I have the FD5 and was ready to sell them, was really unimpressed, but I tried spinfit cp100 (m) on the thin nozzles that was much documented , even worse ! , then I discovered that if I pulled them out my ear slightly with the spinfits then bass really improved but obviously with poor fit so I chopped of 2mm from the stem of the tips so i could get the fit back , the iem stems now sitting deeper in the tip. OMG WOW what a difference compared to standard supplied tips in wide nozzles, really night and day difference, there now a keeper.

Loving your reviews. Your Library fits mine perfectly, so I now watch your shit anytime I'm thinking about making my purchases. I'm still very new to IEM's, and have a few now, that I swap through. Always seem to come back to my DQ6. I'll stay monogamist to it until I decide It's time for something new :) Was looking at this FD3 and was considering it, but I think I'll go back and look at some of your other reviews for Single dynamic. Something Beryllium coated.....
I really like this set. More than the IT01x. The tuning and air venting is spot on. I think the “acoustic prism” is just a fancy term for a wave guide. It probably helps makes the DLC sound less like other entry level carbon drivers, hence it sounds closer to the FD5 beryllium driver.
Hi BGGAR, I need your recommendation out of following choices. I already own L3 and T2 Plus. 1. Fiio - Fd3 2. Shuoer - tape pro 3. Moondrop - aria Or 4. BQEYZ - Summer
Not only I learnt good music, but also what I was looking for. I am quite new to the IEM world, so some of the words still sound cryptic, but grateful and quite happy with the information I could gather. Can I ask, how does one find such music library? Thank you =)
you should try the etymotic er2xr's. I feel like these, the fd3s and the arias might be the goat recs under 100$ (add in mele's possibly if you're feeling freaky😉). would love to see comparisons of these.
Between the FD3 and the TRI Starseas, which one do you think its the better of the 2 assuming they're within $10 range of each other? (Currently using Fiio FH1s and KZ DQ6, listening mostly to OSTs and songs with female vocals)
Thank you very much for the review. I am looking for iems for indoor listening, especially for classical music, orchestra and soundtracks (Zimmer and alike). Which would be the recommended buy? Budget wise I’m after good value and be happy to stay within 250. Thanks for any advice!

Great review and channel but seems like another over priced single DD IEM. $40 more and you get the Tin Hifi P1 which with a good amp will completely obliterate these in about every way, except for bass boom...but the planar slam will be far far far more accurate and fast. Tip roll and the P1 is still endgame for many. Around the same price are the shuoer tape pros, which will have the boom and far more detail than any single DD can produce...not P1 levels though
@@Laleeee100 provided your using tips that fit properly, then your not giving them enough power, or pairing them right. The bass is actually quite good if you know what your doing.

Really looking forward for a comparison between the two, as both are in the same price bracket
@@BadGuyGoodAudioReviews which tips on the FH3?
you should try the etymotic er2xr's. I feel like these, the fd3s and the arias might be the goat recs under 100$ (add in mele's possibly if you're feeling freaky😉). would love to see comparisons of these.

If you like DQ6 a lot the FD3 would probably be better. Starsea are a bit tame compared to DQ6 and FD3

Which of the two included sound tubes did you use for this review? The 'balanced sound' (black) or the 'detailed treble' (red)?
Thanks.
Stock out of box so "balanced sound"
Great Review! One question: FD3 or Spring 2?
FD3
Great review, between the fh3 and the fd3, which one has better bass?
I think FD3. I am a fan of Beryllium but in this case this DLC driver is better than Berry ones FiiO uses

Could be. Maybe they are going that way with the DD series
Isn't it the opposite most of the time? The pricier stuff came 1st as a flagship, and they release the cheaper ones later for people to try
@@MrB10N1CLE I get your point, but then I wonder why don't they reduce the price of the higher priced sets?

@@BadGuyGoodAudioReviews thank you for the reply. so not much of an upgrade coz i have fh3 already
FD3 or Starfield?
I'd have to give em a good A/B. Starfield has a thinness in the mids. Lack noteweight. Like the replay but it's not an all around set for my library.
weren't u planning to rewiew the lcd x?
