Riffing on the theme that you can’t have your cake and eat it, Final asks customers just one question: do you want to pay for headphones that have a large dollop of fashion cred to go with satisfying sonics or shell out not much at all for plainer, simpler fare that’s just as comfortable and still sounds great? That’s what the UX3000 is all about.
