My Massdrop Heaven III is on its way and due to arrive Christmas Eve. Before New Year's Eve, I will give my initial impressions.

Will do. I paid just shy of $73, including shipping.

Initial impressions: With FAD's reputation, I had high expectations for the H III. They have more than met those expectations. The H IIIs render voices, by far, better than any sub-$100 earphone I have had/listened. They provide an exquisite detail, differentiation, and intimacy for vocals I have never heard before. Well -respected earphones like the Havi B3 and RE-00 can't hold a candle to the H III for vocals and in my limited time, overall. Sonically, there are no areas that are not top-tier for the Heaven III compared to other sub $100 earphones that I can compare them to. The cable is very prone to noise. The cable easily becomes a tangled mess. The packaging was similar to Amazon no nonsense packaging. Taken with a grain of salt as I haven't tried everything under $100, The Heaven III is the real deal if you want the best mids for under $100.

Not gonna argue with that :) but really it's party piece is in the mids, it manage to make me think a second time when I a/b it with Noble K10U, and wonder "just why would people pay so much more for just a variance?" I might be biased as I Love HII's vocal representation, but still..
