SIMGOT Un-Official EA500 CULT THREAD


I guess I am indeed full integrated into Simgot’s sounds so far. And yes I can say the EM6Ls don’t disappoint and that is coming from my first impressions so far for I am currently trying to break these in for each use and just let the music play without overanalyzing too much. Dammit Simgot, you did it again! Though I think the main gripe and concerns that I have for these would be the QDC style connection (Why?) and the nozzles lacking a lip that holds the tips, it might work well on the stock tips but I am quite worried about the other tips, especially to the ones that have been used for a while.

Overall though, it’s so great to have.

There was no room in the shell that was the answer I received, also has the same nozzle concerns but nothing fell off so all good!

From the rest of the post, I’m assuming this was mean to be “don’t disappoint”?

Thanks for sharing your feedback on them!

Yeah it’s a typo, I meant don’t disappoint. I have this bad habit of words thought that I typed in my mind even though in the current present state I haven’t typed that specific word yet. But yeah so far I am enjoying this set along with the EA500 man.

Yeah it would makes sense for these to have no space anymore in the shell since it does have 1D and 4BAs in there. This is just me speaking from experiencing used to having IEMs with QDC connectors that’s all and to be honest, it didn’t went well when it comes to experience so I am hoping I can be more careful with these and not break it.

Would probably get an aftermarket cable though for a better feel, look and fit I guess.

Hi, since we all have different ears and sound perception and preference, EQ should be an option for almost everyone and every iems.
Not so many testers are taking that into consideration.

By “body aperture”, are you referring to the back of the nozzle? Do you mind sharing a pic of this?


Picture supplied by @ToneDeafMonk (503 in this thread) when I asked the same question of him.

That is what shocking about the EA500s, I still cannot believe they are a single dynamic driver IEM, for these are just beyond those in terms of the sounds I have been hearing from these. Ever since I bought my own set, to this day I am still using it and that is the fact that it is not modded as well.

Really a killer set for the budget and I am glad I bought it, for it’s still really surprises for me.

hi all. I purchased these headphones. They please with their sound, but I want to reduce the peak by 3-5khz. Tell me what I need to buy for this and how to apply it? I contacted Simgot, but they cannot send the tuning kit to my country (Germany). I want to order filters separately from Aliexpress.

Order 5x5 Medium Density Foams

Order 4.8mm Mesh

I’m lead to believe that Simgot have released the EA500LM

I decided a while back that after I got the LM I would mod my OG EA500. Even the tape mod was impressive. It gives them enough bass to be fun and might move them ahead of the Olina SE in my under $100 ranking. The brighter tunings have been in my 3,4,5 spots with Artti R1 and Kailua in 1 and 2. This might mean I have to do this on the LM too.
