Nice lightweight hands-free set with big bass emphasis. Unfortunately, everything else about the sound is bad. Dark, muddy sound drown by a big but bad sounding bass.

Recently, I've sent them to Oratory1990 for measurements and EQ. With this, T200A was transformed from the dustbin item to a contender. The bass was reigned in, midrange got presence and clarity. Treble is maybe a little hot, but never sibilant. Coupled with fantastic isolation, size (small and light) and comfort, it entered my regular IEM rotation. Also, it's bass impact is best of all my IEMs (probably thanks to it's unvented design). With EQ, I would give them 3.0 rating.
