šŸ”¶ FiiO FH3 2BA 1DD

You are frankly being a bit rude. Specially to a member whose sentence you misunderstood. Doubling down on what you wrote is not the right thing to do when heā€™s been so cordial to you. Not to mention how passive aggressive you like to be. Reminds me of a member called papa emeritus. He was rude but at least he decided to leave when he couldnā€™t take the criticism instead of doubling down more and more

Oh really? Who resorted to name calling when they didnā€™t like something I said?

I did not misunderstand his sentenceā€¦

He obviously meant what he said when he posted that +25db bass shelf graph. I was going to give him alternatives to the Sundara that I prefer (since I own a Sundara myself) but I wonā€™t bother.

Are you suggesting I leave the community then? Maybe an admin should ban me since I donā€™t know when to stop.

A lot of this has looked like arguing for the sake of arguing. Letā€™s everyone take a break for a few, please.

This is what he wrote directly under the eq graph he showed. Very directly mentioning that he does not do this type of EQ but he is impressed that

Itā€™s called passive vs active aggression
He responded more aggressively, actively to you after you responded very passively aggressive to him. If there was a scientific way to measure how much of a douchebag someone is, no doubt you would beat him. Just because you mask your aggressive and rude tendencies dosent mean that they arenā€™t evident to everyone reading the thread.

I suggested no such thing, itā€™s up to you. You are just as welcome as I am to be in this community. We try to maintain a positive attitude and be nice to each. Whether you want to keep it that why too by playing nice or by leaving its up to you

Is it possible I may come off this way to you, but my actual intentions are nothing of the sort? I enjoy this hobby and enjoy discussing it with likeminded individuals, especially @Rikudou_Goku. Iā€™ve never come here looking for a fight. I apologize if I come off with ā€œaggressive and rude tendenciesā€ but that is not, and never has been my intent.

Although, I will obviously defend myself if someone attacks me anywhere.

I guess Iā€™m wrong,

Is anyone paring their FH3 with a BTR3K? Iā€™m pondering with buying the latter, my only worry is that some BTR3K reviews mention audible hiss when combined with sensitive IEMs. Can someone provide feedback on this paring (balanced and/or single-ended)?

just get the btr5, noticeably better performance.

Thanks. I wouldnā€™t mind the additional cost, but I donā€™t think the FH3 makes use of the additional power, I donā€™t believe in the DAC chip making an audible difference (to me), and Iā€™d quite strongly prefer the smaller size (and weight) of the BTR3K. My alternative idea would be the Shanling UP4, which should be somewhere in between the FiiOs (not sure Iā€™d like the single-button control though).

I think the BTR3K would be just fine for me, except if it annoys me with hiss.

No, dacs dont make any difference to me either.

But the BTR5 has a lot more output power from the amp than the BTR3K. Thats why you should go for the BTR5 instead and sources are usually something you use for a long time.

The Fh3 also barely improves from quality dac/amp. I thought itā€™s ceiling kinda hit in my galaxy phone anyways. So if you donā€™t want to future proof your amp for something else te btrk should b good

I dont use my phone for music anymore so cant really comment on it. Although I am using an LG G7 so thats probably not a fair generalization of smartphone dac/amp performance.

Lg phones have a nice dac, decent amp
Honestly itā€™s just IMO fh3 dosent change/improve much with different source gear. My galaxy sounded great. Of course this is just my experience, others might differ

yeah I know. Thats why I cant really compare my own experience with my phone to others.
