Haven't been on here in years, but I'm looking for a decent pair of over-ear headphones with good, tight bass. I listen to more hip-hop and reggae than anything. I live in Hong Kong, so I can Taobao directly without an agent! Thanks in advance.

I use a 60 GB ZVM with a Qables LOD cable and a PA2V2/BSG cMoy. Sounds good to me. The Alessandro MS1s sound great with them. I tend to like the PA2V2 a little more than the cMoy.

You could always wait until someone else has a broken pair up for sale and then use the drivers from them.

You can get a LOD cable from Qables.com*»*WHAT'S NEW too. I use one with my ZVM, and then output to either a PA2V2 or a custom-built cMoy in a black tin with a smiling magic mushroom on it from biosciencegeek on eBay. Using the LOD really improves the SQ.

Yes to both. I use authentic EX-90s and I love them!

IMO open and portable don't go well together. If it's noisy around you, you won't be able to hear your music very well and if someone is speaking loudly, it could seriously hurt your ears. I think open headphones that still have some isolation are ideal. They give you a balance of the open...

Listening to my 412P now and man, are they ever bassy Perfect for hip-hop. They take a while to even out too. They sound a little harsh when you first get 'em.

I have a pair for sale. $120 shipped, brand new in packaging with warranty through the official dealer in Hong Kong. Paypal only, and only confirmed addresses.

Brita filtered water for me. We drink distilled here too, so it tends to be a mix of both. There's no feces in our water supply (AFAIK) lol.

Anyone know which chip is used in the USB DAC hotaudio has up for sale?

I use a ZVM with a Qables LOD. You can use WAV on the Creatives, but not OGG/FLAC/AAC.

IMO the recession began a few months ago. People are just scared to call it what it is. That being said, unemployment is still relatively low, so you should be able to find something to help you ride out the storm.

Wow, DT990s, MS2is and ER4Ps. You have good taste in phones. IMO you did the right thing.

I'd find the best price on Ebay and have the stuff you need shipped to HK. No import tax whatsoever.
