Simgot Supermix 4 VS Ziigaat Odyssey 2

Youtube Video Summary

ZiiGaat × Hangout Audio Odyssey 2 brings a 1DD + 3BA configuration to the ~$220 bracket with a generous kit: big leather case, three tip sets, nozzle filters, and interchangeable plugs. The green/black glitter faceplate looks slick and the metal shell feels solid—though a touch less premium than some rivals—and the fit skews large, which may fatigue smaller ears. The new black-and-green cable feels nicer than older ZiiGaat parts, has some memory, but is fully usable.

Voicing is non-offensive and slightly warm-leaning, with sub-bass emphasis and more neutral mid-bass that trades punch for a thumpy, rumbly foundation. Mids are natural with fuller male vocals; female vocals read clean yet not especially gripping. Treble stays relaxed and smooth with enough air, though a faint edginess can pop up on orchestral recordings. Technicals sit around class-average, but the notably wide soundstage (≈4/5) and accurate imaging make it friendly for casual gaming.

Against peers, the original Odyssey runs a touch more mid-bass and treble, coming across less dull; it remains the safer pick for some. DUNU DaVinci at similar money hits harder, feels more exciting, and carries a nicer midrange; AFUL Performer 7 offers a mild-V that’s more balanced overall with a more natural bass but a brighter top end. Recommendation: choose Odyssey 2 if a warm, easy, sub-bass-tilted listen is the goal; skip it if chasing fun and energy. Like unflavored sparkling water, it’s refreshing yet low on flavor—ultimately a two-star value pick: solid and safe, but not especially distinctive.

SIMGOT Supermix 4 comes out swinging: a quad-brid with both planar and PZT drivers that somehow sounds buttery smooth and shockingly coherent—more like a single driver than a parts bin. Upper-mids and treble sit neutral and refined, avoiding the usual glare; tuning reads as Harman 2019 done right—what feels like endgame Harman. Versus sets like Supernova/Nova/Chopin, the SM4 brings cleaner extension, higher resolving power, and a smoother, more polished treble where cymbals and consonants land naturally. Note this is a pre-production unit, so final tuning may still shift.

Bass quantity measures lower than some peers, but that puts the low end in the background and boosts separation, layering, and transient clarity; texture is tidy, impact respectable, and decay well-judged. Vocals are a highlight—accurate, balanced, complete in extension, and consistently non-fatiguing. Treble adds a sprinkle of liveliness without turning sharp. In A/Bs: it feels like a cleaner, more energetic Origin; a smoother, more technical all-rounder than CK LVX/Pula (though those keep a fuller, dreamier flavor); trades blows with Dusk (Dusk hits harder and runs brighter, SM4 wins mid/upper-mid detail and vocal completeness); and out-separates Hype 4 while Hype 4 remains the bigger, bassier fun pick. As an all-rounder this is top-tier; if priced around Dusk/Hype 4 it’s a strong value, while a ~$500 tag would push it into diminishing returns.

Odyssey 2 shifts the OG’s recipe toward a more mid-centric, vocal-first tuning with a gentle sub-bass lift and smoother treble. Bass hits with less slam than the original but feels tighter, quicker, and cleaner, keeping texture competitive for the price. The top end is calmer—less bite, still adequately extended—trading sparkle for an easy, natural presentation.

Clarity steps up in the mids: vocals pop, separation improves, and detail comes through more plainly, while the OG keeps an edge in bass/treble “texture.” It’s a higher-volume scaler; give it juice and it opens up, especially for ballads, acoustic, indie, and pop—less ideal for hip-hop/R&B/jazz where extra weight and contrast help. Tip rolling that adds a touch of low-end/treble energy can inject the missing excitement without upsetting the balance.

Against similarly “safe” sets (Daybreak, P50), Odyssey 2 leans more vocal-centric with better bass texture; versus value champs (Supermix 4, Nova, Chopin), it sounds fuller and more natural but isn’t the value king. Lush gives more air up top, Arcanis/Luna serve as pricier “special sauce” paths if treble bite or OG-style warmth is desired. Verdict: a safer pick and polished all-rounder—objectively as good or slightly cleaner than OG—but for die-hard OG fans, more of a refined sidegrade than a direct, high-octane upgrade.

Build and comfort are front-and-center: a cozy shell with a metal faceplate, excellent ergonomics, and easy tip fitment. The red/blue two-pin sockets and the gunmetal cable add a premium touch, while the case is the familiar, functional Simgot pouch. Hype is warranted at least on construction—this is the most comfortable Simgot shell in the lineup so far.

Sonically, Supermix 4 follows a Harman-style curve with clean channel matching, solid resolution, and bass that balances sub-bass presence with controlled mid-bass. Treble can “touch the sun”—slightly bright on certain tracks—and the very low impedance makes it source/tip sensitive; tip rolling and even a basic Apple dongle often settle it down. Technicalities are strong for the price: clarity, shimmer on cymbals, and lifelike guitars impress, though some will crave a smoother top end.

