So considering the max odds of receiving the M9...how are they for 26$ ?

Any one please reply fast as time is running out :ashamed:
 
^ You are right when you say one can either love them or hate them. The M9s recessed mids can be big no for lot of people but I do feel overall they are pretty good for the price (not comparing them to the other expensive stuff that we have ;) ) . Also MEEelectronic guys are working on improving the M9 mids mostly by introducing a better tip.Lets see how that works out.

^ How's the isolation and comfort on these?

IIRC, weren't they selling these IEMs cheaper?

The comfort and isolation of M9 is as good as most other IEMs. Actually it depends a lot from ear to war as well but in general due to tis generic design , its good . The M6 as pointed out by haraakiri are very comfortable .I haven't tried the M6 for long so can't really comment much on the sound. Viralbug might be able to help you with that ;).

I have no idea about the earlier pricing .Most online retailers like Amazon sell it for less than listed price on the site. :)

Right :P

By the way, the build quality of M6 is excellent and comfortable secure fit, almost absent microphonics allows it to be easily used in a gym or while jogging.

I am sure, if a few here on TE get these and provide their impressions, these will become one of the most famous in this price range. And Faheem, waiting for your impressions now. Do take the "usual" long time for your reviews. :P

That's what I wanted to know!

Faheem is due many, many reviews. Considering the price point of these IEMs, would be nice if he posts these before some of the others :)
 
^ LoL.. I have completed most of the reviews. The one's that are pending , I will be posting a comparison / impressions once the competitor arrives. :) This isn't my full time job guys ,I have college ,studies and other things to take care of as well ;). If time permits you will even see a complete guide /comparison of IEMs from each price point.Might need help from some of you guys if that happens .

I am eagerly awaiting that. It's high time we have a TE version of "100 IEM comparison" ;)
 
^ Not a tracked courier but pretty reliable IMO . My 3 parcels arrived in 9,11 and 12 days respectively. No customs charged :).
 
M9 - These are really good for the price. They have lots of soundstage for the price. As said, the mids are kind of recessed but they are not bad. The bass and highs are pretty decent. Treble may be a bit shrill. Overall I feel they are very good and I would personally rate them over even NE6. These are super VFM.

M6 - M6 has an over the ear design and gives me a very good fit. Infact, it is one of the most comfortable IEM's I have tried until now. However, some might not get as good a fit as I have. There's lots of bass, slightly uncontrolled and boomy. The highs are fairly detailed. Mids are slightly recessed, but not as much as the other Meelec offerings. Soundstage is decent too. These have a sound signature quite similar to the UE TF10, ofcourse it isn't anywhere close to the details and refinement of TF10. The transparent looks give it a real cool look of custom-like. :P As I put it in my words, the M6 are "a very poor man's remolded TF10". :P However, these can be fatiguing after some listening and wouldn't be preferable for long sessions. Some very sensitive ears might find these just slightly shrill.

One weird thing that I encountered today with these were that they have a just slightly smaller jack. As a result, I was not able to properly plug these into a friend's Nokia E72. So there might be a problem with using these with phones/players with slightly recessed jack. I'll check on this more.

M11 - M11 has a slightly different sound signature compared to all their other variants. The M11 doesn't have sparkly highs like the M6, it is more softer but still retain quite a lot of details. The bass is decent but has less impact than the M6. The mids again are just slightly laid back, but they don't feel as much recessed. The overall sound is more balanced out of the lot. At first I didn't really find these that exciting. However, right now, I'm starting to like these as much as the M6. These are great for casual/relax listening and you can keep these on for long hours without a problem. The metal housing gives it a classy look.

One of the big plus points of all these Meelec IEMs are that they have really awesome cables and a provided with a nice case and accessories. The build quality is top notch and well exceeds it's price in the build quality and accessories department. M9 and M6 are clear winners IMO. The M11 also are good sounding IEMs which are well worth the price.
 
How fast do they ship the orders ? Or will they be doing after the offer ends, that is 31st August EOD US time.

Also this is the first time i have ordered something which i supposed to come in USPS first class mail service. I guess someone said above that it is expected to reach in like 10-12 days. It will be delivered by postman here ??

Sorry if some queries sound dumb :ashamed:

I hope the customs dont open the package as they did with my Soundmagic MP21
 
^ In my experience , though the USPS parcels are delivered and taken care by Indian Post after they go through customs check the and overall process was faster most probably because it went through a different customs department at Mumbai compared to out usual China EMS parcels. Almost all my China EMS parcels are open and thoroughly checked and than a small customs note is attached to the parcel with the exact duty / Free handwritten over it . These USPS parcels arrived sealed and all of them just had a big blue stamp by customs which said something like "Central appraising section- Khodiyar bhavan ballard estate " . AFAIK , the China EMS parcels go through a different Customs clearance at the "Postal Appraising Center APSO, Santacruz-Mumbai ."

This could be one of the reasons why most of my USPS parcels arrive so fast but I am not sure if it will work the same way always . One of my other parcels hasn't arrived yet since 14-15 days .
 
@viralbug that's really good impressions. Thanks a lot. Great comparisons too. I too sometimes feel M6 is sort of cheaper TF10. :P
 
My order has been shipped by USPS and have also got the tracking number (which i did not expect initially), hope this thing arrives soon. Will update later here.
 
I had ordered the earphones on 31st August US EOD and till now the USPS website shows the status as following. Any clue about this ? Whom can i contact ?

Label/Receipt Number: LN06 XXXX XXXU S

Class: First-Class Mail International

Service(s): International Letter

Status: Electronic Shipping Info Received

The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on September 03, 2010 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.

I have dropped a mail to their customer service for the same. Lets see what they have to say.
 
Within 12 days of placing the order, you will get it normally. Since it was Labour day and 9/11, the order may be delayed. Just wait for two or three days, you will get it.
 
Got reply from them which said that it should take more 2 weeks may be since total SLA is like 2-4 weeks. So i guess i will have to wait a bit. Hope it arrives soon.

But something really interesting (i did not know this) came in the same mail is this....

I am happy to announce that MEElectronics is working with Media Home to offer our products locally in India. Products should be available in the next month or so and your future orders should arrive much quicker!
 
As expected, i got M9 in the package. The earphones are sounding very good and currently in burn in process. :)

PS: TE is back again :hap2:
