ARTTI FLEX A7 Modular IEM Cable Review
I purchased 7hz zero 2 but that didn’t came with mic and c type cable for that i bought zero 1 cable but from the day 4-5 its not getting fit in mobile i have to fix it every time or it lost sound but today it totally got off can u suggest a c- type mic cable for zero 2 or this give a good job in mobile gaming
Can i use this with truthear hola red?
Yes, both the Hola and the Zero Red would work great with this.
Pls review Tripowin Altea. It looks sick
Should I get this cable or Dunu Lyre Mini for my Truthear Hexa? I need to connect to a DAC/AMP because the Truthear Hexa is only 3.5mm.
They are both good. The Lyre mini has that nylon jacket that makes it a little stiff and microphonic. If you think that will bother you, get the Ace 2.0. Personally I like the Lyre Mini better though.
Work it with ps5 controller?
I think so, I don’t have a PS5 to verify though.
Been looking everywhere for the length. Thanks you!
Recently bought the base version of the AZ09, same issue. Already got them replaced too with KZ but it actually is a normal occurence for this model to have that damn charging issue. Customer service can’t even help, it’s like they don’t understand anything no matter how clear and concise I explain them. Showed videos too. Thanks for this video! Enlightened me that this issue is normal among these.
Apparently making Bluetooth earhooks is hard. If one of these companies could crack the code and make something that really worked well it would be awesome.
@@IEMCableReviews If ever you do discover such a thing, you’ll be the messiah! God I wish it happens soon. If I lose my sanity with these bad boys, i’ll be back to normal non IEM bluetooth earbuds ):
Are you by any chance planning to review the Artti A9/A5? Very interesting cable at its price point, it's using a thicker internal wire but has just 2 cores to appeal to the people who swear thicker wires mean cleaner sound / soundstage. Claims 7n OCC copper too, with swappable connectors. Just wondering how it handles and if it provides any advantage in content loudness, since the cable is supposedly very conductive and thicker than your average one. I know it probably doesn't magically upgrade your sound quality.
I’ll see if I can get one to review, I was interested in it as well.
Can you fit the iem that you are useing in the case?
Yes
How well do you think this would compare to the MC1? I'm using the Lan right now and I need a new cable for my Type C to 3.5 mm adapter.
The MC2 is a nicer cable, but they both work well.
I love this cover more from your outro th-cam.com/video/kmj9Q2nw_QI/w-d-xo.html
That’s a cool version. 😀
@@IEMCableReviews i want leave a comment but don't know what to say
As always I am going to comment. Voice sound quality mic is... well it sounds like a bluetooth microphone. The cable looks atrocious tho, I know the feeling of that kind of cable its just horrid for me. Well since its functional its... fin *barf* no I am not going to say fine with it. I mean there are other options like stuff from TRN with their bluetooth stuff which you dont have to tinker with unlike the KZ AZ09 (omg video reference woahhh true watcher right here frfr). Hope you review the TRN offerings soon! Preaching our lord budget cable god see you next week ❤
lol thanks! I will try to get to the TRN stuff at some point. 👍
If I add sleeve (something like the transparent one at the ear hook) to the cable so it won't get damaged will that cause problems to the cable ?🤔
No it would not hurt the cable.
@@IEMCableReviews has anyone tried ?
is it possible to quickly mute with these?
If there is a way, I haven’t found it.
Doesn't every bluetooth device's volume move 8 units at a time? Happened w all of my wireless headphones. Also btw, what is that device you used?, it looked cool Thanks for the video as always!
Maybe for standard Bluetooth devices 8 steps per press is normal, I guess I'm spoiled by devices like the Qudelix 5K, which has way more than 12 or 13 steps of volume. Plus, considering this device can easily get too loud, you really need more steps to use the volume control practically. The DAP I'm using is the HiBy R4.
Alright, thanks for your response. Good luck going forward!
Great review 👏 I'm getting it for my 7hz salnotes zero 👍
What cables with good mics would you recommend?
MC1 and MC2 are good.
Hi, is there a big difference in sound between the Zonie and the C8? In my country, the C8 only comes with a mic, so I'm thinking about getting the Zonie instead.
I notice no difference with the sound.
Can I use salnotes cable with chu 2?
I think, yea...
Well, you just convinced me to cut my az09 with my stylus. The surgery went very well, the operation was smooth and the module now works with basically anything. Thank you
What IEMs that you can use with them now that they’re modded are you enjoying the most?
It's a good (and nice)cable at a relatively good price from a well-known brand in the audio world. It's a shame there isn't a slightly longer option.
I wish all cables were slightly longer.
Thanks for the review! I was wondering if you have tried the Truthear Hola/Gate cables and how they compare to the Tripowin Zonie because I have heard they are good cables and are also around the same price (plus it comes with an iem).
I have both the Hola and Gate. Great value, the cable is decent for both but basic. The Zonie is definitely an upgrade.
Weekly praise of the best way to review a cable, talking about what really matters keep it going. I am very interested if you are going to review other cable brands like xinhs or maybe more expensive cable brands (but its fine if you don't cause they are expensive). Also whats the vocaloid song at the end, I always forget to ask lmao.
Thanks as always for the compliments, they are very much appreciated! I tend to avoid the more expensive cables, you’ve probably listened to me enough to guess why, although I do have a review of the Letshuoer LR Nebula coming up in which I’ll probably share my thoughts on expensive cables in general. The outro song is “Shake It!” by emon.
@@IEMCableReviews I fully understand why you don't want to review expensive cables which is fine, thanks for the song and the sneak peek into what the next video is about!
hi will this work on a type C pin?
I assume that's what KZ usually use for the IEM. It will work but you will have a higher chance of bending the pins.
