Has anyone compared these FLC8's to any of the following: ATH IM03, Dunu dn2000j, Fidue a83?
 
I posted in the help section and those are the recommendations people came up with in the 300-400 range.
 
Sources will be:
Ibasso DX90
Ibasso D6 (USB DAC/Amp)
Soundblaster Zx
or

Yuppers. Wrote it and decided not to post. Ten days just wasn't anywhere near enough time with them, and I personally don't think I have the experience with iems at this level to properly review them. Still, it was a great experience and a product I was thrilled to have the chance to listen to.

Pity, I trust it might have been a home-pager review if you had more time.

having heard the ckr9 b4, sadly to say, flc8s has the more superior mids.I rmb how one member compares the mids of UERM to FLC8S as FLC8S being the winner.
Cheers

  IIRC, the mids of FLC are more airy than CKR lineup (I'm referring 9 and 10)


In my honest opinion the FLC8s was built on the mid-centric platform, all other frequency ranges are filtered to enhance that mid in some fashion. I also feel music lives in the mid section which has always fascinated me about the old two way speaker where your mids were a combination of what was designed into the tweeter and woofer (and of course the X-Over) to give that image of a mid-range in the middle. To me that alone was some tricky engineering

So I have an opinion as well as everyone does there kinda like everyone has an ^$$#0!@, With such a subjective hobby everyone can be right and everyone can be wrong, I feel after 3 weeks of listening the FLC8s can hang with a lot of the big boys at easily 2 or 3 times their price. And that's how I feel about them

Thats actually good news. I mean , whats the point of getting the FLC8s if its inferior to my CKR-9s right?

The airier and more detailed , the better.
