razer 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2005 Btw, to the OP, have you sort of narrowed down your choices and decided on a few cans that you might consider? I mean, other than the A900, are there any other cans you would consider as well? I think that the HD595/HD555 is a pretty good choice too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

razer 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2005 Oh...I see. What's your budget? I think besides the A900, there's the DT770. I've not tried it personally so I can't comment on how it sounds. So like what others said, your could give the DT770 a try at Anything Audio down at Parklane mall. If you want portability as well as being closed + good looks + you're a bass head, I recommend Audio Techinca 2005's newest portable can, the ES7. There's two colours to choose from, black and white. The price is gonna be around 220 to 230 when it gets to our shore. I could give u an audition of this can if you want to. Just PM me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lekguan 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2005 I could give u an audition of this can if you want to. Just PM me... Its pretty detailed from what I remember when I tried at razer's house. Pretty nice sound, the typical closed headphones sound. Something like the PX200 but more refined. If my memory serves me correctly regarding the PX200 sound.

razer 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2005 Ok, back to the A900s, I'am pretty surprised that they sold out that fast/were in such a great demand thus running out of stock...I accompanied a friend down to Hung Brothers for a pair of A900 and I see that they had at least 2 or 3 in stock. Judging by the minusicle(did i spell that right?) market headphones get in Singapore, its a surprise they got all sold out within a period of less than 4 months. Also, have you guys heard of the cresyn earbuds and the pretty girl at sim lim square? Anyone knows whats that about? I'am more interested in the latter.

razer 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2005 the cable of the A900 are freaking long for portable use.. anything can be done to it? Cut it. Like I've said, you could always give the ES7 a try. They don't isolate as well but definitly not as hot/heavy/long cabled as the A900... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
