Youtube Video Summary
Hisenior Mega5-EST +Bass comes as a custom set with personalized shells and a straightforward Pelican-style case. The build is compact and comfortable with an easy tip-lip, though the color matching can look inconsistent in certain light and the stock cable feels a bit lackluster—thin, slightly stiff, and not as plush as expected at this tier.
Sonically, this is where it clicks: a tasteful bass shelf for proper foundation, pristine upper-mids for clarity, and airy EST extension that brings out detail without harshness. It tracks close to a personal target shaped by sets like the Elysian Annihilator and JM1—cleaner and more engaging than the stock Mega5-EST, which can feel like “clean water” to some. Comparisons paint the path here: the affordable Hexa shows the right upper-mid behavior; the Chopin is a fun benchmark under $200 with small quirks; Hype 4 offers a Mega-style tuning on a budget but with less bass; and Binary Dynaquattro scratches a V-shaped itch while being harder to drive. Mega5-EST +Bass blends these lessons into a punchy, articulate, and well-imaged presentation.
Value is strong for a custom with EST drivers under a grand—excellent channel matching, convincing technicalities, and a tuning that feels “just right” for modern music without turning strident. Caveats: the order process can be slow (think weeks) and communication runs through Hisenior/Facebook, so patience helps. Not the only answer at the price, but as a preference-targeted custom that adds the missing low-end weight to the original Mega5-EST’s clarity, this one earns an unapologetic S-tier.
