I live in India. Really confused between the Sony and JVCs and HM5s... Sent from my UMI X1 using Tapatalk 2

Quote: Even the JVC does not look like its easily available, at least online :( I'll check out landmark whenever possible. How about an amp paired with the HM5s? (Jaycar have clones for much less, right?)

Quote: Well I mentioned those because all of them are available domestically. I don't want to import cans too... given the high exchange rate and exorbitant high shipping prices to India, they really don't seem all that worthy to me. For eg, the CALs would set me back by close to $150USD...

Thank you once again. I'll go for the C3. It'll be a learning curve for me though... still getting to terms with technicalities of all this. Lastly, what would you suggest for use with the C3 among Sony MDR XD200, XD300, ZX700, XB300, XB500? I hope you don't mind my questions. Sent from...

Many thanks H2OFidelity. Well quite frankly I'm really not a full fledged audiophile like the people here, and I'll go with whatever you tell me. Cooler signature.. does it refer to emphasis on treble and high notes? And well I'm sure I won't be pairing the DAP with a high end pair of cans...

I don't think I'll be using EQ. And sure I can wait, actually I've put up my iPod for sale so before it gets a buyer I have to wait. And what entry level cans do you suggest for use with the C3? I usually listen to classic rock and a little bit of jazz. Thanks again! Sent from my UMI X1...

Thanks. Cowon iAudio 10

No one? Third post here, first topic. Expected better results. Sent from my UMI X1 using Tapatalk 2

As the title suggests. Have a limited budget, in the 200$ range. HiFiMan is not available here in India, I'll have to import it from China. As is the colorfly. I plan to use the player with a pair of SHN2500 IEMs from Philips till I save up enough for a pair of good cans. Looking at the Sony...

Things have changed, brother :D Sent from my M11C using Tapatalk 2

Great. Even I'm looking for a player, own an iPod Touch 2G like OP, and a few other Chinese players. I think I've matured a little in terms of listening and think I need a better sounding player. Audio is all I look for, and my budget is 200USD or 10000INR. Was looking at iAudio 10? I'm sure...

Looking for headphones for use with my iPod touch 2nd Gen. Been using Philips SHN 2500 IEMs for around a year, and I think I need something better now. I am in no sense an audiophile, and my budget is 2k INR or $50. I was looking at Sony MDR XD200/300 and MA300. It'll be great if someone here...
