Fit and build quality is top notch. Accessories provided are very good for the price point. DAC provided serves the purpose.Its not neutral, i strongly feel it is V shaped sound . The bass and treble is boosted. While this helps in hearing/analysing all instruments and their placement, the vocal get a hit. It doesnt mean songs sound bad in this, it is punchy/crispy/glittery. For melodious vocal focussed songs, the emotion will be lost. Feels like meaty part from the mids have been chopped off in the process of boosting bass and treble. For eg: voice of Arijit Singh sounds little strange and lean.At the same time punchy songs sound as they should.In short this is how it sounds if we EQ the bass and treble. Its a fun, enjoyable iem.

By far one of the most fun and engaging pair of IEM you can purchase. The lows, mids and highs are sufficiently balanced to give out a well balanced and enjoyable blend of music. Having the Softears Twilight in my collection and comparing the 2, the Alba is very similar to the Twilight which cost about 7 times more. While being similar, the Alba is less warmer than the Twilight which will be good for those leaning towards neutrality in sound. Comfort and fit is excellent, Infact the Alba is probably the most comfortable of all the IEM's i own. Im do not like the stock medium eartips provided as they are smaller than usual size and do not give a good seal, I used the Comply- Smart core instead and found it to give the Alba the best sound.(Review submitted after ... MoreBy far one of the most fun and engaging pair of IEM you can purchase.

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 ... MoreThese little iem's are fantastic!

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.
