83 euros is a great price when here in the US they're all still $150+ no matter where I look. Currently have Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+ and they sound great but really wish I had OnePlus buds to go with my OnePlus phone
Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+ I’ve used multiple Shure IEMs, Ultimate Ears, Bose, Bang and Olufsen, Sennheiser… All have their place and purpose but Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+ is believe it or not my most often used daily
QCY N70 ou Capsule 3 Pro+, ambos são excelentes, os QCY com mais tecnologia embarcada e os Capsule com melhor som entre os dois, só não compra os Air5 Pro+, bateria terrível e som com qualidade inferior comparado aos dois anteriores.
Baseus Bowie MP1, QCY N70, Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+; any of them have excellent sound, the first two are more technologically advanced, but the Capsule stands out for its more balanced and excellent sound, close to that of the Soundpeats H3. - All headphones are in the $60-$70 range.
I like these but prefer the Capsule3 Pro+. The xMEMS high frequency drivers give my ears the shimmering crispy highs I need. More comfortable for me too. Either one is a great value. Our ears are all different.
I have and enjoy the Capsule3 Pro+. The xMEMS drivers work well with my particular hearing situation. I suspect the H3 may not be as comfortable for me so I will pass on them for now.
Capsule3 Pro+ have the xMEMS drivers which sets them apart for me due to the superior upper mids and highs. A bright sound with crisp highs is important to my ears but we all diifer in our taste.
The EQ settings work well. I boost the bass and find it balanced and effective. Some may find the highs too bright and EQ them down. I need it bright and shimmering. My hearing has been abused by too many concerts.
Chris - Thanks for this comprehensive piece. I've been using the [Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=67e80782c148d780JmltdHM9MTcyNDk3NjAwMCZpZ3VpZD0xYTcxMmJjNC1lMjRjLTYxMmQtMDRmMS0zYTdlZTNlNDYwNjQmaW5zaWQ9NTIyNQ&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=1a712bc4-e24c-612d-04f1-3a7ee3e46064&psq=Soundpeats+capsule+3+Pro%2b&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9zb3VuZHBlYXRzLmNvbS9wcm9kdWN0cy9jYXBzdWxlMy1wcm8tcGx1cy1haS1hZGFwdGl2ZS1hY3RpdmUtbm9pc2UtY2FuY2VsbGluZy13aXJlbGVzcy1lYXJidWRz&ntb=1) since they were released and the xMEMS drivers were a game changer for me. I use them to stream hi-res jazz and classical music and always use the LDAC setting. I'm satisfied with them and have had no issues other than the sometimes balky app. Are you able to make a comparison between them and the new 5 Pro+? I'm wondering if they would be a major upgrade for me.
The sound of the older Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+ please me the most. I pamper them and am looking for a fresh new pair.
My absolute favorite in my budget range for jazz and classical music are the Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+. Their xMEMS high frequency drivers do it for my ears. Don't know if they're still being produced though.

SOUNDPEATS Capsule 3 Pro all the way, the sound is magnificent
I am not an audiophile scientist. My guage for audio quality is how the music makes me feel while listening and the cost of entry for each level of feel. I also have 3 categories that I have alway used for audifonos EDC, listening , and production. IEMs don't fall into production range for me except for audition on every piece of gear I can while production is being mixed for me. I have only had the H3 for about 3 hours and am currently swapping between my c3p+ and the H3 and replaying parts of tracks over and over. My wife is worried about my mental health this morning. As with all IEMs the H3 needs to be EQ'd right away. For me LDAC enabled is a must or they can't keep up with the c3p+ at all, the adaptive hearing test in the Soundpeats app is worth running, and I ended up with the same Focal tips from my c3p+ (no idea if they fit in the case yet). The H3 is the clear winner for listening. I am impressed by the instrument separation and quality in general. Bass is just deep enough to give me the feels with hip-hop and house music. Rock and classical, while not my daily, are very enjoyable and again the impressive separation. Sepultura and Slayer get a triple 🤘 For me the H3 is not a multi-tool like the c3p+. My wife can hear the audio coming from H3, that is a big deal for me for public usage. LDAC must be enabled to get the audio quality and single device paring is also a big deal for me for an EDC IEM. I see myself using the H3 for listening at home use only (maybe airplanes too). The c3p+ will remain my EDC so I can still bump on public transportation privately, have dual device pairing for working, and ill definitely be able to wait until I am home to use the H3 to listen to new (to me) tracks. I hope this helps someone looking to choose an EDC or a pure audio IEM in the price range. I paid $111 (current exchange) for the H3 and I believe around $50 for cp3p+.
