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 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).
The only FiiO basshead set I can think of is FHE Eclipse but it's not really basshead in the modern meta since it as no midbass tuck, so it's boosted across the entirety of the bass. If that is your style I would also recommend the QoA Adonis New. If you like tucked, sub-bass prominent basshead style the others like Dunu ITO would suit better.
I've had them for a few months and they are my favorite IEMs for AAA video games. They do not collapse in the face of chaos and resolve all frequencies very well. They cost me €150 and now they are for €100. They are a bargain.
Yo siempre recomiendo un dongle dac, me gusta escuchar "fuerte" el sonido pero que no altere o distorsione el sonido. Tengo el Fiio KA11 (entre otros muchos dac/amp) y para jugar (que es para lo que me interesan los IEMs) serían muy buena opcion los Simgot EW300, Fiio FH3 o Truthear x Crinacle Zero Red. Todos dentro de tu presupuesto. Cada uno de ellos viene bien completo de accesorios, el Simgot el que más (65€) Personalmente, buscaría un Fiio BTR13 por su polivalencia (modos pc, BT y teléfono) y porque puedes subirle la ganancia manualmente desde el menú y su pantalla.
Fiio FH3 es mi IEM favorito para juegos en PC, pero los otros dos no estan muy lejos en cuanto a disfrute.
