Marshall Mode vs MoonDrop Aria

I got the Marshall. Charge 5 being mono sounds too flat compared to Marshall. With Marshall I can hear the sounds that are missing with charge 5.

This time the right channel made a soft pop. Now the earphone that I do have barely gets to a listenable level at full volume on my phone and has the same tinny-ness as the left. The quality control of these units is awful and the process of getting anything about it fixed at all is more of a hastle and wait than I am willing to go through again (keep in mind it's been three months since I've recieved the headphones and not only are neither working properly anymore, but half of that time was spent with only one earphone anyway). Update: The company happily and swiftly issued a refund at request after a breif explanation, so it is at least easy to get refunds/replacements, and for that I give them credit

Sound: - "S" sounds, cymbals, and high drum beats have an annoying hiss, and bass is a little fuzzy and under-powered (this is not a product for bass lovers.) I am, however, hearing details in my music that I had no idea were there before - for $30, I can't complain. Fit: - There are four sets of tips instead of the usual three, which is nice, and they're designed for comfort, not appearance, which is nice too. If you have really small ears the odd asymmetrical drum shape might get uncomfortable after a while, but they happen to fit perfectly in my slightly smaller than average ears

If you are going to find any decent in-ear/earbuds, it's worth to give this a try blindly if you don't know anything at all, I bet you won't regret about it. The only one small thing that maybe different from one to another, is that the comfortabilty. I'm not sure what causes it, but this can't stay in my ear at a long time, compared to the Moondrop Quarks, which is one of the smallest and cheapest In ear, but it has a muddy mid which I don't really like. But since it's has a really good price, I can't complain about this at all

I ended up returning these, however, due to two major issues. The first is entirely subject but worth mentioning: none of the included ear pieces worked for me. They were all either too large (resulting in a painful fit) or too small (resulting in no sound isolation). The second, and perhaps slightly more objective reason, was material quality

Basically, when I'm wearing them, only the tips are in and not the body, so I'll be sending them back. Before I purchased the T3 Plus, by the bunch of reviews and comments I've heard and read about the Moondrop Aria's, they seem like a good upgrade from the Blon's because of the similar warm balanced tuning. However, I'm still concerned about the fit since their size looks similar to the T3 Plus' and definitely those paint chipping issues.
