Final E3000C

As seen in my previous review (of the Flares Audio Jet 2), these too are an excellent set. But, this pair seem to dig way deeper into the music. More defined, a little more bass with the sub base almost there. These are a little more hard to drive with my iPhone XR, but I believe using an amp will contribute to more excellent sound. Again these are Not for bass heads but have enough to be convincing and what’s there is real, plus they eq nicely if you need more.... Nearly a flat frequency response, but the best thing is that with the Final Audio “sound”, they are so easy to listen to. These are the most comfortable iem’ I have tried and that I have owned (so far). The drive unit is of great quality and sturdy. The cables are another story. The light weight of the entire assembly kinda scares me, but being a Japanese product, I’m not too concerned, but I am using the utmost care in handling them. The cable is Not microphonic and even though super slim is a perfect match sound wise and quality. Cable size (thickness) can be misleading. The quality of the wires themselves is the question and these are of a high quality. I say thus as I currently have a 47 Laboratory 4733 and connect my speakers with the 47 Laboratory.40mm Barr wire cables. They are excellent in their sound representation. These too will benefit from some “run-in” as all my sets have been through at least 35-50 hours. The sound does improve (at least to me) some may disagree and that is ok. The point is they sound wonderful and so comfortable I can (and have) listened to them all day. Of you want even better sound, get the e3000 Without the microphone, as the less signal is interfered with , the better. The mic works well and no complaints there. The cable is as quiet as you will find I just about any price range. I have two problems: 1: is that I just bought a pair of Periodic Audio be’ and have about 150 hours on them (with about 150 more to go)and they keep getting better and better. And 2: I am tempted to get the E4000’s as I love this sound and the comfort alone is a incredible Plus, but the $ is what’s putting this on hold 😞 . My go to iem’ are these, due to the comfort and pleasing/enjoyable sound signature. But I see real soon they’ll be replaced by the be’. The value of the Final Audio e3000c is exceptional, and these are highly recommended. You won’t be disappointed... remember, be easy with these, I’ve had No issues, I’m just a little bit nervous, probably for nothing...

Unboxing - Packaging is a little sparse, but quality of the included accessories is good. There are five different sizes of ear tips (which are included on much higher IEMs and what I use for all of mine. These were a gift for my girlfriend.), comfortable ear hooks for the cable to be worn over the ear, a small carrying pouch, and a warranty card/product information pamphlet. I would've liked to see a semi-hard case but, all in all not bad for the price. Build - Housing is stainless steel, and smaller than expected. They're really quite light, but seem sturdy due to the stainless steel frame. The only weak point is the cable. It feels very flimsy, and is part of why I wish there was a better case included. You can pick up a set of three for under 10 bucks though, which is what I did for my accessories, and had one left over for these. Fit - Final's E-Series tips are the best silicone tips I've used, and, combined with their light weight, it's easy to forget you're wearing these. It's almost disconcerting. Almost... Sound quality - Warm, bassy tuning, executed well for the price. I wouldn't recommend them for acoustic stuff but for the right genre they work well. I used an EQ to bring up the treble a touch and left the bass the same and my girlfriend loves it. My description will obviously be without EQ though. Bass - A little loose, but with good texture for the price. Slight bleed into the mids but not nearly as much as what I was expecting with this type of tuning. Mids - Good for the price point and tuning, but nothing outstanding. In this price range, I'd recommend the Tin T2 by a landslide for more mid-centric genres but these do well. My only gripe is female vocals, which just sound a little thin behind the warm bass. Treble - Laid back and smooth. Not a ton of detail but ample enough they aren't totally lost under the bass. Imaging and separation - Pretty decebt soundstage for what they are. Not a ton of depth, but they do well left to right. They can get congested due to the loose bass response, but in genres like EDM and hip hop, they do pretty well. Overall - These are good headphones for those looking for a respectable, bass-leaning tuning at the price point. For a more neutral experience in general, I'd look at the Tin T2 but, for the bass lover in your life, these are a great little addition for the price.

