Unboxing
First, the inside box slides out to the left.

Then a booklet style cover opens up revealing the contents.


The IEMs are easy enough to get out of the foam insert, but the two boxes containing the tips and accessories will require some extra coaxing to get them out.
Build, Design & Ergonomics
The build quality of this product is completely satisfactory.
The silicone tips are softer than average and do very good job of creating a comfortable seal.

The 3D printed resin shells that house the single dynamic and two BA drivers are finished with a very high gloss finish that is as attractive as it is a finger-print magnet, but also feel very high quality in the hand, which I think might be a special smoother quality plastic that resin gives.

The cable is, as far as I can tell finished flawlessly, but since it uses a slightly more rubbery and flexible type of cable, it has on average a higher tendency to become more easily tangled than some other cables.
As a side-note I think it’s interesting to see manufacturers moving away from right angle plugs, now that portable dongle DACs are becoming more of an audiophile staple.

The combination of black and gold is something I’ve always had a fondness for.
There’s no denying that for me personally, the unboxing experience, and connecting the cable to the IEMs and reading the gold Times New Romanesque L and R markers just felt a bit more special to me because this eye-catching colour combination evokes certain emotions of style and quality.
Of course that means I must work even harder to try to remain objective for this review, but it also didn’t stop me feeling pleased with myself while wearing these outdoors.
I want this review to be just as much about the objective and subjective sound characteristics of the IEM as it is a review about a product, and I think some reviewers forget that sometimes people buy things also because of the way they look and how they feel; or indeed how the object makes the person feel.

This product, in it’s execution and packaging did a very good job of making me feel like I was holding onto something a little bit more special.
That is until I took out the carry case. I think as a case it’s fine, but it’s simply there to do it’s job of protecting the IEMs and nothing more.
It is finished slightly better than the cheap cases you may find on cheaper IEMs, but also nothing to get excited about.

Going back to the IEMs and cable, these were some of the easiest I’ve ever used to find a good fit. Typically I’ve found over-ear-cable IEMs in particular to be hit or miss, with even some very big brands with IEMs costing thousands of Euros, so take that however you like.
I think the simple combination of a very soft cable and pliable silicone tips made it a very simple matter of quickly picking the correct size tips, and going for a quick medium-shallow insertion.
Of course the shape of the IEM shells also contributes to these great ergonomics, and out of all the IEMs I’ve ever used, I feel like this is the most quintessentially IEM shape I have tested so far.
It’s almost as if Simgot took measurements of human ears and made an average shape.

The Sound
The theme continues very strongly here with these also being one of the most ‘IEM-like-sounding’ IEMs I’ve ever heard.
Once again I feel like they’ve taken notes from the audio community, reviewers, target averages etc, and made something close to what they thought many people would like.
I don’t think this is the most ‘middle of the road’ IEM out there, because I simply haven’t tested enough of them to know for sure, but if I had to guess, I would say the Moondrop Dusk might the closest to that ‘average sound’, at least for me personally, because it is a touch warmer and upper mids are not quite as pronounced.
Also the EM6L has a bit of extra spice in the upper treble that may only work for music about 50% of the time, depending on what you mostly listen to.

Looking at the graph, there are only really two points to talk about.
The hump around 1000hz, or dip around 500hz depending on which way you look at it, combined with the rising upper mids above 3KHz gives the mids a slightly thin sounding timbre, which actually lends itself shockingly well to rock music and female vocals.
Occasionally some male vocals sound a touch thin, where I would have appreciated a bit more energy around the 500hz dip, but it’s nothing distracting or tasteless and overall I would say the midrange timbre, while is it technically slightly incorrect, is not so far from reality and I would describe it as simply being more clinical and dry.
The other main point is actually more important.
The treble peak, which is also exaggerated by the miniDSP EARS, gives too much energy to upper treble, but, it’s very music dependent.
With live acoustic and rock music, especially older and more conservative recordings it gives a very live and musical sound. However, with many types of electronic music, it can be quite piercing, bordering on shrill.
Of course there are some exceptionally well mastered examples of electronic music that don’t make you suffer from this.
And is it of course nothing too serious as it can also be easily EQ’d out.

Finally the bass is where I felt this IEM gave it’s weakest performance.
To be clear – it is not a weak performance in of itself, but the single dynamic driver doesn’t quite keep up with the rest of the sound provided by the 2 balanced armatures, and bassheads might get turned off by the tuning which has slightly more midbass emphasis over the subbass.
The saving grace here is that overall, the bass is tuned almost perfectly, also with it’s relation to the rest of the sound.
Rolling through all types of music there are of course going to be moments where I feel like the bass could have been overall a touch louder, or have a tiny bit less midbass around 150-200hz, but since there’s only a few decibels difference between my personal ‘neutral’ or ‘average’ compared to what the EM6L offers, it comes off as being a tuning flavour choice and not a glaring error or tuning mistake.
And that’s putting aside the fact that all music is not mastered equally, so there will never be a single perfect IEM anyway.
So the only reason I felt it was a bit weak is because the texture and speed was certainly lacking behind a bit. Not sluggish, just lacking some texture and rumble.
Of course, looking at this from the other side of the fence, you could also argue that it makes the bass less fatiguing and more relaxing to listen to.

