Haha, with this hobby, you must be pleased with what you have and appreciate the music, or you will lose your wallet. There's a new gem every week. Another great review Andy!
@@Redistributable I just got both 😂 MP145 sounds a tad more expensive, but P1Max sooooo lighter. If the weight is your concern buy p1. If not definitely MP145. And shell quality wise MP145 hands down much better and expensive look and feel.
I see improvements on your content thank you for the good quality my friend😊 i also want to suggest add a demo sound test like dans audio reviewer style 😊
Bro Andy Tin Hifi P1 Max II VS Thie Audio Legacy 4. Which IEM is the winner in this battle according to your expertise , preference & opinion ? Thank you Bro Andy 🙏👍
Thanks! This giant Panda is more similar to OG Zetian being dynamically vibrant and rich, MP145 is a bit different for being the one still most technically adept magnetic planar around, with that electrostatic like transient speed and imaging. I will just say both Giant Panda and MP145 are both excellent and complement each other for what they do best
@@donglemadness Thanks for the detailed reply as always. If I'm looking for the technicality, bass quality and that buttery smooth treble, do you think MP145's improvement over the OG Zetian on these aspects is high enough to justify the purchase?
Hi Andi - I have the exellent shures se 846(gen II) . It use to be regarded as one of the best iem -but it neither magnaplanner nor electrostatic- but the basic dynamic drivers combination balanced and packed together to make for the se846 - which are one of the best headphones i had or heard. Now im using it with simgot dew4X+ google pixel 7 (with the shures costs more then the 2other - embarrassing to tell)and the combination is outstanding. However- will it make sense to have one of those iem as an another pair( and no, idont mean shures 1500…) ? What are the pros and cons you can anticipate - given the pixel 7 and simgots dew4x remains the source and dac? A second question i have - ( i hope i dont pushing my luck..): I nead in addition an over the ear closed back headphones. They might be wired( albeit the possibility of playing both sides like with the focal bythes is tempting as it is expensive) . In your opinion- which wired closed back headphones would serve me the best with this google+simgot hifi audio system? Thank you - and keep on being the best. Good for health, you know. Yoav
Ok so you want to get another IEM to complement the 846, I might recommend if you don't mind spending $599 get the highly versatile I/O Volare, that thing will synergize with your DEW4X and Pixel perfectly. Or at least get Tanchjim Origin, another of my favorites. As for closed back headphones, I will recommend what I use personally, something that you can adapt to use the 4.4mm BAL of your DEW4X, at the minimum get FiiO JT1 and then pair it with HiFiMan Sundara BAL cable which you will need to buy separately, prefer OCC copper type cable. I would recommend Sony MDR 7506 or Fostex T40RP MK3 but they come hard wired in 3.5mm SE which will not be optimal to drive off 3.5mm SE of DEW4X
@@donglemadness again-Andy- for such a Quick and detailed response - i think that besides your integrity , you are not familliar with the art of “corner cutting”.. may GOD keep you so. ( and, btw, will a 4.4mm to 3.5mm will enable the SUNDARA to be used with other 3.5mm outputs without compromise signal value? (see-im taking your recommendations very seriously - so they have practical implications… -y.h '0r.)
@@yoavhal6050 Yes, an adapter from 4.4mm to 3.5mm for usage on SE DAC/Amp is totally okay, I do it all the time. But just be wary to never do 3.5mm to 4.4mm BAL adapter, you can subject the DAC/Amp to overheating risks
Hey man, again.. it's not related to the video.. but just out of curiosity. Why don't you have a review of Elysian iem? I mean.. you guys are the same malaysian, right? I mean.. As a Korean, I don't like and know all Korean audio products. And Korean audio brands don't give samples to all korean reviewers... but... um.. I'm just curious.
Off the topic, but is MIAD01 really play Bypass bit perfect through Android? I read some post say that they test and MIAD01 isn't bypass Thank you for reading Andy
Why does it say max 10mw? I have 400mw per channel.. 280 on single ended. I have never had a problem with burning out voice coil or anything, on any set I have.. Should we just ignore this number? Is that phone still eating memory cards?
Your unit will pull as much as it needs to do what you want it to do. Just because your amp is able to provide 280/400mW doesn't mean your IEM/HP will be provided with that at all times. It is just what's available from the amp. If your IEMs only require 5mW per channel , your amp will provide just that. But you know you'll have plenty of power budget if the situation calls for it.
@@donglemadness I mean absolutely no disrespect, but I think you might have severe hearing loss in the upper treble regions and even if you're listening at around 75db (at 1khz) on the KSE1500s, you are giving yourself hearing damage because of the 19db elevated treble. The hearing loss in the treble would also track with you giving the Sivga Nightingale a 10 for tuning because it would imitate a more normal treble rolloff relative to the upper mids/lower treble. I know tuning is subjective, but that's mostly because of different levels of hearing loss and the KSE1500 has an objectively dangerous amount of treble relative to something with actual normal tuning and it's so much treble that it would take just a couple of minutes to start causing damage. Again, no disrespect, but it all kinda adds up and makes sense if you ask me.

