N@Z 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2003 Can you provide us with more details of how foldable it is? There are different designs, not to mention sizes & price range you are looking for. It would help narrow our recommendations. Helpful also is if you can show us what the Wecan looks like, a link perhaps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

timo 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 wat's the diff btw PXC 250 and PX200? and how much huh? thanks all who reply .. been helpful and patient.. =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lekguan 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 PX200 is closed, sound isolation isn't that good though, have some but less. PXC250 is active noise cancelling, meaning there is a mic somewhere near the cups, which picks up ambient noise and sends a similar but inverse signal to the cans, causing the ambient noise to cancel out with the singnal sent by the mic. Battery is required to run active noise cancelling. how much I'm not so sure. Somewhere around 100SGD.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lekguan 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 (edited) hmm some reviewers say V6 is not 7506... http://multimedian.com/pcm/reviews/7506.html BTW, what is your use for those cans? Why do you prefer closed backs and what is your budget? Edited September 10, 2003 by lekguan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Absolute0 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 In that same review, a link to head-fi was given, with some evidence that the V6's and 7506's are in fact the same. Anyway many have come to accept that they are indeed almost identical as well. http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/showthread....p?threadid=1453 The PX200's are getting lotsa attention on head-fi suddenly, so maybe they are a great pair of foldable closed cans to try?

N@Z 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2003 In the absence of any further details I second the Senn PX100(open)/200(closed) recommendation. Both are foldable & sounds good for sub SG$100. If you don't mind clip ons, Koss KSC-50/55 or 35 (if you can find anyone selling) sounds better & cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
