I wonder when we will see a tribrid IEM from Moondrop.
Imagine a tribird version of the S8!

Hope Blessing3 to be tribrid, with price range of DUNU EST112, under $500.

No kidding, that would be something i'd probably insta buy!

It is actually feasible, as you can buy a pair of sonion EST set for $120 on aliexpress, simply adding B2($319)+$120 would land to $439 add some tuning and profit for $30, I’d sell arojnd $469, a bit lower than EST112

Found a store in Canada has the Aria in stock ordered will arrive this week.

How is the stock cable and tips. Hear the cable is fabric covered? Make it better or worse.

Could you share the store link?
I was planning to buy from Hifigo/aliexpress/Apos audio but if there is a Canadian one maybe I will support a Canadian store.

The stock tips are a bit stiff. I found the KZ starline tips to work better for the Aria.

The cable is fabric covered and feels pretty durable. Has a bit of memory though.

I think stock works fine.

For your ears? You may want to finally sprig for those Final Type Es, bud. That or some Sednas. Moondrop's stock tips aren't terrible, but I think you're going to run into seal issues otherwise.

Fwiw that's exactly what I'm doing with my Blessing 2.

Ironically I had the final.type E I tried to make work for a tws but they were the iem model and too long. Might have to reorder them.

Anyone try tip flipping?

Usually fabric covered cables are categorized as high-end, which you pay over $50-100. So for a $80 to come with those high-end fabric covered cable it was very enlightening to me. It usually has better touch.

Ironically my Audeze LCDi3 is more expensive and has a cable way cheaper than the cable that comes with the cheaper Aria.

I've replaced a lot of Shure MMCX and Audeze 2-pin cables. Unironically, the janky-looking VE 2-pin cables work great for the iSine/LCDi as they include that much-needed notch. It also hasn't died yet, unlike my stock iSine cable, which developed a short 3 months after I got them. That flat cable was a bad idea lol.

I found that the Arias are slightly cheaper from Shenzhen Audio via amazon.co.uk rather than via AE (once taxes are taken into account) and so I ordered a pair last night for £69. I'm hoping that any defective unit issues will be easier to process through Amazon rather than AE, even where it's a 3rd party Amazon seller. Just need to wait the c.4 weeks for the Arias to ship from China - looking forward to my first Moondrop IEMS.
