Product Review of IM4s
Overview of IM4 Build Quality
- The reviewer rates the build quality of the IM4s as a solid 3.5, questioning if both styles will be offered and mentioning the absence of a 4.4 option.
- The casing is made from fossium, described as potentially indestructible; it could withstand being run over by a tank with minimal damage.
Performance Insights
- The reviewer speculates that FSY aims to sell more units on Amazon than through their homepage due to higher sales potential.
- A second set of nozzles was tested; the default black ones provide slight dampening compared to brass ones which enhance treble but reduce bass response.
Sound Quality and Detail Retrieval

- The reviewer notes hearing background details in older tracks, indicating high detail resolution despite some frequencies becoming overly pronounced.
Accessories and Customization Options

- Suggestions are made for further collaboration with FSY to improve product offerings, emphasizing user feedback on dampening preferences.
