My experience with this one was enjoyable while it lasted.
I liked the sound quality, a whole step above peasant IEMs on that price range. They're big so I had to fiddle quite a bit to get a good seal, also I suggest to wear the cable over the ear to avoid extra noise when the cable moves. People with small ears will have trouble with this ones.
The cable produces noise, not very good. The cable splitter Y thing broke in no time.
Probably the best thing about them is that they don't have an enhanced boomy bass like the usual IEM you get for that price. For that reason they feel like less sensitive than the average IEM, they wouldn't get too loud on a regular cellphone whereas the little amp in the Fiio X1 had no issues. I expected more warmth and reverb on the lows from the wood but I was getting just a subtle warmth with some crispy highs and a moderate bass.
My units broke after few uses, at some point I dropped them from around 30cm of height and the headset got messed (one side sounds siblant and trebbly while the other got muffled and muddy). I'd say they're more hit than miss since they could get easily damaged in shipping considering the minor impact it took to mess them. Who knows how are they supposed to sound really unless you try a couple of them, maybe they're supposed to be bassy as advertised yet mine were not like that. There's more durable IEMs for the money but they tend to have a bassier signature.
