share ko lang..
was in the mall a couple of weeks ago itching to get myself an AKG K450. i couldnt find one. i tried all the stores in mega but none of them carried the AKG brand.
i went to astro plus in hopes of finding something that would fit my budget but will still give me that wow feeling.
heres what i found:
Audio Technica ATH SJ11
the price - Php1,999(nahiya pa, piso na lang 2k na e)
i have to say im not the headphone type of guy. as much as possible, i try to stay away from these types - i feel like im one of them j3j3k1dzzz whenever i try my friends' sennheisers and skullcandys. so whatever made me buy this is still beyond me.
so there i was standing in front of the AT section of astro plus wondering which color should i pick(comes in different colors. check their website). went for the pure black. after paying, i immediately asked the clerk to unbox it. i tried it on my ipod(stock eq, highest he-aacv2 encoding). what i heard was nothing but so-so sound that even my beat up pleomax can achieve. but then i figured i havent done a break-in yet so i put it back in the box and went straight home.
so fast forward - after almost 20 hours of break-in process(pink noise, random hiphop tunes, etc), i immediately hooked it up to my trusty ipod. and lo and behold, this sh1t delivers!
the vocals are clear. the highs and mids are crisp enough. and the bass is impressive.
for a guy who wants to isolate himself at times he likes to enjoy music, id say this one is a steal
nga pala, i found a store that sells those Kanen "woodies". Dai-Ichi store, 5th floor megamall. bought a pair of KM92 last sunday for my girlfriend.
again, i gave it the break-in. this officially beats A4techs in terms of vocal clarity and BOOM BOOM bass. im serious. if youre into rnb, hip hop and party beats then this for you. felt a little muddy on the mids but im sure you can live with it.
Php350 lang.
i was also informed by the manager that Kanen won the bid to manufacturer some Sennheiser earphones. sana lang di tumigil yung Kanen sa pag gawa ng sarili nilang brand o kaya wag din silang mag mahal.
