I’ve just ordered the CP100 so I can’t compare. Would need to wait a little more, but you can also refer to @Resolution and @nymz for that
I prefer CP100 for it due to the fit. Sound is close. It’s also the tips HBB used to tune it.
CP100
I get more comfort from the 145 . The 100 is just not as comfortable for me. They both sound good on Mele.
i thought CP 100 and 145 differ because of the bore fitting size?
Yes, and the outer diameter is slightly bigger on 145
yeah… just noticed that the base flange size differ too
100 M size is the sweet spot for me, I ordered 145 M size and it caused infection for me.
Yeah, it’s all about ears. Both will do good and both will fit
Congratz bro
I will make my first impression later on today also some comparison with my other iem.
About an hour i tried the mele using my pcm d100 as dap. I have not compare them to my other iem but have started rolling tips.
Out off the box impression.
The overall tuning for this iem is good for 50 usd asking price.
The bass and sub bass have good impact and goes deep though sometimes can bleed to the mid little bit.
Very good for deep male vocals and drums.
Accoutics guitar and bass guitar is very good on this iem.
Where i find lacking is that on very fast and busy track like orchestra it started to struggle. Well i cannot blame it since most orchestra is kinda hard on most iem in this price range and Certain high notes can be a bit veiled.
Changing the tips from the stock to jvc spiral dot ++ helps it a bit to increase the detail retriever and more shine to the treble compare to the original.
Overall my initial impression is that this is a good iem for the asking price of 50usd. The main selling point is the tonality and how natural most instrument are.
Sry if this intial impression is kinda crude.
Ordered, will get in a month or so. Sorry it took so long fam, really got bummed after the Ikko Gems killed my wallet and expectations .
Very confident in these though!
can someone please recommend me a bluetooth iem adapter for these that won’t hurt the quality ? Considering buying another set for the gym and want to make it wireless
thanks for any recommendation and help !
edit** - want it to be TWS
BTR5, Qudelix 5k, iFi Blu.
I’d get whats cheaper on your contry or easier to get.
earstudio ES100/ES100 MK2 also exists
That’s even cheaper! Does it also come with PEQ? Heard nice things about that one.
I would also look for battery life on any of these. Im a freak when things get discharged lol
Lots of reviewers cover this on YouTube, and they have more experience than me, but if you want to hear from a user: I have the Qudelix and it’s excellent. Personally picked it over ES100 and BTR5 after lots of research. Your call
