A BIG thank you to ikko Audio for providing the OH10s for review, much appreciated. The OH10s wasn't a favorite of mine, is the OH10s an improvement? How does it compare to the Hidizs MS3?

I am not a professional sound engineer, producer, musician, or vocalist, etc. I have not done any scientific research, measurements, or in-depth testing of any kind; just my own listening, comparing and internet reading/research. I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician.

Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.
