Man, don't worry. We always have times in life which we aren't feeling the best. I can relate when you said that you prefer your time alone rather that socializing, not that I don't enjoy talking to people but it can be very energy consuming. And also the turbillion of things that is happening in your life right now have probably made you more exhausted. I love when share about your life and what is happening, makes the video not just a robotic review but something more human. Take a break when feel like it. Love your videos, keep it up 😜.
I’d actually be interested in a more personal channel from him with more of his life, thoughts, interests.
Love what you do on TH-cam and how you do it. Get regular peace and rest. And keep rolling it to us as much as you feel.
Thank you 🙏
I like your way of explaining the technical details. Well understandable and super interesting for someone who is "only listener" of IEMs. Also great how you describe your perception of the sound. Maybe I can ask you for a recommendation when I know exactly what I want. :)
Thank you 🙏
I am trying to get better at explaining things and there is still a lot that I don't know but hopefully most of it is easy enough to understand.
Y make me a lil more happy everyday when u post thank you 😢
Appreciate your personal sharing in the beginning Hi-Fri! Great analysis, I'm still waiting for mine to review 😞
I am almost 64 with some hearing damage. For me and my situation the Galileo looks ideal. Exactly what I have been looking for. My hearing damage makes my very sensitive to sibilance issues in the eargain region of the frequency response graph.
I received the QoA Gimlet the other day. It is my understanding you had a hand in tuning this iem set. I am really enjoying it. Interesting tuning that works. Kudos.
What more can you ask for from a $110 iem, for me it is as beautiful and functional as a $500 one.😎🤔
Great video again, whats your favorite iem under $200?
And also list of favorite overear headphone?
Favorites driver types in iems and oems?
Great teardown man. Good stuff. 👏🤘
Thank you. 🙏
Fantastic review. Thank you.
Very nice video as always. I typically just watch till the end because you have very good points sprinkled into your videos.
Just curious, how do they compare to your Canpur IEMs? Being hybrid drivers without physical crossovers, I wonder how much the driver quality plays a role in the overall sound quality. Would you comment or do a comparison on video as well?
I haven't been able to fully enjoy iems/headphones they way I do with speakers. Listening to even poorly placed speakers feels more natural to listen to than putting something on or in my head.
The more I hear about these, the more I want to at least try a pair. Maybe a more natural timbre can help my brain overcome other unnatural aspects
You might consider Flatheads instead for wearables solution. Comfort wise they are one scale above iems and provide some of the speaker spacial distance effect.
I recently made an IEM with the smd components just hanging in the shell like here and I get an annoying pinging noise when I touch the shell while it's in my ear. Pretty sure the foam is there to stop that.
Tuned with Sony way ( foam)
nice review. keep up the good work.
How does the build quality of the Canpur hybrid compare? and sound quality of the Canpur 1&1? Glad you've returned. Taking me time is important.
So the canpur 1&1 is a lot brighter in the upper mids and treble and the timbe is a lot more uneven compared to Galileo but I think the stage width/depth, seperation of instruments and 3D is better on the 1&1. Build quality is a toss up, both are pretty good although the 1&1 uses thicker resin so as far as drops and falls I'd say the 1&1 is a little more durable.
The Galileo is better designed acoustically but the 1&1 uses much thicker, seemingly more durable resin.
@Hi-Fri Audio Really enjoying the Canpur 1&1. Would never have known about them had you not posted regarding the sale, very grateful. Have you had a chance to post the 3 Canpur Joyful FR graphs to Squiglink?
Which is better for my preference?
I listen to lots of kpop, jazz , lofi , female vocals.
Galelio vs hexa vs zero red?
interesting, just got a retail unit, my pair doesn't have that rear large piece of foam :O
i was planning on using my tax return to get the aful p5 but the galileo are really calling my name
Solitude is a GOD blessing to me. Albert Einstein would use the same technique to unclutter his mind, turn off distraction, and become absolutely focused. My only possible advice, is ditch the medication, like your love of music, it introduces impurity. Your a big boy now, just tough it out, as long as your Heart is beating, the Mind can catch up later. Awesome Reviews. 👍👌
You are human, we all have our quirks.
Have to say, it did a great job!
Great video as usual Sir Jeffrey your inputs definitely benefit me a lot in considering Galileo while I don't have the same tolerance as you when it comes to treble I certainly don't want something that sounds lacking and yes this based on measurements and reviews definitely hits my preference of wanting something smooth but has vocal clarity so yeah thank you sir Jeffrey
Also if you ever do decide to do measurements can you also include their distortions?
The distortions of the DD and BA alone and the distortion of both together
I do wonder because based from what you said if they are technically both working full range with just having lower volume on certain frequencies wouldn't that translate to it having higher than normal in distortion compared to those with a true crossover setup? Because their distortions would probably add up?
also tbh it's using a different than usual DD in it's price range which makes me curious
And also don't worry about being away we all need time and space and we all get drained even if we are doing things that we love to do
While you are correct with respect to the distortion, you have to note that the distortion/THD is defined as the sum (square root of the squared sums) of the distortion components divided by the total signal. Or the fundamental. Or the fundamental including the distortion. If you stay below 10% all the definitions have the same answer basically.
