I have A3000 and A4000 to the review. Thank you very much Final Audio Poland for lending this new products to review.
I listening a little and A3000 sound signature are natural, and A4000 this is baby A8000. Tomorrow I will write review im my nationality languages and maybe next week I will translate to English and I will post here.
E4000 have more body on higher bass and lower mids and weaker sound quality on highs. Sound quality better on A4000. Isolation good on A4000, on E4000 isolation will be better on triple tips.
They did use the term sharper. It is sharper meaning the notes are tighter, and more precise. Not sharp as in bright or having excessive treble. Sharp as in cleaner from bloat or smear and with sharper edges to the notes. Sharper in the good way that has more resolution and better separation.
Got my replacement E3000 today. Bass on the left earpiece is great, just like I was originally expecting
I immediatly notice that the treble and upper-mids are more refined than on my E500, which can get peaky sometimes. The E3000 portrays the proper sparkle without the peakiness.

The E3000's treble is actually darkish, but it scales better with amping. It is a power hungry beast for sure. Burn in is a controversial subject haha, but I've used my Final E3000 for almost 100 hours and it still looks quite tame in the treble for me.
The Final E black tips that are provided in the E3000 are one of my favourite tips for taming treble, I actually use them with bright IEMs. But ironically, they make the darkish treble of the E3000 even darker. So I find something with wider bore tips (or some friends told me the clear Final E tips) can extend the treble better and give more sparkle if u are looking for more higher frequencies.

Yes it is open backed/semi open backed. This explains the nice soundstage, one of the best at the sub $50 USD region. Unfortunately, it is also a double edged sword and causes poor isolation, so I find it is not the best option to be used for a transit IEM (to protect hearing health).

Ya it does sound like a mini open back set actually, when amped. Final E3000 is one of my favourite sub $50 USD sets. It is very non fatiguing and smooth, if they just sold it with a non detachable cable and tightened the midbass, it could be an endgame budget single DD.
Quick pros/cons for Final E3000:
Pros:
Light and comfortable.
Superb imaging and instrument separation at sub $50 price point.
Excellent soundstage.
Natural timbre.
Non fatiguing.
Balanced and sublime mids.
Comes with Final type E (black) tips! (they are one of my favourite tips, but ironically these black Final E tips are not a good pairing with this set, as they may muddy the Final Audio E3000’s treble actually).
Cons:
Noodle thin, non detachable, microphonic cable.
Requires a powerful source to shine.
Poor isolation.
Midbass on the slow/nebulous side, with lack in subbass extension.
Rolled off treble, not the most detailed treble (not for trebleheads).

It is exactly the same for me with the E4000. I love the sound for classical music but isolation is rather poor. I bought comply tips and that improves it but it is still rather poor isolation.
