SIMGOT EW100P VS Tanchjim Zero Ultima

Youtube Video Summary

Tanchjim Zero Ultima comes in dirt-cheap and unapologetically simple: an attached 3.5 mm cable with inline mic, featherweight shells (~2.3 g), and hilariously oversized nozzles for such tiny housings. Build cues scream budget—y-split quirks and all—but the box stuffs in a plush pouch, a stack of tips, and a manual with more pages than dollars. Under the hood sits a 10 mm double-chamber DD (DMT4), and it can want a bit of juice, yet nothing a normal source can’t handle.

Sonically, this is shock therapy for the price bracket: huge, cinematic soundstage that projects like a mini “screen” in front, with a surprisingly balanced tuning—not a bass cannon, not a treble sabre. Kick drums land with a clean thump, strings float way out without turning sharp, and the overall presentation stays cohesive instead of “fake-detail” crispy. It’s the kind of set that makes $20–$25 feel like a typo, happily chewing through AC/DC, Barry White, Pink Floyd, and Deadmau5 without crying mercy.

Value play is off the charts: call it a $40 performer sold for pocket change, perfect as a daily beater or keychain set. If a detachable cable is a must, the Bunny sibling stands by, but Zero Ultima’s stage and easygoing balance are the party trick here. Bottom line: audiophile nonsense in the best way—ridiculous width, no harshness tax, and an infectious fun factor that embarrasses pricier toys.

Youtube Video Summary

Tanchjim Zero Ultima follows Origin almost one-to-one, right down to the single dynamic driver and the easy bullet-style fit with inline mic and fixed cable. The tonal balance skews neutral-bright: sub-bass is modest, the 2–5 kHz region sits a bit high, and upper treble adds extra sheen, which can make notes feel lighter in weight and vocals a touch lean.

The upside is a competent driver that takes EQ gracefully. Pulling the 2–5 kHz down a few dB (below a Harman-like target), trimming the upper treble ~1–2 dB, and adding a small sub-bass lift steers the presentation toward the more natural, Oxygen-style balance with fuller vocal body and cleaner timbre. Stock tuning is a bit bright, but with that simple tweak Zero Ultima becomes a very pleasant, well-behaved daily set.