Which perfectly brings me back to why I think this IEM is so IEM-like.
It feels like every decision made as part of the design and tuning process was made (within cost) to reach as close to the human average as possible.
To make a headphone comparison, my personal ‘average’ headphone is the Sennheiser HD650.
It is a headphone that many people find supremely comfortable to wear.
It makes a sound that most people do not find piercing or fatiguing in any part of it’s frequency response.
It does not provide a small soundstage, nor a particularly large one either.
It is ‘an’ headphone.
Conclusions
The EM6L, being a cheaper product hasn’t perfectly managed to achieve this perfect middle-ground, but since it got so close, I feel like it’s very difficult to fault in any one particular area.
It also has an average soundstage.
It closely follows a modern traditional IEM frequency response curve.
I think it should fit many heads and musical tastes.
It's 'an' IEM
So I think for anyone looking for that one IEM that is just a little bit more coloured than the middle-ground, these should easily fit into your shortlist.

There're not much to say about the box and fit is alright so ...
If you're interested in graph comparison, here's the link
- Mid (7.5/10): Good tune, very good tune, maybe was a little too good with electronic songs, separation isn't good and busy section sound messy.
- Vocals (6.5/10): dip in mid is very noticable with male vocals, female vocals lack edge
- Treble (6/10): natural sounding, electronic sounds good, natural instrument sounds too smooth (flute,..), most percussion sounds like it hitting under a huge layer of ice
- Detail (6.5/10): Macro (7/10), Micro (6/10)
- Soundstage (7/10): very big hall soundstage
- Imaging (4.5/10): good stereo, height placement and layering is almost nonexistent
Bias (8/10): bass boosted neutral
Overall : 6.5/10

There're not much to say about the box and fit is alright so ...

If you're interested in graph comparison, here's the link
- Bass (7.5/10): kinda remind me of Penon Serial, good authority, load of air, nice detail, flat before 120hz, the bass feels a little disconnect with other frequency.+ i'm a normal asian dude with some music producing background
+ i like clean balanced sound signature with focus on sub bass and lower treble, especially looking for a good dynamism and harmonic playthrough, i like vocal, not necessary mid dominant, can consider myself as treblehead
+ 60-68db listening session
+ Avarage score 4/10 (Quarks/ 7hz Zero) Middle score 6/10 (Tanchjim Kara)
+ Bias score is i like it or not, doesn't sum on overall score
- Mid (7.5/10): Good tune, very good tune, maybe was a little too good with electronic songs, separation isn't good and busy section sound messy.
- Vocals (6.5/10): dip in mid is very noticable with male vocals, female vocals lack edge

Summary
So, what is EM6L? The EM6L is a hybrid iem from Simgot with 1DD+4BA drivers coming in at 110$. Inside the box you will find all the basic stuff, iems, cable, eartips, case and papers. Build is decent with a full resin construction and metal faceplate and nozzle, design is simple yet elegant with mirror black finish. Sound wise Simgot has gone for mild V tuning based on the Harmon 2019 target, practically speaking it is more on the musical side compared to other Simgot sets. Now most importantly, Is this any good? I will say yes, this is a versatile set with decent sound. But before you decide to purchase this set, do check out my full review.
Intro
Hey Guys, whats up….
Today I am checking out the EM6L from Simgot. This is a 1DD+4BA hybrid iem coming in at 110$. Talking about Simgot, they are pretty well reputed ChiFi iem manufacturer. They have been around for a while now but they became crowd favorite after their original EA500 release. By now I have had the opportunity to try out several sets, and I have reviewed three, the EW200, EA500LM and the EA1000 Fermat. Anyways enough yapping, lets get into the review, starting with the specs
Disclaimer: Thanks to Simgot for providing this unit. But as always this review is unbiased and my honest opinion. Thanks…

>Earphone connector: 0.78mm QDC
=PRICE: $109
Packaging/ Box Contents
Moving on to the packaging section, this comes in a simple, minimalistic box. I dropped the list of box contents below, all the accessories are of decent quality. The case is simple but serves the purpose, the size is good enough to throw in a dongle dac too. The cable is good, I will get into a bit more detail on it later. The eartips are standard small, medium and large. Box contents:

