VERY VERY GOOD AND THE CABLE IS REALLY NICE
IT’S MADE OF KEVLAR I THINK IT’S PRETTY GOOD RIGHT
SO I’M GOING TO LISTEN TO ALL MY FAVORITE SONGS
AND I’LL LET YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT I
THINK THIS NM2 SOUNDS SO BE RIGHT BACK
ALL RIGHT GUYS SO I’VE LISTENED TO ALL MY
FAVORITE SONGS ON THESE NM2S AND THESE ARE THE
SETUP THAT I USE THE IPHONE 7 IFI HIP DAC 2 WITH
STOCK SETTINGS NO XBASS AND NO POWER MATCH AND
I’M USING THE STOCK CABLE STOCK EARTIPS AND THE
NM2S AND I’M LISTENING TO APPLE MUSIC FIRSTLY
LET’S GO THROUGH THE SPECS OF THESE NM2S THESE
ARE ONE DYNAMIC DRIVER IEM WITH A 10 MILLIMETER
DRIVER INSIDE AND IT’S GOT AN IMPEDANCE OF 18
OHMS AND SENSITIVITY OF 108 AND A FREQUENCY
RESPONSE OF 10 TO 40 000 KILOHERTZ AND THESE ARE
VERY COMFORTABLE IN MY EARS I’VE WORN THEM FOR A
FEW HOURS STRAIGHT WITH NO PHYSICAL FATIGUE SO
I WOULD SAY IT FITS MY EAR VERY WELL IT’S GOT A
LITTLE BIT OF FIN AT THE BACK HERE BUT YEAH IT
DOESN’T WOBBLE AND IT GIVES ME A VERY GOOD SEAL
RIGHT SO HOW DO THEY SOUND LET’S TALK ABOUT
THE TUNING SO THIS IS A BIT OF A U-SHAPED
TUNING AND IT’S GOT A IT REPRESENTS A VERY
REALISTIC LISTENING EXPERIENCE AND IT’S VERY
ANALYTICAL THE TONE AND TIMBRE IS VERY NATURAL
VERY WARM AND IT’S VERY REAL WHEN YOU LISTEN TO
SONGS ON THESE IEMS OKAY THE SUB BASS IS SOLID
IT’S IT’S GOT THE RUMBLE AND IS CONTROLLED AND
IT DOES NOT BLEED TO THE MIDS AND IT’S VERY
RESOLUTE AND A BIT OF A WARMTH FOR THE SUB BASS
THE MID BASS MID BASS IS A BIT RECESSED AND BUT
IT’S GOT SUFFICIENT UM IMPACT AND IT’S VERY FAST
AS WELL FOR THE MID BASS SO THE DECAY OF THE NOTE
IS VERY FAST SO YOU CAN TELL THAT IT’S VERY
A REALISTIC THUMP WHEN THERE’S A KICK DRUM
OR A BASS GUITAR WHEN THEY STRUM YOU CAN HEAR
THE DECAY OF THE NOTE IS VERY FAST AND IT’S VERY
REALISTIC AND IT DOES NOT BLEED UH TO THE MIDS
OKAY THE MIDS MIDS AGAIN UM SAME THING IT’S
GOT A VERY REALISTIC SOUND IT IT’S NOT WARM
NOT VERY WARM IT’S JUST IT’S GOT THAT LITTLE
BIT OF WARMTH THERE BUT IT’S VERY REALISTIC
AND BECAUSE OF THAT THE NOTE WEIGHT IS
JUST A LITTLE BIT ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
AND THE THE REPRESENTATION OF THE
INSTRUMENTS IS VERY REALISTIC AND NATURAL
FOR THE VOCALS OKAY VOCALS AND MALE VOCALS AND
FEMALE VOCALS BASICALLY SAME THING YOU WHEN
YOU LISTEN TO VOCALS ON THESE NM2 YOU GET A
VERY REALISTIC UH SOUND IT’S NOT A VERY NEUTRAL
SOUND IT’S NOT LINEAR IT’S GOT A LITTLE BIT
OF WARMTH TO IT BUT THEN AGAIN IT SOUNDS VERY
ANALYTICAL AND VERY REAL SO BECAUSE OF THAT
WHEN MALE VOCALS SING YOU DON’T GET A VERY
AUTHORITATIVE FEEL IT’S NOT SOOTHING SOMETIMES
UH IT THEY THEY MAY JUST SOUND AS WHAT THEY ARE
AND YOU YOU MIGHT FEEL THAT IT’S A BIT LIGHT
YOU KNOW BECAUSE NO COLOR HAS BEEN ADDED AND NO
WARMTH HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE THE WEIGHT
OF THE MALE VOCAL SO SOMETIMES IT MAY FIND A
LITTLE BIT LIGHT SAME FOR FEMALE VOCALS SOME
FEMALE VOCALS ON THE LOWER OCTAVES THEY MAY
