How does the Sony A3 compare with the JVC HA-850? They are bass-heavy earphones indeed. Wider soundstage? Better highs?

JVC HA-850 - better A3 too demanding.

Are fx850 better regarding mids and bass than Sony A3?

​I have them! I like them a lot too. I was wondering how they compared to the IE Senns 800. I was discerning if they are worth the $800? I have the Senns HD 8000 with Cadis cables. They are very nice.

The A3 sound smaller than the Z5, the Z5 have this speaker or live-experience sound character, huge stage and so enveloping 3D-ness, so far loving my Z5s

you will need to use the upgrade cable from Sony as the stick A3 connector is shorter than the housing of the H3 mmcx

I have the Sony upgrade cable (and stock cable), but was looking to get a cheap one for traveling that wasn't black, can anyone recommend one of those cheaper ebay options that is still of decent quality?
