Hello guys this is my new review of the Meze Alba. Note that this iem is not sponsored or provided by any brand and I bought it with my own money.

**Unboxing** The best thing about this iem is the unboxing. This is one of the best looking boxes for my preference. It is a very minimalist white box. Inside you can find the eartips a case the cable and the iem. An extra type c dac is also provided by Meze which comes in a different small box.

**Look Feel and Fit** I baught this iem coz it looks very compact and comfortable. From the looks it seems very premium with a minimal classy design which I like. But when you grab them in hand you can feel the thick layer of paint outside the metal which doesnt feel good at least for me. It looks like the paint will peel off very fast. Although the iem feels very well built the paint doesnt feel right.

The metal iem feels heavy compared to its size since it is a very tiny iem. Even tho it was tiny it didnt fit me perfectly. Also thick nozzles are always an issue for me and these also have thick nozzles. So the fit is not good for my ears but it could be much better for someone who has a bit of a wide ear canal hole unlike mine.

**Sound Profile** I dont have much to talk about here coz for the price they dont sound like anything interesting. They are not bad but for around 100usd they could have done a lot better.

**Tuning** It is kinda a warm neutral u shaped layback tuning. Not very energetic just a relaxing layback type of sound.

**Bass** The bass is not very punchy. The sub bass is decent but the mid bass is not boomy or rumbling and it actually feels a bit thin.

**Mids** Vocals are good but I still feel they are not kinda full. Male vocals dont feel heavy they feel lite and thin. I mean they are not bad but just not for my liking.

**Treble** The treble is good and I didnt feel any sibilance or fatigue. Separation and soundstage is also average. There is nothing too impressive or too bad about them.

**My Verdict** I would say they are just an average kinda iem. I would pick the Kefine Delci over the Alba any day. The Delci is cheaper feels better has a better fit better sound and better technicals.

**Who Should Buy** Anyone who is looking for a small minimalist warm neutral and relaxing layback kind of tuning.

**Who Should Not Buy** Anyone who is looking for punchy bass an energetic feel and a highly technical set.

Overall if you have small ears you and ok with thick nozels just want a safe relaxing listen and dont mind the thick paint it might work for you.

Meze Alba still worth 100USD? My opinion.
