FiiO FH3 should be on this list

fiio fh3 > ie600 it’s so good i cried a little 😭

I. Am in the same situation as yours. FH3 and Ibasso it00 owner. Looking to upgrade, came to finalists 2. Martilo and Davinci. Deuce is more on the sub bass side but have to compromise with mids as I judge. So one time big purchase for basshead I will be selecting between these 2. Had an eye on tea pro. But I guess I am addicted to rumbling bass and natural mids.

I currently own the FH3, which was my first IEM bought around 3 years ago. Recently gotten back into this hobby with Simgot EW300 and Letshuoer S08 in my collection. So I can only give you my experience with these 3 To me the FH3 sounds neutral-ish with slight bass boost. It can rumble sure, but you need a really good seal to notice them. Mid bass is slightly lacking the thump. Vocals are fairly forward and balanced. Treble is toned down making it not that sparkly. For accessories it comes packed with eartips so you can find your ideal fit. The pouch is decent and cable is nice but I wished it had a 4.4 option because when I swapped them to one, I can hear the details slightly better and soundstage opens up a little. One thing that stood out is definitely the fit. They are really comfortable! Passive noise isolation isn't as great (but so as the other two). Not to say the EW300 and S08 isn't comfortable, but I can listen with FH3 for a longer period without soreing my ear canals. Probably because they have smaller nozzle? Compare to my other two IEMs. To me EW300 and S08 sounds wayyy better. EW300 has better clarity and sounds more exciting. Some sibilance and female vocals can be a bit shouty (adding a foam to the silver nozzle really helps with the issue). S08 sounds warmer, treble is laid back but since the detail retrieval is so good I can still hear micro details unlike FH3 (had to really focus to hear them) All these are bassy according to many reviews, though not to basshead level. But I definitely prefer the slam on the newer models. TLDR: The newer models sounds "clearer" and has better bass Hope this helps! ☺️

God I hated that IEM. It's so damn bright. I literally reviewed it yesterday. Then again, you may be right in that is the best Fiio has to offer. I love that little pouch that comes with the FH3. It's adorable.

Fiio FH3 is my go to for any bass heavy music. They have amazing deep/mid bass extension that does not not bleed into the mids, but it thumps. Vocals are crystal clear, and the treble is sparkly without being fatiguing. I think they run around $100, but you can go on eBay and purchase them for around $70. I would consider them the funnest IEMs I own.

FiiO FH3 will forever be my favourite entry-level set (sentimental). Moondrop Variations is my comfort set (also favourite). UM Mest II is my endgame (least used).
