Hey, do you think you can add the PB5 with your comparison to C9ii? Thanks!
@alfredhutomoАй бұрын
Hmmm looks really cool, might wanna get this but to be honest Tsuranagi v2 already beats the C9ii in pure staging. Interested to pair this with a headphone not with an IEM. Go for a desktop amp or this EA4?
@ZPProductionsАй бұрын
I think the EA4 will likely beat the tsuranagi II for staging but if it’s absolute seperation maybe the tsuranagi may come out ahead. I compared the HM1 with the EA4. Soundstage is definitely wider than the HM1 and the whole positioning and instrument spread is just really good on EA4. Where HM1 beats the EA4 is the absolute separation and dynamics. This is using HEK Unveiled.

Thoughts vs Mass Kobo 475?
@ZPProductions11 күн бұрын
I think when it comes to open sounding and power the ea4 is better. But if you want more of a airy and light smooth feel type, the 475 is a touch ahead

Are you able to replace the 18650 batteries ourselves?

Need to send back to LP. Because the batteries need to be cherry picked to match the requirements

@@fastsnail3568yeah.. pricing and battery replacement are the two main concerns. Otherwise, EA4 is a no-brainer for transportable headphones amp.
@ZPProductionsАй бұрын
Im of the opinion it doesnt matter. Its standard 18650. The question is do you believe in the cherry pick or not. But the minimum is all battery must be replaced together as with most 18650 device to ensure similar state of battery and you will need to do some screwing around

I know you mentioned susvara, but have u tried pair them? How do they sound (with Susvara)?
@ZPProductionsАй бұрын
Sadly I dont own the susvara. It was a loaner unit. I only have the HEK Unveiled for Hifiman

@ZPProductions ah too bad. Really nice review. Was considering enleum this morning then your vid came out. Interesting
@ZPProductionsАй бұрын
Based on quite some test, i think we can expect a bigger sound and more dispersed mids with some enhancement to the air region with the EA4. I think for SUSVARA, the dispersed mids will be the only downside since the original susvara is slightly dispersed in mids sound compared to the newer unveiled and OG sus probably will benefit from the slightly more aggressive mids the enleum gives. But if its the newer unveiled, I am guessing the EA4 maybe better.

The C9II is likely to be 1k sgd (700 USD) cheaper than this. But I’m not sure if C9 to C9II is it an appreciable upgrade hmm.

@ZPProductions Not in my place. Did not see any Polish audio store to have EA4, at least for now, but with all the VAT, import fees, and shipping, IT will be closer to 50% more expensive to import than the c9II 😅

What you talking about? you need to add 5x the the volume setting to even get audible noise on the U12T. I own the N3Ultra which uses the real tube. I think this amp spanks it really hard while still having that warm smooth and big sound.
