Review OF The SIMGOT EW100P

Introduction

My second time reviewing a Simgot product is this one. The highly famous IEM from the Chinese business SIMGOT, named the EA500, was the first IEM I examined from SIMGOT, and I was satisfied with its performance. SIMGOT specialises in developing electroacoustic goods. I wonder if their most recent model, the EW100P, is capable of doing the same. Another one of their most recent products, the EW100P, marks SIMGOT's entry into the low-cost IEM market. Let me make a few things clear out before we continue.

https://preview.redd.it/m3n12ltdak2b1.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4448893b08682cc74973c410c190141e0028039a

Disclaimer

*Since this unit tour was organised by the kindly people at Linsoul, I am grateful to them. And as I've said in all of my evaluations, the same is true for this one: all of the concepts I've expressed below are entirely my own, original ideas that haven't been influenced by anyone else. If interested, go to this link.
*I am not associated with the connection, and I receive no financial assistance from anyone.
*For the remainder of the review, I will refer to these IEMs as "EW100P."
*I am using different Ear-tips for convenience and better versatility.
*Finally, I will only evaluate the EW100P based on their performance, even though I will explain how it feels and seems physically and aesthetically.

Specification

The EW100P is a single 10mm dynamic driver in-ear monitor with a dual LCP diaphragm. It is stated that the interior of the shell, the placement of the driver, and the interior cavity are all designed to deliver precise imaging and an accurate soundstage. While the faceplate has an aluminium plate made of the H-2016PC aluminium alloy, the majority of the shell is made of plastic. The sleek, lightweight shells are comfortable to wear and fit better with ear-tips from AZLA and Spin Fit. In terms of the cable's make-up, it is a detachable, woven copper cable shielded with silver foil, with 2 pin connections on one end and an L-shaped 3.5mm termination plug on the other. The package also includes eartips in three different sizes. The sensitivity is 122dB, and the impedance is 32 Ohms, according to the technical specifications. The total harmonic distortion is less than 1%, and the frequency response ranges from 5Hz to 45kHz.

Sound

Because of its tuning and specification, the EW100P is actually a close relative of the TangZu Wan'er S.G., Moondrop CHU, and Salnotes Zero. The EW100P has received a similar response to other sets in this price range. Although there are differences between the sound impressions when heard thoroughly, the EW100P follows the same balanced sound signature as the Zero Wan'er and the CHU. To be more precise, the CHU response sounds less balanced and more neutral with a sub bass boost. The EW100P's response astounds me because it differs from others in this price range. In addition, I believe the sound is presented more tonally rather than being more technically with the notes. Others either demonstrate tonally rich performances that lack the technicalities, which results in sounding a little dull, or they sacrifice tonality for details and annoyances in an effort to surprise an audiophile with the response. Let's investigate the sound further while contrasting it with its peers.

https://preview.redd.it/p1mu79zeak2b1.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f61d2a374aa1aae04c75076bca3fc7b41c8afc1

Treble

The EW100P competes effectively with IEMs in this price range like the Zero or CHU without focusing on sounding particularly bright or finely detailed in order to highlight the nuances made in this region. The energy also satisfies the response and elicits enough information to maintain the engagement while preventing any offensive characteristics. If I were to compare this response, the only one that comes to mind is the Wan'er S.G., which sounded similar but had more energy in the lower frequencies and less air in the higher ones. In contrast, the EW100P sounds as though it has more energy in the lower frequencies and less air in the higher ones, which, in my opinion, makes it sound more open than the Wan'er. The instruments have more rounded and smooth notes, which make it sound lush and clean, and the upper treble is nicely extended, with the vocals sounding complete. Although less thorough than the CHU or Zero, the response is adequate. The EW100P can handle the lean notes that CHU brings. The EW100P sounds richer, but I think the Zero sounds lighter and airier and has a few more details. The notes of the vocals and instruments have more clarity and detail and are presented forward in the mix, making the lower treble sound almost identical to the Zero but more tonally balanced. If I were to compare it to Zero, I'd say it sounds more natural. Overall, the treble response has a lush, clean, and smooth sound.

