TRI - I3 MK3 (3rd Generation)

Tri i3 mk3 for female vocals

Tri i3 MK3. Superb clarity and separation/imaging. However requires foam ear tips ideally. Kotori audio Zephyr for neutral tuning with a little warmth. Also try Final Audio E5000 for an old school iem with warmth and clarity.

Its tricky. I would tend to agree sub 500 pounds. Love the sennheiser ie300 single DD. Id pick this over any hybrid below 500. However tri i3 MK3 is a tribrid with a lovely timbre (I listen to classical). Also the Katori Audio Vampire is a single BA without any ba timbre, but it achieves this I suspect at the expense of frequency extension - warm lush mids with rolled of treble.

The i3 is better, and stands out from most tribrids because it uses a real 10mm full planar for the highs. The "planars" you see advertised in most modern hybrids are "micro-planars" which are in fact SPD-like packages that are meant to be drop-in alternatives to BAs. They are only called planars for marketing and because they sound somewhat like a planar, but they are different. IMO tribrids with proper full planars sound better but are usually very expensive and not common. TRI i3 mk3 is the one cheap model I know of. The only downside is don't go in seeing that beryllium DD and expect big slam bass like the OH10 or something from Xenns. It is tuned for snappy but not powerful neutral bass. It has an audiophile tuning that favors mids and highs. If you can get behind that they have the best highs imo of anything until hybrids with ESTs. https://preview.redd.it/5unfc7sebvif1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=1b94f578c0594d06c206c60ff31975a30f76f7a7

This. A sleeper since this IEM came out over a year ago but I like it better than Odyssey and Tea Pro. There are many special things about this IEM, the only downside is the size. If you can't handle large shells and large nozzles you're gonna have to at least tip roll a bunch. For me with very small TWS tips that were a bitch to get on they feel very comfortable and the seal is great. Another great alternative is Volume S. Both have this feeling of being "audiophile basshead", meaning they have basshead driver qualities but more restrained tuning that has more mid-bass vs lots of modern sets which focus on sub-bass, and the level is overall lower but the bassy quality is still there.

Ziigaat Odyssey if you want something neutral with bass boost (the bass really kick in ngl I love that), Performace 5 if you want warm tuning, Kbear Tri I3 Mark 3 if you want something bright but not harsh smooth and great for vocal.

Moondrop concerto without doubt, great tuning. Also tri i3 mk3 good underrated iem, sadly mine broke.

Right now it's probably the TRI i3 mk3. Edit: I totally forgot that the Ziigaat Estrella was under $300 so it's definitely up there as well.

If you have sensitive ears then I'd recommend tri i3 mk3. Great all rounder, don't get fooled by the graphs of it because it's enough bass. Premium hardware for that price

The Tri I3 Mk3 is an insanely technical set for the price while not sacrificing tonality, found the best tip pairing for it is Spinfit W1s. I can provide comparisons if you like since I tried most of the new stuff.

So I have owned the s12, currently own MP145 & MP143, S12 is super duper bright and might be confused for being overly technical but I found it can be overly fatiguing and the bass response does not even compare. Meanwhile mP145, you can get it much bassier on the red nozzle but the quality of the bass is not quite as weighty and objectively can't compete as the Tri uses a Dynamic driver for the bass despite measuring bass light and the treble on 145 can come across metallic and tinny whereas it's super smooth on the Tri i3 MK3, MP143 on the other hand is the closest in terms of cohesiveness with solid bass response, not as fatiguing upper treble as 145 and quite solid, and the nozzle options are solid too. I would say the Tri i3 takes the cake with treble and overall tonality, amazing accessories and tips but the mp143 does offer 3 different sound profiles with the nozzle system despite having worse accessories.

Un fone na mesma faixa de preço que o S12 pro que eu tenho aqui e acho uma delícia de fone para música e brutal para jogos é o I3 MK3, ele não é difícil de empurrar, o Leonardo do MTH fez uma análise dele, talvez te agrade. Eu gostei muito dele, recomendo.

Eu não achei ele agressivo não, achei ele bem detalhado mas sem ser agressivo. E olha que eu tenho os ouvidos até um pouco chatos pra agudos...

Love the i3 mk3, are you using the included stock tips?

Seeing reactions around Meteor for being tamed to less quantity, I sort of can imagine what pass through manufacturer's mind... Anyway, It is a clear patter to me, I love my Tri I3 MK3, but street noise kills it, it is wonderful at night, in total silence, though.

Cadenza 4 & tri i3 mk3 graph very closely, having a hard time picking one to purchase, have the origin and It's very warm to me, the sub bass colours the mix. Would you recommened these two? if you could quickly compare if you have listened, fast reponse would be appreciated, thanks

I got the i3s thank you! but question, when you tap them with your finger can you hear movement, like something is hitting the shell (on both) x\_x

Godly tuning, copy+pasted it to my tri i3 mk3, elevated the iem to another level. Still deciding on getting either this or the apevoix grit.
