CustomArt FIBAE Impressions Thread

[SchwarzeWolke]

Looks gorgeous!
Got a message from Kamil, my second run of impressions arrived. Now I have to be patient and wait...

I have to say, the overall experience with Piotr and Kamil is second to none. They really take their time and even answer to my stupendous questions if a package has arrived.

So I had an incredibly long day of travel...woke up at 3:30am, had four flights, arrived home at 1:00am. My day was brightened with this package...

That blue/white swirl is drool-worthy.

So many cool designs, mine are going to look sooooooo boring in comparison

Good Morning..so I kinda did a hit and run the other day and posted some pictures of the FIBAE 3 CIEM and the Harmony 8.2 universal, but I didn't really say anything. Piotr thank you I love the simple design of the F3 it is awesome and as you have seen it is receiving compliments, perfect for a guy that likes to keep things low key with class. Also, I was told my order was shipping on Friday and Monday it was at my house, wow I got whiplash form the shipping speed. I have not had much ear time with either of the units, but this evening I plan on giving them some time. I will probably focus on the F3 first since it is the newest offering. The fit, from the short time I have tried it, is phenomenal, very comfortable and I receive a good seal. On brief listen, I was surprised at the differences between the F2 and F3, in the coming days I will touch on it. Giving my head some time to wrap around the F3. I also tried the 8.2 for three test songs and was immediately impressed, one of those love at first listen signatures. I have only used my V30 for the brief listening. I did switch the cable on the F3 to the Ares II but will go back to stock as a comparison for review purposes. I will post my impressions over the coming days but these days I am lovin' some Custom Art, good show.

I'm really looking forward to a comparison between the 8.2 and the F3, I loved the 8.2 but if I have to choose right now between the 2, I would go with the F3.

I was writing up the section about different cables with FIBAE 3 and why oh why did I try Eros II with them.

The Eros II is now my favourite pairing, and my 64 audio U6 will have to live with the Toxic Viper which works better with them than the Ares II.

Ares II works very well with FIBAE 3 but it still adds extra warmth down low which isn't really what I want. Eros II is airy, resolving and detailed, perfect for my tastes with the F3

Do you prefer the Eros over the Ares with the F3?

Very interesting for me, because I searching cable to F3 and I thinking about Eros II.

Do you prefer the Eros over the Ares with the F3?

If you prefer and open and detailed sound the Eros II is excellent.

If you want more body the Ares II is better.

For me I prefer the Eros II, better separation, soundstage and overall detail, whilst still retaining the core signature. That's what I love about the Eros II, it's exceptionally balanced and neutral.

How looks lower mids on F3 with Eros II? I asked, because on stock cable lower mids are too dry for me.
