Lotoo PAW Gold Touch - Touchscreen, 4.4mm Bal, USB DAC, Bluetooth

It's Christmas in Shanghai or something. A day after buying the CA Atlas, my new case for the LPGT arrived from the Ukraine. I had Valentinum on Etsy.com modify an existing design to add a magnetic flip cover. This way I can throw my LPGT into a bag without protection. (And it's black leather with orange thread! ) He does beautiful work.

 

Did something just killed this Thread for me or what..

 

Is it The Cars? RIP Ric Ocasek

 

These are my standard PMEQ settings for the LPGT with balanced armature IEMs:

Sub-bass boost only
(Band - Type - F0(Hz) - GAIN(dB) - Q):
1 - BPF - 50 - 1.2 - 1.0
2 - BPF - 75 - 0.8 - 1.0
3 - BPF - 90 - 0.1 - 1.0
4 - BPF - 200 - 0 - 1.0
5 - BPF - 6000 - 0 - 0.6

Sub-bass and treble boost
(Band - Type - F0(Hz) - GAIN(dB) - Q):
1 - BPF - 50 - 1.2 - 1.0
2 - BPF - 75 - 0.8 - 1.0
3 - BPF - 90 - 0.1 - 1.0
4 - BPF - 200 - 0 - 1.0
5 - BPF - 6000 - 1.7 - 0.6

The second setting is closest to the PAW Gold signature, although the goal is not emulation but getting the best sound from the LPGT. You also might tweak the gain settings for different IEMs.

And here is my setting for the Campfire Audio ATLAS. This solves the Atlas' mild mids suck out. The Atlas becomes my ideal IEM.
(Band - Type - F0(Hz) - GAIN(dB) - Q):
1 - BPF - 30 - 0 - 1.0
2 - BPF - 70 - 0 - 1.0
3 - BPF - 1900 - 1.4 - 0.6
4 - BPF - 5500 - 0.2 - 1.0
5 - BPF - 10000 - 0 - 1.0

I continue to be delighted by the sound quality of the LPGT's Blackfin-driven PMEQ.

 

While the sound performance and the build quality gap between the original LPG and PAW5k was a lot more noticeable, I don't see or hear the same between LPGT and PAW6k.

 

Nice, just when I was beginning to think the PAW6K had been abandoned

 

It is going to be released in China mainland late November if everything goes according to their plans.

 

I'm guessing they won't be multilingual as per the LPGT so they can bump up the price again for us english speaking. I can get the chinese version for about 25% less. It will sound the same but I cant read it without holding google translate over it lol.

 

Good question, that was a mess for some people. Wonder if Musicteck knows, they are their distributors in US; I don't have any other contacts with Lotoo otherwise.

 

I have a contact at lotoo I can try, he takes forever to reply though.

 

No better here in Hong Kong.

 

My PMEQ settings can be accessed through my signature which leads to a previous post, and then downloaded from there if you like.

 

Nevermind, fixed my problem. Let it sit on the charger longer.

 

With the PEQ of the LPGT, can it be set to make it sound completely different? Equalizers on other DAPs don’t seem to make that big of a difference.

 

Huge difference mate, its an amazing PEQ and does exactly what it says on the tin in super high quality