Mid Range

As it sounds most forward in the mix, particularly in the upper mid range, the mid range is the main focus of the response. The lower treble's energy potential is represented by its energy resilience. This range's response is nearly identical to the Zero's, but it has a richer tonal range. Although it doesn't have as many details as the CHU, the mid range sounds superior to the Wan'er. The vocals come across as vibrant and energetic in the upper mid range, and the instruments support them with a smooth response. This range's good energy brings out the best in both the vocals and the instruments. Even though I occasionally hear some particularly offensive female vocals—they don't happen very often, though—I still think the response has less heat than the Zero or CHU. Since it sounds thicker and denser and has better note weight, the lower mid range is superior to the Zero. When compared to the Wan'er, the vocals and instruments sound dull, dense, but still clean. Bass guitar, for example, has a rich, organic sound. The smooth energy flow between the lower and upper mid range produces a sound that is more melodic than analytical. Overall, the mid range responds melodically, energetically, and naturally.

Bass

It doesn't mean that the response from the EW100P sounds less engaging, but I prefer the Wan'er's response because the bass is presented more boomily and resolves more quickly. The Wan'er and CHU are comparable in terms of bass and mid bass balance, but the Wan'er's boomy presentation gives it a slightly uneven sound. In fact, the response is much better than the CHU or the Zero. The EW100P excels in this area because it has good bass response control, allowing punches and slams to come out clearly and resolve quickly. Although the bass is powerful and captivating enough, it doesn't elicit any other responses or upset the harmony between the regions. The sub bass region is where the emphasis is most prominent; it extends deep and offers a supple amount of sensation in terms of rumble characteristics. The puches hit particularly hard when listening to bass-heavy tracks. Though it isn't the case for me, the Wan'er primarily amplifies the bass to the point where it can overpower other speakers. The EW100P, however, doesn't elicit the same cunning response. Due to the impactful slams and ample boomy bass exposure, the mid bass has a strong presence and sounds fantastic as well. This results in a bass that is more full-bodied. Although the lower mid range is affected by the mid bass leak, the mix is not bloated or muddy as a result. Mid bass is what the EW100P lacks compared to the CHU and the Zero in their response. The Bass region's response is generally captivating, punchy, and slamming.

Technical Performance

When it comes to technical performance, I typically do not notice many differences between IEMs priced at 20 USD or less. primarily because I prefer the sound's stronger tonal focus. The EW100P produces sound more effectively from a tonal standpoint, but in terms of technical performance, it is comparable to other IEMs in this price range. However, I would maintain it in a position higher than the Wan'er.

https://preview.redd.it/4b0xwtnfak2b1.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=072446c30d701d9603b0afdc0eec949a20e5df70

Soundstage, Sound Imaging & Separation

The imaging could be sharper but it is cleaner than anticipated. The stage is sufficiently present and is wide enough to sound spacious. Although the distinction between the elements is good, it could have been clearer. The CHU is the only organisation that excels in these areas, but if it were to compete, Zero would have put up a valiant fight.

Speed & Resolution

The EW100P's resolution is comparable to that of other IEMs, but the Zero and the CHU make the details more approachable. The EW100P surprises me with its speed, as the notes attack and decay quickly and more effectively than I had anticipated.

Sound Impressions

Sources

Tempotec V6 - The treble became more sophisticated with details and clarity as you listened to the V6, and the sound was more detailed and approachable. While the bass felt more in control, the midrange sounded more sorted. The imaging and resolution were the only aspects of the technical performance that I noticed improving, resulting in a clearer response. This pair's response is the one I favour.

https://preview.redd.it/h9y1pk4gak2b1.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1fabfbaa8a30a252378d6198b00d139efb175ead

iFi Hipdac - As you are hearing the V6, While the upper midrange and lower treble became more forward and energetic, sibilance was also introduced, the sound became duller in the upper treble. The bass became more pronounced, particularly in the mid bass, and the pair sounding more enjoyable. There were no changes to the technical performance other than the stage becoming smaller. This pairing doesn't appeal to me as much, in my opinion.

