  I don't know if this feedback helps, but I chose the DX90 over the X5ii because i thought the X5ii sounded rather bland and lacking "spirit" and "punch".

  mga experts, nababakbak na leatherette earpads and headband ng jbl noise cancelling headphone ko sa sobrang tagal nakastock. nakahanap na ako ng pamalit na earpads pero malamang hindi pwedeng palitan yung headband. anong solution ginagawa nyo para hindi mapunta sa buhok/ulo nyo yung nababakbak na leatherette ng headband? iniisip kong balutan na lang pero hindi ko pa alam ipambabalot ko e. salamat po sa makakatulong. :)

  Try mo magpagawa ng ginantsilyong headband cover. Dati meron nagbebenta nyan sa H33P eh.

  As far as I remember, warm sya. Hindi sya flat. Or flat pero leaning to the warm side.

  thanks for the feedback sir jai.

• rodelm172 on 30 Aug 17 @ 05:05 AM #

  Feedback please on this product: Awei A885BL Waterproof Wireless Sports Headphone
  
  Am looking for an affordable bluetooth headset with the following features:
  - good battery life
  - good noise isolation / cancellation
  - decent sound quality
  - durable
  
  If there's a better option out there that's within the same price point as the Awei (Php1K-ish), please feel free to share.
  
  Thanks!
  
  EDIT:
  
  I think I found a good alternative -- SoundPEATS QY7, which is in the same price range of the Awei. Lots of good reviews as well. Will get these next week and post my own review. Cheers!

  Mga boss ano pong mas ok: Comply foam tips or Spinfit tips?

• jaibautista on 31 Aug 17 @ 03:38 PM #

  ^Depende sir sa needs niyo. Usually, pag nag-foam tips kayo and foam-like din yung inner tube magiging medyo bright yung tunog since yung bass eh maaabsorb nung foam (similar to velour yung effect). Ang maganda naman with foam is mas comfortable siya.
  
  For silicone-based tips naman (e.g., spinfit), mas okay yung bato ng lahat ng frequencies (pero ang mapapansin mo is yung bass and mids since hindi absorbent yung soundtube). Only problem is comfort; magpapawis yung tenga mo over time kaya need to remove the IEMs every now and then to wipe off the sweat.

• BlackSG5 on 31 Aug 17 @ 05:29 PM #

  @Jai - Experience ko sa Comply tips is it kills the highs. I tried yung Comply tips na kasama sa IM70 before (I know you had one before) and I hated it. It killed the highs and pronounced the bass. I would recommend Sony hybrid tips for fit and comfort. I also tried the JVC Spiral Dots on my E40, but not my preference. So it's just laying here doing nothing...

• soulfly07 on 31 Aug 17 @ 06:48 PM #

  mga sir may improvement ba kung mag usb dac ako na fiio k1 coming from asus xonar dgx

• localfly on 02 Sep 17 @ 08:45 PM #

  mga sir pa recommend po ng wired earphones 2k budget (max 4k budget), yung same or better SQ than soundmagic e10 (excluded from the list).
  
  any feedback about shure se215? may nakita ako sa IFS selling for 2k+.
  
  thanks in advance.

• majingotan on 02 Sep 17 @ 08:58 PM #

  ^ Dati ko nang ginagamit iyan. Ang pangit lang sa SE215 ay sensitive siya sa mga noisy headphone output dahil sa low impedance rating niya (16 ohms).
  
  Also, kailangan mo ng magandang amp para magkalaman at definition ang bass niya.
  
  Try mo yung Ocharaku Co-gonduri

• localfly on 03 Sep 17 @ 05:51 AM #

  @majingotan
  
  thanks for the feedback about SE215. question lang about dun. malaki ba epekto ng sensitivity nun sa SQ?
  
  Also, you mean co-donguri. san ko po sya pwedeng ma-audition?
  
  and what do you think about fiio ex1? available ba ito locally?
  
  thanks.

• majingotan on 03 Sep 17 @ 09:56 AM #

  
  thanks for the feedback about SE215. question lang about dun. malaki ba epekto ng sensitivity nun sa SQ?

  
  
  Yung concern ko lang ay yung lahat ng mga low level noise kapag walang pineplay ay rinig mo. Na-try ko na siya sa iPhone at Chord Mojo pero since yung Mojo very low output impedance at yung iPhone ay about 2-5 ohms, mas malaman at mas tama sa tunog ng magandang subwoofer yung bass ni SE215.
  
  Bawal magbanggit ng store dito kaya no comment ako kung saan mauudition iyan.
  
  Hindi ko pa nasusubukan yung Fiio EX1 kaya hindi ko masasabi kung maganda ba siya sa price

  guys ba't parang andami ng ver ng xiaomi hyrid piston sa l*z*d*? alin ba dun ang ok?

• manfungdarrell on 04 Sep 17 @ 12:12 AM #

  Exposed na yun wires ng HD201 ko, di ko alam kung saan makakabili o anong specs ng cables saka jacks pangReplace..I'm thinking of spending way below 1k, patulong naman ako.

• awakeruze on 04 Sep 17 @ 12:54 AM #

  ^
  My brother had the same problem with his HD201.
  
  IIRC we just looked for a decent stereo 3.5mm to dual RCA cable like this <click here for link> or this <click here for link>
  We then cut off the RCA connectors, stripped the insulation, then soldered the wires to the headphones.
  
  :D

• manfungdarrell on 04 Sep 17 @ 02:10 AM #

  Thanks man..did you solder them to the driver or just connected to the wires?
  how about velour pads? have you tried changing the stock pads?

• awakeruze on 04 Sep 17 @ 02:24 AM #

  ^
  Soldered to the driver,
  
  Haven't tried replacing the pads though.

• localfly on 04 Sep 17 @ 05:14 AM #

  @majingotan
  
  ok sir. thanks, naiintindihan ko na. try ko na lang pumunta sa tindahan baka sakaling meron dun.

• jaibautista on 04 Sep 17 @ 09:11 AM #

  @BlackSG5
  
  Thanks pafs for the feedback!
  
  
  @localfly
  
  Ingat sa mga SE215s selling for very inexpensive prices. If it's too good to be true, then most likely it is.

• vipeeflores on 04 Sep 17 @ 09:53 AM #

  May naka LG V20 or G6 ba sa inyo mga sir? Ok ba yung quad DAC? Planning to get V30 kasi in the future. Hehe

  May bagong collab nanaman si Massdrop at Grace Brothers. Yung SDAC. Kaso parang own take lang nang grace brothers sa design ni nwavguy kaya 80usd lang.
  
  Tempting though. I'm not in need of a DAC, pero nakakatukso yung tatak na Grace.
