Perfect crystal clear sound with solid build quality. The best mid range IEM, packing well above its weight.
Best set of IEM I've heard. The last time I heard earphone that made me go WOW like this were my first pair of decent earphones, Shure e3c. My last pair of Etymotics HF2 were good but these blow them away, especially in terms of build quality, I had no urge to get the amazon extended warranty,If you like the Shure/Etymotics pure and accurate sound then these will be up your street. If you are off the BEATS persuasion and like the super bass boost equaliser preset then these probably aren't for you.I took one point off since the media controller cable has only one button with mic. The volume controls are the most if not the most useful control when listening to music, the one button with software for music control is terrible. It would cost literally a few pence to add volume control for android phones. I had to spend another £20 for a decent MMCX cable that had three button controls. It's a pain in the ass trying to finds 3 button mmcx cable that isn't' a cheap chinese knock off or a super expensive brand name cable with terrible reviews. So it was the time rather than cost of finding that cable which was annoying. To add insult to injury it came with two cables so you might expect one to be feature packed. On the plus side the MMCX earphones meant I could get another cable in the first place.

Almost great but let down by troublesome treble
Having owned these now for several weeks I have tried desperately to like them but I find that I just can't. I've tried all the tips multiple times. I've tried burning in them in for hours on end. But alas, they aren't for me.Amazing build quality and materials. Great cables and accessories.Great midrangeGreat sound stage with the silicone tipsDecent bass but not a lot of sub-bass extensionThe bad:Searingly hot treble with the silicone tipsComply tips tame the treble but muddy the bass and recess the midrangeThe treble can at times be absolutely brutal, with sibilance on female vocals in particular being the cause of much wincing. Generally speaking the treble has a kind of metallic quality or dryness/tizzyness (I assume due to the metal casing).It's a shame as this is an otherwise great product.

Great sound quality, terrible durability
First off, I love this earphone. This earphone punches way above its price range. Notably, it has a crisp and clear sound that I certainly miss. Bass and soundstage are not lacking either.But it stopped working within a week of use. A static sound was heard and the left earpiece stopped working. I switched the cables but to no avail. I would have asked to exchange for a new unit but since I live outside of the EU, returns and exchanges were pricey since VAT was charged everytime (GBP30 which is not refundable) the product would enter UK so I was a bit wary and would not risk another faulty unit.I would buy this product again but perhaps locally from another seller where returning and fixing would be easier to manage.

One of the biggest disappointments
I was really excited to get a set of new "higher-end" headphones. After looking at some reviews I decided to go with Pinnacle P2. And what a mistake that was.I don't understand why people describe these as "warm". They are NOT. These have a very tiny and cold sound. I've tried different plugs, that came with them and even tried to gently push the drivers towards my ears while listening to them, because I thought I was not getting a proper fit, as I couldn't believe IEMs at this price range could sound so bad. But it wasn't the fit - they just doesn't sound good. To give you some perspective - the earphones that came with my LG G6 blow these out of the water. Period.As for the comfort: the cable is bad, and I couldn't wear them over-ear style, as it kept falling off my ear. But they were quite comfortable, wearing cable down. The only thing they got right are ergonomics and noise isolation, but that's about it.I would like to point out that sound is a very subjective and some people might like this tiny, bright sound. But for me, coming from Sennheiser over ear headphones, the Pinnacle P2 just sound dull.

Excellent detail, although lacking in bass - amazing for classical. Doubts over cable durability.
Earphones are excellent - exquisite detail and wide sound stage. As other reviews have remarked the bass response is nothing to write home about. It's there, but very neutral and (to my ears) takes the life out of some musical styles where the bass is important. The result is a pair of earphones that are amazing for classical pieces but somewhat lacking for other styles (although still excellent in the mid-range and higher frequencies - without being shrill).One note on durability - after 15 months the right hand cable quite suddenly became detached where it joins the MMCX connector. The earphones were well looked after so this looks like a potential design flaw to me. The cable is quite stiff and inflexible so is perhaps more prone to breaks if than more flexible designs. On a positive note - as they were still within the 2 year warranty they were exchanged without question for a full replacement set of P1's and accessories. In this regard HiFi Headphones (the market place seller) were excellent - friendly, highly efficient and fast turnaround for a replacement - initially contacted them on Tues and had replacements by Fri the same week. Superb. The review would have been 5 stars for them.

Amazing sound quality for the price
I rarely leave reviews but these buds are probably the best audio equipment purchase I've made and deserve some praise. The detail of the sound, separation of instruments and wide soundstage make for the most pleasing listening experience I've had with iems. I did not think soundstage this good could be had with iems - more than holding their own against decent open back headphones.The phones have a neutral/accurate sound profile and shine on classical, jazz, without losing the excitement of bass heavy genres. They are brilliant all-rounders in my opinion and are my go tos for most listening from rock to symphonies to hip-hop.With the sound quality and solid build quality (they are built like tanks, sexy tanks albeit) at this price, Meeaudio have produced a miracle. Highly recommended.
