Found! fxc51 at sim lim. Apparantly they have been selling it since last year and left only small batch, black all sold out, only left red. bought mine over the weekend. wonder who are the guys who bought.... anyways, enjoying it and comes with extra filters and 3 size tips. IMO the bass vent seems not only to tighten the sound but to make it more laid back as well. Just my less than 1 cents....

Good idea! ...i ran down after work to the place u mentioned and the branch at funan after seeing your msg ....Nope they do not have , i did pass near funan while on errands yesterday so tried my luck. i see u have the fxc70 in your sig ,....i got my 50s at the clarke quay place u mentioned and heard the 51s and the 71s are upgrades of the 50s and 70s.

Yep. its JVC. i dun see it at either of the branches....

Anyone knows where to get either 1 of these 2 phones? ...i passed by shop during work and rushing and just glanced at price tags, now i cannot remember where as i was rushing around few places. i have the prev model fxc50 which has good low profile and read the improvements on these series. Easy for me when i am on the run for errands and such. I think i saw retailing at 70+ and 90+ , i do hope its as good as what i have heard.

Oh wow! Nice shot of my purple one. Must have taken it before i collect. Mind if i grab the pic? What color is the one above the red ones? They look yummy same color as coca cola. Hope to see more colors available before i make the next one.

Purple is nice, i just got mine with purple faceplates. Hmmm....green will be nice. the pair of customs on their website seems to be Green and Orange. Perhaps they do have green color already?

Dun forget the UEs.

goody! I hope i get mine soon as i sent in early this year.

woodies!

thanks for the info. Hopefully mines on Tuesday. Chk my previous PM. any prizes for predicting "something" during the CNY? Just kidding, some of my ex colleagues went into logistics always happen. I'll pray hard for everyone who is waiting for theirs as well.

i hope yours and mine arrive soon. Went to ask last week while i was there. Anxious man.

oh. cos u din mention it, tot u were listening it straight out from ipod.

Get an Amp!

Went to plaza branch for 1st time as i was in area to finish up some stuff. Usually i will go woodlands branch as nearer to home. I find that today is good time to audition the headphones. what luck! they had some karaoke competition in the podium. If i cannot hear the music or noise, thts the one i will pick. Tried HD228 - sounds good, but dun like the isolation PX200-II- better isolation but dun like the sound HD201 - good isolation but tinny bass mx 60vc?( i think thats the model name) - could not find it to fit even though they say its twist to fit thingy then i op to try these cos they definitely isolate better though they may not have the big sound of headphones. denon-c351 - good bass, dun like the high denon-c452 - tighter bass, slighter better highs ckm50 - overall nice sound, highs not for me ckm55 - wowee!...finally ( and i just read on head-fi, that there was a comment that ckm5x has smoother highs than ck7? ) Kudos to the chinese guy, i think his name is chen zhan...if i remember correctly, who is so friendly as well as the other stuff. Not familiar with PS store as i usually go woodlands. Now make me and thinkin to try ckm70 and ckm90...

The rx700 and a500 is not IEMs, but headphones. i agree with epicality that the A series from ATH is great sound. rx700 is really bang for buck if you dun mind the size and carry it on the go....but like i said...i was irritated by the noise of commuting so just whack something on before out of the house and back.... Have not tried the HD-25, so i cannot comment

I used to have the ES7 and now ESw9. IMO, the earsuits tend to get hot and sweaty for me when i am out. I used to listen to music on the go as i spend quite some time commuting( 1+ hour to town for work and 1+ hour back home to b-batok). They are good to have definately, but usually after about 30min or 45min it starts to get hot as they sit on the ears. .so now its either used in office or at home in an air-con environment but not for on the go. Its comfy after either you get use to the clamping force or it stretches, but its still hot. I have d1001k which is very comfortable and does not get hot as fast (unless i have them on for very long). Unfortunately they dun sound like closed cans...(which i thought at 1st pointed to the sound sig!...Yipee...open can sound + good isolation of closed cans)...which after awhile realising it means that-literally and got irritating cos of the commuting noise ...so another can for home listening. So now..i have no phones on the go and going 1/2 nuts waiting for my reshelling to come back(ya, cant stand the noise,...i prefer beautiful noise->music than ambient noise). Might go to check out hd201(supra) or hd228 for a cheap solution on the go at the moment at stereos. If you find those sitting on the ears uncomfortable then u can try hd201. Hope it helps. P.S. I have tried the RX700 and a500 on the go and they do a good job of isloation though not as good as IEMs, but not as portable.... ...thats how nuts i can be...lol.

oops din know the difference, as the songs you mentioned and this singer, i usually ask for ayaka and comes in japanese wordings for both the normal and the 3 inch singles. Thanks for telling me the difference.

Not sure Hirahara, but when i borrowed the single off my friend, i remember it says "Jupitar" and a japanese words below. Ask my friend and he says her name is Ayaka. Is that same singer? Some of the rest like those you mentioned...only some..have the name ayaka on the single, this one i remember because do not have the ayaka english name on the cd cover.

Try "Jupiter". Then you can also hear how she powerfully " breathe" the song. But you might not be able to easily get it as its her 1st single.

I think so 2, its rewarding. But ppl around me are complaining about me being a lil bi-polarish from the wait.... Guess i cant wait to recover my sanity as well.

Hope they dun test till forget to do my reshelling. Pray Hard that my days without listening to music is over soon.
