W have numbers of satisfied customers coming from SE215 to Ei.3I have two questions for you guys which you can hopefully answer.
First of all my current setup: Sony Xperia XZ premium with shure se 215
I am looking for a set of my first custom iem's. The earphones i love the most until this date where the Phonak audeo pfe 132 which were unfortunately damaged in a tripping accident.
I am willing to spend around 350 Euros on my first pair of custom iems.
So therefore i am currently deciding between the FIBAE1 and the EI.3
From what i have read so far the EI.3 seems to have a bit more base and the FIBAE seems to be more neutral.
From my point of view i am leaning towards the EI.3 but i have some questions regarding the technical specs:
i have seen, that the EI.3 has a pretty high impedance. Is this headphone going to be loud enough with just my smartphone?
I like the concept of the FIBAE with the flat impedance thing...
So which earphone do you find the better choice for me?
2. Question: Would you rather go toward recessed 2 pin socket or mmcx?
Thanks in advance Phil
FIBAE1 would be closer to Audeo with less/smoother highs
Impedance of Ei.3 is not a problem as their relatively high SPL makes them quite loud.
Definitely 2-pin recessed. MMCX will wear quicker especially if you plan on detaching IEMs often.
