How does the FH3 compare to Ikko OH10 in terms of bass? Which rumbles more? Btw, good review.

Thanks! The OH10 has better bass impact and rumble. The OH10 is a little slower and the rumble lasts longer.

Good Review! Regarding the balanced cable, IMO is important depending of the source, for example Im using a sony WM1A who is better using the 4.4 instead 3.5 so the balanced cable is a must in this case, also with my xdp-30r. btw nice dog

I agree. Out of a smsl sh-8, fiio m15 and lotoo paw s1, the s1 was the least noisy. I think these are just a little hiss sensitive via balanced. the hiss disappears when music is played. So it's not a problem other than with nothing playing.
