Sound quality description
In this review, I use the standard eartips size L and drive it with the FiiO M15.
The Tingker TK160 has a neutral sound, leaning toward the low frequencies. The midrange sounds bright and clear, but the highs have a mild monitor-like listening sound. It is attractive because of its excellent midrange transparency, but it lacks subtlety and clarity, so it is not sufficient for monitoring purposes.
Please see here for detailed reviews on sound quality.
Sound quality general comment
- Original Sound Fidelity: B+
- Recommendation: A+
- Personal preference: A+
The Tingker TK160 is an attractive listening earphone with a very clear and mild midrange. In terms of audio specs, it completely transcends its price point, but you may find that the highs are a bit too quiet and lack spontaneity. It is one of the best earphones for people who are sensitive to high frequencies and enjoy vocal-centric music.

General comment
The Tingker TK160 is an attractive listening earphone with deep low frequencies and a bright-sounding, ear-friendly, cheerful midrange. Its sound is very clear and transparent, bright and mellow, articulate yet mellow and gentle to the ear, and has the typical tendencies of a beautiful sound system. It offers an excellent mellow sound at a very low price, and will bring listeners who love melodious sounds a level of satisfaction that exceeds the price and rivals that of high-end products.
