Singapura 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 You're just too late, I sold mine yesterday . If you want to buy you can go to Jaben (4th floor Adelphi) or Stereo. The price is SGD 175,00. I didn't have an adapter with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssheavy 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 alamak... sounds good but does it come with the adapter? Its included according to alessandro website. I need it as I'm using a PA2V2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmmtn4aj 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 Its 151 shipped from http://www.alessandro-products.com/headphones.html However to get warranty you're going to have to send it back, instead of being able to service it here. So it's cheaper but more troublesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warsurferX 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) Hi ssheavy I got mine from Hung Bros for S$169. it includes the adapter but i thought the PAv2 uses the 1/8"? (the headphones jack for my MS-1's the 1/8. So I have no use of the 1/8" to 1/4") From Alessandro's site...NOTE: Models listed "w/ mini-plug" come with a small 1/8" plug plus the adaptor to convert to full size 1/4" Edited March 13, 2007 by warsurferX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ken.ishiwata 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Hi All, I'm intending to get a SR80 or MS1 for casual listening in the night. Would this be more worthwhile getting compared to the SR80? Please advise. Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers! U'll need to do a side by side comparison to answer your own qns. I own the MS-1, what I can say are these cans are very good for general purpose listening and more tuned towards rock. SR80 on other hand, from what I read is that its rather more aggresive and in your face. Pple peg MS-1 as a more neutral sounding can vis-a-vis a SR125... If you do get the MS-1s....go for the flat pads or mod your own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MARCPKH 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 I do agree that the SR80 may sound more aggressive with the shrill highs but it does rip out details well so it is good for instrumental, new age & vocal. However the low slam is not strong so for new orchestrals & slow rock, it may lack excitements. Guess MS-1 may be the way to go... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ken.ishiwata 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 Thanks for the input guys! Really appreciate your comments! I will be changing the pads and adding the Beyer headband too as I did find Grados rather uncomfortable last time. I will audition these 2 soon. Cheers!

wes88 0 Report post Posted April 5, 2007 (edited) Guys sorry for cutting into this thread but i jus want to ask whether the MS1 needs an amp to work on my handphone MP3? Edited April 5, 2007 by wes88 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radioactive28 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 It works well off my MP3 player, so the handphone should drive it okay. I hope you're not meaning to use it while travelling though. It totally does not block out any sound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
