Ziigaat Cinno - Your Chill 1+4 Hybrid. Relax and Enjoy

[@fiddlix]

Excellent review and comparison, I’m one of those “low pinna army” flag carriers. I knew immediately what todo with this set. Definitely my chill set.

[@JohnClarkW]

I use the Hola as my daily office IEM, it is one of the best budget IEMs on the market.

[@SileDevil]

do you have it:

[@fiddlix]

@@SileDevil yes, and it is glorious for us low pinna army fans. Very organic and natural with a slight boost in the mid-bass.

[@SileDevil]

@@fiddlix can you do a quick comparison to Fudu?

[@christiharris292]

Very interesting set and tuning. Thanks for the very detailed explanation

[@PaulWasabii]

It is, I think the hobbyists will gravitate to it, some will try, some will see Ziigaat trying new things and keep an eye on them.

Great KZbin channel

Seems good for traveling

[@JohnClarkW]

I have a pair of these coming in the mail. The low pinna was appealing, and nice to see a different tuning. I am sort of looking forward to hearing them.

[@PaulWasabii]

Yep, I think most people are buying it for those reasons. Something different, something more relaxed. Its a preference though, you will see how it aligns to yours in a bit.

[@JohnClarkW]

@@PaulWasabii I have heard mixed reviews on them. The tuning looks like a darker Galileo, which would be a welcome addition.

[@KmtS9]

Any thoughts on how these compare to the Fudu? I'd imagine Fudu has a bit more bass, and without the 2k dip in the uppers right?

[@PaulWasabii]

Yeah that and Fudu has a 5k bump so you can't get as up there in volume like Cinno. Both hit on preferences though, and for me, I just like that warmer Fudu style. Not saying its better, just that is what I would pick up.

[@KmtS9]

@@PaulWasabii Thanks for confirming Paul! But yes, i actually do notice that 5k bump and kinda like it. Keeps things from being too dark. I think that's why i still get a sense of detail despite the warm and darker tuning. 2024's gonna be a fun year with companies pushing the boundaries with different hybrid configs!

[@woka_kawanua-hw2hj]

hi paul, in regards with upper mids and treble, how do you find this set compare to P1Max, thank you and please 🙏 answer. wishing you merry x'mas 🎄🦌 and happy 🎊 new year.

[@PaulWasabii]

I didn't have P1max long but I tend to like planars and pinna areas just under Harman target, like P1max. Cinno is nice, but its really relaxed and I don't mind turning it up, but its really relaxed. Good for people looking for that, but most people are closer to P1max.

[@RaoulVanDePetrucci]

Thank you for your work and your reviews, Paul Wasabii. how would you describe ziigat Nuo vs 7Hz Sonus? Thanks.

[@PaulWasabii]

Depending on your music and ears, they could sound similar. There is some extra upper treble energy on Nuo, maybe that sounds fun to you, maybe fatiguing, maybe don't notice. Sonus is more balanced, no extra surprises in the treble. I can see where people would say they are similar depending on how hard your music hits the treble and your sensitivity .

[@SileDevil]

how is the bass impact and texture on these?

[@PaulWasabii]

Kinda what I said and my view on it. The midbass doesn't have much boost and the subbass softens it anyway. I am probably part of the lower subbass clan as when that is dipped, you get sharper impact and clearer texture.

[@JoseFerreira-zb7wh]

Already have the kara. Similar vibes ir seems.

[@PaulWasabii]

Never heard Kara but could be

[@m_yy_m]

Nice! Maybe a little overpriced? I agree, the Truthear Hola is one the sets that see most use when working long hours or listening to music at higher volumes.

[@PaulWasabii]

yeah, I get their price strategy, but as I said, I wish it was a bit more hybrid-y. If I am paying for 4ba, I like to hear them clearly.

[@MrDomq22]

I’m lucky enough to be part of a tour group from a forum so I was able to demo the Cinno a week ago, fell in love with them after tip and source rolling and bought a pair. I really enjoy these. Gonna sell the Hexa and EA500 to make room!

[@JohnClarkW]

Even over the EA500, that is impressive.

[@MrDomq22]

@@JohnClarkW fit is impossible for me with the EA500. Otherwise, it’s a cracker of an IEM

[@PaulWasabii]

Man, seems like you figured out your preference in one shot. But this is precisely why I hesitate when people ask what is the most resolving...are you sure that is going to be something you like? Seems like you are Low Pinna Army so carry on and enjoy.
