Review: Fischer Audio's DBA-02 - Page 8

Can anybody confirm if these have triple drivers? I was looking at a Russian review (translated into English: Google Preložiť) and one of the posters said it has 3 drivers and 2 of them are paired. It's the third reply.

I'm hoping for alot..... if they come close to the hype, it wil be a great investment. I have decided against an further dynamic driver iems (although the FX700 would be my first choice)
Hope all is well with you buddy, growing my music collection. Going to pick up a laptop if I feel up to it on Monday, I was shocked when I heard what the udac did for my wifes laptop, (she resisted) but was very happy with it.

Most of the experts commenting on these don't seem to be into rock/metal music. How would you consider these for that type of music since it is about half of my listening? I was sold on the Panasonics HJE900's for this reason. I understand that the FA's will likely be miles ahead in every other category, but I'm looking for a fun exciting IEM.

These have been confirmed to be a true dual-driver IEM.

It will meet your expectations. My only concern is the bright treble.

I'm into rock music and the DBA-02's rock with that type of music. Pun intended.

I played "Money For Nothing" and it sounded amazing. Ditto with TOOL, A Perfect Circle, Blue Oyster Cult, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, The Beatles, etc. It will play exactly what's on those recordings and it will play them damn well.

The treble isn't bright at all. I'm very sensitive to highs and the DBA-02 has yet to make me flinch. It's not sibilant at all.

However, keep in mind that sibilance is very source dependent.

I'd be interested to see how these FA DBA-02 compete with the top tier IEMs that cost twice to three times the price...

That Russian site that someone linked to has a lot of interesting info and comparisons to triple-fis, sa6, etc, but it's pretty colloquial, so those not fluent in Russian will have a hard time using google translate on it, shame really.

JH-13 is more than 6 times the price of DBA, UE-10 costs $900, TF10,W3 costs 200+. isn't that enough?
