. few people on the forum complained about Final Audio's build issues therefore the After Service/ warranty support is a must for the FA IEMs, specially the A1 model.
Do you have a pair of FA, which ones?

I checked out the FAD stuff and I'm worried about the build quality of them as mentioned in the previous post, since getting warranty will probably be a huge hassle since i'm in Canada and they are coming from HK.
Anyone know how the bass of the EX1000 compares to IE8 on the lowest setting?
and I'll be using the earphones with a Cowon J3 without an amp.
Aside from one issue about channel imbalance on a pair of BA-A1's, I am not aware of any other problems that anyone has had with the FAD's. The build quality of the 1601 and BA series is extremely high, and although many people feel that the cables on some models are not up to the mark, there have been no reports of cables actually failing.
I have both the 1601SB and the BA-SS.
My personal experience with FAD's After-sales service has been positive. Over the past one year, I have sent them several emails asking for information which have always been promptly and courteously answered. To my knowledge, FAD are the only manufacturer to offer free of charge replacement ear tips for life. I recently requested tips for my BA-SS which were promptly sent.
I therefore think any concerns about FAD's reliability or after-sales service are unfounded.
