  1. Hi Guys, Long time never come, and yeah, again I'm here for a purpose! Uh huh, I know you want to beat me up. Anyway, just want to ask for opinions and suggestions for a good phone that come with good sound quality. I spotted Sony Ericsson W880i, personally havent have the chance to listen to it yet. I wonder any of you had give a try on this phone yet? Or you have a better choice for me? Currenly looking for a phone that come with good sound quality. Not getting gadget like iPod yet. Hehe..not so soon =) Still staying with the PCDP + X-Cans v1 + A500 that I've purchased last year
  2. I think standard 7-day exchange policy. You can check with Aron. I was told that if you encounter problem after the, let's say 7 days, you are welcome to bring it back to him and sort out your problems. However, whether you can still exchange or not really up to his shop's policy =) But I know Aron is quite friendly and approachable, that's why you can always see him so busy running around, assisting customers, or talking over the phone. Haha... Enjoy and I'm a satisfied customer for Stereo Electronics Thanks to Aron's superior customer service by him, as well as other assistants there. You won't regret your trip there. Just approach any of them to assist you in audition.
  3. Sorry for the OT, Meish, I think you are pampered la..haha...then maybe Beyer's velour pad suits you? BTW, I do not own any Grado cans...hmm..not Team Grado though..don't beat me up or kick me out OK? I never has a listen to those cans before except for a Grado SR60, but I don't like it, moreover, it's so uncomfortable for me
  4. The song is Love, Me by Collin Raye. Very touching indeed ... the lyrics can be found at http://www.cowboylyrics.com/lyrics/collin-...ve-me-5652.html Yeah, that's the song man! Oh man, nice, you have spelled out the name, thanks! Very touching song, and the music just well-blended with the lyrics...
  5. Actually I have listen to quite a number of tracks that would make my tears drop. Yesterday just listened to Beautiful Moments I, not the Beatiful Moments II that I have. Soul Touch - Far Away From Home This piece really make my tears drop. The colleagues sat next to me all said this song so sad like want to cry. Try it man! Other pieces that I can remember: You Needed Me He ain't heavy, he's my brother Vincent Ok just another one, coz there are really too much of it, but this one i can't really remember the title, but the lyrics is talking about a loving grandparents love story and how they've been through the hardship until the day they need to part with each other due to natural death. Really touching and make me cry, gosh...

  10. Stacey Kent Collection III Went down to look for more of her albums but unfortunately only manage to find this. Should try to look for them in Gramaphone or HMV next time. Quite enjoyable even though it's a collection from Stacey Kent's albums.

    I think best way is to limit the total time you spend on headphones daily. Daily listening session should not be more than 1 hour continuously. And try to listen at the normal listening volume level. Do not because of the feeling of feeling "shiok" with higher volume, then you always end up with listening at a volume which is higher or much higher than your normal or average listening volume level. I'm not so sure about the actual caused of Rameish's and Wil's ringing problems though. The rest, those who use speakers as well, don't think that by listening to speakers will save your ear. NO!!! They are the same, all because of the volume level ! So please, listen at a normal acceptable listening volume level, else you'll regret! Ok, enough of my two-cents worth reply
  15. Make This Moment - Inger Marie Gundersen [attachmentid=3495]
  16. I think if you want to listen to vocal and classical. I would definitely recommend my all time favourite Beyer Dynamic DT990. Definitely best for your vocal and classical albums =) Both the DT770 pro and ATH-A900 I have no experience with them, but I have A500. I supposed A900 is improved over A500. According to other head-fiers, A900 has wider soundstage and more detailed. They are good for classical too. For DT770 they have tight and fast and slamming bass, good for your pop =) Just MHO, please feel free to correct me if I made a mistake in aforementioned opinions.
  17. Sorry for the OT, N@Z, Mesh and Mackie. Yeah, you should start a new post on this. Ok now let's us
  18. I would suggest a DT880 if you don't mind the semi-open design, but it does meet your needs IMHO. A900 is not a bad choice too. Can consider it too, but DT880 might be beyond your budget. But for the build of cans wise, I would prefer DT880, better build and I can say it doesn't look like that fragile to me. Just my two cents worth, don't mind =)
  19. My dad contribute to my journey in this audio obsession. He owned a Japan-made hi-fi system which he is very proud of. That time it worth a few thousands dollars. That is 1970s. It's a Sansui Hi-Fi system. It has two front speakers, one Sansui AMP with Video Receiver, a big-cassete player (last time they used to have big cassete before the normal cassete we used last time ) and a LP player, cum equalizer. I think all Sansui. With another Japan-made headphone. It's not Sansui though. Forgotten what brand is that. He always play his LP and cassete in the room. We listen to his setup since young. Until now they are still working find for him! I can say it's a very old and durable setup with decent sounds though you cannot say it's a very good high-end setup. It's very enjoyable while I listen to his setup. Just for pure music listening. He started to buy in DVDP and not CDP, which I find it weird. When I was told that is to watch movies and music listening together. That was in 1990s. Well, fair enough. Then I start to notice some newspaper columns and magazine that introduce head-fi and hi-fi rigs. I start to find myself spending time in doing research on that. This is finally pay off when the first time I used my money to buy myself a HD202 during Poly studies. That time I was a happy ant with my music on with the pcdp from a friend. Quite a nice pcdp but I soon find that HD202 is not a good cans to own. Due to my heavy schedule and stepping into the working world. I started to lose in touch with head-fi or even hi-fi. But there was a time where I were fond of hi-fi but due to budget contraint and low earning power, I can't afford and my friend pass me a free PC speakers, JBL Platinum Pro if my memory serves my well enough. I'm not impressed the SQ of that pair of PC speakers much. Until I dump it aside and not playing any music for quite long and focus on my work and other hobbies. Until that time I went down to Adelphi I contacted SGH seniors again. And finally make my trip down to Stereo Electronics to try out those phones which are within my budget and finally get my ATH-A500. Which is a big improvement over that crappy HD202. Totally enjoy in it. Like it with X-cans but still need a CDP later to make it a better setup. Probably a pair of good IC too. Still enjoying with my warm and smooth sounding music now. Burn-in in process..slowly and steady as not much time to do that. Only when I'm free I will let it burn-in a few hours. The process is slow but so far so good. Improvements coming along the way. I dont agree with people who claims that amp is useless for A500. A500 with an amp is a different cans and burn-in definitely helps though fresh out the box it sounds quite nice on SE setup that time. I trust my ears more. Suggestions and opinions are welcome, but whether it is a nice cans or not, I need to justify it with my ears =) My dearest friend for music is my ears and heart. Of course DT990 is still my pursue in the long run, as usual
  20. Happy Belated Birthday to you, Yotiao =)
  21. wah man, if the Goldring dr150 is selling at $159 i chiong liao... but sadly, it's at $190. sian. yeah, sorry, after I posted it i just notice actually most of them are inaccurate..haha... yeah... DR150 is about $190. And yes, Aron can please list out the price here? Thanks.
  22. Ok, recently have spare the budget for this Audio-Technica ATH-A500, so would be running it in for sometime even though I heard it don't need amp to sound good or better. Well, no harm giving it a try. I've compared it with a lot of other cans at Stereo Electronics yesterday and the experience is quite good. The only thing is I'm left to try out the cans alone with my ears since I can't get much info on the cans from the staff there, and Aron is busy so no time to entertain me Maybe he is busy entertaining Chio BU
