Hard to tell the scale on that graph, is that a 4 db bass boost which should work fine, or 20 which would be a mess?

What other recent IEMs do you have in the $150 range to compare them with? I have the regular Duoza and I don't think they are that good. I' d be courious to see how these compare to the original Duoza or other iems in that price range.

Fiio F9 Pro with eq to drop that 8k peak is still my pic over anything new including FH3, blon, yssi, etc. Superior technicalities, soundstage and perfect fit.

That's like your opinion. For me the Blon 03 has a much more enjoyable and natural tonality while 01 just another average IEM with a weird tonality and unatural midrange. It already went into the retired drawer while 03 is still in daily rotation along with $300-400 IEMs.

Which TWS is closest to something like BLON 03?

Blon 03 is better than everything in your list. FH3 if you want one step up.

I'm also using normal. I can hear the bass when there's not much around it, but if I listen to metal or busy tracks, drums and other instruments will drown it too much for my taste. For example I was just listening to this and the notes are clear on some other sets, not so much on Buds Pro...

Does anyone else find the bass guitars to be lacking on Buds Pro?

Basically used this guide https://imgur.com/a/gs0cRAB? , you don't need to remove the driver to access the gimble joints, though it is a lot easier to access if you desolder at least one wire from the headband. Use only plastic safe lube, silicone, PTFE etc. I had some plastic gearing lubricant...

Today I breathe new life into my old Q701 that I haven't used in years. Actually, I never used it much other than gaming. The sound was good but the uncomfortable bumps and constant cracking at every move made me want to pick any of my other headphones over it. Took it apart and used plastic...

Eager to hear how you think Buds Pro compares to Elite 85t. Other than the fact I find the Buds Pro a bit sibilant, another thing I think they don't do too well, is pulling you into the music. Like how when I so something while listening to Sony N3 for example and find myself more often getting...

This is my experience too. After a few days of owning them I got to the point I now dread having to listen to any song with female vocals on it, the sibilance is just so grating. A shame cause everything else is almost perfect, they fit great, they don't sound congested as other TWS I've tried...

Samsung AKG that came with the S10 phone if you can find an original pair. Easy to drive, good sound balance, big bass, better details and best soundstage. Found them better than both Blons or Final. If you want only one pair for both music and games, get the 03. Best for music and easier to...

Did they fixed the horrible driver flex?

03 are some of the best fitting IEMs I have. I guess one man' s garbage is another's treasure

BL-01 are really good, I was surprised tonight when I took them to the gym to listen after previously auditioning the Sony N3 at home. they didn't feel much of a downgrade and they are pretty similar in sound signature too. Definitely much better than the Tripowin TC01 I took to the gym...

Got mine. First impressions, there is some glare and slight sibilance, highs are kind of unrefined, bass has enough quantity but lacks impact making drum hits pretty uneventful. Also sound is too in your head for my liking. All in all, another generic $50 IEM with nothing special about it, I...

Curious to see how these compare to FD5. Seems like these two are the new DD soundstage champions in this price range.

After having just sent a $350 IEM back to China twice now in a process that took over half a year now just to receive another one with problems from a major seller I am done. I'm taking the loss and never buying another ChiFi unless it's sold by Amazon with extra protection plan.

How do they respond to EQ? Can the bass reach cheat thumping levels without getting weird and more weight added to the midrange.

Are you sure, cause to me 5k is darker than 4k by quite a bit.

Any driver flex on these? I only have the Sora Light 2019 and I like the sound, but the driver flex is so bad I can't listen to them at all, at the slightest move of the jaw or even head the sound drastically changes.

I'm ready for my first disappointment of 2021, ordered the TC01.

There are a few that have similar sound signatures. For example ISN N40 is pretty close to N3. Problem is nothing I've tried in that price range managed to get even close to the build quality, form factor and sound of N3. I don't know why I keep spending thousands on chi fi when i could've got...

Less bass than FH3? Glad I waited for the reviews. Still waiting for Fiio to come out with another IEM that does bass as well as the FH5 but with better tonality. That bass was spectacular.