Conclusion

I won't outright claim that these are superior to other IEMs in this price range, particularly those I highlighted in this review, but I can definitely hear that they add something unique to the sound landscape. Even after listening to music for a long time, the sound is so soothing and attractive that you won't feel fatigued. I can recommend these IEMs to everyone because of the seamless presentation; you won't be anything but surprised by them.

2023.05.28 12:38 Remarkable_Ask2752 ifi zen can to upgrade dragonfly red

I'm looking to upgrade my setup with some extra features/sound quality. Currently I have dragonfly red driving dt770-80/hd599/focal sphear s. I'd like to add a physical volume knob (preferably analogue), some eq/bass boost and crossfeed features.
Ifi zen line of products seems to offer exactly what I want at a reasonable price. The first idea was to sell dragonfly and buy zen air dac or zen dac v2. But reading through forums, I got the impression that zen can sounds better than these 2, plus it has the crossfeed/3d feature (not a must, but nice to have).
So my question is would it be worth to pair dragonfly red with zen can (which is amp only), or just go with air dac/dac v2 that have everything included. So my optins are:
  1. sell dragonfly - buy air dac
  2. sell dragonfly - buy dac v2
  3. add zen can (amp only) after dragonfly
  4. something else
I don't care for balanced connection, and while I do care about sound quality, something like a few % improvement that is barely audible or might even be pure placebo is not worth spending significantly more money for me.
And the links to mentioned products, to avoid any confusion.

2023.05.28 09:26 Diefuku Punchy midbass, V shaped closed back under $600

Looking for a closed back headphone under $600 that has most importantly a very full and punchy mid bass but also with a pretty sparkly and airy treble. That's really my only preference, I have headphones that cover most other things but would like a closed back for laying back and enjoying music with more of a common consumer tuning but still with detail and clarity. As a starting point I looked a little bit at the Fostex TR-X00, but there are a few different variations and I'm not sure which one would be best for me. If someone could point me towards a punchy and fun sounding closed back with plenty of mid bass that would be great!
Also, I know that punchy does not mean a forward mid bass, but something with both would be nice, like an Elex with a mid bass boost or something along those lines.

2023.05.28 00:05 NewGamePlusMinus Meal Buff Glitch- Dupe Meal Buffs onto Roasted Food, then stack more of that item to duplicate the Buff onto even more Roasted Food.

EDIT: I had to repost to clarify in the title why this is so Valuable.
Pretty sure this still works on 1.1.2. If not, let me know. Also, this glitch goes best with a 30 minute buff, so you'll need at least one dragon horn to get the best benefits- if you don't have one or don't want to farm one you can add whatever else might fit into the recipe for a decreased time.
  1. Cook 4 of a food item and a Dragon Horn that you want timed effects from (Speed, Defense, Attack, Glow, etc.). If you don't have a Dragon Horn, don't worry- you can use other materials in your recipe, it just won't give you a 30 minute buff like the dragon horn would.
  2. Eat or Sell your roasted food items. You'll see why in a minute.
  3. DO NOT sort your meals- Go to a food vendor who sells Roasted Items (The bazaar north east of the gerudo village is the one I use as it's the only one I remember)
  4. Go into your Meals Menu, scroll to the bottom, eat the food you just cooked. Again, do not sort your Meals before hand because it has to be in your very last item slot.
  5. Buy a Roasted Item (Fish, Meat, Etc.). The reason why you have to eat or sell your roasted foods is because the item you purchase also has to end up in the very last slot of your meals menu. If you didn't, the food will stack on a previous stack and won't receive the buff.
  6. Go back into your Meal Menu and scroll to the bottom and check the new item- It should have the effects of the meal you just ate on it.
  7. Either buy more of that same roasted item, or, make some with what you have in your inventory by throwing it on the fire next to the vendor or making a fire/torching it with what you have in your inventory to burn things. For example, I bought a roasted bass and ended up with a 30 minute speed boost on the roasted bass I bought.
  8. Notice that when you pick up the food you roasted, it goes directly into the Buffed food stack- I cooked 15 more Bass and ended up with 16 Roasted Bass with 30 Minute Speed Boosts.
And that's it. It's a lengthy breakdown but you can do this incredibly fast and efficiently. Cook a Meal, Eat the Buff without Resorting, Buy a roasted item, Make or Buy more of the roasted item to increase the stack.

