Surprised and happy to see that the Sa6 ultra (n°156) i bought is still one of the best even if i still enjoy it. Very good quality product and comfortable. I love the QKZ HBB too a very good bassy iem for only 16$ but less comfrtable because of its bigger nozzle.
Number one iem in the world I have heard, which almost brought me to tears (not literally) is the Subtonic Storm. Words cannot describe. I struggled describing it because it's just, flavour less but yet so emotional. Sound is sound as it is in real life. That to me is called perfection in tonality. If you ever get a chance to try it, jump on it.
might get hate for this but i actually prefer kz edx pro (not x) over the zero red, i dont understand the hype with the zero blue or red but to each their own i guess
@@weeduck9579 totally understandable... KZ has a reputation. Can't ignore they've put out loads of good sounding IEMs but people see the name and the very low price and ignore them. Just goes to show how easy it actually is to make good sounding IEMs by placing a DD in a shell.
@@Okamine depends what tuning you want. As technically they are not stunning at this price. Wan'er is more balanced, neutral with some detail. Chu is mid-bass focused, mids are a little suppressed, I didn't like it because of masking in the highs. Zero red overall is very smooth, bass focused but to me the upper mids and treble were too smoothed with nothing shining out. From my collection of budget IEMs (PR2, chu2, zero red, qkz hbb, blon jojo, blon BL03, 7hz sonus) if I were to own just one it would be BL03. Big bass balanced with a sparkly treble!

But then he gifted me the UM FS. I just ordered the NicehK Himalaya I'm waiting to receiving them. Obviously nothing is as good as The UM FS but I like to experience different sound profiles.
@ZReviews push Dunu to release the SA6 ultra again! Make it different colors or something to make it different than the limited edition run. I want them real bad!
What do you consider is the best for gaming and a mic? specially for a smaller ear. I use samsung bud pro 2 and it hurts my ear after a couple of hours.
ngl, best gaming headset if you want in something in sub $100 is Koss KSC75. As for a mic, it really doesn't matter because the games' intercoms will compress it and it never sounds good on discord, neither. Might as well embrace the funny and get an xbox mic from 2007 LOL
Hi I don’t have an IEM recommendation for ya, but I have tried the Bluetooth IEM cables and they work great! You are taking a very very big source quality hit though, so you likely wont get a ton of value pairing them with an amazing IEM.
Do the zero reds compare to the OG(blue version) crinnacle zeros? If I upgrade from the OG’s it will likely to be something in a higher price bracket but I would like to know anyway.
Maybe some idea for a video. I am looking into iem. First budget (I was more into regular headphones). I would like to buy 2 or 3 good iems on a budget with as much different characteristics as possible so I can get some impressions on what I like. In that way, I would spend maybe 100 to 150 USD. Also, I would add a dac/amp just to be sure. So, the idea is to maybe make a video with putting budget iems on a spectrum from warm to neutral, from wide sound stage to narrow, ...
I just bought the 7Hz Timeless and the Timeless AE due to the high praise both get. I'm hoping one of them will be what I'm looking for. Now watching this makes me want to try the TANCHJIM ORIGIN to see how they compare since they are in the same price range.
@@human6.045 TBH, not a lot. The AE's aren't as sharp on the highs and have a bit more bass. But the AE's aren't bassy either. I would just recommend them to someone who like the Timeless, but thinks their highs are a bit too bright.
The conch is basically a better zero red. It's 35 dollars with abt as much value if not more than the zero red. With different tuning nozzles that actually differentiate the sound
they have 2 different tunings...conch (similar with ew200 and has a slight improvement on the technical aspect) has a bright tuning and Red is quite dark and does have the ief neutral tuning. But one thing is for sure conch can be considered a sub 100 usd iem.
I tried searching TH-cam to see if you'd reviewed the Empire Ears Raven yet, but didn't see anything from you yet. They have _tactile transducers_ in them, and are allegedly incredibly fun while also being incredibly revealing. Do you have any thoughts on them, Gizaudio?
