Hi guys, not sure if any here can help. But any idea where I can get a replacement cable for M50x that comes with mic? Intend to use it for PC gaming. Thanks!

May i know where can i demo or purchase the Future Sonics G10 locally?

Hey, you can buy the G10 from lendmeurears. They also have a physical store at Adelphi just opposite of Funan IT Mall. Not sure if they have demo for the G10 there though.

hi all, here are what i'm looking for

- Your rig: macbook pro
- What type of usage: Home
- File format used in your source: mp3, usually from internet radio
- Genre of music you listen to: post rock, pop, indie (enjoy occasional bassy tunes)
- Headphone / earphone type: headphones (closed/isolation)
- Other requirements (if any): detachable cable would be good, comfortable for hours of usage
- Budget (in figures): $100-150 (of course i would be happier if i can spend less)

i wouldn't consider myself an audiophile, im just looking for a pair of headphones that is comfortable, something which can last me for a reasonable period of time before wear & tear kicks in (flaking of leather etc.)

looking at the audio technica m40x... any other models to recommend similar to that?

would appreciate if you all can intro some shops to demo the headphones too thank you :)

You may wanna consider m50 or used m50x.

I think its better to get m50 since its more popular and demanding.

Need some recommendations here.

Need to replace a ATH CKM50 as the cable connection has broken, no sound on one side of the buds.

Budget <100 (hopefully) and for someone with small ears. ATH CKM50 (with Sony ear tips) fits snugly.

If you wanna stick with audio tech, the CKB50 not bad leh for less than $50 bucks. Of cos can still check others like soundmagic, fischer audio and jvc.

Hey guys!
I need some recommendations.

Your rig: Samsung Galaxy S1, Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Laptop
- What type of usage: Music, Movies, concert videos
- File format used in your source: MP3, mp4, m4a... kind of all sort of different ones...
- Genre of music you listen to: pop, alternative rock, j-rock, country, instrumental
- Headphone / earphone type: IEM
- Other requirements (if any): comfort. No heavy bass, clarity (if possible, but I'll take balance sound with mid-range focus anytime)
- Budget (in figures): < $100 - $120

I used to own an a-jays two and like the sound, recently been recommeded the Fischer Tandem, it is pretty nice too. Still I kind of wanting to look around for more options, hopefully able to find one that fit my hearing and comfort needs, I do tends to listen to music for hours on when I'm writing. It would be a plus too if there's a pair of earphone out there that would make me swoon over a guitar solo and/ or a good vocal.

Thanks in advance.
