On the contrary, because it is assembled by hand, there are less chances that you would have a bad quality unit, because he takes care in assembling it, and testing it. After placing order, he takes 2-3 weeks to prepare it completely. He won't send a unit that has been poorly assembled.
The FD3 has excellent bass, especially with the bass nozzles installed. There's lots of detail as well. Definitely worth a try.
I have another question: if I have reduced mids and trebles, don't I lose in microdetail capture? I've had a Tin Audio T2 Pro before and it had really high treble, some users complained about sibilance, I loved it.
I check this thread several times a day just waiting for the preorder link to be posted so I can buy it.
Dusk is a highly revealing, detailed, textured, accurate imaging, realistic soundstage iem. The only downside I can see is if your a bass head but given your ordering the Dusk you more than likely already know its a neutral sound signature.
I wouldn’t consider myself much of a basshead. I think my main concern is being so used to using over ears almost all the time, and using the K371 as my office pair but feeling they’re just a tad too vanilla and lacking in detail (although they do sound good). I know IEMs aren’t headphones, but at the time, good IEMs at this price point were few and far between. Now there’s way more options, especially compared to closed backs, where most of the best options either are too expensive or not portable enough.Dusk is a highly revealing, detailed, textured, accurate imaging, realistic soundstage iem.

However the texture you get from the bass notes are excellent. And you can always eq a bit more bass if you want, just do it in very small increments imo. I never eq any of my iems but some people do and have success with it.
I've never listened to k371 but usually iems soundstage are gonna be more in your head than over the ear headphones. But one thing I can promise you is detail. You will get plenty of detail and very accurate imaging. Good seperation of instruments mainly from left to right but you do get some thing behind the head or just above your head (depends on music). The soundstage isnt big, but the soundstage is extremely tasteful and not congested at all. A very pleasing iem all around especially for the money.