Are the wires attached tightLY in the DAÇ? Coz i own a couple of cheap ones where i detached the cable from type c port while un plugging the iems from my phone
I haven’t had any issues with the construction or where the wires terminate into the DAC. Although I am very careful with my cables and would never pull the USB-C end out by pulling on the wires, I always grab the plug end.
Whats the difference between MC2 and MC1?
The MC2 is a more premium cable with metal hardware. The MC1 is more basic with plastic hardware.
@@IEMCableReviews thanks for the explanation 👍
I just learned about IEMs and I'm going for a TRUTHEAR X Crinacle Zero for my Xbox Series X, so I won't have to "wear" a headset anymore. However they don't come with a mic, so I was looking around for cables like this. The presentation was excellent and covered anything I wanted, except one thing. What is the positioning of the mic? Will it be on my shoulder? Because it seems a little far from the ear. You sounded great, but I was wondering how close it was to your mouth. Or do you have a better cable to suggest maybe with a different mic perhaps?
For the most part these mic cables have the mic dangling somewhere around chin height.
@@IEMCableReviews Good to know. Thank you.
Is the Mirage as good as the zonie? Loved the dark brown that looks like black and the 4 core but was wondering. Also, any microphonics? Or have you done that cable yet?
I haven’t tried the Mirage yet although it looks to be similar to the Zoe, mainly the 4 core twist instead of braid. I worry it has the same memory and springy-ness problems as the Zoe. I will probably end up reviewing the Mirage at some point, a few people have asked for it.
i have moondrop chu 2 dsp mine cable has some sort of issue the left piece randomly disconnects it stops. I have to fix it with lil bit pressure. if there is any fix please tell my or i need to get a cable and can i use aux cable?
I would flip flop the cable left and right to make sure it’s the cable and not the left Chu that’s broken. If it is the cable, you’ll need to replace it with another Chu 2 DSP cable or Free DSP cable if you want to continue using USB-C. If you want an analog cable to plug into a 3.5mm headphone jack, yes you can use that instead and it will work, but you won’t be able to use the Moondrop Link app to adjust EQ anymore.
@@IEMCableReviews can you share some names in budget?
@@_darkhumourguyif you need a mic, the MC1 or MC2. If you don’t need a mic the Zonie is very good and very affordable.
Can you please review the effect audio centurion 🤣🤣🤣 JK
Thought I was gonna need to sell my house for a moment 😄
Bro can u do a mic test for tripowin grace
The male pin connector is very easy broken, because the cable is very thin and not very strong soldered. Stay away from this product
Why not get a b module?
I’ve never seen the B-pin version for sale in stock, also not sure B-pin would fit many IEMs even if you could find it.
What are your favourite cables? Best for buck and budget picks
It’s hard not to say Zonie - everyone seems to like it, lots of colors and options and a great price. Personally I’ve been reaching for the Dunu Lyre Mini quite often lately.
Will you review the Tripowin Jelly at some point? interested to compare.
I thought the Jelly was just a color of Zonie. Is it a different cable than the Zonie?
Bro can 2 pin 0.78 fit to zsn pro 0.75 qdc socket?
In most cases .75 will fit .78 and vice versa.
Wouldn't recommend this cable. Had it for maybe 1 month and the connections just gave up and it wouldn't even stay in my phone. All my other headphones do work fine.
Can i use this for Kz Zsn pro?
Yeah just make sure you get the QDC or “recessed 2 pin” option.
Hey man thanks for the review. I bought one and it is absolutely worth the $30. Just a quick question is it really a Furukawa wire? I don't see that info in their website
I saw it listed as Furukawa here: www.dunu-topsound.com/product-page/lyre-mini the first line under product highlights.
How is the microphone on the GATE Dynamic Driver in-ear? I just ordered the TRUTHEAR x Crinacle ZERO: RED, but it doesn't have a microphone option. So, I was thinking of purchasing the TRUTHEAR GATE just to get the mic cord, which makes more sense because I'll be getting the cord and another pair of in-ear monitors.
It’s okay, about on par with other mic cables that cost between $10 and $20. Not a bad idea to do it this way, you get a mic cable that’s probably worth around $10 and an IEM for $8.
will this be good for supermix4 simgot? have tried it on supermix4?
It would be fine on the Supermix.
thank you. any recommendation for an eartip? have you tried coreir brass ear tips?
@blindman8093 i have not tried those tips. I personally prefer Spinfit, either Omni for longer nozzles or W1 for shorter nozzles. Everyone’s ear canals are different though, so I don’t necessarily recommend using what works for my ears.
Any change in sound quality you noticed pls tell bro i just ordered one for my truthear hexa 😢
No change in sound
@@IEMCableReviews I was expecting a little warmth
Thanks for the review. Would love if you could review some cables with mic, goes great for call, video meetings etc and also music. I know seasoned auidophilles hate it.
I have done some mic cable reviews for the Moondrop MC1, MC2, and Free DSP.

I haven’t gotten around to reviewing the Zombur yet but I will.

Yes
which is better between this and tripowin noire?
I haven’t reviewed the Noire yet although I am planning to soon.
Can you recommend a premium option with these same features?
Maybe the MC2?
@@IEMCableReviews MC2 better than MC1? But thats cheaper.
@@eboboboythe MC2 should be more expensive than the MC1
@@IEMCableReviews its an opposite condition in my country. Idk why.
Great review. Any chance you can review the Tripowin Noire?
I’ll see if I can get my hands on one.
Great review, thanks. I noticed the Amber is priced around $10 more than the Zonie. Any particular reason for this?
The Amber is modular with swappable plugs, the Zonie is not.
"silver foil" sounds so premium. NOT
lol the way these companies describe the wire they use 🙄
