Simgot EM6-L Impressions: SIMGOT’S MOST REFINED YET!

  • August 6, 2023
  • kesobie

Come with me as I share my impressions on the Simgot EM6-L, also known as the Phoenix! This is their latest hybrid set with an SRP of $109. With a price range that is often filled with unique sets, can the Phoenix stand out and soar to prove itself worthy? Let’s fine out!

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:

  • Clean, minimalist but arguably slightly lacking package
  • Comes with only 3 pairs of eartips
  • Serviceable but arguably not the fanciest or most ergonomic stock cable
  • Lightweight, clean but fingerprint-prone build
  • Slight U-Shaped leaning bright
  • Clean, impactful bass that lacks texture
  • Slightly recessed midrange with a smooth and shout-free presentation
  • Elevated, bright, slightly metallic but sibilance-free treble with a slight roll-off
  • Decent technicalities for the price with a pretty wide stage

The Simgot EM6-L is a 4BA + 1DD Hybrid housed in a resin-metal shell that uses a QDC connector. 

Simgot’s tuning recently has been some of the cleanest and smoothest that I’ve tried with the EM6-L being the pinnacle of this. The entire frequency range is just smooth as butter (with the exception to the upper mids) and gives it a soothing sound that isn’t overly lush or dark but also does not necessarily come across as boring. It still provides a considerable amount of fun while being refined enough to not have any edginess, more so a brightness that gives higher-frequency vocals and instruments a shimmery presentation without harshness. This all comes together in making the EM6-L a very clean sounding IEM with a little bit of brightness to make higher frequency notes stand out.

However, the biggest gripe I have for the EM6-L is a somewhat double edged sword as I found it a little too smooth. The bass goes deep but doesn’t really have a lot of punch or texture to get me bopping and moving to the beat. The midrange recession may also be problematic for those seeking a more balanced and intimate midrange presentation. And that treble is the outlier for the refinement that Simgot usually puts out as I noticed a slight metallic timbre in the upper midrange to treble that some might find unnatural sounding or just offputting. It’s techs are also just overall quite decent for the asking price which doesn’t really make it stand out in that regard.

Simgot has recently been coming out with bangers of well-tuned IEMs with great driver implementation and a solid price. The EM6-L is no exception to this as it is, by far, Simgot’s most refined sounding set to date. However, it does fall unto the safer category where it doesn’t do one thing the best but does everything decently. This makes the EM6-L a pretty solid all-rounder IEM for those looking for a budget end-game set without much compromise. 

Stay tuned for the full review!
