Id take the Mele over the 03 any day of the week given how awkward the fit is + infamously bad stock cable that forces most people to upgrade which will put the 03's total cost to around the same price as the mele.

That cable was meme-level bad. That ear hook lol.

How do these hold up vs the moondrop aria?

Didn't you find any sibilance when you listened to death metal? That interesting to me. Could you tell me more, please
