Today I got my hands on the MS3 HIFI Monitor Earphones from HIDISZ. These earphones come with two Balanced Armature drivers and a Dynamic driver, so they have a very energetic sound and they are very easy to be driven. let’s review them in detail.

Unboxing

The HIDISZ MS3 is packaged in a square black box with a gold Hi-Res logo on the front, and some specs on the back. Open the box you can see the earphones themselves, take them out and there are tips for different sonic tendencies and 2 pairs of filters, Balanced – Rose Gold filters already on the headphones. All together the HIDIZS MS3 offers a total of 9 pairs of tips and 3 pairs of filters. So, I don’t have any complaints when it comes to accessories. Inside the package there is a small box holding the user manual, and a leather pouch, inside the pouch we have the 4.4mm balanced cable that I chose to go with it. And truth be told, I really like this cable, not only because it is made of Multi-conductor OFC material, but also because of the “Shark Fin” design. The “Shark Fin” and the heat-shrink tube at the end of the cable minimize microphonics, so the HIDIZS MS3 will sound clean even when I am moving.

Design & wear

In terms of design, they are very cool, aluminium alloy with black surface, and texture design in the surface of the earphones, it looks a little bit like a feather or a flame. In the light, the unique surface looks full of dynamic sense. The HIDIZS MS3 has a very special curve on the part that touches the ear, so the earphones will be close to my ear when I have them on, and the in-ear part is relatively short, so it won’t press on my ear canal. Even if I use them for a long time, I don’t feel uncomfortable. So I would give HIDIZS MS3 a high score in design and comfort.

Sound Quality

Before we talk about the sound quality, I have to mention that I use MS3 with Balanced filter and Balanced ear tips. First of all, in terms of sound analytic, this is the least of my worries, they use two Knowles Balanced Armature Driver, so the MS3 has a high resolution sound. When I first have them on, I was very impressed with the energetic sound, which was very dynamic regardless of the frequency. The mid and high frequencies were very bright, and when listening to certain types of music, such as piano or violin, or women’s vocals, the MS3’s sound was so full of energy that I felt like my brain was being penetrated by the sound, so If you’re looking for good high frequency performance like me, then this is for you. In the mid-range vocal section, the MS3 is very expressive and the vocals are so close that you can clearly hear various details. Maybe due to the excellent mid-high frequency performance, the low frequency seems to be rather flat, not much surprise, when playing some percussion instruments, they can objectively play back the sound of the instrument. All in all, in terms of Sound Quality, the HIDIZS MS3 performs very well, the sound is full of energy and has a very good performance in the middle and high frequencies.

It is worth mentioning that the MS3 has very good Sound Field performance, which can clearly distinguish the position of different instruments in complex music. I even tested the headset in FPS games, and in VALORANT I could clearly sense the position of the enemy. A HIFI earphone also performs well in games is something really beyond my expectations.

When using HIDIZS MS3, I paired it with HIDISZ S9 PRO Balance DAC and HIDIZS AP80 PRO-X player, compared to mobile phones or PC’s integrated audio chips, the S9 PRO does a good job. The HIDIZS external decoder with DSD512 support really delivers a cleaner and mellower sound performance. Of course, if you just want to simply listen to some music, the MS3 has an impedance of only 18Ω, very easy to drive, just connecting to a mobile phone will also have a good sound performance.

Verdict

Overall, the HIDISZ MS3 is a pair of very characteristic earphones, they have a very good performance in the mid-high frequency, full of energy. They can show the characteristics of high-frequency instruments in detail, and respond fast to the mid-frequency. The earphones can present sweet and delicate vocals. At the same time, they have a good performance of the Sound Field, but it is clear that they are not suitable for all types of music, if you like vocals and bright high frequencies, they will surprise you.
