Product Description
Following the success of the Massdrop x NuForce EDC, named The Absolute Sound’s 2017 Earphone of the Year, we’re excited to announce its big brother: the EDC3. This new IEM swaps the original’s single dynamic driver for three balanced armatures per ear, and the lightweight housing is entirely translucent to showcase the drivers within Read More
Sounds good, braided cable is a nice touch. However, within a couple of months the left IEM stopped working completely. At first I thought it was because I switched cables but it no longer works with either cable and there is no way to buy just one IEM replacement. If you care about durability, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.
I was using the EDC1s as my daily drivers for a while. Once my cable died I picked up a pair of EDC3s for home, so that when the next cable would fall apart I'd have a spare.
The EDC3s are excellent, I like them more than my Sennheiser Momentum TW2s. They are a bit more power thirsty than the EDC1s, but they're still fine driven from a laptop, and more than make up for it in sound stage. They're much crisper than the EDC1s and just great overall.
My one gripe is the cable connection... They take a standard 0.78mm perfectly fine, but the default cables are shaped specifically for Nuforce, and fall apart pretty quickly... Definitely a fail, but other than that, they're great.
I was happy with these. Sound quality was good, nothing to complain about not the best I've had though. Lifetime was about a year of daily abuse at work which i was stoked on and prompted me to buy a 2nd pair when the first eventually died.
I’m somewhat torn to give these IEMs a 4 star or 5. I’ll try and explain why, first these are great in that they come With plenty tips and 2 types of cables. The first are twisted cable with no mic while the second seems a bit flimsy with a mic. I can’t speak on the quality of the mic since I have not tested it but in terms of the sound quality - they are great. The only downside at least for my ears are that they are uncomfortable for more than 2 hours. The main cable also twists around the earlobe but after basic use it starts to lose its shape. Overall they are recommended for only short spurts of listening.
