Amazon finally offer me gift card as compensation of this bad transaction..
I'm stiil want to have the Pistons 2, so I will do with very carefull to choose good and honest seller in Amazon.

If you want to buy from Amazon, try Robert's Superstore. It's confirmed to sell legit Pistons.
As for the fake seller, do you mind giving me a link to their product page of the Pistons? It's so I could put up a link on the OP.

Oddly I noticed that the left earphone doesn't give my ear a perfect seal, while the right one does. Tried it on both ears and confirmed it's not my ear canals that are causing it. Anyone?

 

[luberconn]

tips would be the only reason you're not getting a good seal.  
 
 
i need a recabling.  i still have my pistons but they have a tiny tear in the wire going up to left housing and it is shorting out and not producing sound on that side.  i don't know how to do any of that though.  
 
i also thought my fiio e11 made my pistons sound worse than un-amped.  with my t1e it greatly enhanced them.  anyone else experience this with the pistons?

I remember someone talk about that a few pages back. It weird me out, as well (no, I don't have an amp yet, but I've noticed it with more powerful sources).

Finally received my set of "Xiaomis" today from Focalprice.. I literally began laughing out loud as I opened them up & compared them to the real ones from ibuygou. First off, the pic of them on their website shows that they don't even have a rear port, but yet the ones I got do. Must have happened in transit? Not that I'd ever put them anywhere near my ears.Every single thing about them reeks of ...well...crap. The brown rubber "holder" side grooves wobble like jello, casting lines everywhere, including the tips, the plastic case itself doesn't even fit together properly. The whole thing reeks of some chemical, it is certainly not chocolate...lol In the reviews page on these, someone wrote a long paragraph about how these are absolutely genuine. My man must be both deaf and blind.

Yesterday I said that I don't find them bassy...I was wrong! DAt BaS$ DHO! Anyways, these things are fantastic. Your music will have new sounds if you used cheap headphones or earphones.
Okay so I came here to tell about the compatibility with devices:

With Apple devices: Volume buttons won't work, the play pause does however.

With Windows devices: All buttons work (Atleast for Lumia 520)

Android devices: Depends. It will work with some and won't work with some.Play and pause button should work with all devices but there is a lot of variety when you talkin android, so yeah it depends. For my LG E450, no it didn't. For all Xiaomi devices...You are kidding right? I've read it does work on some Sony devices, some HTC devices and some Samsung devices.

For laptops...Not sure. Might work with some.

I am happy with my purchase !

Go to this link. Try the binaural check but don't read what's written under that test. It'll make you remove your earphones and make you ask yourself "Did my earphone do that?" You'll be surprised. I bet!

it maybe because of your sound source, i don't know. i use my earphones with computer sound cards and i tried piston with fiio e11 too. i got nearly 0 improvement with amp and i was expecting that because it's a low sounding ordinary earphone, unlike some people says. it's just not capable of giving more. if you're referring to that, with no or nearly none improvements with amplification, i can approve with that. it has to lose quality first to recover with an amp, if there's nothing to improve what an amplifier can do ? but sounding worse than unamped ? i don't know anything about it.

Why are you still bashing the Pistons? It's done with. Please. If you don't like it then just don't say things discouraging people from buying what they might like to buy. Thank you very much.

 

[spurxiii]

The pistons sound better amped IMO. There's improvements across the board but the main thing is in the bass control making it less flabby down low
