First impressions of the Oneplus Icons are very good. Bass is neutral yet digs pretty deep, great clarity, soundstage. Reminds me of the Titan 1 with less treble spiking. Audiophile tuned signature for sure.

Hmm interesting.

The detail retrieval might do wonders for trance. How's the bass and sub bass?

Also what's the best place to buy them?

Tingo also make another IEM called the GX5, I wonder what those are like.

The bass and sub-bass is nicely done.....not lacking, nor overpowering. The balance on these are excellent!
 
As always, I get them in taobao website, since I live and work in China.

But are they as good as €300 IEMs like the ad suggest though? :v

Tingo FL800? What a ugly fakes. Look at that awful cheap-looking Sennheiser logo

How is the fit and isolation?

Thank goodness, I'm not buying them for their logo. Pictures can be deceiving.....they really do look nice, housing, wires, and all.

Oh flat cables are the worst, even in my reviews I'm dropping points because of flat cables. Yeah, they tangle less, but their durability is awful!
And I'm still in love with Zircon's cable, and Piston 3's cable of course. I also received the Xiaomi Hybrid yesterday, still unopened...
 
EDIT: Just opened them. Damn the Hybrids are crazy XD way better than Piston 3.

I know right! The longest I've ever gone with a flat is 1 year and that's by being very very careful. In the end it still broke.
My rose gold piston 2.1 lasted me 1 year but it was my fault I broke it by accident :X

What about the GX11? Tempting buy but to our eyes we all know it's a UE clone. How they can make it so cheaply sounds weird. It's cheaper than the other unbranded DIY brands yet somehow.

What's wrong with that if it sounds good?

True and some people have been faking it forever

  I have found the XiangSheng DAC-05A, based on the TI PCM1794, for 898 CNY / £90 GBP / $135 USD, excluding delivery and customs fees for the 4kg unit...

Interesting find! Isn't XiangSheng the company that OEM's for Maverick Audio?

Well I don't care if you like fake (stolen) goods, it's your problem, but one of admins gave here a warning - no more fakes, or he's gonna shut this thread. So leave them for yourselves.

I got those too, they have a very clear sound and a gentle mid-bass. Not much sub-bass. Very good highs. The main problem with Tingo products is their inconsistency in build and even quality control issues. I got perfectly good GX5 and GX10 but a defective FL800 with the cable loose inside the defective earphone. The cable on my GX5 is not as pictured, but rather has standard splitter and plug, not the nice branded parts as pictured... The cable is a twisted cable, it's really soft and straight, not sure about durability, seems OK. DIY products can be problematic sometimes...
 

   
So, I´m doing my buisness around work doing anything but working, browsing forums, flashing phones and whatnot... And all of a sudden I see this! 
 
I laughes out loud and had to post it here

Yep, told ye I did my share of things on the net I guess you have an Xperia device as well.

I have to agree on this one. Tingo has it's own brand logo which can be easily found on GX5, but nowhere to be seen on GX10 or FL800. They should have removed all of Sennheiser's logos and replace them with their own for distinguishability.
As long as there are Sennheiser's logos all over it, it's by definition a fake.