I absolutely fell in love with these earbuds! The sound quality was absolutely amazing and they are very light and small, they fit absolutely perfect in my small ears as well. I found them through a site that said they could be alternatives to sleep buds, which worked just fine, they're small enough that they dont dig into my ears. I used them just about every day to listen to music and when gaming, i have a large collection of cds and lots of flac quality albums on my phone. The open back probably helps to add to the quality of the audio but it of course hinders bass, which is just fine. Unfortunately they just stopped working today. I hadn't touched them in a week and the left earbud went totally silent. It's really unfortunate because these are not cheap! They're such good quality, especially the earbuds themselves being metal. They didn't even last a whole year. I'll be looking elsewhere to see if there are any high quality buds that hopefully won't just stop working one day...

These sounded great when they worked, but after about a year of light use, they're no longer working properly - for the most part, either one channel is out, or there is no sound at all. It seems like the wires near the jack are not secure. The links on Final's website (snext-final.com) to any customer care - even user registration - are dead links, so I don't know how to contact the company. If you do get these headphones, I recommend getting the protection plan.

These are the first iem i have tried that don't hurt my ears. I apparently have small ear canals because iem tips rarely fit in. Anyways they're pretty comfortable and don't seem to fall out. The small swivel i think does make a difference. The sound is pretty darn neutral. In a good way. Nothing is really emphasized so things sound natural. I was listening to some songs on tidal and they were ok, but then i started watching Star wars rebels on my phone and that's where these things surprised me. The sound design in that show is really helped by these headphones. Things just sound good. The highs roll off just about perfectly. I've been using the Fidelio x2hr lately, but wanted a little different sound and more portable. The final are awesome. The sound signature honestly might be my new favorite. I'm definitely interested in more from final. Will probably look into the higher end things at some point, but these are probably worth the money. They were for me. As long as you aren't looking for really over the top bass, give these a try. The sound stage is better than i had expected for 60$ headphones. My first pair was damaged in transit and returned without being delivered. Not happy about that, but the pair i finally got is great. They look simple but high quality. They don't really stick far out of your ears.

I like these. They offer good sound where I can hear the separation of instruments and vocals better than I could with the other bluetooth earbuds I have (soundcore liberty 4). I’m no audiophile but considering this is half the price of those and sounds more refined I think the value is there. My only gripe so far is due to the small size and round shape it is hard to sort of twist it in to my ear and get a comfortable seal. Instead I have to forcefully push it in which still creates a seal but less comfortably than other designs. Will update this review if they fail early but a couple days in and I love them. Edit: might be my own fault but I think I had them about 8 or 9 months before the left channel faded slowly until it went completely out. I did tend to leave them resting on the carpet below my desk (cable is on the longer side) and I might've ran over it with my office chair at one point (although I have pretty soft carpet below). The wire is also super thin too so if I did do that then damage is basically gauranteed.

I’ve only woken them 3 times because they rub my ears. However, I thought I’d try one more time and the sound was crackling and fuzzy. Too late to return them, but disappointed in them.

These earbuds sound great, especially for the money. Their lightweight design make these probably the most comfortable earbuds I’ve ever owned and I can wear the for hours with no issue, something I can’t say for almost any other earbud. Their semi open design strikes a good balance between isolation and soundstage, allowing people to still get your attention. Their sound is also very balanced, clean bass, rich mids, and smooth treble. They lack a little clarity in the highest frequencies (noticeable in some cymbal crashes) but totally acceptable to my ears. If you want big thumping bass, you should look elsewhere or try equalizing. They don’t seem to be very durable, though I haven’t had any issues. Treat them well and they will treat you just as nicely. I can’t speak highly enough to these earbuds. If you’re looking for balanced sound and earbuds you can wear all day, look no further.

Se oye todo muy natural a alto nivel. Calidad precio inmejorable para amantes de un sonido natural.

The price keeps on increasing day by day and its value is not worth it. Its a headphone just fine for those who love music. Nothing much special for the price. you can get better headphones for the price. I brought it for half the price nine months before. but now the left earpiece is not working. So what i can say soundwise its just fine for an entry-level audiophile but the quality is just average.

Great quality!

Impressive sound

These headphones are horrible. They’re uncomfortable have no bass, there’s no noise cancellation at all. It sticks out of my ear and it doesn’t stay in place because the cylinder part of it is too thin and the cable looks extremely cheap and likely to break. Extremely saddened to waste my money.
