2nd hand prices for these have dropped so much, even if they don't come up that often. Is Final coming up with a new flagship IEM soon or something?
All sales are dropping. People have less disposable income. crappy time to be a seller. How much are they now?
Are they comfortable? Compared to E tips?Recieve New Azla Max tips.
I match A8000 amazingly.
Early impression it reduce the hot highs and push vocal foward and increase lower mids by touch without sacrifice the transparency and speed of the driver
I think it has amazing bass.Thanks, that's encouraging. I'm glad to hear the A8000 is fast.
I know it's not a bass-head IEM, but does the bass reach deep when called for?
These are amazing IEMs. They will scale with the best gear. No ceiling so far.

Anyone using pure silver cable with the A8000? I used to want a copper cable with my old chain as it sounded on the edge of sibilance. Recently I'm running Chord Dave and Farad3 upgrade. With the LPS installed it makes things sound a lot more analog and smooth. All details are there but sibilance is all gone. Trying to get a bit of the edge back with 100% silver cable. Thoughts? Thanks.
My friend here, lafeuill, is using with a pur Silver cable, the Dunu Blanche, and it's just great.
Maybe, you should try an Artic Cable Signum, or a Satin Audio Medusa.
The Dunu Blanche seems to be no longer available.

Yes they are very similarAre they comfortable? Compared to E tips?
I think chain setup is very important with these headphones. I used to find them slightly sibilant but now with my new chain they sound great. Very balanced. Great authorative bass. These IEMs scale very well and I personally would prefer them than Arya V2 etc.
They are transparent and have great energy. Nothing sounds too have too much or too little energy. When using my Iphone vs Dave + Farad3 ... I notice lack of bass, soundstage, treble etched etc. Still can listen to it but not enveloping as my main setup.
Anyone running the A8000 with a TOTL system? Wondering what your thoughts are? Thanks.
What are good warmer portable paring for the A8000? A smaller DAP would be good for the gym. Any ideas? Thanks everyone.

I was listening them with my beloved Aune m1s (low gain, symetry, fast filter) = perfect
Yes, they are very good. I think the Susvara beats them by a big margin though. I prefer these over LCD5, Arya V2, HD600 etc.With good system a8k only lose at soundstage compared to any tier 0 headphone.
But the transparency of a8k i only heard this level of transparency with 009s...

Yes, but open full size vs uiem = logical.
Ceiling keeps going to new heights. Added a Ferrum OOR + HYPSOS to the Dave + Farad3 chain. The Final A8000 are singing. So much bass. Authority. They do not sound like IEMs. More akin to Headphones. I think they beat the LCD5 in my book.
What are one of the best copper cables that can pair well with the A8000? I just added an SR Purple fuse to the Hypsos and the A8000 doesn't have a ceiling yet. Just keeps up as the chain gets better. These IEMS have great transparency. Great micro details. Authoritative bass. Very nice. I am unfairly comparing them to TOTL headphones and I am still impressed.
