    Just wondering if any tsikoteers here are also into headphones and earphones. I used to be one, then got over it as its an expensive hobby. Because it's an endless upgrade (upgradititis). I have got out of it. Now the poison is trying to bite me again.

    What's your current setup? At home? At office? Portable setup?

    I make do with cheap earbuds and headphones because I tend to break or lose them with alarming regularity.

    For the gym, I use a cheap Philips SHQ 3200. For most other uses, I stick with a cheap Sony MDRZX110AP.

    Both are generally less than $15 each.

    been using BOSE products for more than a decade.

    at home: on- ear headphones, para sound tripping at chatting.

    at office: in- ear headphones, para lang sa chatting kaya di rin madalas gamitin... i have a music monitor kasi,
    para lang may konting sounds sa opisina. :thumbup:

    I have a modded Sennheiser HD518 and Audiotechnica M50. I use FiiO E10 DAC. My monitor setup is mainly for home recording on my Behringer MIC200 + C-4.

    I'm satisfied and have no plans on upgrading. My current money holes are my two bikes.
    Damn, son! Where'd you find this?

    In ear monitor I used to have was Ultimate Ears TF10, nawala ng anak ko nung pinahiram ko. Dahil more on bass head ako I also have Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5 Extended Base. I still have this, ganda ng bass. Sa bahay I use yung Marshall Over the Ear monitor, ok rin sounds niya.

    Wanted to try Audio Technica ATH-M50X and ATH-M40X, kaya lang wala pa akong napuntahan store na may available unit for audition.

    My ex is into headphones. I don't understand why he needs to have so many. He said it depends on his use and what he is listening to daw. I got him a Grado as a gift, during that time the Grado SR80i was P7995 at this shop in Powerplant near the cinema. But I heard it's cheaper now. I only use JVC gumy earphones that doesn't even cost P1k.

    Then he wanted more earphones

    MEElectronics Sport M6
    Mpow® Bluetooth 4.0 Stereo Foldable Headphones Headset
    Koss KSC75
    Philips SHL5605BK CitiScape Downtown Headphones

    Those are just the ones I know of because I bought it for him recently. He still has other earphones

    By the way, one of the most recommended cans is Audio Technica ATH-M50, latest model have an X suffix. The ATH-M50X has a replaceable cable while the older model doesn't. This model is value for money. Sound, they say, is close to neutral with a tinge of warmth.

    The ATH-M40X, on most review, is really neutral. A good choice if you want pure monitor. It's also cheaper than the ATH-M50X.

    You think its good for symphonic metal? I currently have Grado Sr80i for home, it's a bit mid forward so it's great for guitar riffs and vocals like bossa. And soundmagic e10s iem for office use.

    Im looking to either buy audio technica im70 for iem or audio technica m50x headphone.

    Basically there's an all-rounder headphones out there, it's mostly flat on all frequency. But there are also some headphones that's great for one genre but awful on some. That's why some people have many headphones, it depends on what genre they are listening to currently on what headphone he will use.

    Headphones/earphones? Sony. Don't buy beats, mga chipipay na parts lang yan na nilagyan ng tatak ni Dre para magmahal. Maraming mas mura na mas maganda pa sa beats.

    Agree. Aside from Sony, maganda din ang Sennheiser.

    I somewhat prefer open back for the soundstage but I mostly use the good ole M50 for mixing and cleaning recordings. There are just some sounds I miss when I'm using open back.
