HD201? Owned one before. Payo lang, if you're going to use it for your portable device mas maganda kung ia-amplify mo sya. Medyo mahina talaga overall sound or yung volume nya. Pero kung pangbahay lang naman eh swak na rin.
+1 sobrang under powered lalo na pag iPod gamit mo

kahit DIY cmoy amp lang ok na :-D

May Store ba dito na nag Ca-carry ng Etymotic IEMS?

I'm getting one of these later, i know how it sounds, ayoko muna makipag-sapalaran sa mga after market, then siguro pag tagal na at sawa na ko, papalitan ko na rin naman. Yung ganito ko kasi dati, nawala agad, 3 weeks palang, wala na sya sakin, kaya di ko sya napagsawaan. Gandang ganda ako, di ko naman kasi habol yung bass, basta hindi lang masakit sa tenga yung highs, lalo kapag nilakasan (may mga ganitong headset talaga, mostly cheap ones)

question mga boss:

planning to buy a headphone (mejo layo muna ako sa in-ears). how are these senn headphones?

http://www.google.com.ph/imgres?q=sennheiser+headphones+entry+level&um=1&hl=tl&client=firefox-a&sa=N&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1280&bih=661&tbm=isch&tbnid=6NC-hreIbpaOSM:&imgrefurl=http://dicksmith.com.au/product/C9921/sennheiser-entry-level-headphone&docid=jkYalil1OrqGHM&imgurl=http://dicksmith.com.au/media/DSAU/Product/300x300/C9921_0_med_v1_m56577569835004005.JPG&w=300&h=300&ei=kDRpT5_rFeehiAe_-pilCg&zoom=1

feeling ko sya ung pinaka affordable balak ko kumuha sa listening room mega. ok ba sya or sa price range nya may iba pa recommendation? TIA

sa pagkakatanda ko, Bianxraquel had that..so Bianx, ano masasabi mo

ay wag mo na bilhin yan. mura nga pero not worth it. hindi hd201 yung akin dati marzi, hd205. malayo tunog ng 201 sa 205. although hindi kagandahan sa tunog pareho.

natesting ko na yang 201 kapag namamasyal ako sa mall. having tried a lot of portable headphones i suggest mag ipon ka pa ng 1K on top of the 1.2k you're planning to spend on that and buy a superlux HD661 instead. 2.3k sa gogadgets. pwede mo pa test.



personal na opinyon ko lang naman maganda yung superlux hindi lang sa tunog. ilang beses na ko nauumpog tuwing sumasakay ng bus o jeep, it serves as protection too. lol. plus the fact that it fits your head like a glove. hindi siya lumuluwang, sakto sa tenga. i use it in the office everyday for more than 8 hours dahil yun nga naman trabaho ko , makinig ng calls ng ahente. i'll leave the 'sound review' to the experts at hindi naman kasi ako audiophile o ma-techie when it comes to that.

but yeah, i strongly suggest against the senn hd201. kung bibili ka na din lang ng portable headphones ng sennheiser, dun ka na sa px100. tulad ng sabi nila, manipis kable niyan at hindi tatagal.  :-D

and yeah it's going to help if you buy a headphone amplifier should you plan to buy something else. i use a fiio e6 for my superlux. pag nag testing ka sa go gadgets nakakabit na mga pang test nilang stuff sa amp, kaya dun lilitaw yung tunog. pero pag sinalpak mo sa, say, your ipod, mahina talaga. kaya laging suggestion pag may headphones kang malalaki, to buy an amp as well. pinakamurang amp yung kay marzi na de baterya, 500 yata yun. yung mga de-usb charging, 1.2 up. :D

^Mam Bianx yan yung maraming colors diba? :-D

last Christmas may nag regalo sakin ng Superlux HD571 Around 700 lang ata to

Kabaliktaran sya nung HD201  :lol:

thick at lush yung bass pero hindi lalamangan yung mids at highs, mas malaki ang soundstage
at super durable nung cable at portable sya

kaya nag pa-plano ako bumi ng HD6XX para sa home use lang :-D

got some new cans hehe  :-D

Pioneer HDJ-2000: balanced yung sound nya...not too deep yung bass, not too sharp yung high's...very, very clear ang sound and hindi kumakalat yung tunog...the mono/stereo switch is a great function, lalo na for single-ear monitoring...the only downside(in my opinion) is the cable, yes the three pin jack is great pero yung straight to coiled nung cable is "masagwa" (once again in my opinion)  :cry:

Superlux HD660: once again not too boomy and not too sharp, balanced ang tunog...comfortable sa tenga and lightweight...the coiled cable sucks tough  :oops:...great pair of monitor headphones  ^-^

Jut got my sennheiser hd448! Any idea how to burn-in? I mainly listen to hiphop rnb, acoustic, alternative, and house. Can i leave it overnight playing on my ipod? will the genre I leave it with affect the sound quality? I mean if I leave it overnight playing my house music, will it adapt to the genre and not sound good with other genres anymore? I saw a post over the internet about a few days ago about that.

what i usually do is shuffle all the tracks tapos iwan na..the volume has to be set to at least 75%to 80%..sobrang harsh kung ilagagay mo sa 90-100%..nabasag yung tunog sa kanen iems ko noon..

meron din ako nito kaso no effect kung sa iems/buds mo lang gagamitin..kung naka cans ka yan pedeng pede lalo na yung frequency sweeps nya..
