Are these for sale or just prototypes?

I now have the EDC3. What kinds of improvements can be heard when comparing it against the MD+?

If I get the chance, I'd try that out :)

The place I audition was pretty quiet. Almost like library quiet (and lets not talk about some libraries are more noisy than some) so the environment I was in was pretty ideal. The FH5s fit pretty well too, taking these 2 conditions I can say listening condition was pretty good. I guess when I...

Had a chance to try the FH5. On classical, vocal, jazz music that I played, there's always so much midrange all the way to upp midrange, its just isn't a balance sound. there's much clarity though. I wonder why didn't the DD do some magic into the midrange, and there's so much emphasis on the...

Never felt my IT04s dry. I fit them with Acoustune 07 tips and I drove them with Schitt gear,

Where to try them in Singapore

You can include massdrop EDC3 n ibasso IT01 in ur consideration too ? I found the latter having a fun bass line, but more than what I like in terms of quantity. EDC has a more balanced sound. Both have slight warmth in their tone. Easy to listen too

I've own 3 pairs of harbeth speakers (still have 2 with me) M series harbeth are neutral and great timbre, natural and accurate tone, home series (eg SHL5, C7) do sound warmer but not losing much the attributes of M series While harbeth have a warm sound, none of them have the coloration of that...

For usd100, I'd say, EDC3 again, if you are looking for a warm sound. I listen to jazz with it and I think it's pretty good for the money I've heard good about IT01, though i havent hear that myself

yes. create a massdrop account, and you can search for EDC3. i think EDC3 is currently dropping for another few days

thank you for your review. It was clearly written, to the point with simple descriptives, thus perfectly enjoyable to read. In addition to brief background of the how N8 came about. Definitely interesting for a keen buyer as myself. Can I also ask if: 1) what music did you use for the...

Massdrop EDC 3.

I had a chance to listen to IT04 n polaris. I my memory the polaris has a more incisive slam a little faster but not as coherent thru the rest of the music. Polaris has a more up front treble vs smoother treble on the it04 I think polaris will give me more listening fatigue over time, but...

I really wanted to get the zishan 4497 as a portable source to drive iem/ciems but for its 22ohm impdendance, many of iems would not be performing their best and I have no need for it to drive high impedance headphones since my desktop amp could do that :(
