ALBA

The iem is made , at a much higher level of quality , for the price you have to pay. More companies should do this ! Keep up the great work. Hope there is more to come.

I couldn't believe how sibilant they were. The most sibilant headphones I've ever heard. So, I thought that maybe they were defective because there's just no way that they sound like this. Then, someone told me to change the tips. None of the tips that came with them helped, so I bought some foam tips. The foam tips do help a little if I crush them down as small as they'll get and quickly cram them way down into my ear canals. But then they hurt after two or three minutes. It can't be treble sensitivity because I have many headphones form Focal, Hifiman, Sennheiser, etc. And none of them are even 25% as sibilant as these. I don't even wear them at all because of it. It's like going into an EQ and adding plus 20 treble on the first four treble sliders. I'm still going to buy even more tips to see if I can make them usable. But it shouldn't be this hard to make them usable.

These little iem's are fantastic! I bought these because I wanted a cheaper iem to take to me when I go to work and workout. I have always loved the Meze products (I have the 109 Pro, Liric, and Advar). They are crafted with every little detail thought of(the 2pin connection areas on the iems being different colors to indicate which needs to be plugged into which port.
They fit my ears well, a good seal on them, and they are very light. Not heavy to feel like they are going to fall out on there own.
The sound is fantastic. You will get the same Meze house sound with a bit of warmth to everything, and some nice sub bass.
The color is more of a pearlescent rather than a white. The Meze DAC/AMP dongle that comes with the Alba's was a very nice thing to add. I use it all the time for my car to attach it to my phone or my DAP. It has a little white led light on the rubber cable strain relief to indicate it has power was a brilliant touch. The small white carrying case gets the job done. I wish it could have been a bit bigger considering you have to cram the cable while trying to zip/close it. Luckily the cable that it comes with is very soft, and easy to bend around.
Overall I am very happy with my purchase and I am happy to continue to support Meze. I am glad they made them this price to reach a larger audience. The more people get into great sound products, the better it will become.

A beautiful set of IEMs that fit comfortably in your ears and are paired with a high quality cable, carrying case, and USB-C dongle. They’re easy to listen to and are excellent for everyday listening. You can’t go wrong with these at their price point.

This IEM clearly punches above its price range!
I am very happy with this purchase! I threw airpods pro 2 out and never getting back…
