Head/earphones Recommendations Thread

[obichacha]

Wow!! Thank you so much for the prompt reply pal! May I also ask how does the RHA T20 stand against these you've recommended?

T20i tried before but not exactly I want the sound, from the mids and treble not great enought
Should try with RHA 750ma

RHA T20i some comparison here

Pardon me for asking 2 more question.

What the RHA T20 failed at for you?

Which one of them (RHA/FLC/DUNU) has a more balanced sound? Like sharp treble but tight bass at the same time?

For me RHA T20 unbalance sound to me, something missing out like sweet mids & treble for femile vocals.
No matter dynamic driver how well they do still can't beats with balanced amertures drivers for fine and separate detailed with smooth mids with nice trebles.
T20 good like never happen for fatigue sounds, so can worried for sharp treble as well.

Get hybrid IEM should never disappointed you.
Dunu, Flc8s both are hybrid

Hi,
Looking for new IEM (budget around $50?)

What i need is the design that similar to my previous IEM (Music Valley SP1 & Audio-Technica ATH-CKM500i )

Best if come with mic & volume control

Been using this 2 for years and the reason i want something similar to this is because this kind of design fit nicely to my ear.

thought?

I do recommend Meeaudio Pinnacle P1, have personally auditioned it at Stereo. http://www.meeaudio.com/pinnacle

Value for money, wide soundstage, clear highs and surprisingly good sub-bass rumble. Go give it a spin if you like more V-Shape sound + bass response of a dynamic driver.

I recently bought Marshall Major II Bluetooth headphone and am quite satisfied with it.... using it with my iPAD for movies, Lenovo PHAB+ for phonecalls and radio, Aftershock lappie for gaming and Samsung Note2.

I think you can try at IMM Challenger
