There are many, many reviews of this IEM, so any remarks I make here won't be very useful. In fact, 3+ years of great reviews is what made me so interested in this set. If you are trying to make a purchasing decision regarding the Mest MKII, so ahead and buy it. The legends are true. It is so fun!
Here are three observations. These are minor things that I learned after hearing it for myself:
- I received the new packaging, which is not described in most reviews. I tried several different aftermarket tips when I first got my Mest MKII, but the included tips in this new packaging are the best for me.
-The bass did surprise me, deeper and bigger than I thought. This is a happy surprise: it is delicious.
-I read many reviews saying the Mest MKII is brutal on old recordings, but I don't find that to be true, at least in my library. Old R&B, Jazz, and poorly-recorded Funk sound natural and alive.
If you are eyeing the Mest MKII, go ahead and buy it. Buy it here from MusicTeck: I cannot find it at a better price. Shipping was fast and free. Communication before the sale was really good too.
End-game iem for the price(999$).
Good sounstage, separation and imaging. Holographic sound. Non-fatiguing. Bass is decent/good but I would say is not for basshead people(maybe i need to try other tips). Fit is good. Good for gaming.
The new packaging is gorgeous.
For me, the mest mk2 is better than monarch mk2 and Sony ier-z1r.
What more can i say?.. Mest is the best.
I've had a pair of JHAudio JH13V2PRO for about 6 years now and it was time for an upgrade. Technically has really progressed in the IEM space in that time. The Mest MKII is better in literally every way. Thankfully UM still offers a custom shell service. I'll definitely have this done due to my tiny ears.
My first bc driver iems expirience and i love it. Shop is great, best of the best service. Would recommend for purchase and will continue to order here <3
Take note that i got this on sale even though id say its worth full price.
ive got heavy hitters such as EE odin and Bravura Warwick and Sonoma in my collection but i wanted to see what the hype was all about..it isent hype..this is genuine an awesome pair!
i find it abit hot on the treble on some songs and my ears havent adjusted quite yet to the bone conductor but im suprised how clean and engaging this pair is so far.
no regrets buying it!
Simply Amazing
The Lotoo GT2 is an amazing DAP. The treble has amazing detail and resolution, without harshness. Midrange is less colored than LPGT but meatier at the same time. The bass? I have never heard bass like GT2. It's a monster only biting off the perfect amount. Bass is powerful and accurate. GT2 seems to be made for my Meze 109 Pro headphones, but it sounds wonderful with all. I listen balanced. This DAP underwhelmed me initially but opens like a flower in the sun with more play time.

Lotoo GT2 maintains Lotoo neutrality with power and grace. Do not judge this DAP until you get substantial hours in. It underwhelmed me during the first several days, but is blowing every other DAP I own away now. I own Lotoo Paw Gold Touch, Lotoo Paw 6000, Sony NW-WM1Z, and Sony NW-WM1A. I listen balanced with Meze 109 Pro, Shure SRH1540, and Sennheiser HD660S2 headphones. It seems as if Meze 109 Pro is made for Lotoo GT2, but all my headphones sound phenomenal. The midrange is less colored than LPGT, but meatier. Treble is so detailed with outstanding resolution, absent harshness. The bass? Good Lord, it is a raging monster only biting off what it should. I have never heard such beautiful bass. This player isn't fully burned in. I am at about fifteen hours. I am told GT2 will get even better. I can't even imagine.
I own virtually all the TOTL iems, and I have never heard one as detailed and moving as the PMG APX SE. The bass thumps, the treble glistens, the soundstage is all over and the definition amongst instruments is the best I have heard. It is my clear favorite now.
First, I must tell that I am not an audiophile, just a music enthusiast. Owning only headphones wanted to give a try to IEMs since I am always on the go. This being my first IEM, wanted to invest in something good so after searching in this price range and reading multiple reviews, decided to go for the Softears Enigma.
Photographs don’t give enough credit; this set is gorgeous and elegant. Engaging, without being extremely striking, so I can listen to my music while I wear suit at work or jeans on the street. But, above all, the sound. Enigma just blowout my mind. Fantastic for my taste: beautifully balance, with good clarity, detail, separation and expanded soundstage. And in the center of all that, the magic of that vocal tuning. Some audiophiles find Enigma treble recessed, not for me: everything is there in the right amount and when music asks for a stronger performance, they become energetic. And add to that excellent comfort.
I pair them with iBasso DX320MAX Ti, Mojo 2 and Lotoo PAW GT2.
I am very happy with them and grateful with Andrew and his team.
