Simgot EW100P & EW200 Double Review & Comparison 

My pleasure

My pleasure!

Thanks. Simgot, Tanchjim and SeeAudio seems to have a knack for great tuning and I am continuously impressed that they can do it practically at any price points

Thanks Giovanni. Really appreciate your support. Cheers

Glad it was helpful!

Stingggg

Thanks, if I can find a time I would like to do a video on that subject

Already did, especially for EW100, it is shallow enough when worn that I can lie down with the pillow sideways (just not leaning too much). EW200 has similar profile but the weight of being metal will make it less adaptable, but still usable for lying down

@@donglemadness thanks for the quick reply!

Thanks. I can only compare with IEMs that I have personally tested. If I can get EPZ G10 then I can do it

The ew200 is better. The g10 is basically a cadenza, both are good though. I really like the overall package of the g10, the side plates are fun. I haven’t given it too much time though, just general use.

@@Hijynx87 interesting comparison, how did you came to the conclusion that its just a cadenza?

​@@donglemadness The EPZ G10 is another strong performer and a great value for the low price. Recommended!

Thanks for your support!. Now, moving on from Samsung USB C to either M1P and DAWN Pro is already an improvement. The question now is what you would like more because both M1P and DAWN Pro will synergize great with EW200 and M50x too. Just remember this, both dongles are 4.4/3.5 type which means that to get 100% output when it comes to power, you need to use the 4.4 side of it, watch my other video on this subject and you will understand what I mean. EW200 is an IEM that appreciates power scaling so it will sound more open if you patch it to the 4.4mm BAL side. As for which one to go for, since you mentioned you have similar sound appreciation to mine, then absolutely I will recommend M1P over DAWN Pro. Comparison of $300 headphones to similarly priced IEMs? well this is a tricky one because one thing I have learned from the last three years was that price does not necessarily determine sound quality and performance. I have a few $300 headphones I use regularly like Sennheiser HD600, HD650, HiFiMan Sundara etc. what I do know is that HD600 being a legend for 25 years now, is still one of the very best regardless of price, because I prefer it more over the expensive HD800s. How does that even compute yes? haha. As for comparison perspective to IEMs, something like Simgot EA500 comes very close to matching HD650 sort of sound, and Hidizs MP145 is outright superior than HiFiMan Sundara in terms of technicalities - I hope you can see my perspective here. Ultimately always remember this, the only thing that matters is what you find pleasing to your own ears, we human tend to perceive sonic resonances different from one another. Cheers.

It will be hard for me to talk about something which I don't have in hand, but assuming that FiiO built this LS-TC1 for universal usage, then I would assume it will work with any IEMs that has dual pin 0.78, also depends on how recessed the female side of it

Well, both EW200 and FD11 are tuned similarly, so any one of them would be equally great for the type of music you listen to

Between the two, EW100P is what I would recommend for what you seek, also consider TANGZU Wan'Er SG

@@donglemadness thank you 👍

@@donglemadness and this may seem like a silly question but do mic cables (negatively) affect sound quality or do they make no difference?

I don't know about Tanchjim Space Lite, I don't have it. But I would recommend you consider Moondrop DAWN Pro instead, better than 7Hz 71 surely

Ouranos is markedly safer tuned among them all, meaning it suits people who are sensitive to energetic highs. EA500 still hold the fort for being the closest to being neutral with mild coloration, all of them however are natural and organic depending on what tips you use and also what sort of sound source

I hope soon. Thanks

I am more inclined to recommend Abigail over Avani for EW200, better synergy

@@donglemadness aight thanks! but I was thinking since I only use spotify (320kbps), would it still be worth buying a dongle, like would there be any apparent difference?

@@snowflaksmasher86 Yes still worth it

If gaming on desktop only, get Fosi Audio K5 Pro which I have reviewed and tested, amazing for gaming and you can control Treble/Bass as how you want it. If you need something smaller, then Shanling UA4 or iBasso DC06Pro would be great too

@donglemadness thank you for making the time to answer. Unfortunately, Fosi Audio is not available in my country (PH). I might go after tha shanlings or ibasso. thanks for helping me!

You too!

