The place to go to high end portable audio and high end headphones. Very courteous and…read moreknowledgeable staff; will not sell you what you are not looking for! Wide selection of high end headphone brands. Came here to try before I buy; I didn't feel rushed to make a decision and was able to pick out the headphone/DAC usb amp combination that sounded the best for me and my budget. A nice plus was that the staff directed me to where I can get great flac files of the music genre I listen to.

My dad is into the audio business. He basically rents out speakers and such. It's called Spectrum…read moreAudio Concepts, yeah it's a shameless and gratuitous plug but it's my dad so gimme a break. Anyway, I'm not as particular as my dad nor are my ears as sharp as his, but I do have some idea of what good quality sound equipment is all about. That said, the Listening Room is a good store if you're looking for good audio equipment. In fact, it's also the store to go to if you're looking for ultra high end expensive off of the wall price jaw dropping expensive audio equipment. We're talking about some of the sort of equipment that professionals use. This aint a store for newbs or neophytes is what I'm getting at here. Also, if you're walking into this store, be sure that you have the wallet to keep up with their prices.

I'm not impulsive when it comes to buying appliances. I usually take my time learning about the…read moreproduct that I plan to buy. I also try to look for great deals from several appliance centers. Since home appliances can cost a lot, I want to make sure that I'll be getting great value for my money. Last year, my relentless search for a supplier of audio-video appliances has led me to AVX Audio Video Center in Harrison Plaza. An uncle told me about his good experience with this store. So, I went to the old Harrison Plaza Mall along with my techie brother to check out the items sold at AVX. I was impressed that such a small shop in such an old mall could offer unbelievably good deals in state-of-the-art home entertainment systems like high-definition TVs and home network receivers. The store also has a full line of the latest electronic gadgets from powerbanks to wireless speakers and repeaters. What I like about AVX is the variety of brands they carry. No matter how much your budget is, here you will surely find an electronic product or appliance that will suit your needs. This appliance store is open every day from 10:00am to 8:00pm.

Not so surprising as the majority of the shares are owned by the best university in the world the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. If you do have the money to spend, I would get all my home audio systems, speakers and noise cancelling headphones with Bose. It's a bit more expensive in the short term, but they last so much longer and the sound is just incredible. Just go to the store and ask them to play your favority song on your phone and you'll find out it worth your money. I bought a 10000php Bose SoundLink Mini here that uses Bluetooth to play music from my phone and you can also link it to other portable devices. It honestly improved my life.

When I first saw Egghead in Robinsons Galleria, I was so sure they would close down before I could…read moreeven blink. How would a store survive paying mall rent month after month just selling different kinds of earphones and headphones? I apparently misjudged them and underestimated the power of audiophiles. If you're a seasoned audiophile with millions of Pesos worth of equipment, or a neophyte at the scene looking for a budget friendly pair of headphones, Egghead is the best place to go to. Its good location means you can get here from practically all forms of public transport. Inside their store, there are literally more than a hundred headphone and earphone combinations you can try out depending on your needs. Want a little more bass, or something more balanced? Are you good with a bang for your buck pair, or is the sky the limit? All of these questions and more can be answered at Egghead.

There are many places to get hi-fi audio systems in Manila, but this shop on the fourth floor of…read moreShangri-La mall is probably my favorite. Mainly because of two brands that they carry. Firstly, they're the only distributor of Adam equipment in Manila. The German brand is one of the top, top names in hi-fi audio and music production due to its quality and sonic capabilities. My main gig is audio production for commercials and I've been used to creating music on Adam equipment abroad, so this place the only shop in the city that I could purchase a pair of the fabled Adam A7X studio monitors. They're expensive, but they're OMG SO WORTH IT. Second, they carry Focals. In Manila, Focal is known for great car audio systems but not much else. Guys, Focal is SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT. This French brand has fantastic home audio systems as well as studio-quality monitors and headphones. They will cost you an arm and a leg as well, but if you have the cash and/or you're a beatmaker wanting the best of the best, you better get on the Focal train (and Adam, don't forget).

The only decent product I feel that Bang & Olufsen have made is the BeoLab 5, which is the flagship…read morespeaker. Having said that, I just feel very indifferent towards their quality of sound, or shall I say professional sound. For me, I'm a Trance music/Progressive House music fan, so perhaps Bang & Olufsen is not the best company for me to invest in. Nonetheless, the BeoCom 1401, which is the wired land-line telephone, is really good; and I've had that since 2004; but as of now they are permanently discontinued, which is a serious shame.

So, if you want to drop a a few grand on a sound system, then sure, why not. If you wanna drop a hundred thousand on a sound system, okay, sure. Might as well head over the Bang and Olufsen then. At that price point, you aren't just buying cans that make noise; you're buying into an aesthetic, a particular design sense. The salespeople here aren't quite articulate enough to explain the 'art' behind each item, but they are friendly enough to try. Bang and Olufsen combine metals and woods into angular shapes that suggests a futurism grounded in earthy materials. It's the type of sound system that really brings together a room, assuming you live in a giant mansion.
