You pretty much have everything and i am pretty sure you are not missing out on something enjoy these and explore them but if you really looking for something go for a endgame (hella expensive ones) they might give you the kick which you missing rn or if you have budget constraints go for the high-end mid range (i really like the finalA6000)
My first iems were the final audio a5000 & was the best decision I ever made now I use the final audio a6000 with a few other iems
Final A series iems are some of the most comfortable iems out in the market rn & the cable is thin so there’s no issues
Honestly ngl I’ve owned the a5000 & when I first bought the a6000 I was like eh it’s alright, nothing special just a bit better but boy was a wrong these are my fav iems of all time, the a6000 like if I could leave this hobby today with just one pair I’d take the a6000
The a6000 or final A series iems in general are very comfortable they fit flush against the ear so they actually don’t stick out so I’ve got no worries of it falling out, also the cable is actually pretty thin so it stays in place
I can’t lie that’s insane for 2 months. I remember buying the final a5000 & I used it for a year & a half before I even considered buying another iem & that was only cause I wanted to upgrade to the final a6000 😂
Final audio a6000, the vocals sound so lifelike it’s almost to the point where it’s boring & the music sounds “normal” but that’s also a good thing. The soundstage especially width & height is some of the widest I’ve heard in an iem but in a way that doesn’t sound artificial
I’ve been using the final audio a6000 for 2 years now which is my favourite IEM of ALL TIME! & I’ve been largely very happy. The final audio a6000 cost $479usd while the tea pro se is $449usd. I daily the Simgot Super Mix 4 as well & as much as I loved the super mix 4 I decided to look for something better & I landed on the tea pro se & couldn’t be happier. I’ll still keep the super mix 4 as a daily pair as it’s cheaper & I still think the super mix 4 is one of the most technical iems in its price point.
The a6000 is very detailed to the point where the music feels like a sheet of glass if that makes sense, it’s pretty transparent but it’s not harsh or sibilant & the vocals have this lifelike quality to them
It’s bright but it’s not sibilant which is great although the a6000 is also very bright, seems like I have a thing for bright iems
Probably the Simgot super mix 4 or the final audio a6000, I wasn’t really surprised by the final audio pair because final knows how to tune an iem but over time it has became my favourite iem of all time
I've got the A6000 and wear the cable around the ear, never bothered installing the hook, never felt like I needed it. They sit quite neatly and comfortably I'd say.
When I first tried them they seemed a bit tinny and harsh/shrill, I was really struggling with the very detailed highs and thought they were going to give me headaches. I think either the tips weren't great for my ears or I just needed to get used to them, because now with a different set of tips and after some time, I now just love the detail, and the bass is decent as well. They don't sound quite as "physical" as I perceive my Kiwi Ears Quintet (which are the other ones I listen to a lot; I don't have the language to describe what I mean exactly - with the Quintet I almost feel like the sound is coming from some very heavy object sitting behind me; the A6000s feel more like the sound is floating, which isn't a bad thing necessarily, just a different quality to it). I think you do hear more detail with the A6000s. I also love how small and light they are for something that sounds this good.
I was looking for IEMs with wide soundstage - I think the only thing I don't normally like about headphones/IEMs vs speakers is that feeling that the sound comes from like one spot inside my head. So when I read that some IEMs are better in that sense, I looked for that. Final A4000 and A5000 were said to have great soundstage, so I was looking at Final but by the time I pulled the trigger, they'd already released the A6000 so I went for that. The Quintet as well have what one reviewer said was a "holographic soundstage", and to be honest sometimes it sounds like different notes of the same instrument come from a slightly different place, they're really fun to listen to.
Final audio makes pretty sick iem for this purpose have a look at their VR Series or A series VR series doesn't have removable cable but A does have removable cables just make sure
Check out Final Audio stuff A Series or VR Series they are pretty sick for fps gaming where you can pin out exact location of foot steps
