    Thanks! Definitely glad to hear that the treble smooths out over time since I did initially find the treble to be slightly sharp out of the box.

    Amazing review! I have a pair of the B3’s that I have been testing for the past couple of days and your review basically put my vague impressions into a very articulate written review! You stated that in your time with the B3 that the treble smooths out a bit due to the cable burn in if I read...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I just got the B1 today so it’s only been a couple of hours of burn in but even with that little amount of time I am already very impressed with the sound! I can’t wait to experience them after the full ~150 hours of burn in needed as I’m sure they will sound even more amazing than they do...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I absolutely agree that the B3 has superior imgaing and resolution since the bass is much more tight and controlled on the B3. I am torn between the B3 and B1 since I love the thick bass of the B1 but I also really love the clarity of the B3. Its so hard to decide between the two since I’m only...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    So got my hands on the B1 today after testing out the B3 for a couple of days. From an initial listen, it is immediately noticeable that the bass is more prominent on the B1. I won’t comment too much on the sound just of yet due to the need to burn in the dynamic driver, but so far even without...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I also have a pair of the E5000 and decided to go with the B3 since I was also looking for a different sound signature from the E5000. I can’t comment on what the B1 sounds like, but the B3 is definitely way different than the E5000. The low end on the B3 is more tight, speedy, and controlled...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Thanks for bringing up these two points. The chord mojo does have the tendency to widen the soundstage as well as slightly warm the sound of iems. Also, i think I used the term warm a little too loosely as well. The B3 are no where near as warm as the E5000, but they are not as analytical or as...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    So I’ve been listening to the Final Audio B3 for the last couple of days and wanted to chime in with my first impressions and how I think it compares to the E5000. From the get go the B3 are definitely less warm than the E5000 with the bass being very tight and controlled which was what I was...

    Review of Audio Technica ATH-CKR9 & ATH-CKR10

    I am not familiar with the musicmaker tk12. What kind of sound signature are you looking for?? If its crisp, clear, airy, detailed, musical, fast, and effortless, then the R2PROs are the perfect match for you.

    Review of Audio Technica ATH-CKR9 & ATH-CKR10

    Trust me, the soundstage is one of the widest I've ever heard in an IEM. The tips are some jvc spiral dotsI had on the CKR10's. Also, I've heard that the spintips dont really work well with the R2PRO, but try them for yourself and decide which ones sound best to you. Personally, I think the...

    ​CKR10 vs R2PRO size comparison.

    Review of Audio Technica ATH-CKR9 & ATH-CKR10

    ​Hmm, to me the CKR10's are very intimate, close, very warm. The R2PRO's, however, just have a sense of openness and airiness that is addicting. The main difference that I hear is the soundstage. The R2PRO makes listening to the CKR10's akin to sitting in a very, very small, claustrophobic room...

    Review of Audio Technica ATH-CKR9 & ATH-CKR10

    ​I bought them for a steal on ebay for $300 (they're usually $578), and I'm using my geekout v2 infinity amp/dac to drive them.
