Very resolving for its price, great value. A warmer EA1000 with a slight decrease in separation and resolution, but warmer with more bass (same bass quality). Not as sparkly and resolving as the EA1000s, treble is a little sharp/not as refined, but a better all-rounder. Has unit variance, lots of brighter units.

The Simgot EA500LM offers a versatile listening experience primarily through its three interchangeable nozzles, which significantly alter the sound signature. With the gold nozzles (red ring), the tuning leans warm and smooth, reducing treble harshness, while the silver nozzles with black rings emphasize clarity and detail at the risk of sibilance in upper mids. The bass is controlled and textured, though sub-bass extension rolls off slightly, and the midrange remains clean but recessed in the U-shaped profile.

Technical performance is competitive for the price, with a wide soundstage and precise imaging, though complex tracks can challenge separation. The treble energy varies by nozzle: the black-ring silver nozzles deliver the most sparkle but may fatigue, while the gold nozzles offer greater balance. Despite the driver's quick transient response, some users note graininess in cymbals and a lack of refinement compared to hybrids like the Truthear Hexa.

Comfort and build are highlights, with an all-metal shell that fits securely despite being a fingerprint magnet. Isolation is average due to venting, making it less ideal for noisy environments. While the included cable and tips are functional, tip rolling improves fit and tonal balance. The EA500LM excels with genres benefiting from its vocal clarity and airiness, though its tuning inconsistencies and treble quirks limit universal appeal.

Olina/Oxygen like tuning, which I generally like. Bass is midbass focused with sub-bass roll off. Very punchy and energetic sound with oodles of impact. Very close to the Olina with the mods applied. A better fit and possibly better build than Olina with an interchangeable nozzle makes this interesting. Unfortunately the nozzles basically don't do anything but might even be the source of some imbalance. Overall sounds a tad bit crisper and tighter than Olina, but the difference is small. Techs are also a step down from Olina. Less sub-bass than Olina, but this allows the midbass to pop more, which I like for certain tracks - nicely textured and impactful but not overpowering. Treble can be a little spicy - a bit unnatural sounding in the treble, especially for percussion but overall is very fun to listen to. Unfortunately, QC is not great - my unit had channel imbalance.

Probably the most detailed focused set at its price range at the cost of sounding off in the upper treble region. Probably the (one of the) most value pick at its price range.