Lol. True indeed. And thanks!
Already have MP145 and just bought P1 MaxII after this review. Will let you know later❤
Congratulations, share your thoughts later
@callmemrdee, hey, have you tested it yet? I'm currently choosing between MP145 and P1 MaxII.

Gran review Andy! El p1 max anterior fue muy bueno también! Tenía un sonido sumamente placentero.
Thanks, yes a friend of mine also mentioned that the P1 Max 1 was already amazing too
@@donglemadness hope you get it some day to compare. Will be interesting to hear what do you think about both sets.

Thanks and noted. I will always try to improve my contents. Have a great weekend there
Awesome review, Andy! 💯
Thanks! Cheers 😁
P1 max was very good too
Great review Andy!
Thanks!
Hope you will review the Pula PA02 next Andy!
Thanks. It is in my wish list

Thank you Bro Andy 🙏👍
Thanks, I can only compare with what I have tried and I haven't tried Legacy 4 unfortunately
great reviews all of them! will you review Akoustyx S-6 ?
Thanks!. For now no plan yet for Akoustyx S-6
Thanks!
Thanks again for your generosity
Amazing review as always. Is this or the MP145 worth getting if I already have the OG Zetian?

Hey Andy can you please check the Jcally AP20 DAC? Is a dual cs43143 and Bluetooth. Looks like a good competitor to the hiby w3 II
Yes I am looking at that AP20 too, plan to get one very soon
still waiting fiio f19 also have u ever tried bayerdynamic xlento 2?
No I haven't tried Xelento 2
Andy please make a IEM ranking List like your dongle one .... please 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Still working on it
@@donglemadness sorry i disturbed you so much because i cant wait to see the list he he😄
Hi andy, which is the best gaming iem under 150 dollars?
BASN Mix-PD or CVJ Assassin
Have you tried the P1 Max 1? They use the same shells (with different design).
Unfortunately not yet
Hey Andy, any updates on fiio ka11? It has so much potential, i was wondering if it had been fixed with some software updates o something...
No updates on my side, dead still. Perhaps FiiO might have released newer FW, worth to check their site
Ok I'll stick with the MP145

Hey man, again.. it's not related to the video.. but just out of curiosity. Why don't you have a review of Elysian iem?
I mean.. you guys are the same malaysian, right?
I mean.. As a Korean, I don't like and know all Korean audio products. And Korean audio brands don't give samples to all korean reviewers...
but... um.. I'm just curious.
It's simple, I would love to review it if I can get a review sample, to buy one just for testing/review, it's a bit of a stretch for me now
Off the topic, but is MIAD01 really play Bypass bit perfect through Android?
I read some post say that they test and MIAD01 isn't bypass
Thank you for reading Andy
From what ive tried, it does.
Yes Bitperfect working as expected on my MIAD01
@@donglemadness thanks for your reply, time for listen bit perfect from TH-cam 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What happened to the Q15? Is it already shelved?
Nope. I have more DAC/Amps in front of me here so I rotate as much as possible. Q15 is here with me and pretty much actively used
Why does it say max 10mw? I have 400mw per channel.. 280 on single ended. I have never had a problem with burning out voice coil or anything, on any set I have.. Should we just ignore this number? Is that phone still eating memory cards?
Just ignore the mW numbers, sometimes they don't make much sense. I haven't tried new SDCard yet on my MIAD01
Your unit will pull as much as it needs to do what you want it to do. Just because your amp is able to provide 280/400mW doesn't mean your IEM/HP will be provided with that at all times. It is just what's available from the amp. If your IEMs only require 5mW per channel , your amp will provide just that. But you know you'll have plenty of power budget if the situation calls for it.
Genuine question: how the hell does the KSE1500 get a 10 for tuning? Those things are easily one of the worst tunings I've ever heard in an IEM.
It is the very BEST I have ever heard from all sorts of audio gears I have ever used in my life
@@donglemadness I mean absolutely no disrespect, but I think you might have severe hearing loss in the upper treble regions and even if you're listening at around 75db (at 1khz) on the KSE1500s, you are giving yourself hearing damage because of the 19db elevated treble.

This vs KZ PR3?
P1 Max 2 is better tuned overall and not as aggressive/energetic as PR3
Confusing naming
Might get this instead of MP145. The sheer size of MP145 is scaring my virgin ears.
Yes, it is a lot smaller than MP145 physically
