I had mixed feelings about this IEM. My impressions don't really line up with the hype train that well either. I had a hard time justifying this purchase when there are so many better IEMs available for the same (or slightly more) amount of money. Take a look at my full review here:

I don't think there are enough reviews/impressions out there yet to call any of them an outlier. Beyond mine, Aaron's and Head Pie's reviews, there is little to no coverage of these, at least not that I can find.

There's too many similarities to the original GT100s for it to be a defect, in my opinion. Furthermore its basically impossible to return these if they are defective (on the basis of sound signature) so either way I think it's representative of a potential user experience.

In reviews these look great. But for the same price of the Tin T2 pros, which would you buy to listen to 90s hip hop ?

I have similar complaints for the Pro, which sucks because I like the detail in the sound. I’ve been told that using Spiral Dots for the ear tips helps with the odd frequency response a bit, haven’t had the chance to try it yet myself, though.

jakob.sSpiral dots don’t help at all. There’s not a single tip that’s going to help the pro. It’s just not tuned very well. I recently got an updated amp and DAP, and neither really helped to fix the “too much treble and no bass” tuning, which is so odd since it’s a double dynamic.

bought a pair of early version (non-removable cable, hard-to-open packaging). great value for the price when it was working. then one side died way prematurely. Non-MD purchase though.

sad to see that I'm not alone. Now I'm only investing in IEMs with detachable cables.

for $39.99 these are a steal! i have them and enjoy them. they are a bit more difficult to drive than some of my other IEMs, but if you have a DAC/Amp, these things shine. for the price, you can't go wrong IMO

ShermanLeeI wish, lol. I only have the regular EDC which I'd take these over. I also have the Nuforce HEM3, but as far as I know the tuning is nothing like the EDC3.

Why would a company choose STAINLESS STEEL (and it would have to be THIN steel, as they say, but this is worse still from an audio perspective) for their IEM housings over aluminium, when steel has a higher melting point (they're injection moulded, remember!?), is heavier per any given structure made to be of similar strength to an alu structure (even when you allow for less steel needing to be used, thanks to the metal's higher strength), and worst of all, is far less inert (more "springy" than alu) ESPECIALLY when made with thinner walls, thus much more prone to causing / amplifying artefacts!

MassivePressureBut if you made it out of aluminum you couldn't proudly display "made from stainless steel" on the box/Massdrop advert.

For whoever is interested: Included freq response to see what's emphasized. To me, they're pretty similar, perhaps smoother treble due to a dedicated BA. Hopefully someone whose heard both can comment on their difference in tonality. If it still contains that instrument separation: dat blank spaces :^) GT100S graph: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0VOjqY8dVYWa0lpLUNRZEdKekE/view GT100S Sauce: http://www.inearmatters.net/p/measurement.html

Decent bass and soundstage, with a V-ish "fun sound" but IMO the standout of these IEMs may be the fast and clear highs coming off the balanced armature driver.
Also you might find these on the heavier side at first, but it's easy to get used to as they are definitely comfortable.
And yet another edit: great build quality.
