Product Description

The Magaosi X3 is the latest in the brand’s streak of affordable, high-quality multi-driver IEMs. The three balanced-armature drivers deliver a smooth sound, while the ergonomic clear housing is complete with a stylish carbon-fiber-like faceplate reminiscent of what you’d find on higher-end custom IEMs Read More

I own a pair of these (not purchased through massdrop). Really like them. Compared to other ba earphones I own, they have the most honest treble response. They aren't artificially bright. Cymbals sound like cymbals really sound, not cymbals mic'ed an inch from where you strike it. As a result, the soundstage isn't enormous, but it's still really good. The texture of the bass is great. I find myself grabbing these more often than my other IEMs (IMR R1, Hifi Boy OS3, TFZ Secret Garden), partly because they fit well and isolate very well, but mostly because the sound signature works for me.

Not really, no. The EQ does it really solid though.

there's a couple of reviews and comparisons here, looks like they compare favorably to the EDC3 and their own K5.

Every set of in-ear headphones on MD seems to be labeled "IEM", but are they really monitors? Are they for audio engineering purposes with a flat response? Because with marketing crap like "smooth-sounding iem" and "relaxing bass, intimate midrange, and controlled treble" you lose all credibility with sound experts.

SanderSkjegstadYou seem to be confusing studio monitors with IEM's because the word "monitor" is included in "In-Ear Monitor." IEM's were originally custom- made designed for stage monitoring for musicians, and then branched out into universal designs that were made for music listening. A lot of them can serve both functions, but the the purpose was never studio monitoring and a perfect flat response.

cheguevaroYes! That's very true, they were for stage monitoring, so I desperately wish that we could stop calling all in-ear headphones "IEMs". Just call them in-ear headphones, they're not built for monitoring. If you have to abbreviate it, call them IEHs or IEHPs.
