Opinions on IE200 (alien.top)

I see a lot of different opinions on the IE200. I personally have found it to be an extremely enjoyable and competent set especially for $150. I think they're better than my P5 and my Kiwi Ears Quintet. The quintet definitely has better separation and imaging, but the IE200 has a way wider stage. The treble is so smooth to my ears too. With all that being said I love this set, but I want to hear other opinions as I feel some of the hate is unwarranted.

I really like them and I get a really good seal with the eartips, surprisingly. The only thing lacking for me is detail. So I've got an ie600 coming in the mail.

I own the 200 300 and 600s and the 600s are something special. There one of my favorite IEMs right now and love listening to them over some of my other headphones i have.

Tape mod?

Put some tape around the nozzle to stop bass from leaking, they have very weak bass with stock tips

There is a bass bleed hole on the nozzle. Search for Gizaudio review for them, Timmy explains it in detail how it is affecting the sound.
