Not sure what you mean by price jump as they were originally like $300 I believe and definitely worth that as well.Thanks, do you think the blessing 2's price jump of $240 are justified for it's performance?

Maybe over starfield?Not sure what you mean by price jump as they were originally like $300 I believe and definitely worth that as well.
On a technical level, absolutely. Tonality wise, highly subjective. Without EQ, Blessing 2 is bright neutral while Starfield is somewhat warm neutral.Maybe over starfield?
Moondrop SSR if you value the fit most.
Calculated it wrong. The difference was like $200 when I saw the deal.Thanks, do you think the blessing 2's price jump of $240 are justified for it's performance?
Calculation mistake, the difference was like $180. Couldn't order one, the deals finishedNot sure what you mean by price jump as they were originally like $300 I believe and definitely worth that as well.
Yes, the SSRs are the smallest IEMs I've ever come across that are worn over the ear. The sound signature isn't for everyone though, and if you like to crank up the volume they're definitely not for you. Supposedly the SSP is imminent which keeps the same design and driver as the SSR but adds a bass boost. The jury is still out on whether it is really the bass of the SSR that is lacking in the first place, or whether there's just too large a boost in the upper mids to begin with.
Thank you for the input! Will check it out. I've read some reviews about the Fiio FD1 and EA1 as well as other popular IEMs but I'm wondering how much of an upgrade the FH3 would be from the more affordable offerings. I'm avoiding getting into the rabbit hole if I could buy one that I can use as an all-rounder but the $30-60 price tag of some is certainly hard to pass-up.
Looking back at your original question, I think the T2 Plus would fit the bill in terms of the qualities you're looking for. Caveats: MMCX connectors can be problematic, so buy from a vendor with a return policy; isolation is not brilliant (I use mine exclusively at home, can't enjoy them on the subway).
I ordered one too. Got drawn in by it's 'alleged' massive bass. It's beng touted as the 'Smabat Black Bat'. Smabat make good buds.Well, just took a chance and ordered a pair of "Smabat 1" from Aliexpress. Apparently it's got a Graphene driver? Couldn't find any reviews or anything so I'm going in blind on this one lol. I'll report back in month or however long it takes me to get them.

I have the Smabat NCO which also has a Graphene driver. Bass is superb but this IEM is more balanced, not basshead.That cable is really nice looking
