Yes I understand and I'm only one person but the old B3 thread had a lot of love for them before it got closed. Fwiw they're still on to of my ranking after a year and a lot of new challengers in my collection during this time.


+1 :wink:

I guess we just have to agree to disagree. The B3's to my ears are slightly on the warm side and I find them warmer than the IM70's. Less bass yes but still warmer.

 
Yeah i believe they're a little coloured...Not very neutral and with not a natural timbre. So, the perception can be as a little warm, you have a point.
 
About the fit, get foams. Squeeze the foam, put into the ear and let the foam work it's form. Then the IEM is hold by the foam and can't hardly be feel in the ear, very confortable.
 
The B3 is not about measures, it's about how it sounds unique and especial with it's flaws

 i just wonder if these havi's are really that good or its more of an hype, cuz i think UE600 which is currently priced under $50 can give these a run for their money.

 
No, they can't and they aren't hype. UE600 can not hold a candle to Havis. UE600 is no where the Havi B3. Havi B3 is that good!

Well it might come as a surprise but I 100% agree on the bold part :wink:

You're talking about these tips right?



Unfortunately they're to big to stick in my ears and I'm not able to find them in any other size. Might be good for most people not using xs or s sized tips normally though.

That's possible and I'm certainly not going to claim that I know better than him. I'm just telling how I feel about them and to my ears the B3's are on a different level :wink:

i have been reading this thread for a while... i am wondering between ie800, ultrasone iq, 1plus2 and akg k3003. The best seems 1plus2, but i cannot seem to buy it anymore, it is not produced anymore. akg k3003 seems just a very very overpriced iem from all points of view...
 
i am left to choose between ie800 and ultrasone iq. i enjoy lots of sounstage, treble, recesed mids, and tight bass [i hate too much bass, like sennheiser ie8]..
 
ie800 doesn't seem to be around here at all...
Does the iq have a treble roll off, which would make them sound. plastic.metallic.withoutsoundstage.cheap?...
what is everyone thinking that would be better between ie800 and iq?

Can anyone help me get the best deal for $80? I need great earphones that have a huge sense of space and great detail retrieval with bass. Also, the build needs to be good. Is the IM70 any good?

Yes, the im70's are a good option for what you're looking for.

+1 on the IM70. For $80 with good stage and separation and good bass, I think that's your best bet. You can check out the review in my sig to see more of my impressions.