$1k range has so much good competition.. If you were to pick a stand out in $1k territory, what would it be? Very informative, appreciate these kind of video, especially with sets that are lesser known :) Thanks 🙏
Hi everyone, I'm new to the IEM space, when getting something like the truthear zero x crinacle, would a DAC be necessary? I'm thinking of switching from my Logitech G Pro headset as it's quite fatiguing on my head, and want to try IEM's. I could plug into the dongle I have for my G pro headset and use G hub (idk if that's very frowned upon but it seems like it should work) or as another alternative I could buy an extension cable to plug directly into the back of my b450 gaming ROG motherboard. Anyone got any advice? PS. sorry if I'm speaking of horrible unspoken things haha, I'm new :)
You don’t need DAC for that… DAC is like extra power for your IEM if you want extra sound/knob to blast your ear, or if you think its still to low for your preference. Just plug and play is already good (for me)
Top level for me goes to the Alpha/Omega: OMEGA! I have the Elysian Annihilator 2023 Titanium, and 27 other IEM's and headphones and none of them sound as beautiful as the Omega's. They are very hard to find but if you get a chance to try them, I think it will be love ! :)
I have them and I disagree fully. The wan'er is significantly more balanced and even if they were to cost $5-10 more than the chu 2 I'd go with the wan'er
@@hartyewh1 I can see that. For the chu 2 and me, the sub-bass impacts the lower mid range too much for my tastes and ears. It might just be due to how resolving my other iem’s are, so when I’m in a situation where I use my chu 2 they sound bad to me. I have them in my backpack as a backup when I commute
Would you ever do a custom iem review? I have some custom ultimate ears that’s are nearly 10 years old now I need to update. I play bass guitar so need bass thinking the ue11pro next or 64 audio A4s
I have some question. I remember the film about iems that being good for classical music and there were sa6 and monarch mkii. How is it now? Monarch mkii is significantly better than sa6 mkii (I mean specially for classical music, in details, resolution, separation etc.(I like listening symphonies, so those aspects are important for me)) or maybe this difference is not too big now? Maybe some new film about great iems for classical music?
for me, not in any kind of price range, and i almost owned all of these IEM: Recommendation - TFZ No. 3(100$++), this bass tho, so good, too bad not too many people bought it, this is my longest lasting IEM - KBear Rosefinch, this bass is also goods, i don't find any problem with it, for that price(less than $20) it's good budget basshead IEM - Moondrop chu 2, this is quite all right, definitely better than KZ D-FI and moondrop chu 1 - KZ Castor Black, this bass is not that good compared to Rosefinch and No.3 but it passable as bassy IEM, not quite for basshead tho, if you buy this one for basshead you'll be dissapointed, lol - KZ D-FI, this as secondary IEM is all right, there is nothing wrong with it, but as everyone said, Moondrop Chu 2 is more fun. I prefer Rosefinch and Chu 2 as budget recommendation Not recommended: - Moondrop chu, i think this one for me is a little bit too dry i sell this after owning it for a bit - KZ ZEX x Crinacle, this is a piercing IEM for me for some reason, i sold this faster than Moondrop Chu hahaha - KZ ZSN Pro(yes the 2018 or 2019 version), this is the most piercing of all, not recommended for basshead, but idk about the treblehead - BLON BL-03, sound is quite good, what i remember is the vocal is sweet, but fitting can be a problem, and KZ Castor Black is better imo, minus KZ Castor Black doesn't really have sweet vocal - TFZ T2 galaxy, sound quite goods, but not as good as TFZ No. 3 for basshead - KZ ZS7, because of the shape this IEM is literally physically piercing my ear, not recommended, also 11/12 with TFZ T2 galaxy, with i think more of a step back for vocal - KZ ZS10 Pro, i do not own this, but as far as i remember the bass is a bit like TFZ T2 galaxy, with more piercing in treble, you can use KZ Castor Black for cheaper - Sony XB75AP, 11/12 with T2 galaxy, minux non replaceable cable, better pick TFZ T2 galaxy or KZ Castor Black
Hi sir im struggling for almost a month which to choose: tanchjim origin, sivga nightangle, hidisz mp145. Im moving forward to upgrade my current iems are : simgot ew200, tangzu waner, tanchjim zero, kz d-fi. Is it worth it if i upgrade?😢 please help me to decide.
I just got the TruthEar x Crinacle Zero Red and it has a dB sensitivity of 117.5db. That's a lot. However, I realized using it with my phone with a 3.5mm to usb C adapter, even the max volume is a bit lacking, so I like using them with an headphone amp better.
@@jonathancamargo8358I use a fiio k7 BT, but you don't need to spend $250 on an amp like I did, especially for just IEMs. I use headphones too. What device is your music/sound coming from? I would try the Qudelix 5k if you're using your smartphone.
does anyone have any recommendations around the $100 range that have a more manageable nozzle size compared to the Zero: Red? I really enjoy them, but as someone with small ear canals, wearing them for longer than an hour causes discomfort (even after trying spinfit tips).
