    Interesting take and nice impression of some part of Chennai.
    Single DD and percussion guy here with literally millions of well recorded 24bit samples. Now, while each of the Simgots reproduces my ref samples slightly differently and there are IEMs with more natural (and faaar worse) timbres out there I'm still more than OK with the tonal, timbral and technical rendering of my single DD Simgots (500, 1000, LM) on a great source and better cable *AFTER* some quick and dirty mods (nozzles, foam, mesh). YMMV.

    Hey, would you be able to make a recommendation for male vocals between $20-50?
    I tend to like natural, clean, and slightly forward vocals. I'm recently lost my Zero 1s and was looking for a replacement.
    I was looking at (going upwards in price) IEMs like, the EPZ Q1 Pro, the Moondrop Lans, and quite possibly the Artti R2s.
    For reference, I own the Zero 2s now but I find that male vocals come across as a bit muddy at times. I like natural yet slightly energetic vocals that are clean.
    Thanks 👍

  • @nikhilchandra3778
    @nikhilchandra3778 Місяць тому

    Agreed! I own the LM for the past 3 months and I often wonder what is it that it does the best? Why do I have it in my collection? The Imaging is nowhere precise, only thing I can give it to the LM is the wider soundstage. The sub-bass is there but the impact of drums is lacking, the instruments suffer from metallic timbre and Vocals are pushed back, got clarity but no sweetness.
    ESS DACs makes the treble even sharper, I enjoyed it a little on iFi xDSD Gryphon though. I often go back to my 5 year old iBasso IT00 but miss the slightly better Instrument separation I get on the LM, so then I eq and use the LM until I find a better iem to hold onto. Eyes on the new MEZE Alba now.

  • @alberk77
    @alberk77 2 місяці тому +2

    Disagree but just not because I love 500LM in all ways. If this hobby is completely subjective why I should recommend or not an IEM or Headphone to anyone? So what I recommend is to buy whatever IEM you want to try and have your own conclusions. The only advice is be sure the fit is the best for your ears, choose the correct esrtips with a good seal, deep insertion and listen to your favorite songs. Maybe you enjoy it, may be not. All is up to you!
    Note: I own the OG EA500, EA500LM n' EA1000 in my collection. All 3 sound way different. Not better not worse than the other, only different. I personally enjoy the EA1000 the most

    yeah i think this simgot sets get hype because of the detail, but that detail comes at the price of being very cold and metallic. so yeah this sets( simgot) are very good at that, being detail or perceive detail but the timbre is not that good
    you should try the artti t10 budget planar, getting good reviews or the budget dsp offerings tanchjim one dsp(standard tuning is crin 2020 with bass boost and in the app it has neutral no bass boost, it has harman and a few other) and the chu 2 dsp(also crin 2020 with bass boost).

    Looks like you had badQC/faulty unit, treble channel mismatch will do this to you.
    Ea500lm is significantly better than ea500 technical wise even if you EQ them flatly to harman.
    One of the reasons why it's hard to take most of IEM review community for more than entertainment. It's such a mess to fabricate far-reaching conclusions based on a single unit, without proper measuring equipment and without looking around and thinking about real reasons for the clear anomaly.

    • @Danger0use
      @Danger0use 2 місяці тому +1

      I think it's more on the manufacturers not giving their products proper QC. You shouldn't expect reviewers to go out of their way to see every unit and measure a lot in case there is variation. Not to mention everyone's ears are different and because of tuning, sometimes the technicalities can be lost if other frequencies distract from that. Like for example I didn't think the Olina SE was that technically great until I put a set of foam tips on it to tame those upper mids. Unless you're sensitive to upper mids like I am you wouldn't perceive an issue. So if you don't agree with a reviewer fine, find someone that does agree with you because chances are they have an ear like yours. You wouldn't go to a treble lover if you were a bass head as a simple example.
      Sorry for the essay but this kind of take bugs me when there is a serious lack of perspective for how other people perceive sound.

      @@andersonbritto3088 But we don't know what it sounded like in real life so you're comparing what you hear to what you think that sound should be. But it might've sounded totally different the way it was recorded. The only way to make sure we have the right amount of detail is to emulate audio mastering gear. Assuming that, we probably should be aiming at a nice smooth fr curve that tracks our pinna gain closely and ensures parts of the fr are given equal attention, no peaks or dips. The rest is up to the track itself. If it's bad it's gonna sound bad, if it's detailed it'll be detailed but never over or underemphasized because of our playback device (like nobody expects a 240p video to turn 4k just because the screen is 4k). So the "detail" lives in both production and reproduction but for some reason the audio market focuses only on the reproduction side. Wonder why?.. This might be why other reviewers liked the LM. The more exotic the tuning the more hit or miss the iem/track pairing becomes.
