Thank you very much.
 
I am very happy with with the comfort of this headphone. FA-003 with the box is lighter than my ath m50 itself. If i didn't read LFF review, i would open the package when i picked it up at DHL to make sure it's not just an empty box. Can't imagine headphone can be more comfortable than this.
 
I am very happy with frogbeats, . Very kind, very helpful, very fast, one of the best.

I played the file and it seems in the center to me but not sure if it's dead center. good enough?


Yes...good enough.
 
Sounds like the recording you were listening to was the problem. Not uncommon.

It will depend for me. Not sure how I will survive months without my Fa-002ws. Guess we will see how much of a difference there is soon enough.



Just an early report...there is a huge difference IMHO.
 
Good or bad....you'll have to wait for my review.

Hey all, I'm about to pull the trigger and buy one of these but i'm wondering how good are they for soundtrack music like "epic score or two steps from hell" compared to H558 (my other alternative buy)? Also is there any mods to replace the current pads with velour?

So as it seems, the "new" 003 is just cosmetically new/ updated?
If so, I won't wait longer to get one...
 
I guess the High Edition 002w will be at least as much as the original woodies - but probably even more -, so It's pretty much out of question for me right now...maybe the 002 without wood caps if there will be a high ed model like that

Thanks for the great review. I am sold and am about to buy this along with a pair of the FA-011. My understanding is that you can swap the cups to the wood editions FA-002w cups. Could anyone comment on what the process is and how difficult it is to swap to the wood edition cups? Can you switch back and forth without destroying anything? Thanks!

Looking forward to the new 003 impressions, LFF

I'm sure somewhere along the line in this thread someone has compared the FA-003 to the Shure 940. Any thoughts??

This was a good decision. These cans are so good. I knew they would be good, but not this good. Also, Alexey from Fischer Audio told me they are looking into setting up faculties to upgrade FA-002ws to the high editions for about $50. So you may have that option down the road.



awesome.. I love when I make a choice and then it has hidden benefits like this
