AKG K3003 and Shure SE846

 AKG K3003 three-way HIFI headphones

AKG headphones are famous but more famous than AKG headphones, they are AKG microphones. Whether it is a large diaphragm condenser microphone for recording or an electret microphone for the conference, AKG has an important market share. However, what we want to recommend here is the AKG product line, which is not so important, but it has won countless acclaimed earphones AKG K3003.

Speaking of this earplug is also quite legendary. When the K3003 was first launched, it was sold in Austria, so the price was over 10,000. Headphone products with such a large change in the price of the goods are very rare, and the enthusiasts who used to purchase this product have been rushing to express their not only the loss but also the second-hand is very difficult to appear in the hands of very angry and so on. The diving of this earplug price is also the reason we recommend it. After large diving, this earplug has become a very cost-effective product.

The K3003 can’t be worn after the winding, so despite its fascinating appearance, it can’t be worn very well, which also makes it more serious.

K3003’s accessories are very rich, in addition to different sizes of silicone sleeves, there are three different apertures of the filter to adjust the tri-band distribution, but even with the high-frequency weakened filter, the high frequency of the K3003 is still relatively bright.

Sound quality

The K3003 uses only one moving coil unit and two moving iron units, but the sound it emits has no connection defects. The sound of the K3003 is extremely accurate, which makes it possible to reproduce classical music without any hindrance. But it is precise because its voice is extremely accurate, and the flaws in some low-quality recordings will be invisible in front of it.

In general, although the K3003 can be paired with a mobile phone, it is more recommended to match the front end with a certain quality, which will have a better effect.

 Shure SE846 In-Ear Headphones

Shure is a well-known microphone manufacturer in the United States, and its first product sm58 is regarded as a dynamic microphone artifact by countless recording practitioners and small singers. Shure entered the earphone market by chance. A live sound engineer named Jerry Harvey invented an in-ear listening device with a crossover structure, but the manual could not be mass-produced, so he found Shure and Westone. The company, I hope they will jointly produce this product for themselves. The prototype earplugs were E5, and then Shure produced E5 and produced E5C on the basis of this, which is the famous fifth in the rivers and lakes.

Although the E5C opened up the situation in China’s high-end earphone market, Shure’s follow-up development is not outstanding. It did not launch the new earplug products but continued to maintain the product line, which directly led to the later generation of Westone and UE. Later, although Shure launched the SE530/SE535, it is already in a backward position. So Shure was so painful. After several years of crouching, she finally launched the SE846. Although it is also a 4-unit, its sound is not the same as that of Westone and UE900.

structure

From the structural point of view, although the SE846 main body design is not much different from the general rear-wound earphones, on the more important sound pipes, Shure abandoned the previous design but used a replaceable catheter design to make consumption. It is possible to change the tri-band distribution by using conduits of different materials.

Sound quality

From the sound quality point of view, after the unsuccessful attempts of SE530 and 535, the overall sound style of SE846 has returned to the warm and mellow American mellow style of E5C. The enthusiasm of the intermediate frequency is the most appealing but yet It is the hardest to do. The sound quality of the SE846 makes it a product that cannot be surpassed in short-term earplugs.
