First off I feel sorry for those of you who missed the " Wood is Good" Special. I missed it the first time around but after us MEE fans requested for them to run it again I jumped right on the deal. $19.99 with free shipping was too good to pass up.
I've seen a few reviews about these posted but it seems these aren't really talked about too much?
I have no idea why not?, These things are just fantastic. Really good, Really, Really, Really good!!!
They come well packaged just like all the other MEE products.
They include 3 sets of single-flange tips(S/M/L) 1 set of Double-Flange & 1 set of Triple-Flange tips.
1 small clamshell case. Which is a little smaller then the " Standard" case of the M series. But it is actually built better, It seems to be stronger. Also included is a shirt clip, Which is the new style, A big plus here. No more fighting to remove it from the cable.
No worries here on cable damage.
The IEM's are made of a light weight Samak wood with hard plastic rings for the tip and nozzle. The nozzles are actually oval, which adds to fantastic comfort. They are also protected by a fine mesh filter. The cable is your standard MEE cable that's on most of their products. Top shelf here. Maybe one of the best cables period. Not a Westone, but better then most cables in any price range.
The cable itself is termed with their new style gold L-plug. It's more of a hockey stick plug, but is quite nice. I prefer a full L-plug but I see no problems in the future. Top notch build quality as always coming from the MEE guys. They really have design down when it comes to IEMs
So you are wondering about the sound? Well in a word: Fantastic!!!
The Bass has a nice punch to it. I can't believe how much detail the low end has here. The depth is quite nice as well, Far from a Bass monster but these IEMs aren't supposed to be. These fall into the middle line of the Clarity series. So thats how I feel the Bass comes across, Clarity,Detail and perfect Bass Balance. What works real good here is the Bass has a very nice warm feel to it, It carries over into the lower Mids but never smearing the Mids. It just gives the Mids a simple warming up. Which works very well.
The Mids are just perfect. They are what I call perfectly balanced, Neutral all the way. They have so much Detail and Clarity.
It's just mind blowing the detail these but out. Guitars sound amazing.
Treble is great as well, there is some roll off at the very tip top but it has just superb crispness. No harshness here at all.
Treble Heads might want a little more but for my taste they are just right.
Soundstage is quite good as well, It has more depth from top to bottom instead of a wide scope. Quite nice actually, I call it about Mid head- Not completely out of head but not in head as well. Just the perfect space and air..Nice!!
I'd call these IEMs balanced with just a perfect balance of added warmth, The slight warmth works quite well here.
Classic Rock music sounds amazing. These IEMs remind me of a killer 1980's 2- way set up. It's like having some old Kenwood-
JL975 AV's being pushed by a Marantz 2240 in your ear. Warm and smooth with enough punch to rock out hard for hours.
With the (MSRP at $49.99) these are a steal. I think they normally go for 29.99 on MEE's website. It's hard to believe they only want $30 for these? These things punch WAY above their asking price..Value for the money is not even a question. You are getting so much with these IEM's. Highly Recommend for anyone looking for an amazing IEM under the $50 mark, You won't find anything that sounds this good at your local big box store, unless these are stocked there
