Nice video.. Depend of the SQ of product and SQ preferences of listener.. For me, SF is nothing compared to FH5.. Even FH7 or FH5s, i still love FH5 better.. It is neutral with bass bosted.. For Harman Tune, i choose A8 or Dusk or Aria..
Hi, I have the FiiO FH3 and I was thinking to buy this Starfield and I thought maybe its going to be a downgrade but now that I watch your video, id really like to have the Starfield to be part of my collection of IEMs. Greetings.
I was very not sure what iem to get and the look of them along with the positive reviews and being 110 was what sold me on it. I will get a better cable later whenever the stock cable breaks.
The Starfields are way easier on the wallet and aren't completely outclassed by the FH5s which cost more than double. The nicer kit that comes with the FH5 isn't nearly enough to justify spending $130-150 more. The FH5s are a hard rec unless your IEM spending budget is high, not to mention some newer $200-$250 sets probably outclass the FH5 given that the FH5s have been on the market for little over 2 years by now.
I find mmcx cable more secure & not tend to loose with time compared to 2 pin connector. If you are not musician or audio professional, FH3 is more fun to listen and good build. Also mmcx on Fiio.
hi i have a question im a metalhead/rock i listen mostly to rock and metal but i also listen to some other types of songs from time to time which of these two iems would be better for metal?
The FH5s didn’t come with a balanced cable? I have the original FH1 and they came with a single ended and balanced cable. Agree about the color coding. My Sennheiser IE 400 Pro and FH1 are coded, my Etymotic ER3 are not, a major drag. I’m considering the Starfield or Aria, but worry about the weight of the earpiece. And probably don’t really need another IEM. 😂
IEMs or in-ear-monitors are largely designed for professional music use. Think what a singer has in their ear while they're performing to hear themselves. Most of the budget goes into making them sound as good as possible, and not adding the complexity of a microphone inside them. There are tons of earbuds out there with mics installed, however, if that's what you want.
Amazing video, i'll go for the Starfield, thanks.
Nice review. Hope you compare the starfield and fh3 as well.
Nice video..

Tonality of Starfield is pretty dope!! Thanks for your video.

Greetings.
they are both great, they compliment each other.
Both have their own purposes ... *FH5* is for *FUN* and *STARFIELDS* is for *NEUTRALITY* and *VERSATILITY*
@@r4psudy393 Does the FH5 have a lot of bass? Sub or mid bass?
Just ordered the Blessing 2 Dusk a couple of days ago... 👌🤖🚬
How are you liking them?

How do the fiio fh3 compare to the star fields? I herd the fiio fh3 cable presents a microphonic sound when moving around!

Next : starfield vs kxxs
this is a really good forza horizon 5 review
Agreed.
Interesting.
But perhaps a fairer comparison would be Stanfield vs fh3. And fh5 vs moondrop blessings 2.
Be more realistic since better price matched
Hi..
Are there any iems with mic?
Any replacement cable with mic?
Why iems don't have mic for calls?
I'm really confused.
