Which combination: Simgots EA500LM vs Truthear Zero: Blue2

IEMs / Other In-Ear Monitors (IEM)

I mostly listen to pop music and like slightly stronger bass (but not the heavy rock type). I also listen a lot to sentimental female vocals.

I can’t make up my mind which combination below to choose:

（A）Simgots EA500LM + Simgots DEW4X dongle + Calendula 24-Core 4.4mm 0.78mm Balanced Cable + Honor Magic 8 Pro smart phone (on Spotify)

（B）Truthear Zero: Blue2 + Dunu DTC480 Pro dongle + Calendula 24-Core 4.4mm 0.78mm Balanced Cable + Honor Magic 8 PRO smart phone (on Spotify)

For your preferences I’d choose the Zero: Blue2 combination. It should give you the stronger low bass you want while keeping female vocals smooth enough for longer listening.

I wouldn’t let the balanced cable or dongle decide this comparison; both dongles should provide adequate power, and the IEM tuning will make the much larger difference. Choose the EA500LM instead only if you prefer a brighter, more forward presentation with extra vocal presence and less emphasis on bass.

Thanks. I wonder how is the bass of Zero:Blue2 compared to my in-ear Bose QC Ultra?
