thanks purplesun--are you driving the 4in1 with a mobile phone?


Mainly using on Fiio E10K with foobar2k. On my phone, Galaxy Alpha, 4in1 sounded OK but recessed. Volume level at max was more than enough but I do have quite sensitive hearing, so YMMV.

3+ years and still going strong. Thanks to all for your contributions here. it would not be the same without all of this info coming in from so many people and their experiences, and all of it is welcome. I just ask for myself and for Head-Fi's benefit to keep it civil, and agree to disagree at times. Always have good intentions as well, as I know I have thought some things were great in the past that didn't turn out to be after awhile. It happens to all of us.

The amount of info here has helped countless people (myself included) along with helping companies gain some awareness amongst a very crowded industry. It will only get better with the continued support here, so keep all this info coming in. It has enhanced my audio experience exponentially, and I hope it has done the same for others.

  I would like a comparison between the **** 4 in 1 and the Trinity Vyrus.


Still playing with all my Vyrus tuning options (so far most fond of the gunmetal) so my impressions are just that, preliminary impressions. The Vyrus is a cleaner, more balanced and detailed sound that therefore gives you the feeling of a wider, deeper soundstage. I think this would lead some to call the Vyrus analytical, but I just think of it as really well-tuned. The 4in1 is very musical with mids a bit forward. The treble and bass are nonetheless very good. Detail is present, but doesn't match the clarity of the Vyrus. This all makes the soundstage seem smaller and a bit more congested than the Vyrus on first impression but I think I'll ultimately come to see them a bit closer than that.  They're really two very different IEMs that deliver different things. If I had to keep only one, it would be the Vyrus right now. Again, these are my current, initial impressions (e.g., I haven't even tried amping the 4in1, the Vyrus uses more power quite nicely).

Thanks for your thoughts here. I find it impressive that the $30 **** can somewhat compete with the $80( $60 after discount) Vyrus, which gets great reviews too. According to all of these impressions, it seems for now that 4in1 is the low budget king. I sure wish mine would get here already
