Great review as usual! Do you have Hype 4 to compare?
@jordanng54286 ай бұрын
Oh right.. H4. H4 mids is lusher, richer and bass is thicker too. But speed of bass is really slow, lots of decay (if u like those). Vocal also more forward than Supermix4 too. And timbre is much nicer. Butttt.. Supermix 4 has wayyyyy better texhnicalities than H4. Detail retrieval is better, stage is better, and bit more sparkle at treble too (but not harsh to me)

I prefer hype 4, but the sm4 is an outstanding value.

For the reason that you show your face and that you actually tried on the IEM (which most reviewers don’t) you deserve a like and a subscribe! Please keep trying them on and showing how it fits, this is a little detail that sets you apart!

I'm excited to see how it compares with the Quintet.
@jordanng54286 ай бұрын
This is warmer and Quintet is even more technical. Both has timbre issue. XD
@zeissiez6 ай бұрын
I had these. They are technical monsters easily justifiable at double or triple the selling price, while not shrill sounding at all. The only drawback for my personal taste is the Harmon mid-bass tuck. Could be a no-brainer for fans of Harmon tuning.

I've heard some say the bass attack is too fast. Can you elaborate on why this can be bad? Isn't a slower bass just boomy and eats into other frequencies?
@jordanng54286 ай бұрын
Haha.. i dont think is bad. In fact i like it this way. It will feel cleaner and bass will feel more satisfying to listen (to me). In contary, thieaudio stuff bass are mostly sloooow.

What amp/dac you are using? And also can you please try to plug these to iphone/mac directly with maybe a apple dongle and let me know if the sound quality is same or not? Beacuse I heard that due to output impedence it needs a dac/amp otherwise the sound is not that good.
@Hijynx876 ай бұрын
Yeah it's highly affected by source, I'd assume cables as well.

I never try phone though.. this is need bit of power. I was using Lotoo Paw Gold Touch. My amp sent back for warranty.

How does this compare to the s08 and s12 2024?
@jordanng542822 күн бұрын
@jondandavekinanahan7488 S08 just warm and somewhat wanted to sound like a DD, making the advantage of planar not obvios. S4 and S12 2024 are both very decent set. S12 2024 might be slightly less aggressive than the S4. But S4 have a nicer midrange.

i wonder how does it compare with origin, and the higher priced alpha RA?
@jordanng54286 ай бұрын
Ra has more bass, smoother mids but technicalities wise, i afraid S4 might be same level with RA or even slightly better than Ra. But Ra excel in timbre, smoothness and liquidity.
