Good place to try and buy headphones?

[MidnightLight]

Hi,

I'm looking for a shop where I can try out and purchase some good headphones (for personal use) for a reasonable price.

Right now, I've got my eye on just some entry-level cans (Sennheiser HD-212 Pro or HD-497), but I couldn't find them anywhere yesterday other than at Challenger Funan and one shop at Sim Lim, but both had pretty expensive prices (S$109). Anyone knows where to get these headphones at a better price?

I do want to try out somewhat more expensive headphones, though, with the possibility of getting one of those instead.

Any advice? Thanks.

I had the honour of using the HD497, it was good, but not spectacular.

Do a google for sgheadphones, there's more info there.

Thanks for the reply! Are you referring to http://www.sgheadphones.com/ ? There doesn't seem to be any site at that address...?

Hi Lifehouse,
What didn't you like about the HD-497?

No man it's www.sgheadphones.net

Cool, thanks! Kinda weird that the correct web site doesn't show up at all when you google for "sgheadphones".

I have the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro and HD 500. Depends on ur taste and personal perfernces. Certain few Sony headphones are good but I have a grudge against Sony.
