No need to be confused, save more money and you can get the K-271MKll used for around $100.

How about one among these-:

PX100 II
KSC75
PortaPro
iGrado
HD201


Best vocals ?
TIA

Hi Tao~. Vocals? For a cheap headphone? I suggest you stretch your budget just a little bit. Please get Grado SR60. You will love this for vocals as I do. It has a forward sound that vocals seems to be the power of the headphone.

TY for the reply.
But SR60i is $80 and my budget expires at $50 ?
I think I have little choice and need to decide between iGrado, PX100 II,KSC75
Are the others worth the extra dough over KSC75 ?
Thanks

KSC75 if you really just want vocal sparkle.

lol at head-fi. If it's known for anything, its known for not paying any attention to what people say they want.

True, but most askers are often known for the fact that they ask for something not possible for the set price...

eh, that's more because head-fiers take "good vocal detail" to mean K701 like vocal detail.

The KSC75 really does one thing super well, and that is vocal detail. Kinda funny that he immediately had 3 other people recommend he spend over twice his budget without even commenting on anything within his budget.

Childs play compared to some vintage DT48 & older STAX for detail & vocals But for 50.00 you would have to look very hard..