2023.05.27 23:32 FuckFuckShitBitch Which speaker glasses have the strongest and most overpowering bass?

I’m looking for some sunglasses with built in speakers, and to show what kind of sound I like I own liberty 3 pro with a boosted treble and bass eq, and crusher evos.

2023.05.27 22:01 Lumpy-Ostrich6913 I dropped my Skullcandy crusher evos

I dropped my Evos today and ever since then artificial bass keeps repeating over and over on the right ear in the background of my songs and keeps repeating for about 5 seconds when I pause/ stop the music I’ve tried just slapping them again but I can’t stop it, when I’m not wearing them they sound like boosted muffled music and the power off voices is boosted and muffled too. Just wondering if anyone knows about this and if I can save them or if I’ll need to check my warranty and get new ones

2023.05.27 20:26 SillyAd9410 A Semi-Collaborative Pop Culture TL #10

YOU decide what events should change in the world of pop culture, be it real or ASB (future movie gets shown in the past, an actor does/doesn't die, alternate casting choices, unmade media possibly getting made, media is rewritten, a change in the box office or something new entirely)!
I document what happens in a current timeline of Earth!
We all have fun!
CURRENT TIMELINE:
1818: Mary Shelley's The Modern Prometheus, a novel in which scientist Henry Frankenstein creates a sapient creature named Prometheus is made. Prometheus becomes a stalwart of the monster genre.

Sarah Michelle Gellar dies in a kayaking incident days before the release of her only film Clueless. This would cause Clueless to become the highest grossing film of the year and become known as one of the best teen films. It enters the National Film Registry in 2005. Bad Boys, a film released the same day as Clueless, would become the 6th highest grossing film of the year despite mixed reviews.
Spotify, a humble music downloading site, releases. In 1997, it would change into a music streaming site, and would often show ads for the latest in music.
Selena Quintalla survives being shot. Jennifer Lopez wanes in popularity.
1996: The Nintendo 64DD comes out in a partnership with Phillips, revolutionising the console industry by introducing CD memory, rising it above the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. One of the top best selling games would be Super Mario 64 2, the sequel to Super Mario 64. The 64DD would serve as motivation for Sega to complete Sonic X-Treme by 1997, which becomes a huge hit.

This causes a scandal that briefly kills her good reputation, and gets her blacklisted in Hollywood (for a while). In this alternate history, Simon Monjack is put in prison for attempting murder on Brittany Murphy, but here, is killed by a crazed cellmate whilst serving time (said crazed cellmate also happens to be a fan of Brittany Murphy).

She co-starred in the series alongside Hayden Christensen, Ewan McGregor, and Samuel L. Jackson. While the then 56-57 year old Jackson at least got to have a successful career in Hollywood (due to being a Christopher Nolan regular), Christensen and McGregor were rejected by the industry; Christensen started an indie rock band while McGregor then went on to become a successful UFC fighter, but would then become very scandalous as he suffers from numerous arrests and an intense drug addiction. McGregor would then unfortunately die young from a drug overdose on December 7, 2008. Going back to Portman, she would become an indie darling in independent cinema, however her career would be cut short when she would die in a car crash on July 19, 2009, just one month and ten days after her 28th birthday.

In December 2009, Brittany Murphy is then offered the lead role in Darren Aronofsky's upcoming psychological horror film "Black Swan", about a troubled ballerina. The film would co-star Melanie Lynskey as the troubled ballerina's rival, and like in our world, Winona Ryder, Barbara Hershey, and Vincent Cassel. The film released in December 2010 (like in our world), to rave reviews, with critics calling it Brittany Murphy's finest appearance yet. Murphy would then take home the Best Actress Oscar as well as the Best Dramatic Performance in a Movie Golden Globe for her performance in the film in 2011. Murphy would then continue her acting career following a big career boost, as well as her singing/musical career at the same time. In fact, she releases a fairly successful debut album in March 2011 simply called "Brittany", to positive reviews. It would then become the best selling musical album of the year, even winning her a Grammy in 2012.

