evil-zen 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 what do you mean by not suitable? As in sound or comfort? If it is uncomfortable, try using the foam pads. It helps in better coupling and feels softer to your ear. Sound improves too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kornilius 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 well if u do have the time, theres this other place @ shaw tower.. called "jade gift shop", recommended by quite a number of pple here.. the mentioned shops offer more or less the same thing considering ur budget contraint, so if ur really tight(on cash ) just decide on wadcha want and go to whereever is convenient for u if comfort is ur priority, i guess clip-ons are definitely out (IMHO) , and with ur budget i'd say ur choices are limited.. heres my 2 ¢ ATH FC7 Senn PX 100 Sony EX71 (In-earphones) Sharp MD33 (In-earphones) Koss Porta/Sporta Pro (unsure about pricing but should be just within ur budget) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slumber 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2004 considering comfort as a major factor, is koss KSC - 35 suitable for me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Absolute0 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2004 The Koss KSC-35 tend to be very uncomfortable to put on in the beginning (feels like someone pinching your years persistently) but it's better as you get used to it over time. Another caveat, it's worse for those wearing glasses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
