The OD100 also came with a nice carry case, which is compact and pocketable.

The retail box is pretty minimalist in looks.



SOUND IMPRESSIONS :

SUB BASS :
The ssub bass of the OD100, can get deep in some tracks with a deep sub bass rumble, the OD100 does have some okay bass, it's not the most clean sub bass though, it can tend to distort just a little bit at the ultra low sub bass frequencies, most of the rumble and slam isn't too bad though, and they do have some good punch for kick drums.
I found the bass to be decently presented in texture and speed, but didn't extend too much into that deep sub bass area, where genres like Drum and Bass, Dubstep, Hip Hop, Grime, Trap have often a lot of sub bass.
But the bass is still quite good in quality, it's got some warmth to it too.
The bass is a little more suited to playback with base guitars, cellos, piano, organs.

MIDS:
The mids are well rounded, decent presentation in the mids, they are warm and fairly natural.
Vocals sound fairly natural, a hint of warmth, good clarity and good texture to the vocals.
Female vocals can sound just a little thin some times though.
But they have some air to them.
The upper mids are okay, male vocals aren't too bad, they could be warmer though.
Guitars did sound reasonably natural.
All in all the mids and mid bass is pretty okay, I did enjoy it and it does have some decent texture and some good weight.

TREBLE:
The treble of the OD100 is decently extended, it's mostly natural, not the best I've heard resolution wise, but it's got decent treble clarity, and good resolution.
It can sound just a little thin sometimes, but the warm bassy texture down low helps to give the treble a mostly natural feel, it's just not the best treble I've heard in the OD100's price range though.

COMPARISONS:
The OD100 vs The Simgot EA500LM



The EA500LM has more vibrant treble, a more fun and engaging bass, better technicalities and resolution in the treble, a more natural texture to the mids and treble, better sound stage, better build quality and is more comfortable too.

CONCLUSION:
Would I pick the OD100 over some IEM's in a similar price category, like the Simgot EA500, EA500LM, Juzear Clear, the answer is, no, no I wouldn't, simply because I personally think they all have more to offer when it comes to a more engaging sound, better resolution and better value for money.
