Q00

Great work yotiao. Now I can surf even quicker on SGH using my fone with the lo-fi version.

 

No issues with browsing speed & 'look' on my side. It was a bit of a surprise to see the change today but looks fairly intuitive enough.

 

I prefer the blue colour scheme too.

ah.. i was wondering where the quick reply box went. im such a klutz to have missed that...

Great job yotiao!

But i wish i was richer, cause i didn't have the courage to test the UM2 today, haha!

if you just bought your UM1's... dont!

be happy with your UM1's for at least a few months...

I saw another interesting headphone amp called the juliette if i recall correctly at jaben also by firestone audio. Unfortunately i did not get to audition them so i cannot comment on the sound. Build quality looks quite solid to me.

hje70 sounds like fun... might give it a shot one of these days... big bass and yet tight... how much are these goin for on the streets?

i used the 3250, and god i think it sucks. i sold it to my friend and bought a shuffle instead. i feel so much better now. i've paired the shuffle with the um1s and woooo! its great! what ever you do, don't listen to the um2s right after u heard the um1. haha you WILL regret.

too late for that..

difference was quite huge... almost like um2 = stereo and um1 = mono... not to mention the price difference is huge too...

If you are buying for the sake of buying then yes. imho, they both present sound differently so i do not think its a proper comparison. Each phones may be suited towards different types of music.

i made the mistake of listening to the um2's before listening to the um1's... i thought that the um1's were not available for listening but they were.. in another corner i didnt see... the difference was astounding and i felt like i was listening in mono when i switched back to the um1's. quite worth the extra money to get the um2's but i will reserve my final judgement till i listen to the e5

er6i is a neutral pair of cans with a pretty flat eq. only thing is that the bass doesnt extend well into the lower bass like the rest but is nicely controlled and punchy.

ok.. i won the sx10 also...

im sure u can recognize me from the pics in the other thread naz

im on starhub and have no problem.. singnet probably has not updated the dns servers to redirect to sgheadphones.net yet.

Thanks Wilson and Yotiao! Fantastic job on holding this event. Im sure gfmoses will post his pics up soon once he gets back home. Glad to make more friends and meet new faces.

You should enrol yourself in the frontallabs music academy or the redbull music academy. They specialise in dj courses. Both on the mixing and turntablism side of things.

Bigger soundstage than hd650? wow..

These look a whole lot more comfortable than the regular pads though...

i own a shuffle.. kinda hard to beat it for sound quality among the rest of the mp3 players.. even the nomad jukebox 3.. but to be fair, both players which i mentioned have their strengths and the njb3 has a line out while the shuffle has the best headphone out so far.

hmmm.. now that u mention it.. i think what i meant is that the er6 lacks lower bass extension. bass is there, but then again, im comparing it to my dt-150 which extends very low.

Firstly, welcome to the forum!

Forrealistic production of sound is quite subjective i reckon, especially if there are many factors like your bitrate for your mp3, but if you dont want any 'enhancements' you will probably be looking for a neutral pair of headphones/iem. Off the top of my head, search the forums for:

DT-150's - neutral but just slightly more bassy but not in a bad way, i own a pair of these.

ety's er-6 - i think its neutral and clinical(very detailed) but u might find the bass slighty lacking but this is from memory only.

For amp's do a search here and try lookin for the master amp.. its quite cheap (around 200) and neutral as well.

Enjoy your stay mate.

has there been any real hands on reviews so far?

id recommend the aego m or the gmx..

bass wise.. the gmx 2.1

Apple is suing back Creative for 4 patent infringements now...

dat sounds like quite a reasonable price... how much are the tickets..

that waterfall shot is a gem...

Always learning something new everyday... esp from the more 'senior' members

afbug, i reckon if you introduce yourself as a member of this forum, you could get a favourable response

Never say "its hard to imagine it could get any better"... Something else will always come along

i wonder if its absolute0?

AKG K1000 seems to fit your requirements

Happy Birthday!!!
