Having gotten the Moondrop Kato recently I am in love with their sound and the tuning is right where I'd want it to be (minus a few occasions where the 6khz-ish dip does leave me wanting a smidgen more clarity, but that's nit-picking at this point) what grabbed my attention on these was namely their price and how close they come to the Kato tuning (as far as Crin's graphs have to say about it) while having that perfectly ergonomic shell that I've come to love from the Kinera Idun and JQ 4U Pro. I am a tad concerned about the 4khz-ish dip but everything else seems "fine" graph wise.
You probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a tool to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Uriah Sincere Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Thank you as always. Zeos mentioned that the FH3 has excellent imaging and that the L4 has a very narrow soundstage. Did that come across on your side aswell?
Nice review！can you compare to VG4 for me, is the midrange leaner as the VG4, or fuller, is it warmer or colder compare to VG4, and also how about the resolution and soundstage in comparison. Thank you !,
Thanks for this review! How the L4 compare to the Mangird Tea? I want one of those two and I wonder how different they are in technicalities, mainly soundstage, imaging and separation.
They're pretty close actually in technicalities. I would say the TEA has a slightly bigger soundstage and better imaging but the L4 has better instrument separation and clarity.
Yes, of course it comes with a cable! It's actually quite good for drummers because it has good noise isolation. However, you might want to consider something like the BASN MMCX which is designed specifically for musicians.
If you just want a more fun bassy easy iem choose the fh3 but if you really want to hear all those little separated mindblowing details than the l4 is for you
Are you using the same source as you were at the store? In my experience, IEMs don't change with burn in. I'd be willing to bet the difference is related to something else (source, eartips, music files etc.)
Is it the same treble on L3? How about technicalities? Separation, soundstage, and imaging compare L3 I have L3 with costum faceplate, to me, it is sound nice and clean.
@@PrimeAudioReviews yes yes, L3 treble is smooth, L3 is briliant tonality. Like we are the same side of tuning preference. How about mangird? Is it L3 upgrade?
Got these earlier this year secondhand for 120 US. Amazing fit, good bass and resolution, decent tuning, too bright for my taste but not really offensive. Soundstage depth is extremely narrow, almost non-existent, probably my biggest gripe with the L4. Overall, I wouldn't rec these for $199 given current competition but not half bad if you can find it for 100-120.
Hi, i need some opinion here. I have the opportunity to buy this for USD80. Is it still worth it considering there is a lot of good iem in the same price (ea500, hexa)
Yep. Not by a lot - the biggest difference is in cutting the mids slightly which brings the relative level of bass forward, but the bass gets a little boost too.
The Spring 2 has much more powerful bass, midrange has more body and warmer tonality. It can be strident in the upper treble while the L4 has a lower treble sharpness.
It depends how much you want to spend. I would say the DUNU DK2001 or Shanling ME500 PLATINUM. For cheaper alternatives the FH3 or NF Audio NM2 Plus but it really depends what kind of upgrade you're looking for (tonality or technicalities etc).
@@PrimeAudioReviews could be highger price $200 to $400 better insolation, soundstage, good sub base, warm signature not too flat something that you can enjoy, good imaging 😁 what you could say is a good option
@@itsandyme9192 completely reversible as well. sellotape works fine but you could try medical tape for even greater fit due to rougher texture :D Best tip ever
@@PrimeAudioReviews L5 for my ears is a iem that sings when driven harder than say L3, at which the L3 smear in the upper register's. The bass hits nice. Over all its dark until power is upped. Cheers.
LZ A7 is really nice. It has about the same level of detail but superior resolution and a more natural tone. The only thing I don't like about the A7 is the sub-bass is too tame.
Sure, not everybody will appreciate it but I think it's handy and it can be repurposed for storing other IEMs or cables etc. The L4 is still good value for money regardless of the bundle.
They're a bit excessive but that would add a lot to the perceived value to some people. They were still a young company at the time and I'd assume the current offerings are more sparse.
I just got the Legacy 4 which i love and this is pretty much a perfect description of them great review 👍
Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad to know my description is close to what you're hearing!

Cant wait for your thoughts on the FH5s
Hopefully my unit will arrive soon. 🎧🙂
Nice review. Have you reviewed legacy 5
Not yet!
@@PrimeAudioReviews hope you do it. Heard it’s similar to the mangrid tea for $50 less
That's an incredible IEM, excellent review by you like always!!
Thank you
Thanks!

@Uriah Sincere It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account !
Have you heard Legacy 5s. I am planning to buy them. I am confused b/w L4 and L5 at the moment
I haven't heard the L5.
Thank you as always. Zeos mentioned that the FH3 has excellent imaging and that the L4 has a very narrow soundstage. Did that come across on your side aswell?
Nope. I found the opposite lol. The L4 has a wide stage but doesn't have much forward depth.
@@PrimeAudioReviews Eish..ok.
Thank you for the feedback 👍🏼
There was some possibility Zeus had a damaged set…
Nice review！can you compare to VG4 for me, is the midrange leaner as the VG4, or fuller, is it warmer or colder compare to VG4, and also how about the resolution and soundstage in comparison. Thank you !,
Would you think these are a good fit for a guitar player? Or do you think something more neutral or v-shaped would fit better?
I think the Legacy 3 is better value and would be less fatiguing for longer playing sessions.
Thanks for this review!

