Thie HYPE 4 V.S. Ziigaat Cincotres (worth the extra $140?)

The thumbnails are getting better, great job bro!! I sometimes watch your videos from 3 years ago and its really amazing how far you've come. I won't be coming around for a while since i f*cked up my college enterence exams, they're going to give me another chance in April and i have to make sure i ace it. All the best for your future buddy. Keep the music playing!

"I like the cheaper one better" is basically my motto and really should be for the hobby as well. Sometimes those expensive sets slam, but you can get 95% of the sound for 5% of the cost most of the time. Not all the time, just most of the time.

[@hellboybihac]

It's amazing to see how far this hobby has progressed. From early days where you had a handful of options to now where the selection of IEMs is so big that at times it feels overwhelming when you have to decide which one to get hahah

[@RealDaviii]

are you going to review the Doscinco? it supposed to be the more Basshead set of the new Ziigaat iems

[@JLa748]

I believe it is meant to be Cincotres but the print in the box had it wrong.

[@dalvarez]

Yes, you're right. It's in Spanish, so what's on the website is correct, I think. especially because of the name of the cheapest doscinco

[@datdatnewkid3045]

Weird naming Cincotres - 5, 3 Doscinco - 2, 5

[@mattdavis9601]

​@@datdatnewkid3045- It reminds me of General Motors era Saabs.

[@DavidHorth]

This price bracket of IEMs has developed so well after the last couple of years. I have a Tea 2 and a Hype 2 and I honestly couldn't hear a lot of difference between them or the Hype 4 when it came out. In fact it took me jumping up to a Performer 8 to notice any real difference in my library. The diminishing returns thing is soooo real.

[@nickorozco5268]

Thank you for the review! Just ordered the cincotres and excited to hear it

[@BadGuyGoodAudioReviews]

Sorry the Camera took a nap at 5min mark

[@soupistasty5]

I like this A vs B comparison - using the same mic for the frequency graphs, same tracks, same amps, etc. So very helpful for the review to have these variables ironed out, so to speak, so the differences can be more easily heard n' pointed out for us viewers. Many thanks HBB!

[@billpoyfair1346]

I’m excited by this one. Warm bass filled sound is my favorite tuning. Thanks for helping me make it easier to choose from the multitude of IEMs available.

[@antonristo1096]

I'm thinking about upgrading my Chopin to an IEM with a bit more mid-bass and air for better all-around listening. Would you recommend getting the Cincotres or saving up for something like a Monarch MKIII? How much of an upgrade would the Monarch MKIII, for example, be?

[@MrHappy1974]

Sounds like Ziigaat is killin it. Love to see quality at all price ranges

[@Tssukiii]

Thumbnail is goated 💀💪

[@BadGuyGoodAudioReviews]

[@ShawnMeister]

ZiiGaat is releasing quite a few decent sets for a new company, great to see some options in different price ranges. The fact that you worked with them on a collab tells me a great deal about them as a company. Have the Nuo, great for 20 bucks.

[@dya85621]

Great to hear that the cincotres is doing very well! Beeing nearly half the price compared to the hype 4, the cincotres looks incredibly amazing. Will definitely keep an eye out for this set, might go for it when there will be a small discount!

[@MovieMakerKid90]

Just finished the vid! Ngl hype 4 feels a bit overpriced when the cincotres can deliver the same quality at a lower price

[@savamon]

Thank you for comparing these too. Ziigaat just moved to the top of my list for my end of the year purchase

[@jacqn6706]

I had my eyes set on the Hype 4 as kind of my endgame iem but the hobby moves so fast that it seems like I can save me some money. Still a lot of money but also a lot of money will be saved. Thanks for bringing out these videos that really saves money.

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Love you HBB

[@tommyh6630]

Lol the fade out, comedy gold. Love to hear that companies are still making sets that punch above their weight class, making saving for a tip top tier real hard.