2012: Pixar's Newt, a film that came due to the cancellation of Wreck-It Ralph (some claim due to the problems of getting permission from game companies) is released and barely breaks even. It would start a dark age for Pixar, which would continue with Brave and Cars 2.

2013: Doug Walker leaves Channel Awesome, leaving Stevey Shark to be the new star. Markiplier, MrEnter, and MatPat would later join Channel Awesome among others.

2023.05.27 16:03 HCIJ Audio going through my not-sony headphones from PS5 sounds bad, flat (e.g very little bass)

So in some games, at least in Returnal there are options like for example bass boost. But in most games there isn’t so it sounds really flat and some sounds are harsh. I have my headphones connected to the dualsense, so just wanted to ask if buying an jack-to-usb adapter will work or is there no resolution for that

2023.05.27 15:32 termin29 What does bass boost affect?

Not sure If there's a better sub for this, but what exactly does bass boost do? Does it amplify instruments like double basses and cellos, or drums?

Need help fixing a stacked Pot on my Site V7
Last night at a gig a door closed whilst I was caught up talking to thw organiser that I was standing next to and swiped what I think is the potentiometer shaft clean off my bass. For record this is the mid frequency cut/boost and mid range selector on a sire V7. Is there any easy way to repair this without having to buy a replacement pot or soldering? For the record I have not contacted Sire support yet but this was a second hand instrument so I'm not sure about any warranties. Not sure if this would be the correct subreddit to use. Thanks for any help.

2023.05.27 12:28 Des1177 LETSHUOER x GIZAUDIO Galileo Impressions!

Hi everyone! I recently received my LETSHUOER x GIZAUDIO Galileo that I have purchased previously! I have been using them for more than a week and I love them a lot! Below is a short impression of the Galileo:

Tonality: It is slightly bass boosted but still very neutral overall
Bass: Bass is quite tame and a little lacking in depth and punchy, but the slam is decent.
Midrange: Beautifully done and natural. Vocals are the true star of the show, which comes across as forward and lively without being too aggressive.
Treble: Smooth with decent lower and mid treble but lacking a little bit in the upper treble which causes a lack of airiness. Overall, not harsh to me at all.
Technicalities: Overall, it is decent but not mind blowing. Not bad either.

If you are looking for a midrange and vocal focused set, I think this is fairly suitable. However, this may not be for everyone as it lacks excitement and fun.
Please take this impression if only a grain of salt and try it out first if possible.
Thank you for reading!

2023.05.27 00:48 CryptographerOdd299 Windows Audio Driver Beamforming

Windows Audio Driver Beamforming
Dear Community,
I am seeking advice regarding the configuration of the Windows Standard Audio Driver to support various microphone filters provided by Windows. I believe this could potentially involve modifying settings in the Windows Registry.

Specifically, I am looking for guidance on the following:

  1. How can I configure the system so that my microphone array is recognized as a bona fide microphone array by the Windows Standard Audio Driver?

  1. Is there a way to enable all of the microphone effects provided by Microsoft within this driver?

Any suggestions, tips, or comprehensive walkthroughs regarding these modifications would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if any additional information is required to better assist me.


Those options have to be activated. Are they available in windows11 at all?

YOU decide what events should change in the world of pop culture, be it real or ASB (future movie gets shown in the past, an actor does/doesn't die, alternate casting choices, unmade media possibly getting made, media is rewritten, a change in the box office or something new entirely)!
I document what happens in a current timeline of Earth!
We all have fun!

Murphy would then take home the Best Actress Oscar as well as the Best Dramatic Performance in a Movie Golden Globe for her performance in the film in 2011. Murphy would then continue her acting career following a big career boost, as well as her singing/musical career at the same time.

It would then become the best selling musical album of the year, even winning her a Grammy in 2012.