Against peers, it surpasses EW200 in refinement and comfort and feels like a cleaner, easier-to-live-with replacement for EM6L. Compared with AFUL Explorer, this is the more forward/bright take versus Explorer’s laid-back vibe; versus CCA Hydro, vocals are steadier while Hydro punches harder down low. Kiwi Ears Quintet shows similar intent but has quirks around 10 kHz; DaVinci is a touch more refined yet pricier, and some will prefer Supermix 4’s shell and value. Net result: a strong recommendation for listeners wanting a comfortable, versatile, mildly vivid IEM that competes above its bracket—great for music and even gaming—so long as a hint of brightness is acceptable.

Ziigaat x Hangout Audio Odyssey 2 comes as a 1DD + 3BA hybrid in a fully metal shell with a matching metal nozzle, venting, and a comfortable, familiar Ziigaat fit. The package is generous: a handsome new case (seen on Luna/Crescent), 4.4 balanced with a swappable 3.5 adapter, multiple tips, and spare filters. The flat 2-pin cable looks good in black/green but is a bit memory-prone/tangle-happy; functional, yet a likely swap for cable sticklers.

Sonically, Odyssey 2 skews punchy in the bass with clean, thick mids and well-controlled upper-mids; the treble is smooth and gently rolled with limited airy “sparkle,” giving a more studio-like presentation. Versus the original Odyssey, this tuning is less U-shaped, with dialed-back excitement and upper treble—safer, calmer, and easier long-term. It’s a well-built, well-accessorized set at a reasonable price that many will find effortless to enjoy, even if thrill-seekers may want more bite up top.

In context, it parallels Lush on upper-mids (no urgent need to switch unless craving a touch more sub-bass or a different treble flavor), feels safer than Performer 7 (which has spicier 8k), and sits under the more vivid Odyssey (OG) and the slightly brighter, airier Crescent. It doesn’t reach the extra sub-bass/air of the Dusk DSP but improves on the original Dusk’s flatter treble character; meanwhile, Ziigaat’s Horizon trends richer and crisper up top. Overall verdict: a solid 8.0/10—mids are the star, bass is engaging if not rowdy, and upper-treble restraint keeps fatigue low. Not the most electric choice at ~$225, but a clean, safe, studio-leaning option with broad appeal.

Youtube Video Summary

Supermix 4 emerges as the standout of Simgot’s quartet for both fit and build, pairing a classy brushed bronze faceplate with the most refined tuning of the group. As a quad-brid, it delivers superior cleanliness, imaging, and depth perception versus EM6L, EA1000, and EA500LM, with tighter separation and more micro-detail; its presence region feels a touch more laid-back than EA1000, keeping gunshots from turning shouty. Footsteps could be slightly more elevated for sweaty lobbies, but that’s easily addressed with EQ while preserving the set’s natural balance.

Across titles it’s the most dependable all-rounder: in Valorant, the added cleanliness and precision outclass EA500LM (bloated, spicy gunshots) and nudge ahead of EM6L/EA1000; in Rainbow Six Siege, clarity, separation, and positional cues make it the clear pick. Call of Duty is closer—EA500LM is a solid budget choice and EA1000 can get intense—but Supermix 4 still pulls more footstep detail while staying composed; in Apex Legends it trades blows with EM6L yet edges ahead with extra information retrieval. Overall verdict: Supermix 4 wins, with EM6L in second, EA1000 around B-, and EA500LM around C+; a clean, precise, and thoroughly engaging pick for competitive and casual gaming alike.

Ziigaat Odyssey 2 lands as a premium-feeling set: a CNC-milled aluminum chassis with a sparkly blue/silver faceplate, solid two-pin cable with interchangeable 3.5/4.4 plugs, spare nozzle filters, and a roomy new brown carrying case. The stock cable is nice—though its green tint doesn’t quite match the shell’s aqua tone. Tip selection is generous (foam plus two silicone sets), and the newer silicone tips are a standout. Overall, a tidy package for the price.

Tuning follows the current “new meta”: energetic low end with a cleaner sub-bass attack/decay than sets like ZENs Top/Top Pro, which helps in games. Bass stays punchy yet controlled, so imaging and separation/layering come through well, though gunfire can still push forward. For pure music the bigger, rumblier sets may feel livelier, but for competitive play Odyssey 2 reads space more cleanly and keeps clutter down better than bass-heavier rivals.

Title by title: in Valorant it sounds natural and punchy with tighter gun reports and better map imaging—footsteps are a bit thicker and light taps could cut more—earning a B+. In Apex it’s cleaner than ZENs Top Pro and fine in 3v3s, but big third-party fights expose some separation limits; call it a strong B (bordering B+). In CS2 the positional read improves over ZENs Top Pro, though lighter surface cues and gunfire depth could be crisper—solid overall. Call of Duty plays to its strengths: warmer timbre, wide/deep stage, excellent layering during streaks, with only occasional gunfire masking—another B+. Net result: placed in the B+ tier on the WallHack list, at the lower edge bordering B, similar to the original Odyssey’s standing.

