Actually Heaven C is FI-BA-SA, confusing I know.
It is overall an mid centric sounding IEM to my ears. Pretty good sounding, but nothing spectacular.
Isn't that your opinion on every Final Audio IEM so far...
and the PF II...
The FI-BA-SS is expensive but it's the most exceptional sounding[COLOR=0000FF] single-driver IEM[/COLOR] ever made and sculpted in stainless steel so it's ok.
I've been using earbuds since I was like 7 years old and got my first Sony Walkman, the Final Audio PF II sounds fine... if I have Sony EX1000 on my desk and take the PF II outside instead clearly they are doing something right, you didn't listen to them correctly.

Atomic Floyd makes all of their IEM in Stainless steel as well and look better in person than FAD's housing, and I don't see them asking for $1K for their IEM.
You said FAD are form over function, if I recall correctly you compared them to Bang & Olufsen in a different thread. My counterpoint is they have the best sounding single driver IEM, that is a very high sonic achievement.
I compared the FI-BA-SS with JH Audio JH11, which are of equal price, and the JH is technically better, but there is no fairness in the comparison, it's like comparing a $1000 special flute from Japan to a $1000 xylophone.
For the PF II, it really isn't overpriced.