[@ChuckleNorris420]

I thought real hard about picking up the hype 4, decided against it and glad I did now, got the doscincos instead (shipped yesterday) would still be interested in seeing how they sound side by side with cincotres

[@scotteaton963]

Helpful comparison! I've had both these sets on the radar, and this helps move the needle on a decision.

[@fertech_bass]

Thank you for your direct and concise comparison. I was just waiting for it because I had considered purchasing the Hype 4. Now, I think Cincotres will be the buck-saving option!

[@weis324]

Ziigaat is starting to eat into thieaudio market share. And i fully agree with you. Driver quantity is a meme and crossover quantity matters more

[@dtdcampbell]

Didn’t realize it was a quick video and ending caught me off guard lol. Block out the drama and have a good weekend. Will be a good weekend for myself since the Hades will arrive tomorrow 😊

[@mattodio]

Nice to see and hear. Sometime feel like I miss out by not trying the pricier sets. Like to know that I'm not missing much sometimes

[@rubenviegas6358]

On the Linsoul website it is on a page identified as Cinocotres but when you go to the product page it self it appears as Cincotres!! Either way looks like a nice set…

[@DFisch-orange]

The more you mention the graph and how it cannot always be trusted, the more you make a valid point. When I decide to get more IEMs, I will check to see what your thoughts are before I make any purchase.

[@ryanbrickey843]

Love my Nuuo. Can't wait to hear more of theirs

[@MovieMakerKid90]

Drama’s a common thing in the internet tbh. Best not to join in and just enjoy in the stuff you’re interested in. Currently watching the next few parts of the vid!

[@sevaeron]

This video may end saving me some! Had the Hype4 shortlisted so this came out just in time

[@dilankalpa]

Which one is more bass-head friendly, Cincotres or Doscinco ?

[@burancms2718]

Doscinco

[@ucilzgamingacc8103]

Wow, thx for info HBB. I never thought that ziigat will go againts the hype this soon and win. I hope they will take on the monarch for the release, exciting time 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@christopherburner4753]

Ive got the hype 4 on the way. Looking forward to it

[@lordofhell]

We are in a point in this where individual parts' quality has greatly improved in such a way that it doesnt matter too much if the other IEM has 1 more driver too many. Quality over quantity.

[@cybershade69]

Thanks for the comparison. Have a great weekend. I can’t wait to see what Ziigaat does next.

[@roguegorilla8981]

I have the Doscincos and they are fucking amazing! I bought the hype 2 after and i immediately returned them

Sounds like I found my next iem! I was really interested in the hype 4, but this sounds like a better alternative. Thanks HBB!

[@RandomApe]

Nice $140 saved for anyone that was planning to get the Hype 4 👏

[@Tanner_SD]

What you have said in this video is exactly what I have been reading other people say on forums. That settles it, the Ziigaat CincoTres’ will be the next iem I get. I also realized that for me, it doesn’t make sense to look at the DosCinco, as I can very easily EQ the bass of the CincoTres to match or even go further than its counterpart. Plus, some reviews mention the treble being better in the CincoTres.

[@louisvdmerwe]

Great to see someone directly comparing such similar sets. Makes you think.

[@Black_Zeppelin_86]

I've been wanting to get the Hype 4 since before it dropped. Now I've changed my mind and I'll grab cincotres instead, thanks as always man!

[@aidanw6725]

[@geminyetf]

Number of drivers does not imply better sound quality. You have 15 dollar sets with 10+ BAs that sound like crap :D

Nice comparison, look like i need to make check out both of them. Look like ziigaat exceed it's price range. Awesome thumbnail! (am i mistaken that thieaudio and ziigaat are related??)

[@johnhayes8476]

I just got the doscinco. It’s such a banger! Love it!

[@byntkktrnn]

Can you add a few words about their goodness? Thank you.

