jealousy never dies 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2003 After getting varied responses from the "Koss or Sony" thread, I have decided to come up with this poll to help me make my final decision. Any response would be greatly appreciated! As I said in the "Koss or Sony" thread: My budget is SGD$100. I usually listen to pop, like R&B, hip-hop, jazz, some (in fact very little currently) rock and metal stuff. I would be using the phones with my portable mp3-player as well as my cd-player at home. Design/style (ear/head or around the neck,etc.) is not so much of a concern as long as the phones sounds great and is comfortable. My criteria (1:most important, 6:relatively least important, but still important): 1. Sound quality (esp. bass and clarity) 2. Price 3. Comfort 4. Portablility 5. Design 6. Warranty Please comment on the reason for your choice, such as by giving accounts of your experience with the phones. Any other recommendations would be great too. Thanks in advance!

jealousy never dies 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2003 Hope to see more votes! Please dun null vote lah, I will just use it as a reference, so I dun mind being misleaded a little. Ermmm...I believe my budget should stay at $100, max $120, so no Senn HD-600 for me (unless someone wanna sponsor me ). I think Grado-SR60 would be nice, but it is abit on the exp. side and not quite portable. Any comments? As for the meet, I dun think I would be able to attend, coz veri bz lately, and also for the rest of the year presumably. And I dun wanna meddle with those high-end phones lest my hands get itchy and thn burn a hole in my pocket . I guess a sub-$100 phone will do just fine. Cast your votes!

N@Z 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2003 Urfortunately I cannot vote as I only have heard the MX400, although similar to the MX500, I can't fully recommend it as I prefer others not listed in your poll list. Plus also my experience with cheaper cans are only the KOSS KSC-35 (which is not readily available, theoretically similar to the KSC-55 & PortaPros but since I never tried I can't say for sure) & Grado SR80 (which is out of the price range).
