Either your's is a fake/malfunction or you did not get a good seal with the stock tips.
All the stock tips cannot make it and I ended up using Ortofon tips which happened to cost more than the Pistons itself.

To me the 2.1 is tilted to bass-heavy IEM as the top end is rolled-off.
Being a dynamic driver with a vented designed, I find them to have more bass than what I would have called neutral

Wow. Im experiencing the opposite to what you've said. Gonna try with spare tips from lenovo iem (it came with the phone). If that doesnt work then i more might have to raise this issue with dealer. Thanks

Add: it's the tip alright. I changed it then wah, it's boomy. It's a keeper now. Tyvm

Just received Piston 3 and I can say this is definitely the better IEM. Piston2 sounds like shit. It is a lot more balanced.

The mid bass of xiaomi3 is a tad bloated for my taste. Turns out to be not so natural compared to 2.0. Well but for this price point, it still offer the best price to quality ratio.

is Xiaomi Piston 3 available there?

you can call to find up

Thanks

How much was cheapest price for Piston 2 when on sale back then ?

now the new hybrid mi iem is out, who will be getting one, not the piston 3, its the quantie

i will buy one..RMB99 for BA+DD..what is there to lose

should i wait for it to be officially available here or just get it from garage sale..a guy doing pre order for RM85

thats the person im getting from, he is the first wave, do or die, but i believe in LYN sellers with some sales records

Apparently it'll be V shaped sound signature which is a no no for me, so won't be getting it

older pistons are v but this might be more levelled according to what i read

please let us hear your opinion when you received yours

just got mine today, going to do some test and will create a short thread review when i feel it is ready

first impression roughly is it's really a deep V sig, like a 36D cleavage