Anyway, this means that the THD of a driver can do up and down, not only based on the distortion but also by the total signal. That is why you see at the low end when a signal is filtered that the distortion goes up really fast. It is not the distortion which goes up (although that might also be the case), but the total signal does down.
That also means that when adding the distortions of a loud playing driver and a softer playing driver, that although indeed the raw distortions will add up (based on the phase of the respective distortion component), it will not influence the summed THD too much because the louder driver is dominating the output.
I would still add a series capacitor, because at some level the BA will not be able to "catch up" and the distortion will skyrocket. Also, when putting a BA in parallel with another driver without actually using it you increase your power consumption but not your output, so it is wasteful with a lower efficiency.
Hi thank you for your comment. I would like to include more measurements in the future, Maybe I will include them in my next VS video as I'd like to compare Galileo to hexa in terms of distortion performance.
Speaking of distortion, I think you may be correct as the distortion of both drivers is taken into account, although usually when more than one driver is playing at any time, depending on frequency the volume of each driver us appropriately halved so the distortion would be a sum of both, also depending on the harmonic of the distortion it is probably possible that the harmonic distortion could cancel each-other out creating less distortion at certain frequencies although I'm not sure on that. Driver distortion is not the same as clipping distortion, essentially driver distortion is based on harmonics or semi-tones so I think this is entirely possible but I could be wrong.
@@hi-friaudioman @Nur Ab-Sal thank you guys for your insights
I do wonder since you brought up the concept of "cancelling out" which I do somehow agree
I do have another thought that just came into mind
Wouldn't it be possible that the act of cancellation kinda acts as a dampener to the sound?
like we tend to generally think that foam and nozzles dampen sound
but would you say it's possible "X IEM" sounds dampened simply because the multiple drivers inside are cancelling each other when they go outside the nozzle?
though I still don't know it that's a good thing or a bad thing given how we have so many "technically good multi driver" IEM's
anyway just a thought for tonight haha
❤
Thanks for upload, man, for doing God work. Get well soon.
You time is more important than us.
Curious, what do you do for a living if you dont mind me asking? I also take meds but its for my ulcerative colitis which really sucks.
Fancy inear!!!!
In Hexa teardown you said that you will comparison them to Galileo, so how are they? I really like Hexa with TRI Clarion tips (they sounds like wide bore tips, but not killing that amount of bass), using them to listen music like Portishead, Lamb, Morcheeba and many other trip-hop alike female vocal bands.
But still, I want to try Galileo since its looks very nice and comfy, the cable with its hooks is perfect for me (I have s12 pro), the tuning looks better in 1.5-10k region and I dont really care about what's is happening after 10k since 90% of time I listen music on the go.
Don't be depressed, you make great reviews ! 😁
BTW, as I am in the positive thinking day, your so called potato camera works fine.
so is the Galileo really a cheaper imitation of the Elysian Diva? what improvements would the Diva have?
basically your social battery got drained and needs to be charged like most introverts.
What size are the metal screens? I managed to ruin mine playing around with tuning foam.
Potato camera is fine if it helps you to share some valuable information. 😉
Would you know where to find the foam bits stuck to the front of the DD?
Are you familiar with making diy iems? Since you have worked on qdc anole VX before it would be nice if you make a mini tutorial on diy VX with Knowles 31618 BAs!
Hi thank you. I do make DIY iems but I have not attempted a DIY VX. From what I know the VX uses 31618 for lows, dual 2389 for mids and and dual 31736 or equivalent for the highs. At some point I might try to make a DIY VX as I think it would be cool.
@@hi-friaudioman Thank you for your reply! Looking forward to the day you make a "custom" VX! haha
Wait I took apart a vx!!!!!???!!!!!?😮😮😮😮
44:40 it will certainly help in a drop test. 😂
Looks like an expensive 7hz zero or a slightly less warm Hola.
Yeah, for sure very similar to zero except for the treble area. I'd be curious to hear how they compare. Next I will be comparing Galileo to Hexa as I feel it is the closest competition.
Yeah hola is definitely a little more bass heavy, a little more skewed darker although I would say Galileo sounds warmer to my ears but that's just because of the treble roll-off compared ti the amount of mids.
I would probably say the hola is a darker, more treble heavy Galileo with a slightly gritty timbre.
The Kiwi Ears Quartet same price and it is a better choice
Nice. I'll have to check them out.
Crack open the Final e2000
40:15 potential variability issues here.
I aint paying 200$ for getting something slightly more than 100$ galileo
I really hate this Chinese scamming nonsense. The Japanese do have much more pride about their products. I recently bought the Denon ah-d9200 closed back and the amount of detail and craftsmanship is just amazing.
Honestly not a fan of any of the collab IEM's. I feel like they all try to make an IEM to a very specific target that other IEM's do better already. They might be slightly cheaper or seem a little fancy but in general they for me aren't great picks.
That's what I hate about Chinese iem. Dumpers and filters and all in one instead of a driver working with only the dd backside dumping and a crossover with capacitors and transistor to about dumping tuning air flow.
No wonder a +ve review.
Do I even need to state it. Lol