What’d be the best for gaming you’d say? I’m tired of headsets and need one for competitive gaming, maybe a video worthy content since a lot of people are switching to IEMS for competitive games like valorant/cs
@@tedidaniels8302 bassy - cca rhapsody or trio Vocals - Rhapsody for male. EPZ Q1 Pro - female. Male is also nice just less husky. Both of these destroy the waner in term of technicality.
if you were to squeeze an "under $1000" category into the list, would the oracle mk3 be the one? how about "under $1500?" glacier? prestige ltd? thanks timmy.
Gizaudio i have kz zsn pro x and tangzu waner and oneplus nord buds to be honest with u they sound very similar like if u have notice the difference its very hard its not onelu with me i asked my mother my brother and my frnds please tell me am i doing something wrong here because i sacred to buy another iem to scale up my price
@@thomasdanny7717 tnks bruhh but the fact is even my frnds can tell the difference they sound good but they do not differ from earbuds I think 20 dollars iems are not worth an upgrade if u really want to feel the difference these reviewers say then I think we need to spend more ....or even we spend more idk wat value we get
@@anubdaniel9649 This is fine if you and your friends/family can't differentiate the tonal and technical differences in iem/tws sound. Consider it a blessing. But for those of us who are cursed with sensitive hearing, we will always try to find a sound that satisfies and suits our tastes. And of course we will buy iems for tens, hundreds or even thousands of dollars if we have the funds. I myself have bought a Monarch MK2 for $1000. But in the end I found that I was more suited to the cheaper Studio4, SA6 MK2 and Falcon Ultra.
why didnt you mention ARTTI R2 Iems which are one of the best in 50 dollar catagory...if u have not reviewed yet plz make a review and share how it performs against zero red
Dude, there's only one or two spot for each price, of course most IEMs won't make the list. If I include all the options I get suggested in the comments I would have 5-10 "best" per price. Which is not the point of the video.
@@kazu7577 No, in genereal for gamin it has a flat sound signature, come with a microphone and have a good sound stage, great for analysing and hearing footsteps.
Pula PA02, CLKVX D41, Sliivo SL41, Juzear 41T... At this point I don't even care anymore if they actually are all sub-brands that refer to Myer Audio or else (I wouldn't be surprised if as we are talking about it they are preparing another twin set to be released on the market lol)... In doubt, I just got a pair. At 130€ on sale this last few days they were a no-brainer buy, can't wait to try them once they arrive (I just hope they will fit my ears well, being some sort of a "chonky Performer 5")...
Next, how about making ''Second best IEMs at every price range". I'd love to watch
lol
Second bests also know as the "all time loosers" aka no one wants because there is something better.
Worst IEM at every price range
What about third best? Need to be made too?
@@mr.smithers8435^ this
I'd suggest you to make such video with suggestions of different types of sound signatures for each price range.
The storm is also discontinued, the version that is going to go for sale again will be different. As for the sa6mk2, you should try the sliivo slt6
The shell will be made slightly differently, not hand painted anymore, perhaps different design. Otherwise it should be the same IEM
Confirmed this with the owners at CanJam SG. Only the faceplate is downgraded and simplified to keep costs down. Everything else is the same.
Heres my list (each price point has a noticeable upgrade) :Chu 2 DSP, ew200, hexa, chopin, hype 4/studio4, ejo7m/supernova, helios/crimson, u12t/cadenza 12, annihilator, subtonic storm/7th acoustics asteria.
Which is better chopin or origin? 🥺
Ew200 or EM6L?? Also EM6L or hexa??
What's your take on canpur 622b?
Surprised and happy to see that the Sa6 ultra (n°156) i bought is still one of the best even if i still enjoy it. Very good quality product and comfortable. I love the QKZ HBB too a very good bassy iem for only 16$ but less comfrtable because of its bigger nozzle.
Best for me: under $50: Tanya DSP, under $100: Olina SE, under $150: Acoustune RS One.