Youtube Video Summary

The SIMGOT SuperMix 4 pairs a lightweight metal and resin shell, good isolation and a decent cable with a mostly Harman-style, vocal-forward tuning. Bass comes across as clean, clear and reasonably detailed with no bleed into the mids, but slam, rumble and physical impact are noticeably softer than expected, especially compared with the cheaper EA500 LM and other sets on a similar curve. The low end feels slightly below average in attack and weight, so even hip-hop and pop tracks that usually hit hard come across as polite and less engaging.

The midrange is clean and clear with a strong focus on female vocals and upper mids, yet the 3–6 kHz region can easily drift into a shouty or shrill character depending on volume, genre and recording, leading to listening fatigue on K-pop, J-pop, rock and brighter material. Treble is detailed, airy and full of shimmer, but the overall presentation does not feel fully natural or cohesive, becoming harsh when the volume is raised and a bit strange when kept low. Technicalities are strongest in the upper mids and treble, while soundstage size is essentially average for the price range.

In direct comparisons, sets like EA500 LM, Nova, AFUL Explorer and Binary Chopin offer more convincing bass slam, more natural tonality and a more engaging, coherent presentation at similar or even lower prices, making the SuperMix 4 feel more like a sidegrade than a true upgrade around the $150 mark. SuperMix 4 provides slightly higher perceived technicalities in specific upper-mid and treble regions, but this comes at the cost of greater fatigue and a very smooth, almost boring overall character that struggles to excite across diverse genres. For most listeners, alternatives in this segment give better value, leaving SuperMix 4 mainly for brand loyalists who specifically want a cleaner, brighter, vocal-focused take and can tolerate the sharper ear-gain region.

Ziigaat Odyssey 2 hits with that classic brand playbook: a comfy shared shell, a chunky but super-flexible cable with a huge swappable plug, and a surprisingly generous tip selection and replacement filters. The driver pack is 1DD + 3BA, easy to drive, and happy on everything from a simple dongle to a beefier pre-out chain. Build is familiar but the green/black cable adds some flair. Pop on Dunu S&S tips and the fit/seal click into place—no fuss, no drama.

The sound is where it goes from good to phenomenal. Resolution and clarity come with laser-cut separation and a rare sense of cohesion—those tiny electronic textures sit perfectly in space. Bass is solid and authoritative without turning the set into a basshead toy; it supports rather than smothers. Vocals are forward and engaging, yet staging still feels like a well-treated studio—neither claustrophobic nor echo-y. Treble wakes up with cleaner amplification, getting a touch more sparkle while the whole signature stays remarkably smooth from top to bottom. Value is the kicker: at roughly $225–$250 it performs like a $400–$600 set, with little to nitpick beyond the samey accessories. Easily one of the strongest Ziigaat tunings to date and a buy-with-confidence recommendation.

Youtube Video Summary

Odyssey 2 brings a metal-bottom shell and a green/black modular cable, but the headline is the retune. The aim—relax the Odyssey’s hot mid/upper treble—works, yet energy shifts toward roughly 2.5 kHz and the mid-bass dip becomes shallower. On the ear this reads as sharper edges with a leaner body, and at moderate to higher volume the upper mids rise faster than the top end supports.

The result is a mild treble imbalance: vocals turn a touch thin, upper-air feels reduced, and the set encourages lowering the volume rather than opening up. While clarity remains “hybrid-like,” extension has less sparkle, and the presentation can feel compressed compared to the original tuning.

Technicalities also take a small step back—less separation and layering, a stage that projects smaller, and imaging that’s tidy but not standout. With a bit of PEQ to add body and a hint more upper-treble air, Odyssey 2 comes closer to expectations, but out of the box the original Odyssey still reads as the more naturally balanced pick.

Youtube Video Summary

The Ziigaat Odyssey 2 arrives as a collab between Ziigaat and Hangout Audio (tied to Crinacle), essentially a Crin-influenced set in disguise; it’s a 1DD + 3BA hybrid priced around $250. Accessories are thoughtful—three ear-tip sets, spare adhesive filters, and swappable 3.5/4.4 terminations—though the long, friction-fit plug feels awkward. The metal shell is medium-sized with a short nozzle for a shallow fit; comfort is easy, stability average, and the thin green cable is softer than prior Ziigaat attempts with a chin slider that actually holds.

Tonally it lands squarely in the tilted diffuse-field “meta” neutral camp: natural vocals, tame upper-treble, and a slight 4–6 kHz lift that adds clarity and a more contrasty/clinical edge without harshness. Imaging and separation are clean for the price, but the sub-bass-focused boost leaves the low end marshmallowy—tactile yet soft, with kick drums short on slam. Overall balance is convincing and easy to live with, just not especially exciting.

Versus Ziigaat Lush, Odyssey 2 is crisper and more defined where Lush sounds darker, smoother, and a bit low-res, though Lush hits mid-bass a touch harder. Against Softears Volume S (costlier), Volume S wins on bass grip and midrange texture, sounding fuller and more engaging while Odyssey 2 stays cleaner but more clinical. Conclusion: a very good set in a crowded mold—3/5 for a refined meta tune with agreeable timbre but modest bass impact.
