Youtube Video Summary
Packaging overdelivers: a modular cable with 3.5/4.4/USB-C and an included dongle that gets loud enough, seven pairs of silicone tips plus foam, and a small zip case (nice but tight). The shell looks premium with a depth-effect faceplate and a metal nozzle (≈6.1 mm lip); fit is snug though potentially big for smaller ears. Build and accessories feel thoughtful at the price, with only a slightly rubbery cable texture to nitpick.
Tuning is a smooth, vocal-focused, meta-inspired balance: refined mids, a friendly yet detailed top end, and a clean, controlled low end. Bass quality is textured and separated but intentionally polite—not for hip-hop/EDM impact chasers. The midrange brings clear, natural tone without shout; both male and female vocals sit forward. The treble is the star: highly resolving, airy, and surprisingly non-fatiguing for the four micro-planars, avoiding metallic glare while adding tasteful sparkle.
Technically, separation and resolution impress, with a mild cohesiveness quirk where the treble detail outshines bass/mids. Versus peers: CK2V is more V-shaped and brighter-hot; SL224 sounds more natural. Moondrop Meteor offers smoother treble and mid timbre, but SL224’s bass quality and value punch back. Dunu Brain Dance is technically stronger; SL224 wins on tonality. SoftEars Studio 4 remains more lifelike/cohesive; SL224 brings more air and fun. AFUL Performer 7 is the better all-rounder; SL224 is for lighter-bass, vocal clarity. Kiwi Ears Astral is airier/more micro-detailed; SL224 plays it safer up top with more forward vocals. Recommendation: vocal lovers and treble-sensitive listeners wanting detail without sting. Not for bassheads or warm-tilted tastes. Final verdict: a confident 4/5 and the most compelling Myer release so far.

The EPZ P50 is a tribrid with a 10 mm dynamic driver, two balanced armatures, and two micro planar drivers, implemented in a semi-open back shell and a three-way crossover—an uncommon configuration at this price tier. Listings and spec sheets place impedance at 20 Ω and sensitivity around 106 dB, with interchangeable 3.5/4.4 mm plugs and 0.78 mm 2-pin connectors, positioning it as a flexible daily-carry IEM near the $200 mark.
Subjectively, multiple reviews converge on a neutral-with-bass-boost presentation: sub-bass is tight and weighty when called for, mids stay clear and slightly forward, and treble is extended with extra energy from the planar tweeters. This yields a clean center image and articulate vocals without obvious mid-bass bloom, though the upper-treble emphasis can read “sharper” on some recordings.
Technical performance is competitive for the class: reviewers note solid imaging, above-average separation, and a stage that feels wider than typical sealed IEMs—qualities plausibly aided by the semi-open design and multi-way damping. Trade-offs include reduced isolation versus closed shells and a treble tilt that may fatigue treble-sensitive listeners at high volumes, but overall resolution and micro-detail retrieval punch above its price.

The MYER SLIIVO SL224 is an eight-driver hybrid built around 2DD+2BA+4 micro-planar units with a 36 Ω impedance and 108 dB sensitivity, positioned at an MSRP around $269.99 (often on sale near $230). This configuration, including 10 mm and 6 mm dynamic drivers, suggests an intent toward a clean, extended response rather than a bass-dominant tuning. Specs & pricing: 2DD+2BA+4 micro-planar, 10 mm + 6 mm DD, swappable 3.5/4.4/Type-C cable, sale price ~$229.49, regular $269.99.
Subjective reports converge on a balanced/neutral tonality with energetic yet controlled low end from the dual-DD array, lively mids, and an airy but not piercing treble. Mobileaudiophile characterizes bass as fast and powerful with engaging mids and treble, yielding a coherent, never-boring balance; this aligns with the SL224’s technical focus rather than coloration. Tonality & balance references: balanced tuning, lively mids, airy treble; bass praised for speed and control.
Technical impressions emphasize dynamics, detail retrieval, and cleanliness, with community notes calling out tight, quick mid-bass and respectable separation; limitations include occasional midrange forwardness that can mask other bands on some tracks and a stage that reads more precise than expansive. These traits point to strong value in the ~$230 bracket for listeners prioritizing clarity and midrange presence over sheer sub-bass weight. Community impressions & caveats: tight mid-bass, good dynamics; mids can get a bit forward depending on material.