JUST SOUND A BIT LIGHT BUT THEN AGAIN ON THE
OTHER END THEY MAY THEY MAY SOUND A BIT BRIGHT
BECAUSE IT’S VERY REAL AND CLEAR AND CLEAN SO
FOR FEMALE VOCALS WHEN THEY SING YOU YOU MIGHT
HEAR SOME NOTES THAT ARE PRETTY BRIGHT SOME MAY
FIND IT A BIT SHOUTY OKAY TREBLE TREBLE HAS GOT
VERY GOOD EXTENSION IT’S CLEAN IT’S CLEAR AND
IT’S REAL SO UH VERY AN ANALYTICAL TREBLE HERE
THE DECAY OF THE NOTE IS VERY GOOD IT’S GOT
VERY GOOD EXTENSION AND SIMPLE STRIKES AND SNARES
ELECTRIC GUITARS THEY REPRESENT THESE
INSTRUMENTS VERY WELL AT THE TREBLE REGION
AND BECAUSE OF THAT THE POORLY RECORDED TRACKS
ESPECIALLY AT THE TREBLE REGION YOU CAN CLEARLY
HEAR THE POOR RECORDING OF THAT TRACK ITSELF
SO IT’S YEAH FOR CERTAIN POORLY RECORDED TRACKS
YOU CAN HEAR A LITTLE BIT OF
HARSHNESS FOR THESE TRACKS OKAY SO
SOUND STAGE SOUND STAGE IS MORE OF AN INTIMATE
SOUND STAGE IT’S YOU’VE GOT THE 3D
FEEL TO IT AND THE SOUND DO COME MORE OF THE SIDES
AND THE TOP AND A LITTLE BIT ON THE BOTTOM ON THE
GROUND THE DEPTH OF THE SOUND STAGE IS PRETTY
OKAY BUT THE LAYERING IS JUST MAYBE AT ONE PLANE
NOT MUCH OF A LAYERING FOR THAT SOUND STAGE
AND OVERALL THE COHERENCE OF THE SOUND IS
IS PRETTY GOOD AND IT GIVES YOU THAT FEELING THAT
YOU ARE LISTENING TO THESE YOUR MUSIC IN A NICE
PRIVATE ROOM OKAY AND BECAUSE OF THAT IMAGING
IS PRETTY GOOD AS WELL BECAUSE YOU’VE GOT THIS
3D SOUND STAGE THAT YOU GET AND IT’S
IT POSITIONS THE INSTRUMENTS PRETTY WELL AT
DIFFERENT LOCATIONS YOU CAN HEAR WHERE THE DRUMS
ARE WHEN THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE AND THE VOCALS ARE
MORE IN YOUR HEAD SO IMAGING IS PRETTY OKAY OKAY
DETAIL RETRIEVAL AND RESOLUTION SO AS I MENTIONED
THESE HAVE VERY CLEAN AND CLEAR SOUND SO THE
RESOLUTION ON THESE IEMS ARE VERY GOOD AND THE
DETAIL RETRIEVAL ON THESE ARE ALSO EXCEPTIONAL
SO BECAUSE OF THAT AND IT’S BECAUSE OF THE
CLINICAL EXECUTION OF SOUND TO YOUR EARS THEY
ARE A VERY VERY GOOD IEM FOR ANALYZING MUSIC
AND SOUND AND BECAUSE OF THAT CERTAIN
POORLY RECORDED TRACKS AS I MENTIONED BEFORE
WILL SHOW THE FLAWS OF THAT RECORDED TRACK SO
IT’S EVERYTHING IS LIKE AN OPEN BOOK ON THESE
NM2S THE GOOD AND THE BAD YOU CAN HEAR IS
ALL WELL REPRESENTED REALISTICALLY OKAY SO
OVERALL THESE ARE MY THOUGHTS OF THE NM2S
WHAT DO I THINK I THINK THEY ARE GREAT AND
FOR CERTAIN PEOPLE NOW FOR MUSICIANS
MUSICALLY INCLINE, MONITORING AND RECORDING
AND THOSE WHO REALLY LOVES TO ANALYZE SOUND
AND MUSIC AND IF YOU’RE DOING CONTENT
CREATION THESE IEMS ARE GREAT BECAUSE THEY DO
REPRESENT THE REAL SOUND THAT WAS BEING RECORDED
BUT FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC SO
WHAT DO I THINK GENERAL PUBLIC
I WOULD THINK IT’S GOOD AS WELL IF YOU LIKE
TO LISTEN TO DETAILS OF THE SONG ITSELF
BUT AT A PRICE OF 99 US DOLLARS I THINK
THERE ARE QUITE A FEW COMPETITION COMPETITION
OUT THERE AND PRICE WISE I WOULDN’T THINK IS
QUITE COMPETITIVE BUT IN TERMS OF PERFORMANCE
AND TECHNICALITIES THESE ARE VERY GOOD SO THESE
ARE MY THOUGHTS OF THE NM2S AND IF YOU GUYS HAVE
