The C3 are visually almost indistinguishable from C6. How do I know which is which? C3 has a silver plug, C6 has a golden plug. That's it. But the sound is very different. The old C6 is flatter and has impressive mids, for the price. But the C3 are typical V-shaped, with recessed mids and a lot less detail and crispness in the highs. Very sad.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Comfort & FitI had some issues keeping these earphones inside with a good seal for an extended time with the included tips because the profile of these earphones is quite short. I had to use tips from other earphones instead, and I advice you to do so as well. Maybe some nice foam tips can do a better job. Lows / BassA lot of sub-bass and mid-bass bloat cause the sound to be very muddy. Not pleasant and even headache-inducing on higher volume. Mids / VocalsThe mids are a bit fat and lack the delicacy of C6's mids, but overall similar. Because of the huge difference between the mids/highs and the lows, the mids are always pushed behind the thunderous bass. Highs / TrebleSomewhat similar to C6's treble, but less bright and less detailed. More recesseed and quieter than C6's highs. Frequency Response![]() Published on 2018-01-09 17:14:10 (GMT)
