Good thing they put the tuning switches on the IEM than going the DSP route, I have One DSP trust me no one should use the Tanchjim App it's pretty bad & a huge security risk.

This Engineer concept is similar to Sennheiser ie900 with three XR chambers.

I will wait for 11/11 sale on aliexpress and hopefully find one at a good price, it seems to be a good complement to my current IEMs (EW200 for treble, Artti R1 for bass, just need something more neutral and wasn't finding a lot of options for around 50 USD). I was going to get the tanchjim zero but the lack of removable cables and cheaper build made me hesitant and made me wish "there was a more premium version of it". A few days later this video appears LOL 4:30 - I know you said you prefer foam tips but have you tried penon liqueur silicone eartips? they offered much better seal for me

@donglemadness Ай бұрын

No I haven't tried the Penon tips. For the most part, I use KZ Foam tips which seems to be working all the time when I need them the most

Actually, with the code 10HIFIGO4U total price drops to USD 60, that's attractive.

Hi Andy, I like the sound of tanchjim, zero, kara, origin and will probably get the 4u. I'm not changing the cables yet. what do you think, which DAC will be better for tanchjim? onix alpa vs. Shanling ua 4? and is there a big difference in setup between 3.5 vs. 4.4?

@donglemadness 16 күн бұрын

ONIX Alpha of course, more organic sounding yet transparent and analytical. With ONIX Alpha, on highly scalable IEMs like Zero and 4U, you will hear that the 4.4mm BAL side will offer audible improvements on separation, staging and dynamics

@LibericaBorneo Ай бұрын

Interesting. Would this be an upgrade/sidegrade to Simgot EA500LM?

@donglemadness Ай бұрын

Technically it is an upgrade to EA500, but on timbre, tonality and smoothness, 4U is a sidegrade of which I would even say EA500 does it slightly better

This is out of topic but I got the MP145 recently and I'd like to thank you for your recommendations and your answering to my questions regarding this iem. The slightly recessed mid and treble are able to eliminate the piercing issue I had with the OG Zetian, which allows me to listen to it for a long time without fatiguing. The interchangeable filter makes it even more versatile. This set also allows me to understand what high technicality sounds like. I'd like to ask is the VE Abigail Pro enough to drive it to its full potential? If not, what would you recommend that's also portable?

@donglemadness Ай бұрын

Full potential of MP145 is realized when you scale it with more power, that is the nature of magnetic planars (not just MP145). Abigail Pro, while may appear good enough to drive MP145, you will be pleasantly surprised how much better it will perform with something like EPZ TP50 (in BAL Mode) or AKLIAM PD5/EPZ TP30/Simgot DEW4X etc, all those 4VRMS dongles will bring the best of MP145. My suggestion is, save up a bit more and get those dongles

@lyh01 Ай бұрын

@@donglemadness Thanks for the recommendations. I prefer warm sound, any of those that I should get/avoid because of this? Edit: I watched your reviews and have a question. Why TP30 and Dawn Pro have the same power rating when based on the spec list, with 4.4mm, one has 270mW and another has 120mW?

@donglemadness Ай бұрын

@@lyh01 I don't do measurements, I just observe how well they drive 300 Ohm headphones and gauge the prowess from that standpoint, real life test always yields actual results and both DAWN Pro and TP30 exhibited similar power levels with loudness and sound authority

Thank you Andy. I'm asking to get your opinion. I use Crinacle Zero red, but the nozzles that go into the ear are a little long and can cause discomfort. Would it make sense for me to switch to this?

@donglemadness Ай бұрын

My pleasure. I don't have Crinacle Zero Red with me now, so I would not know how long or big the nozzle is. But I can tell you that 4U has 5.5mm diameter nozzle with 5.5mm length, try to compare it in measurements to your Crinacle Zero Red and see if it is smaller or bigger

Is the mid range, vocal tonality and details retrieval of Tanjim 4U comparable to EA500LM?

@donglemadness 9 күн бұрын

Details wise, 4U can be more analytical if you put it to Natural or Monitoring mode. Tonality I would say that 4U in Natural sounds flatter and less colored, EA500LM denser with Mids (mild coloration). But you have to take into account, 4U is highly tuneable with the Pop settings bringing the Mids a bit forward

To help you out, it would be useful to know what sort of sound you like? what sort of music you listen to? those IEMs you mentioned are all excellent performers, but ultimately it boils down to taste and preferences as they are tuned differently

Does this really sound similar to the Origin in natural mode? I love Origin and demo it in the store. Love it, but it is too expensive. If this 4U could actually resemble 90% of the sounds of the Origin, i would snatch it immediately.

@donglemadness Ай бұрын

Yes is does! 90% of Origin sound and you can even go flatter if you want to with Monitoring. My advise is to invest also in a good copper cable and then you literally negate the need to get Origin
