Love the concept on the drivers, lets see the tuning. But ugly as hell. Price?

I think they have 2 new IEM and the other might be the flagship?
Bet this is $4000 or more.

What shell types have you tried? The typical MX500 shell usually works with a lot of people.

(check this post for info on the bud shells: Earbuds Round-Up | Page 3418 | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org)

Not sure. Shozy fit me decent.

This guy makes cool looking shit

Those arent MX500 shells. Shozy from what I know uses a shell called ā€œPKā€. Which is different from MX500.

If you are interested I say you should get these:

Yincrow X6
Faaeal iris 2.0

K“s LBBS (Bell-LBS)
Smabat M2S Pro

Yincrow RW-2000
Moondrop Chaconne

Can anyone help me out with my purchase?I’m looking for an upgrade over BL03, right now only these IEMs are available in my region

Fiio FH3
Moondrop Aria/KXXS
KBear Believe ( only 2-3 sets left)
Thieaudio L2,L3,L4,L5
Ikko OH10
TRI Starsea
Tanchjim Hana (within 2-3 months)

I can get any one single IEM, my preference is towards warm type sound signature like BL03 coz it helps alot in long term listening sessions,…and m looking for tonality,imaging better than 03.

Thank you for reading!!

Fiio FH3 - tried the FH5, didn’t like the bass bloom. Not sure about FH3, but if it’s similar at all, then I personally wouldn’t recommend for my taste.

Moondrop Aria - tried it and feel it plays entire libraries very well. Bright and balanced. Cheap but great clarity/resolution for the price. Recommended for overall good listening.

KBear - haven’t tried or know much

ThieAudio L2, etc. - Tried the L2, but not the others. The L2 is a laid back, warmer sound. I would recommend if you’re into warmer laid back stuff; though, it does have a good balance with some bright spots to give it some nice forwardness. I prefer the Aria personally though.

Ikko OH10 - no experience or knowledge

TRI Starsea - Would like to try it, heard good things, but haven’t had the chance.

Tanhjim Hana - Haven’t tried it or know enough to say.

Seeing as how you say your preference is towards warm, you may like the L2. But, with so many on that list I can’t speak to directly, I wouldn’t know if something is better for you.

What do you think of believe over fh3?

Kbear believe are still on the market somewhere ?! :scream:

These were so well regarded I wanted to buy a set, but couldn’t find any with usual sellers (in EU or on aliExpress). It’s only my opinion, but if Believe are available somewhere to you, you should jump on it, just for the sake of rarity.
