Thanks for the reply, man. Saying it’s the best under $1000 is quite a statement, but I can’t disagree. I have one myself, but I’ve been swamped with work and dealing with a family health issue that required travel.
Here are my early impressions: The build and design are excellent. The bass is fantastic—deep, rich, and textured, with a satisfying rumble that doesn’t overpower the mids. The mid-range is the highlight for me, with vocal forwardness that’s reminiscent of the Studio 4, without any harshness or sibilance. The detail and separation are impressive, and it has a wide soundstage. My only wish is for a bit more air, but otherwise, I have no complaints.
I agree it’s superior to the Chopin in every aspect—more detailed without the BA timbre, coldness, or thin vocals. It’s also better than the DaVinci for me, suiting my preferences for a wider range of music. The DaVinci sounded overly bassy in comparison, and the soundstage was too intimate. The vocals don’t have the same clarity or balance of the DynaQuattro. I need more time to compare it to the Juzear 61T, which is currently my reference at this price point. Do you have any thoughts on how it compares to the 61T?
The Juzear 61T is more neutral. The Dynaquatro to me hits that perfect balance of fun vs neutral for my taste. I got to test some fir iems today and man. Dynaquatro just crushes them.
I’m not saying it is drastically better than other, but to me it’s a special set and does a lot of right things. Basically perfect bass, mids, and only minor issue is the air. A lot of good iems out now. Fun times.
It definitely needs more air. I Coukd see the next iem that they do being exceptional by adding an est, pzt, or tia driver. Could be great.
Updated w search function yeah!
My OXIX XM5 is my goto then N3Ultra then Kann Max Then M5Ultra then IBasso DX180 thats how i cycle though my daps, for best pairing.
I use Qudelix T71 > Dita Navigator > XD05 Pro > D16 > RME ADI 2 Pro.
I start with the least powerful (Navigator) and what I consider to be neutral (T71) and then move to more powerful sources to check how the IEM / HP reacts to power.
I pair all my IEMs with LP6K + Aroma a100tb in the end for the ultimate sound test.
I’m yet to find another amp that is as good as a100tb for IEMs.
What is it that you prefer over the DaVinci, asking politely just to know as I was considering the DaVinci based on what I’ve hear about its bad control, tone and texture and decent sub bass, mids that are quick punch and treble that doesn’t bite too hard.