for me, not in any kind of price range, and i almost owned all of these IEM:

- KBear Rosefinch, this bass is also goods, i don't find any problem with it, for that price(less than $20) it's good budget basshead IEM
- Moondrop chu 2, this is quite all right, definitely better than KZ D-FI and moondrop chu 1
- KZ Castor Black, this bass is not that good compared to Rosefinch and No.3 but it passable as bassy IEM, not quite for basshead tho, if you buy this one for basshead you'll be dissapointed, lol
- KZ D-FI, this as secondary IEM is all right, there is nothing wrong with it, but as everyone said, Moondrop Chu 2 is more fun. I prefer Rosefinch and Chu 2 as budget recommendation
Not recommended:
- Moondrop chu, i think this one for me is a little bit too dry i sell this after owning it for a bit
- KZ ZEX x Crinacle, this is a piercing IEM for me for some reason, i sold this faster than Moondrop Chu hahaha
- KZ ZSN Pro(yes the 2018 or 2019 version), this is the most piercing of all, not recommended for basshead, but idk about the treblehead
- BLON BL-03, sound is quite good, what i remember is the vocal is sweet, but fitting can be a problem, and KZ Castor Black is better imo, minus KZ Castor Black doesn't really have sweet vocal
- TFZ T2 galaxy, sound quite goods, but not as good as TFZ No. 3 for basshead
- KZ ZS7, because of the shape this IEM is literally physically piercing my ear, not recommended, also 11/12 with TFZ T2 galaxy, with i think more of a step back for vocal
- KZ ZS10 Pro, i do not own this, but as far as i remember the bass is a bit like TFZ T2 galaxy, with more piercing in treble, you can use KZ Castor Black for cheaper
- Sony XB75AP, 11/12 with T2 galaxy, minux non replaceable cable, better pick TFZ T2 galaxy or KZ Castor Black

I just got the TruthEar x Crinacle Zero Red and it has a dB sensitivity of 117.5db. That's a lot. However, I realized using it with my phone with a 3.5mm to usb C adapter, even the max volume is a bit lacking, so I like using them with an headphone amp better.
@@LittlePlant888ok! I will buy this and amp too?
@@jonathancamargo8358I use a fiio k7 BT, but you don't need to spend $250 on an amp like I did, especially for just IEMs. I use headphones too.
What device is your music/sound coming from? I would try the Qudelix 5k if you're using your smartphone.
I bought the tangzu waner @ $7
@Gizaudio what about simgot ea500 lm? Where does it stand in this list and if not then why?
I miss two important IEM's: Chopin and Galileo
Man I was about to pull the trigger on the annihilator but you talked me out of it. Why do they keep discontinuing good products!
LEE, IF YOU ARE READING THIS... PLEASE BRING BACK THE ANNIHILATOR 2021. IT SOUNDS SO GOOOOOOOODDDDDDD
2023 version is very good as well. I’ve tried both and actually prefer the 2023 version
How's salnotes zero 2 compared to ziigats nuo
Where do you place hexa?? I heard they are very good.
Did you try ostry kc06a ? Is it better than tangzu water. ?
Not for music
Just for fps games
does anyone have any recommendations around the $100 range that have a more manageable nozzle size compared to the Zero: Red? I really enjoy them, but as someone with small ear canals, wearing them for longer than an hour causes discomfort (even after trying spinfit tips).
wait for upcoming releases they all at 100ish
as for now theres old legends such as se215 and vsd6 etc but theyll be obsolete soon
Any iem that has usb c cable?
Love the Tanchjim Origin, vocals on aria and 7hz zero sound relatively boxy compared to origin.
Purchased together the Heyday and the Mp145. Mp145 sooo much better than the Heyday
If i use an iem as wan er, chu 2, conch in a laptop ¿do i need to use a dac/amp?
no
what iem sounds similair or even better than hyperx cloud headsets? my budget is 50+/-
What’s better for gaming?Tangzu wanner or kz castor?
Studio4 & SA6 MK2 ❤❤❤
Can you do best iems for gaming
... Where are the Simgot EA500LM❔
fr
Can u do a planar iems top? Xd could be ineresting
What’d be the best for gaming you’d say?
I’m tired of headsets and need one for competitive gaming, maybe a video worthy content since a lot of people are switching to IEMS for competitive games like valorant/cs
go for headphone if youre on limited budget, smth like jh7 or ie600 required for best gaming experience, which are not cheap
Is variation a good buy?
So many iem that destroys the tangzu wan'er under 50 nowadays.
Recommend some in each category.
1) Bassy 2) Vocals
Like?
@@tedidaniels8302 bassy - cca rhapsody or trio
Vocals - Rhapsody for male. EPZ Q1 Pro - female. Male is also nice just less husky.
Both of these destroy the waner in term of technicality.
