Excellent review as always. This is the most detailed review of the EA1000 that I have watched or read. Everyone else just shilled the EA1000 saying it was greatest IEM available. Thanks for the honesty and pointing out the flaws while still remaining mostly positive. I might pick these up at some point.
I'm wary of switching and or nozels to be honest. Either something works or not as is in my opinion and I'm not going to spend 200 on something with them. I might be totally wrong but that's my opinion. Thanks for the review. Great as always!
Filters and switches aren't my favorite design. I'd rather the manufacturers pick a tuning and go with it. If a user wants to tweak with different filters, so be it. But I understand where you're coming from. Thanks for the comment.
Different ear tips (silicon, foam, etc) affect audio - and so nozzles could possibly be a benefit to dial things in. I'm interested - wondering once you find that right sound, you will never change them - or if you want one sound for music and one sound for playing in a band on stage another.
I've had many sets with nozzles, going way back to the LZ A4 which was one of the first sets to do it with multiple sound combos. I've had the Trinity Audio Delta (7 nozzles). IMR OZAR (multiple nozzles and combos). FIIO FD5 (2 nozzles). RHA T20 (2 nozzles). AKG N40 (2 or 3, can't remember). BGVP DMG (3 nozzles). There's absolutely no reason to be wary. It's not a case of a certain nozzle or combo sounds right and others might not. The manufacturer isn't hedging its bets by offering multiple attempts for the buyer to like the sound. What you normally get are either very subtle or quite big changes to bass response or treble extension. They can be a lot of fun. Some models are better than others at it. For example, the FIIO FD5 bass filter gave a much fuller bass, while the balanced filter was more open and airy. But the sound wasn't miles apart. The IMR OZAR is my favourite set to this day and I've had nearly 150 earphones. Ranging from budget to £400. It has multiple combos as it provides 8 x acoustic bass filters and 6 upper filters. These can tailor the bass depth and treble extension, giving many different changes, without losing it's general overall sound signature. Sometimes tho it doesn't really work. The BGVP DMG nozzles were a bit more extreme so the bassier one made it too thick as it already had quite a powerful bass. So again, they're definitely not singing that should put someone off an IEM.
I totally understand. I'm not a fan of swappable filters and tuning switches. I'd prefer that the manufacturer pick a tuning and sell it and if a user wants to tweak it so be it.
I’m glad I got the dunu falcon ultra instead. They are very close, but the falcon ultra seems to edge it out a little being more refined. I love my em6l though, fantastic set.
If earphone was a beauty pageant simgot will win it every time.😅They surely do know how to craft a beauty or two.This metallic aspect of simgot tuning is the reason l stay away from them,can't stand anything metallic anymore.Natural,organic,full vocal and instrumental is my number priority in earphones now,even more than detail retrieval..That is why l think dunu and fiio,maybe bqeyz are my only chifi options at the moment...Thank you.
I have tried MoonDrop Blessing 3 and Kato offline. I prefer the bass of Kato,Blessing 3 bass Too much gives me a headache and discomfort but Blessing 3 in other aspects. Due to price and takes 10-12 hours to wearconsiderations, I prefer SIMGOT EA1000, If it were non-metal, it would be perfect for me What I want to ask is, among the many headphones you have heard, are there any that have a cavity made entirely of resin iem, but the tuning are the same as those of the SIMGOT EA1000,price best Under 400 USD?
Finally, an objective critique that is accurate and corroborates my testing results. Every channel has eulogized and showered superlatives on its overall performance. I vehemently disagree. The EA1000 is a harmon (variable degree based on the nozzle) calibrated bright tuning with abnormal shout and sibilance. Not recommended.
Once you mod the black nozzle- put 500 mesh filter on it, and use h570 tips, and LC7 cable, it becomes way better. Addresses most of the problem things you have mentioned. It now graphs similar to Hype 4, or Kato.

My pleasure, you're welcome. Glad you found the video helpful. Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.
Excited to hear your opinion on the Tanchjim Origins!
And another reason to keep my Kato. Great review, sir! Thank you!
Totally understand 💯
nice! I've been waiting for your impressions on this. thanks for the review
My pleasure, you're welcome
As always thanks for the real and honest review.
You're welcome.
Everyone is shilling it. You gave excellent review
Honesty is the best policy!
I would take the EA1000 over the Kato any day of the week. Everybody hears things differently though. My ears are tuned for the EA1000 I guess.
Glad you enjoy the EA1000. It's a good little IEM.

I don't swap tips and filters once I've settled on what one sounds the best to my ears. I do test the filters and tips for review purposes though.

Interesting, I've not heard either the Falcon Ultra or EM6L.
I also chose Dunu FU over performer 5... I can hear the differences as it burns in...
Cool
Keep 'em coming, David!
God Bless You, ALWAYS!!
Will do! Thanks 🙏

Thanks for the impressions.

JQ 4U Pro
Tanchjim Kara
Curious to hear what you ended up getting, as I'm in the same boat!
Please review simgot ea500lm
It's on the schedule along with 35 other products.
Simgot Supermix 4 next?
If one is provided or the funds become available I'll be glad to listen and review.
Kiwi ears quintet or the ea1000?
I would lean Quintet as it is more pleasureable to listen to.
👍

Still very much shouty
Yes, depending on filter, music and source they can be shouty.
