    SE535 vs SM3

    I happened to of own both the SE530 to the SM3 so I'll try to give as best a comparison as I can. I reckon the SE535 shouldn't be too far off the sound of the SE530 so here goes in comparison of the two and I'll put down the key differences between the two and the parts that I like from each...

    K702's and an Amp

    I guess I can chime in my 2 cents worth here. The AKG K701/702 from my experience of having them can be a tad bit hard to drive due to it's low sensitivity and low impedance. Technically speaking, it's the low sensitivity that is the killer since the amp would need to give out more current...

    What Are Some of Your Favorite Sad Songs

    Here is something off my head: 1. Tears In Heaven - Eric Clapton Written for his son who died tragically. Trying to picture that as a backdrop to this song and Clapton making his plea is well...sad. 2. Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad - Def Leppard Remembered listening to this in a...

    Looking for "must have" classic rock albums

    Looks like Ozzy should also deserve a mention here. The album I reckon that should be there would be 'Tribute'. Randy Rhoads live is simply jaw-dropping. On top of nearly every song from the first two Ozzy albums with Rhoads on Tribute rendered live plus some very very good Sabbath takes...

    The Best audiophile tracks to test equipment

    Shure SE530? are they any good?

    I own a pair that was upgraded from an SE210. My brief take on it is: 1. Instrument separation and detail wise, the SE210 and SE530 come in pretty similar with the SE530 yielding just a tad bit more detail. 2. The SE530 also presents a larger soundstage. You could really pick out some of...

    What headphone to buy in Malaysia/Singapore?

    In my opinion, finding deals on audio equipment here in Singapore is REALLY tough. Prices are exorbitant compared to reference prices I find on the Internet. Nonetheless, I do agree that there is lots of eye-candy at the Adelphi and Jaben is one of the best places to go to. Though the prices...
