Got the NE4 and the new plates in my ears. Just amazes these guys can tweak a sound using these caps. So the new transparent plate here adds more upper mids and a bit more emphasis to the mid trebles. So these aren't a new version of their neutral plate but more of a different reference plate.
It has been a while since I have been hearing the NE4 but these new plates. My goodness do these inject a new fresh sound on the NE4. This new transparent plate is actually how this one is tuned. It is the most detailed and airy version of all their plates. Reason why they seem to have gone with the clear plate. This actually describes the sound characteristics of the NE4 using this plate. I will post a few pics later but for now. I don't know how many of you reading this actually own the NE4. It took them a while to bring out a new plate for the NE4 but this new plate is most definitely worth it.
Neutral with the cleanest tonality out of all the plates. These plates end up making the NE4 sound like open cans. Fantastic airy clean reference sound from these. So they made good on their promise of more plates on the NE4. Amazes me what these guys can do with 4 high end BAs and how many ways they can tweak them.
