Nice review！can you compare to VG4 for me, is the midrange leaner as the VG4, or fuller, is it warmer or colder compare to VG4, and also how about the resolution and soundstage in comparison. Thank you !,
@jakefoxx7978 Жыл бұрын
Having gotten the Moondrop Kato recently I am in love with their sound and the tuning is right where I'd want it to be (minus a few occasions where the 6khz-ish dip does leave me wanting a smidgen more clarity, but that's nit-picking at this point) what grabbed my attention on these was namely their price and how close they come to the Kato tuning (as far as Crin's graphs have to say about it) while having that perfectly ergonomic shell that I've come to love from the Kinera Idun and JQ 4U Pro. I am a tad concerned about the 4khz-ish dip but everything else seems "fine" graph wise.

Does bass really benefit in adjusting the tuning switch?
@PrimeAudioReviews 3 жыл бұрын
Yep. Not by a lot - the biggest difference is in cutting the mids slightly which brings the relative level of bass forward, but the bass gets a little boost too.

@PrimeAudioReviews 2 жыл бұрын
Are you using the same source as you were at the store? In my experience, IEMs don't change with burn in. I'd be willing to bet the difference is related to something else (source, eartips, music files etc.)

It depends how much you want to spend. I would say the DUNU DK2001 or Shanling ME500 PLATINUM. For cheaper alternatives the FH3 or NF Audio NM2 Plus but it really depends what kind of upgrade you're looking for (tonality or technicalities etc).

Got these earlier this year secondhand for 120 US. Amazing fit, good bass and resolution, decent tuning, too bright for my taste but not really offensive. Soundstage depth is extremely narrow, almost non-existent, probably my biggest gripe with the L4. Overall, I wouldn't rec these for $199 given current competition but not half bad if you can find it for 100-120.
