500+ Head-Fier
Some comparisons between the LZ-A4 and Quads:
1MORE Quad Driver:
- Smooth treble, maybe a tad too much for some people on some rare tracks
- Tight bass which doesn't seem boosted, very flat to my ears, little to no midbass hump, very fast
- Details just pour over you, there is nothing lost
- Overall very balanced, bassheads might want to use some EQ, for me the bass is perfect
- Stellar comfort
- Soundstage i've never heard in any IEM before, pinpoint accuracy for any instrument (some wrapping arround your head with sound stuff going on)
- Stellar build quality, not a single flaw i could point out (some might like a detachable cable, i prefer a sturdy installed cable and this one is very sturdy)
- Somehow they put a bit of magic in them
LZ-A4:
- Smooth treble, but boosted and sibilant to my ears with some filters, with pink filters (least treble) the treble is very smooth and not boosted
- Tight, but a bit more loose bass, more midbass hump and boosted with some filters, never really lacking besides with maybe the Blue backfilter
- Very detailed, but some get lost IMO when you have the filters with dampening installed
- Pretty balanced with the right set of filters
- Very comfortable, not as extremely comfortable as the quads, but no complains here
- With some filters the soundstage is as huge as the quads, but then you get sibilance (IMO), they can't reach the soundstage of the quads though but have their own quality, more intimate presentation
- Very good build quality, though some plastic is used, for that you get a detachable cable though
They cost about the same and i would rather recommend the quads in the 200$ pricerange no question.