[@moonsofjupiter]

Great vid and comparison. Once you get to 3 drivers you can fill the frequency spectrum very well. The Hype series two fails are 1)overpriced and 2) all tuned the same. I think your set of Cincotres has a bit more bass than other graphs i’ve seen that indicate more of a mid bass tuck (I want yours!). I ordered Ziigaat’s other new 5 driver set, the Doscincos and am waiting delivery next week. The Doscincos seem to have more bass and have been getting raves about being the best bass in its price range. We’ll see and I’m sure I’ll chime in.

[@SileDevil]

Just out of curiosity why donyt you like the Doscinco? some early reviews say they are endgame bass at sub 300$

[@SinjiKazama]

I have them and they're fantastic if you like quality bass. I was waiting for him to review them for weeks and when it became clear he won't (left them out of the 'best bass' iem video for some reason, leaving an obvious middle price gap that the Ziigaat could've filled) I took the chance. Bought them from Amazon for the return policy. I'm glad I did because these are my bass endgame set (coming from the Rosefinch and Legato's). They have quality and detailed sub and mid-bass with impact, you can sense the reverb very well without it sacrificing the mids and highs. It's baffling why he's so silent on the Doscincos.

[@SileDevil]

@@SinjiKazama Thank you sir! Can you do a quick comparison to Tangzu Fudu? they graph very similar and im afraid they will sound almost the same tuning wise. I ordered the Doscinco but im thinking to switch the order for the Cincotres for this main reason.

[@Ch1vers]

Doscinco are excellent in all characteristics for their price, but the magic bass just takes Doscinco to the top. Now, if I'm thinking about buying new iem, I'll ask how the bass is compared to Doscinco. In the meantime, I have purchased a second Doscinco kit. I use ivipQ-148 for calm listening and ivipQ-129 for a more energetic and driving sound.

[@SileDevil]

@@Ch1vers i had ti for about a week and sold it. for me the bass is kinda boomy to the point that makes it difficult to read between the bass notes

[@MrDomq22]

I can’t remember a time when I was this interested in a brands future as I am with Ziigaat right now. They are killing it both in pricing and sound quality. As far as I’m concerned, they haven’t missed yet. Not only that, the Cinno is one of my favorite sets from 2023. Ps. What happened with the ending here Chris?

Based on our libraries being very similar if I grab a set I'll be going with your rec and if not they're going on my short list.

I had an feeling that you might compare these two after the great wrap that you gave the Ziigaat Cinocotres and started talking about costings of these iems. I like your value talk lately. I find it very difficult to spend "moneytrees" on an iem. Appreciate the comparison and the diminishing returns commentary.

Been waiting for this since the video preview of last week. I was expecting just a review on Cinocotres, but a comparison is even better. However, it seems the video was cut short.

The 300-500 range is so good. Although I haven't tried iems above this price point, looks like the choice is widening at this range and iems from this range will satisfy almost anyone. I used to watch you since 2019-ish and iems has come so far. Crazy the amount of value you get. Really curious how the doscinco and cadenza 4 will compare to this.

[@silverwolfgecko7064]

Ayyyy Charles Bradley is ma man, have almost all of his albums in my playlist. Do you use music not inside your "normal" library to compare sets? Like Fragile - Laufey is probably not in your library, but does a good job of focusing on the "shoutiness" of an IEM I think.

This was the review I was waiting for, I've been looking at the Hype 4 as my next purchase because of the good reviews & I like it's looks but when I saw the Cinocotres I was intrigued to see how it fared against the Hype 4. I'm sure before I pull the trigger something else will probably join the fray but I need to have a hard think especially with the price difference.

Still waiting for my hype 4s to come in, but I would've loved for graphs and info of the cinocotres to come out before I preordered the hype 4s. I was really split between the doscincos, cinocotres, and hype 4s, but there was virtually no info on the Ziigaats when I was purchasing so I went with the hype 4s. Could've saved some money getting the cinocotres instead.

If you have the money, the marginal gain in performance can be worth it. but if the money is needed elsewhere or in doubt save the money and use it for somethimg else or just another set, so there can be some fun with listrning to completley differnt sound signatures
