These surprised me... 5 IEMs compared

[@Patife_PT]

There must be something wrong with your Supermix 4 set. I can drive them from pretty much anything. (smartphone, Xbox controller, macbook) They sound much louder than my Truthear Zero's and my HD 560's, i always have to turn the volume down when I switch to the supermix 4.

[@jameslilley1705]

My supermix 4 set sounded similar to his description until I upped the gain on my amp. Then they became a new animal. Crystal clear, good audio positioning in Immortals of Aveum, and the soundstage is great for the price.

[@xZondor]

How are these IEM's that you reviewed gonna behave in a less "sound crowded" game like PUBG or Apex? Did you get a chance to try any of them ?

[@seanryu5214]

i heard the supermix 4 were very source dependent. a low output impedance dac was recommended. Heard an apple dongle worked perfectly fine plugged into usb c.

[@adamalward3450]

For folks who are coming from OTE headsets, what would be a decent pair to TRY these out and see if they're comfortable for them?

[@mr.miyagi4255]

which one is a really good iem ? i dont have elgato or wavelink.

[@Nicotine_Rosberg]

Art, curious if you’re getting your hands on the ‘Roland bridge cast one’ soon. Curious to see how it would work with some iem’s and your tune. I think it drops on the 12th.

[@jggg31]

All of these are 2 Pin connector iems. If they only have the 4.4mm version of an iem, we can swap the 4.4mm 2pin cable with a 3.5mm 2pin cable right?

[@captmos]

Yes they are 2pin connector . I ordered the 4.4mm shozy p20, cause the 3.5mm is sold out !

[@HadenPeon]

@@HadenPeon I believe you can!

[@captmos]

@HadenPeon you should be able to do it ! Just check the specs of the iems to be sure . There are some with different connection types ! But the most are with two pin connectors! I have the fudu verse 1 and the crinacle zero and I am using the arts suggestion cable. I just ordered the shozy p20 with 4.4mm input and with two pin connectors. I will use it too with arts suggestion cable !

Can you do a video for the best audio setting on Xbox Dolby eq for warzone or give a video to look at please

[@jeffbones2802]

Bro don’t even waste your time with Dolby. I’m also on Xbox and played around with the Eq settings for 2 months and couldn’t get anything to sound right. Everything was either blasting my ear drums or too quiet. The best I have found was cinematic audio in game with the flex perk. Crank your game volume up almost to the max and voice volume down as low as you can while still being able to chat with friends you are playing with. It will dull some of the unnecessary noise like air strikes and explosions and make footstep audio easier to make out. Hope this helps! Good luck trying to get any help with console audio on KZbin. Nobody on PC gives a darn about console audio. Art is War only benefits them while we are still struggling to hear someone 5 feet away. These guys can pin point footstep audio from across the map lol.

[@SamTaylor-fs7gn]

Hi Art, Will there be an update to the files for HeSuVi for some of the new IEMS you have tested?

[@rebellionx420]

I just got the KZ-ZS10 Pro X IEMs and I don't see a need to spend $100+ on IEMs when the sound is already miles better than standard headphones

[@MusicLivesInYou25]

Opinion on the KZ ZS12 Pro X?

[@Hijynx87]

Supermix 4 is very source pick, it's only 7ohms so ideally you want something with really low output impedance.

[@slothnation6646]

@ArtisWar can i plug iems right into my goxlr mini or should i get an amp and dac? I am also going to invest in some higher quality headphone later.

@ArtIsWar Can we buy the 4.4mm version of the Shozy P20s? I have the Astro A40 Dac that I plug my iems into. On amazon, they have a 4.4 to 3.5mm adapter? Is it cool for us to get the 4.4mm ones?

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?

[@kibi.mp4]

Hey Art, do you have a recommendation for an audio interface to use for the IEMs?

[@tylerfrench4996]

Love your in depth IEM reviews Art but I couldn’t disagree more about the Supermix 4. These have been nothing short of amazing for warzone, especially for the price point. They easily compete with IEM’s twice the price.

[@hectaaa7403]

Yeah his set must be messed up.

[@mexabeard4497]

I bought them, tried them for 2-3 months and did not like them. I had better 3D imaging with my previous 60 buck IEMs. Not saying they are bad but sometimes I lost that “he’s coming from this or that side” with them. Good but inconsistent. Not sure why. But at least that was my take using them.

[@HadenPeon]

Man i ordered these so im really hoping this is true. Ive literally only heard amazing things about the supermix 4's

[@ArtisWar]

Tier list, link in the description

[@olternaut]

@@ArtisWar I'm now targeting the Aretes as something superior to the Orchestra Lites. The large casing and it not being vented has always bothered me. So to test IEMs I got the Antlion Duos just to see if IEMs were for me. I think they are. But the Duos seem to get overwhelmed easy in game because the audio cuts out often when lots of action is happening. I'm assuming it's because the Duos aren't very good for gaming. Instead of the Orchestra Lites I think I will get the Aretes for my birthday.....when they come back in stock.

Forget the affiliate link wheres the discount code

[@NeonMako]

Centre (and rear) image on the SuperMix 4 is iffy at best, and the bass is present but just not 'clear'. However it's not hard to drive at all. It actually has a rather low impedance (just 7.2 ohms) compared to most IEMs. I am not a fan of the SM4 and consider it super overrated, (I actually think the EM6L is notably better for gaming, though getting correct fit is harder on that) but it sounds like you got a bad set and should probably try a second pair. But then I'm a bit weird and for me the Orchestra Lite beats even the Arete for imaging and gaming use, which is not how most people experience them. Also, some 'budget' sets for you for gaming use to review - TRN VX Pro+, Fiio JH5, Arrti T10. The VX Pro+ in particular is being reported as being genuinely 'holographic' with the imaging, despite being rather cheap and a little spicy in the treble from the very few reviews out there so far.

The very rare occasion I stop by this channel there is always misinformation. The Supermix 4 has a very low impedence and high sensativity and DOES NOT need significant power to drive.