Build and Design
Moving on to the build and design of the EM6L, this is solid.Sumgot has gone for a resin construction and metal faceplate. In terms of looks this has a understated yet elegant design, with a glossy black almost mirror like finish. One side has the simgot logo and the otwr side has the phoenix logo. I am really liking the simplistic look ghey are going for. Anyways, the shells are medium sized and are very light weight. Finger prints are an issue on this glossy black finish, but scratches were not an issue in my use case. The 2pin connectors are QDC type. The nozzles are made of metal and are normally sized. The nozzles do not have a lip to hold eartips securely. The shells are vented.
Fit and Comfort
Continuing with fit and comfort, EM6L scores high. The shells sit nice and flush in my regular sized ears. The stability is on point, thanks to the light weight design. Breathability is good thanks to the vented design. Isolation is good but nothing crazy. Driver flex was not an issue when inserting the iems. I did not find any issue with long term listening, is was plenty comfortable.
Cable
Now let’s look at the cable. The EM6L comes with a ok built stock cable, this is not bad but there are more well built cable with iems at this price. This is a 4core cable in a 2 core braid, silver plated copper (OFC) cable. It uses a QDC 2pin connector and has standard straight 3.5mm plug. The 2core braiding is tight and flexible. There is no audible microphonics. The preformed earhooks are ok, a bit on the stiffer side, they blend in with the color of the cable and did not cause any irritation. In terms of looks this goes nicely with the iems.

Eartips: stock, Final E, spinfit w1
Cable: stock
Music: Tested with versatile genre of music
Sound tonality
Sound signature: mild v
Now most importantly sound, the EM6L provides a generally pleasing clean, energetic yet musical sound. Simgot has tuned this iem based on the Harmon 2019 target.

Bass
Let's delve into the bass performance of the EM6L, which is quite good. This provides a controlled fun type of bass. In terms of positioning, the mid bass is more forward compared to the sub bass. The sub bass although not as forward, feels tactile and dynamic, slams deep. Mid bass provides good punch. Overall, the EM6L has a mid bass forward presentation. The body and layering are executed well, without getting muddy. Decay and reverberation are satisfactory, and bass note separation is good. EM6L has a more prominent bass shelf compared to other Simgot sets, I have noticed. Personally, I would have liked a bit more rounded off bass presentation, with a bit more sub bass.
Mids
Moving on to the midrange performance of the EM6L, Simgot has gone for a very similar tuning compared to their other sets. EM6L prioritizes clarity and transparency with crispness on top. The transition from mid bass to lower mids is slightly warm, due to the more prominent mid bass. Thus this contributes to a warm and lush male vocal performance, at least compared to the female vocals. Simgot usually goes for leaner and energetic upper mids, which is present here. This gives female vocals the shine and crispness. Positioning wise, female vocals are more forward compared to the male vocals. While this doesn't get sibilant or harsh, it might be fatiguing for treble sensitive listeners. I quite enjoyed the level of sparkle present in the midrange. Note weight and note separation is good.
Treble
Proceeding on to the treble section, Simgot has gone for an almost bright tuning for the EM6L. In short the treble is refined, well-extended, and maybe a bit more smoother compared to other Simgot sets. Details are crisp without being too in your face. It is easy to spot intricate nuances. Occasionally, EM6L’s treble might get a bit hot or peaky. While there is no significant harshness or sibilance issues, treble sensitive listeners may find it bothersome. There is BA timbre present, but not too noticeable. The speed is normal to fast type. The airy presentation enhances the sense of space in the soundstage. Personally I do not find any cons here, except the occasional peaks.
Technical Sound:
Soundstage of the EM6L is pretty good, better than average. All three plains are above average, this has good width but the height is ok. Stage depth is good.
Imaging is also better than average.
Sound separation and layering is good
Resolution is above average
Dynamics are satisfactory
Timbre is satisfactory
Conclusion
So to conclude the review, is it worth the price? I would say yes, this provides decent value for money. But I personally still think EA500LM is the champ in the sub 100$ price range for me.
Who is this for? If you are looking for a good all rounder iem with mild V shape sound and good technicalities, this can be a good option. Anyways, props to Simgot, they did a good job with this set. And big thanks to you all for sticking around.

Proceeding on to the treble section, Simgot has gone for an almost bright tuning for the EM6L. In short the treble is refined, well-extended, and maybe a bit more smoother compared to other Simgot sets. Details are crisp without being too in your face. It is easy to spot intricate nuances. Occasionally, EM6L’s treble might get a bit hot or peaky. While there is no significant harshness or sibilance issues, treble sensitive listeners may find it bothersome. There is BA timbre present, but not too noticeable. The speed is normal to fast type. The airy presentation enhances the sense of space in the soundstage. Personally I do not find any cons here, except the occasional peaks.
Technical Sound:
Soundstage of the EM6L is pretty good, better than average. All three plains are above average, this has good width but the height is ok. Stage depth is good.
Imaging is also better than average.
Sound separation and layering is good
Resolution is above average
Dynamics are satisfactory
Timbre is satisfactory

Conclusion
So to conclude the review, is it worth the price? I would say yes, this provides decent value for money. But I personally still think EA500LM is the champ in the sub 100$ price range for me.
Who is this for? If you are looking for a good all rounder iem with mild V shape sound and good technicalities, this can be a good option. Anyways, props to Simgot, they did a good job with this set. And big thanks to you all for sticking around.
