  • Here is my take on the Simgot Supermix 4. These are a "Quadbrid" and use a Dynamic driver, Balanced armature, Planar and Piezo driver per side.

    Thanks for the review. I've been waiting for this. There's something I want to ask you in particular. I'm likely to order this set in a few days. I don't have a proper dongle and I'm thinking of ordering the Fiio KA11. You've shared a detailed review of it before. It is said to be a bit warm dongle in general. Which seems to match well with the tonal character of the SM4. Have you tried these two together? Do you think it would be a good match or should I look for something else?

    I appreciate your review many thanks, simgot allways seem to be harman tuned,bright sounding with a lack of midbass but have great technicalitys apart from the EM6L which i found overly smooth which seemed to blunt midbass impact but nice for treble sensitive folk and those who like warm sounding iems

    I have the Quintet on my wishlist and wondering since these are designed like those but 70.00 cheaper, would it be the better pick or pay the 70.00 more and get the Quintet... oh the decisions... I want a pair that I would dedicate to Classical style music. The DaVinci do Classical very well so I'm not sure if I should even consider buying a set dedicated to Classical or not. Fantastic review!

    • @apollomoonlandings
      @apollomoonlandings Місяць тому +1

      The Quintet and the Supermix 4 have similar tuning. The Supermix 4 has slightly more mid bass tuck such that the Quintet is more even in the midrange. Both need a bit of parametric EQ to tweak them for classical music.

    nice content, im on the fence of buying my first iem's, i listen a lot to jpop / pop and i game a lot too even tho im more of a story game player, but i do some fps too. im lost between those 2 since they are almost the same price: should i get truthear nova or supermix 4 ?

    • @VortexReviews1

    @apollomoonlandings Місяць тому +1

    I downloaded and averaged several Supermix 4 graphs from squiglink. Your graph and others show that this is a bright leaning IEM with a bit too much of a mid bass tuck. This confirms your descriptions of the overall tonality. It appears that the Supermix 4 will take well to parametric EQ in order to tweak this IEM to your liking.

    I see some people have different tuning on the EA500LM. Now I see it again in SM4. Your tuning is different from some people's, for example Aftersound Review. His has a slightly calmer/less upper mid and treble. I think Simgot should pay more attention to their QC.
