooooooooooooooo
  14. who the hell would intentionally want to post a porn pic as a avatar to get banned in the first place? the avatar i posted was leeched from a site and apparently someone changed the pic at the source but maintain the same file name which was somehow redirected to this board. it was v short time span, lasted for less than 2 hrs, it was changed at 11pm, i got to know it by 1am and changed it immediately. note to noisy ppl here if this is a problem report to the mods and get me ban then. and note to everyone here - have i say and behave in anyway unacceptable here ever?
  15. i'm having headache listening to my ms-1 comes w box, in perfect aesthetic and work condition but of cos no more warranty liao. Interested to sell, any offers pls pm me. also interested to trade for any good earphones pls pm me w model, condition and age. ^^/

    AL IM716!

    i'm really v interested in im716 seem to be a budget yet midrange fones my only 2 concerns are impedance will it drain my ipod battery faster given its so hard to drive and the discomforting earbuds i want something comfy like ep630 dont even feel it at all sigh...seems like i have to look else where now

    AL IM716!

    anyone here have a set of iM716 already? maybe do a little review on it on how it compare to other budget iems...e2c, um1..etc
  18. so for under S$200 iems the one with best bass is superfi.3?
  19. aego m is great but it lacks a front headfone jack v troublesome if u want to switch to headfone
  20. eh sad to say the pic not mine i'm not as well endowed...hahhahahah incidentally here got ladies???? come to think of it i never met any gals into headphones ever! ok back to my ms-1 actually its giving so much headache.... i limit my use of it at 30mins i think maybe its brightness but then its what that gives it the omph! bass wise i'm quite satisfied w it, definitely a gd pair of rock cans. maybe i should change to the senh pads...maybe tat will help
  21. relac relac someone punked my avatar
  22. no space for another 2 speakers...i dont want to trip over cables and kill myself at night
  23. i dont think its external ear discomfort due to pads rather its internal in my ear... though i am using the stock one which is not exactly comfortable, its acceptable to me. i listen mainly to rock music with it i find it... overly bright and harsh at time...scould be that giving me fatigue? incidentally i prefer my hd25 over ms1, its a pair of curiously interesting cans... its natural to me yet with a somewhat exciting bass component to it, at best i can describe is that its not neutral, not gd as reference but its definitely a fun pair of cans now if only ms1 is as comfortable i think it can give the pricy hd25 a gd run for its money
  24. not interested in anything above 2.1 not intending to use it to watch dvd or play game so dont see pt of surround just using it mainly for music atp 3.....i afraid its going to be boomy again
  25. no leh...discomfort not from the band.... its somewhat inside my ear hard to explain just a tired feeling from inside and its not like i'm blasting huge volume