Thanks. I definitely feel that HZ HMirror ZERO deserves more credits, it is a refined and more balanced implementation of the legendary og HM. Compared to EW200, HM Zero tuning is geared towards crispness of sound and closer to V sound curve target, a bit more energy with dynamics. EW200 is less V curved in contrast, which may be more appealing if you like closer to neutral target. I would say that between the two they are closely matched technically

@@donglemadness wow nice. I think I will add Hzsound Heart Mirror Zero to my collection. Thanks Andy. So, it means Hzsound Heart Mirror's technicalities can also compete with Simgot EA500 even tho EA500 is obviously better because of its price 😅

@@wanaboed Yes, very close

​@@donglemadness hi bro. Which IEM you think is best upgrade for Hzsound Heart Mirror OG? I'm eyeing this simgot EW200 or 500. I mod my HM using Y2 filter to close 1 vent hole to elevate the bass a little bit

@@shogun5436 Hard to say, OG HM is very bright and energetic, both EW200 and EA500 are more balanced and closer to neutral so you may find both less exciting than the highly colored OG HM. Perhaps you can try something like Final Audio A5000 or Hidizs MP145 both of which are among the very best V tuned IEMs, but then since it seems you love Bass, probably those two will not be enough for you as well. But I think perhaps MUSE HiFi ME1 would be best suited to your taste

Same ship does not necessarily mean equal, the tuning matters. However EW200 limitations is that even DAWN Pro would already be max for it, usually if you use something more resolving like Final Audio A5000 or Etymotic ER2XR, then you can hear DC04Pro has more resolution and headroom, but for most other IEMs, they will sound similar

@@donglemadness thanks for your reply, definitely gonna grab the dc04. Did you any planing to review DAP Hiby R3 II? want to see how about this mid range DAP

Me? between the three you mentioned I will pick FD11 for the extra smoothness with decays and a bit more of air

Yes. Already ordered

@@donglemadness that's nice. Look forward to your review of it

I haven't tried Sonus so I don't know how it compares against EW200. EW200 has what you looking for, but if you need even more Bass, consider also KZ Castor Bass version

@@donglemadness thank you for the response, could you please comment on pla 13? I heard it has bass but also has too much treble.., even the bass shouldn't be muddy., Your views on it?

@@charan7894 I haven't tried PLA13 as well so I don't know

The majority of dongles now are relatively low in noise/distortion. For under $30, get either Abigail Pro or JCally AP7, both great with EW200

@@donglemadness Is Abigail pro better than jcally jm7 and jm9 for simgot ew200?

@@ashwinms19 All of them are practically similar in terms of performance for EW200

@@donglemadness ok thanks 👍. So going after Abigail pro is a wise choice

Tanchjim ONE is more bassy than ZERO. ZERO is closer sounding to EW100

@@donglemadness ok i now buy zero with mic for 9$ ;D but with microphone doesn't this affect the sound quality?

If you like EW200, the upgrade path for it is definitely the trio of Tanchjim KARA/Final Audio A5000/BQEYZ Winter. Or if you want a bit more of zing, Tangzu Heyday with that unique magnetic planar timbre. Or you want some rich good old analog sound, VIE SIE

@@donglemadness thank you so much

@@donglemadness I'm thinking of Tanchjim - KARA. Will that be any good for ur recommendation?

@@Audiodote Yes absolutely

@@donglemadness Finally ordered Final Audio A5000 after watching ur review... thanks a lot bro....

Check out Donglemadness FB group, I have announced there the ratings for dongles and where you can check them

DFI still overall a better unit technically, timbre wise EW200 is smoother

I really love the ew200’s warm tonality. Goldilocks zone, not too warm. If you are gaming definitely the ew200.

No

Yes, you will get great resolution and crisp clean sound

I heard that ew200 can refined it sound. And get more what you pay for this iem.

@@user-qu5ex3te1c That's true

Graphs don't tell the whole story. Good for reference but that actual sound is what matters, they do have similar tuning but the nuances that separates them can only be appreciated by human ears

It is not big, should be okay

@@donglemadness thank you sir btw what is your recommended third party eartips can i use to the ew200?

@@burgerthingz974 Ear tips can be very subjective because what works for one person may not work for others. Our ear cavity can be different. Nonetheless, if you like foam tips, I always recommend Dekoni or Misodiko and Spinfit CP800 if I must use silicone tips

@@donglemadness thank you very much sir

Why does it has to be Simgot? There's tons of other options that can satisfy your needs for Bass heavy listening, something like KZ DQ6S, or AFUL P5. Simgot generally focus on close to neutral target sound curve and that means less coloration

did you try a foam tip? ur crazy son

Ea500 doesn’t have enough subbass. ew200 has better bass.

Lol, who would buy ea500 for bass?

Who would buy it period!!!!!! LOL LOL it was overhyped @@zuri_ortiz
