Is **** 4in1 really good?
 
I can't find any review in search results of baidu.com

How does the Zudac compare to something like Fiio E10K. They are offering a refurb unit for 49$. Just wanted to bounce this off you guys before going ahead.

very wide soundstage and impressive mids for the price. highly recommended for all to get it. soundstage nearly on par to my fidue sirius which cost 899 usd from penon audio but sirius still wins in the 3d

extremely competent.

Yeah then a month later you'll change your mind.  I wish you would stop making these post after just getting something.

some criticism of the GT36: microphonics and highs

Hi all,

Hi
welcome to Head-Fi, as always, sorry for your wallet.

 

[purplesun]

  two **** questions:
1. to those who have both the 4in1 and dt2, is there enough of a sonic difference to justify having both? (not that logic plays any part in this pursuit).

 
IMHO, 4in1 is more revealing, stronger highs & lows & less forgiving to bad source equipment/material. DT2 is more forgiving and has a flatter response but less freq extension. IMO, DT2 sounds a tad more refine, while 4in1 puts up a more exciting sound. I find DT2 more natural while 4in1 is leaner & more energetic. Yet both have quite similar basic sound character. I have been going to & fro between them for a week now, I still can't decide which I prefer more.

I don't want to point any fingers, but IMO it's important to realize that some people are prone to hype things, and it's also important to recognize who these people are and treat their impressions accordingly. I'm sure most of them don't mean anything bad with it, might be that they tend to get excited by new toys and therefore write it up a lot. It's not like I'm unaffected by the new toy syndrome myself.
 
There are reasons why most "serious" reviewers spend a lot of time with a new unit before writing a review, and that they are careful with giving too positive or negative first impressions, and are very clear about the fact that they are just that, first impressions.
 
We all work, and think, differently about things like this, and as I said, it's important to recognize how different people (and you, yourself) work, in order to be able to interpret first impressions. I've learned to not trust my own opinions of a recently received unit myself, just to take an example.
 
It has happened more than a few times that my opinion about an IEM has changed drastically with time, Havi B3 (which I didn't like at all in the beginning, and then started to really appreciate) is a good example. My review after a week and my review now would be very very different.

yes at least I am honest in changing my impressions after a month. Some dont even bother to change.

Forgot to mention that 4in1 plays a few decibels louder overall than DT2. Had to tweak the volume control up/down when comparing them.

thing is we have different sources so synergy is different

I'm looking for a DAP under $50 to pair with my **** 4in1, does anyone have any suggestion ?