@@RetroChibii conch, epz q1 pro, epz Q5, cca rhapsody, cca trio, just to name a few
@@tedidaniels8302 bassy - cca rhapsody,
Vocal - EPZ Q1 Pro.
if you were to squeeze an "under $1000" category into the list, would the oracle mk3 be the one? how about "under $1500?" glacier? prestige ltd? thanks timmy.
Under $1000 I would put maybe Monarch MK2
Under $1500 it would be Elysian Gaea
what about the Moondrop x Crinical Dusk, the one with 2dd+2ba+2planar, would that be a good choice for under $500?
Gizaudio i have kz zsn pro x and tangzu waner and oneplus nord buds to be honest with u they sound very similar like if u have notice the difference its very hard its not onelu with me i asked my mother my brother and my frnds please tell me am i doing something wrong here because i sacred to buy another iem to scale up my price
If you can't differentiate between the three, then you don't need to buy iem/tws anymore. No need to push yourself too much.
@@thomasdanny7717 tnks bruhh but the fact is even my frnds can tell the difference they sound good but they do not differ from earbuds I think 20 dollars iems are not worth an upgrade if u really want to feel the difference these reviewers say then I think we need to spend more ....or even we spend more idk wat value we get
@@anubdaniel9649 This is fine if you and your friends/family can't differentiate the tonal and technical differences in iem/tws sound. Consider it a blessing. But for those of us who are cursed with sensitive hearing, we will always try to find a sound that satisfies and suits our tastes. And of course we will buy iems for tens, hundreds or even thousands of dollars if we have the funds. I myself have bought a Monarch MK2 for $1000. But in the end I found that I was more suited to the cheaper Studio4, SA6 MK2 and Falcon Ultra.
Do you use amp/dac?
Could you please review the Hidizs MP145?
I have three items all fiio,that's it,you can go broke with the cost of iems-the and it seems like a quest for the ultimate sound quality.
I got tangzu wan'er, tangzu wu zetian, zero red, kz zex pro and fiio fh5. Zero red and kz zex pro hurt my ear if using for long period.
Please, Make A List Of IEM's For Listening Details At Every Price
Salnote 2 or Tangzu waner sg? For gaming and movies
how about a rank list for competitive fps?
studio 4 vs shuoer ej07m? whos the best you think?
I think he doesn't even care that much about the EJ07M 😂
Howbout hidizs mp145?😢
thnx man my tangzu is coming to my home at 2 April 😊😊
how's the bass/treble? Is it good for both gaming and listening to music?
why didnt you mention ARTTI R2 Iems which are one of the best in 50 dollar catagory...if u have not reviewed yet plz make a review and share how it performs against zero red
hmm theres no Aful p5 or p8 ? nor Hype 2 and my almost end game hype4,
seems rushed
Dude, there's only one or two spot for each price, of course most IEMs won't make the list. If I include all the options I get suggested in the comments I would have 5-10 "best" per price. Which is not the point of the video.
Between the Wan'er and the 7Hz Zero , which would be better for valorant? Especiially with hearing footsteps clearly.
None i would suggest 7hz - salnotes zero for that price range
@@Dante_19especially for strictly only use for valorant?
@@kazu7577 No, in genereal for gamin it has a flat sound signature, come with a microphone and have a good sound stage, great for analysing and hearing footsteps.
I had purchased the zero red but man the sound was so low. I had to use atleast 70% for normal video. Maybe I got a defective one? 🤔
Buy apple dongle or ve abigal pro
What about the 7hz timeless?
the truthear nova isnt bad candidate too if you up the bass like 6db extra xd
Pula PA02, CLKVX D41, Sliivo SL41, Juzear 41T... At this point I don't even care anymore if they actually are all sub-brands that refer to Myer Audio or else (I wouldn't be surprised if as we are talking about it they are preparing another twin set to be released on the market lol)... In doubt, I just got a pair. At 130€ on sale this last few days they were a no-brainer buy, can't wait to try them once they arrive (I just hope they will fit my ears well, being some sort of a "chonky Performer 5")...
Bro what will be good for mobile gamming accurate footstep and positional sound under 100 dollar to 20 dollar
Isn't the Origin just the Kato which is now just the Aria 2?
Hello, this list also applies to Asmr? I want some good iems to enjoy ASMR
crinacle zero blue or red for gaming?
blue
The end game throne will probably be vacant forever...if you know!
Just started playing the video but I swear if there is no D-Fi mentioned for under $5 I will riot
*riots*
