just received mine today,
other than minor paint / glue residue on the nozzle on my particular copy (at this point probably everyone that reads my review / view my YT channel knows im a perfectionists and super obsessed with small things
)
the MS3 sounds good out of the box with stock balanced filters, stock 4.4mm cable, stock balanced eartips
also the cable this time is very good quality with good comfort, no more ear pain even after wearing it for hours !
this one definitely has a super good value in my opinion.
probably the only cons of my review(soon) for the MS3 is that the nozzle painting / glue residue of my particular unit is not smooth / well polished? (im sorry for my weird english, my brain is not braining right now
)
edit :
after wiping the IEM with alcohol wipes, the paint / residue that im talking is fixed !
its probably just excess glue residue
