  1. i know it's sort of a step down from the SR60 i own

     

    but i needed a portable headphone, at a cheap price

     

    so i guess the lowest is the MX500

     

    first comments

     

    the cable is a bit too short, but i can live with that

     

    also, i didn't know they were equal length

     

    i.e. u don't wear one end behind ur neck

     

    soundwise its much better than the non-descript earbuds that came with my pcdp


  2. i like bikes too

     

    me like to learn how to ride too, too bad parents disallow

     

    i tend to prefer sportsbikes over the dirtbikes u posted

     

    rs125, rs250, 916, R1 and so on

     

    on 2nd look, the pics u posted seem to be dirtbikes with modified outlandish fenders, headlights

     

    almost like something from a power ranger show

     

     


  3. oops...

     

    i'm a fresh graduate, looking for my first job

     

    so no car yet

     

    don't think my first car would be an evo vii, probably more likely an old mx5 or mini

     

    btw, i think the rear of the new rsk looks like a toyota corolla

     

    and the front headlamps looks conceptually similar to the honda odyssey

     

    but overall, an improvement from the previous iteration


  4. hey fellow motorhead!

     

    i think u can see from my nick that my fav is a mit evo

     

    evo vii to be exact

     

    methinks the evo viii is ugly, plus not radical enough

     

    only diff is a 6th gear

     

    hey i've seen a rsk in the multi storey carpark next to my flat

     

    maybe i'll take a pic for u

     

    it's front grille has been changed, but i like the original look

     

    from the pic in ur link the new rsk is a real looker

     

    hope subaru has turned round the corner in design

     

     


  5. this is actually the main way i enjoy my SR60

     

    of course there are some stations with better reception [&more bearable aoustics]

     

    but sometimes they dont play the music i like

     

    now i listen a lot to stations that may not provide the sound quality but are good on the song quality [of course in my opinion only]

     

    92.8 for its dance mixes [i often record them to my pc [ok the sound ain't great but i get to enjoy them on my bus rides],

     

    99.5 for its great jazz [i'm still learning],

     

    91.3 for its imported dance programmes and mixes,

     

    89.7 for its sunday rock show on 2pm [even though its in malay, which i don't really understand],

     

    88.9 for the generally unbias news & john peel show

     

     


  6. saw a review in hifi choice or what hifi for the dt231

     

    quite good

     

    but v6/7506 sort of in another class

     

    dt231 around S$89 [if i didnt remember wrongly from hung bros]

     

    its more for portable use, closed but seal is not that tight [u can try them on at hung, but at the tryout station, only can hear some classical music, also dont know what kind of source]

     

    default velvet pads feel nice though

     

    self adjusting headband is nice too, compared to my sr60

     

    v6/7506 is more a dj/monitoring phones, used in lots of studios

     

    more ex, S$200 plus the last time i saw the 7506 at sony sls [but that's overpriced]

     

    they're bigger than the dt231, i think can fold

     

    overall, i think v6/7506 more suitable for mixing

     

    but u should try to listen to both b4 deciding

     

    some web research via google would be good too, something i do whenever i want to buy/desire something

     

     


  7. looking for headphones for my CR-LD70 receiver

     

    it'll be used for my PCDP too, but headphones for consideration need to take the low power o/p of the receiver into account

     

    was wondering what i should consider besides the senn MX500 [around $30]

     

    saw these labtec curve-465 clip-ons [$21]

     

    koss ksc-50/55 [more ex at around $50]

     

    isolation would be a good feature as i'm using them while i'm travelling in buses

     

    any others?

     

    thanks for any recommendations

     

    p.s. just realised i'm being quite unrealistic, want cheap want good

     

    hehe....

     


  8. can consider dt 231 [$89] too, or MX500 [$33]

     

    need it to be foldable, quite few choices lah...

     

    PX200 is the only one out of the 3 you mentioned that is closed, but i think its quite ex

     

    me also own a SR60, looking for portable phones too

     

    SR60 cannot make it outdoors

     

    actually equivalent closed headphones in the same class of SR60 is the MDR-V6 aka MDR-7506

     

    but using these on a tiny iRiver receiver....plus its coiled cord...

     

    btw, how's the sound of the iRiver IFP 140TC?

     

    if i'm not mistaken, this version is 64MB rite?

     

    can the radio recording be uploaded back to the PC?

     

    and in what format?

     

    sorry for asking so many questions
