After one of the most stressful weeks of my life, I come home to find the Piston 3.0 in my mailbox.They were exactly what I needed to wind down. Looking forward to putting some serious listening time on them, as ootb I'm absolutely loving them. Best 8 USD I've ever spent.

I've only listened to a few songs, so I can't say yet. They fit me better than any of the KZs, except maybe the ANV. The ANV and PIston 3.0 are some of the only iems that I can just shove in my ears fuss free. Love em.

Posted the link a while back. Was a very limited time offer. Got an ed9 from the same store for 6 bucks :3 Doesn't get much better than that.

How do these compare to UE600? My dumb phone (LG G3) won't tolerate an sensitive/low impedance cans without horrible hissing and distortion and I don't really feel like getting yet another 100e pair of headphones just because.
 
Also, is the isolation enough for walking around the town or e.g. public transport?

I just bought the Youth Edition for 8 bucks on tinydeals. Hoping their pretty similar soundwise.

Has anyone tried taking the filters off? How do they sound?
 
EDIT: I just went ahead and took them off... It doesn't really improve the lack of sharpness or precision but I will give it some time.

I find the isolation in piston 3 is terrible compared to piston 2. Personally dont find the isolation in piston 3 enuff for public transport. But piston 2 yes.

Try using the 2's ear tips with the 3 if possible.

Just curious. I am thinking of buying new Pistons. Would you all recommend me to buy 3.0 or 2.0?
 
Thanks!

3.0 - more balanced sound.
 
2.0 - more bass at expense of mids and treble.

@hessi 
have you found out if the ones with the simplified packaging are legit? i guess they are since the link in the chart on the first page leads to them and the reviews are apparently all 5 stars but i would like to get a confirmation on that.
thx

Go with piston 2. You may even get better deal since many shops are having clearance sale on piston 2.

 
Where, and how much?