@@PrimeAudioReviews Awesome! Thank you for your reply
Good video ; legacy4 or blessing2 ; what is the best for you?
I haven't heard the Blessing 2 so I can't say.
Here we go 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Does it come with a cord?
Also is it good in ears for drummers.
Yes, of course it comes with a cable! It's actually quite good for drummers because it has good noise isolation. However, you might want to consider something like the BASN MMCX which is designed specifically for musicians.
This, kinera Idun or Hiby Crystal 6 ?
sometimes when I heard the DD is 8mm or 9mm I'm beginning to worry if i should buy it 😅😅😅
Small DD is fine. Even 6mm micro driver can deliver kickazz bass!
Fh3 or l4 which one do you prefer?
I'll take the FH3!
I have both and definitely the l4
If you just want a more fun bassy easy iem choose the fh3 but if you really want to hear all those little separated mindblowing details than the l4 is for you
How long did it take to burn in the Legacy 4, mine have been burned for 50 hours but it’s not the sound im expecting since I tried one at the store.
Are you using the same source as you were at the store? In my experience, IEMs don't change with burn in. I'd be willing to bet the difference is related to something else (source, eartips, music files etc.)
Is it the same treble on L3?
How about technicalities? Separation, soundstage, and imaging compare L3
I have L3 with costum faceplate, to me, it is sound nice and clean.
The L3 has inferior soundstage and details but a smoother treble and mids. I prefer the sound of my custom L3 over the L4.
@@PrimeAudioReviews yes yes, L3 treble is smooth, L3 is briliant tonality.
Like we are the same side of tuning preference. How about mangird? Is it L3 upgrade?
This Legacy4 or Blessing2 Dusk, what do you guys recommend?
I haven't heard any of the blessing IEMs so I can't help with that.

Does bass really benefit in adjusting the tuning switch?
Yep. Not by a lot - the biggest difference is in cutting the mids slightly which brings the relative level of bass forward, but the bass gets a little boost too.
How do You compare it with the BQEYZ Spring II? 🎧 What are the differences
The Spring 2 has much more powerful bass, midrange has more body and warmer tonality. It can be strident in the upper treble while the L4 has a lower treble sharpness.
@@PrimeAudioReviews thanks, what could be a good upgrade for the Spring II ?
It depends how much you want to spend. I would say the DUNU DK2001 or Shanling ME500 PLATINUM. For cheaper alternatives the FH3 or NF Audio NM2 Plus but it really depends what kind of upgrade you're looking for (tonality or technicalities etc).

That sounds like the DUNU DK2001 to me, although the isolation is just average!
I had the same problem with the L3 with tips not staying on apart from Sony MH750/755 tips and stock.
Oh that's too bad. My L3 is custom so I didn't realize it was the same.
If you wrap some tape around the stem a couple of times and carefully trim the end this solves this issue nicely!
@@jopar3292 I never thought of doing that. Thanks for the tip (No pun intended 😉)
@@itsandyme9192 completely reversible as well. sellotape works fine but you could try medical tape for even greater fit due to rougher texture :D Best tip ever
L4 or mangrid tea?
Mangird TEA but it costs 100 more.
@@PrimeAudioReviews worth it.
what iem do you suggest for metal genre?
ThieAudio Legacy 3, TRI Starsea, Moondrop Starfield.
what is the best switch setting ?
I prefer both switches Off/down.
What are the ear tips on the L4 ? is it Spinfit CP150?
Similar but I think those ones came with my Fearless SF8
I use S&S Dunu with L4 and it calms harchness down. Really my favorite with L4
Comment for da algorithm
Streak count: 11
Fire bro! 🔥🔥😃
I regret getting the L5 2 weeks before this was announced D;
Don't worry, L5 is still good right? 🎧
@@PrimeAudioReviews L5 for my ears is a iem that sings when driven harder than say L3, at which the L3 smear in the upper register's. The bass hits nice. Over all its dark until power is upped.
Cheers.
Whats ur though about LZ A7 Vs. Thie L4?
LZ A7 is really nice. It has about the same level of detail but superior resolution and a more natural tone. The only thing I don't like about the A7 is the sub-bass is too tame.
@@PrimeAudioReviews Legacy 4 or Fiio FH3 ?
Personally, I still prefer the FH3. It's got phat bass and is non-fatiguing for me.
@@PrimeAudioReviews tks.. i have a KZ zs10 pro and need an upgrade for play drums and mix some videos on Logic Pro!
😁🙌
what is the eartips on the FH3 ?
They are just generic wide-bore, shallow fit type - I call them donuts. I can't remember where I got these from but I have several similar to these.
❤ love it
Awesome!
can you do a dunu sa4?
Only if DUNU sends me one. 😆
Nice
L3 or L4? Also is it worth it to get the custom one?
If you've never had a custom before heck yes. I prefer my L3 custom over the universal L4. L4 has too much upper midrange lift for my preference.
I rather get something like this in a less impressive presentation and have that money invested in the actual quality of the iem's themselves.
Sure, not everybody will appreciate it but I think it's handy and it can be repurposed for storing other IEMs or cables etc. The L4 is still good value for money regardless of the bundle.
I wonder how much those would cost if they deducted the price of those ridiculous accessories
They're a bit excessive but that would add a lot to the perceived value to some people. They were still a young company at the time and I'd assume the current offerings are more sparse.
So Nice 💘💘💘💘💘💘
