Wanted to provide some personal feedback on MEE's new Bluetooth headset.
First, packaging and design are very nice. The color scheme immediately resembles Dre Beats headphones, but this scarcely bothers me. I would prefer an all black design if given the choice though.
Comes carrying pouch, USB cord for charging, as well as a cord to attach to the headphones when you don't want to utilize the bluetooth function.
So far, overall package is great quality and worth the asking price. Sound quality is top-notch for sub-$100 headphone. Using the headphones wirelessly via my laptop (which has Bluetooth built-in) and Nokia Lumia Windows Phone, the sound quality is great, though not quite as good when used with the regular wire. I expected this as Bluetooth audio always involves a slight degradation in SQ, but it stands up quite well in my opinion and is nothing close to a dealbreaker. What I notice most is the highs don't come across as clear. When using at the gym for instance, having a wireless setup is more important to me than being able to hear every ridiculous nuance of my music.
As for SQ itself, I quite enjoy it. After burning in for a few hours, a sound signature emerges that is somewhat similar to MEE's HT-21s but better. Whereas the latter could be a bit too harsh for my ears, the sound signature with the AF32 achieves a smooth balance between highs and lows. Bass is extra punchy, perfect for the majority of metal I listen to. These are NOT bass monsters, and thank god for that. The sound is very pleasing to my ears. MEE has sculpted a perfect signature that enhances the material I listen to quite well. The mix of treble and punchy bass is exactly what I hoped for while the mids are not as forward as the HT-21, but not recessed either to my ears. Nicely detailed, wide soundstage, and overall punchy sound signature make for a pleasing listening experience. Overall, I can say these are excellent used wired or wirelessly (I will use them more wired than wirelessly, it is incredibly convenient to have the wireless function for various situations that may call for it.) This is easily my favorite purchase from MEElectronics yet.
