SE-DRS3000c quality

Hi,

I am planning to buy these from japan but i have a few questions if anyone could answer them?

1. Are these made in japan or china? I know they are sent form japan but are they made in japan too? chinese products are crapy no matter how expensive they are.

2. Do they sound much better than old SE-DIR800c model? i own that and it lacks bass as we all know...has 3000 corrected this issue?

3. Some people are facing the hissing sound issue, is that common? is it too loud?

Thanks guyz

Re: SE-DRS3000c quality

they are made in japan and top quality , i cant compare them to the previous
model as i have not heard them. yuo wont be disapointed with the base theres loads of it and a base boost as well . the only sound issues ive had is
the odd pop and click but more of a problem when using my ps3 a cutting out
of sound but i think its a clashing of signals from controller and headphones
if you have any more questions just ask

Where did you buy them? audiocubes? i asked about the make from an ebay seller and he says they are made in china, maybe hes selling the chinese version hence a bit cheaper than audiocube.

I have bought the same headphone and I am found of it: better as my integrated system home cinema!
BUT I have an issue with the sound level which is too high and that I haven't been to modulate : I have found no volume modulation button and I only have the Japanese user guide, I haven't been able to find a solution ...

config 1: direct link with numerical coaxial cable or optical cable between my BD player and the headphone base

config 2: link with numerical coaxial cable or optical cable between my BD player and my home cinema, then link with numerical coaxial cable or optical cable between home cinema player and the headphone base - when I change the volume on my home cinema; it doesn' change the sound in the headphones ...

could someone please help me?

thanks in advance!

I just brought the Pioneer SE-DRS3000C and they have to be the best headphones Iv'e ever had and so easy to setup! The volume is just above the right headphone - a toggle swich + - which works very well for me.

I'm wondering why we can't get thease Pioneer SE-DRS3000C in the UK, perhaps someone will tel me!!

one advice, dont get it from ebay! Buy it from japan yourself coz they are selling like 250 quid exclusive delivery and then you'll get VAT tax when they arrive in uk.

Try to buy directly from amazon jp. They'll be selling it at a much cheaper price of around 24000 yen ~ 180 quid and delivery will cost you around 5500 yen. That's what I did to get mine and I must say, it's pretty impressive for movies/music. For gaming 5.1, i'd say it's just above average and yeah there's the occassional pop and click sound but it happens rarely enough to bother me
