There's always a new iem on the block coming, can avoid it, but end of the day still the tunning matters, whatever sound signature anyone desire this 7th zero at the moment has the best tunning available at this price performance according to my experience with any $20 brand iem's and 7th salnotes have more lush sound for long listening than any other $20 iem's, my genre is adult contemporary jazz, cheers!
mine is in the mail right now. i wanted to get the chu when it released but i didn't because of the cable. so when this released, it seemed perfect. if i like the directionality they have, this might be dedicated pc set.
Just received my 7hz zero today, after listen found the separation, details and treble not as good as ZEX pro, looking for good separation and details IEM, 7hz Dioko is good choice? thanks ian.
i'm torn between this one and cca cra, i was about to buy a jbl t110 and learned about those iem that do better for the same price, so it will be my first iem. i don't know about the neutral vs v-shape, my favorite genres are house, disco, pop, city pop, rock and synthwave. about the quality of the product itself, wich one do you think will last longer? i know it's just $20 dollars product but i need to put that in the balance too
My 7hz zero has arrived earlier and I enjoyed the sound signature. The sound is natural and the vocal is very good too. Im from a V shape IEM and it feels so nice to experience something different.
@@eishuno Riffs feel punchy as the low end does not cloud the mix. And the treble is pleasingly bright and clear but not at all harsh on the ears. Mids unsurprisingly sound clean.
If you want more bass out of the Zero put clear tape on the port hole on the plastic ear cup. It looks like a pin hole. It will boost the bass approximately 2db and also roll off the high frequency a little bit if you find them a little exhausting during long listening sessions. The Zeros are Heroes for $20.00. I have the ZEN DAC V2 and with the Zeros classic music and Jazz sound absolutely amazing in FLAC format or HD audio 24 bit recordings. I also own the BLON03 which is great for Rock, Alternative, and Rap music...I'm going to buy the SIVGA 023 over the ear headphones when then come down in price also...IAN if you can find me a good budget electro static IEM it would be appreciated. Great video...
So do you know if these IEMs are technically hi-res capable? If that’s even such a thing for IEMs (I’m very new to audio equipment). As I’ve just got a Tidal HiFi subscription so would love to be able to use it with these
This is my new favorite budget IEM. Maybe my every day IEM now too. It used to be T3 Plus and sometimes Dunu. These are more comfortable and definitely sound within that range of quality.
Depends on the user. If your ears hurt using the standard silicone tips, then memory foam would do you justice as it did for me. I use KZ Memory Foam Tip Personally and it works for my ears.
It's for different listening preferences. Soundstage esx taller more 3D, depth almost the same. zero slightly wider (flat oblong). Zero's vocal sounds so organic and natural tho it's leaner than esx, jawdropping imaging too for the price. Overall, esx is still more all rounder to my library (using spring tips)
my genre preferences : * ESX for Hiphop, EDM, RnB, Modern Pop, Dancey Kpop, Live Recording, Reggae, Indie/Alt Rock * Salmotes Zero for Metal (yep, including Death Metal/Black Metal), Classical, Acoustic, Pop Ballads, Classic Hard Rock
they are both quite similar but i would say the zero has a smoother sound, please take a look here : ianfann.squig.link/?share=Harman_2019_Target,7HZ_ZERO,MOONDROP_CHU
Just had my first 2 hours listening to the 7Hz Zero and I am very impressed with this £17 IEM. A few years ago this would have been good at £100. It's not as good as Kato, Timeless, Dioko, Truthear Zero but it is nearly as good. I can't fault it. Almost everybody needs nothing better than this. The rest of us will be adding it to the collections...
I can't decide which one to buy between these 7hz Zero and the KZ ZS10 Pro. It would be my first IEM and need some advice! I mostly listen electronic genres and Metal.
Have them both. These punch above their weight. These don't give me fatigue like the ZS10 Pro's do. They have become my daily driver for the past 2 weeks. Bought another set this week so I can have them as a backup. I would take these and not look back but your hearing profile might be different. Give them a try for 20 bucks. Cheers.
I just thinking if i buy 7Hz Zero. What's your opinion i wanna get some USB DAC: HiBy FC1 (if this cheap work propper), HiBy FC3 or FiiO KA1? (music on cheap smartphone)
@@ianfann bought it and agreed with you. The CRA is more fun to listen..you can feel the bass when it hit while the Zero, there is bass but it hit not as hard. Even KZ Zex Pro hit a little bit harder than Zero. And I think CRA and ZEX Pro sounded louder and fuller(?) than Zero. (Using KZ AZO9 Pro and Azla Xelastex tip at same volume level)
@@pedrobramante48 i dont notice any hissing but that's probably just my ear :) If you want fun iem between the 3, go for CRA...best for movie and music The ZEX Pro is best for music...ok for movie The Zero does not go as loud as CRA or ZEX Pro but the bass is there also the detail in sound. I'll try compare them wired next.
I appreciate and love these, my first IEM for casual on the go, may even become my main listening device, using with Project S2digital. Amazing what 20$ can deliver.

Honestly, their performance differences at this price is marginal and small but if you were to as me to choose I would choose the zero.
Is it better than kz zex pro for sounds quality? (Details, sounds stage)
yes of course

ok thanks
i have chu with me...will this be an upgrade ? and thanks for the dtailed review...
A slight upgrade, but it's not worth it if you already had the Chu. Just save up and get the Kato or sth
Well said 👍
well the chu is probably gonna break at some point, so when you want something similar but better on the cheap, this is jt
kz zex or salnotes zero? which one do you prefer to have sir?
Same question for me too
I like mine… it’s sorta warm neutral… still $20 presentation, but solid sound.
👍
There is no sibilance!!! Wow, amazing, please don't worry about graphs, just listen with a good dac and enjoy.
What's the best tips for it?
Depends on the user. If your ears hurt using the standard silicone tips, then memory foam would do you justice as it did for me. I use KZ Memory Foam Tip Personally and it works for my ears.
I'm a treble sensitive person. Will it be best for watching anime and female vocal / thin voice tracks?
This hmm may not be suitable. You might want to consider blon z200 if you are treble sensitive
I love esx & salnotes zero equally
Hows zero sounds compared to esx?
It's for different listening preferences. Soundstage esx taller more 3D, depth almost the same. zero slightly wider (flat oblong). Zero's vocal sounds so organic and natural tho it's leaner than esx, jawdropping imaging too for the price. Overall, esx is still more all rounder to my library (using spring tips)
Zero sounds more neutral and esx sounds more warm and has more of a fun listening experience. It depends on your listening preference.
my genre preferences :
* ESX for Hiphop, EDM, RnB, Modern Pop, Dancey Kpop, Live Recording, Reggae, Indie/Alt Rock
* Salmotes Zero for Metal (yep, including Death Metal/Black Metal), Classical, Acoustic, Pop Ballads, Classic Hard Rock
@@fate5806 really?? It is good for metal?
Sir Ian, what tools are you using to measure frequency response?
It’s in my other video, I show how I measure iems
Thank you. Do you recommend ear tips or/and another cables?
Im waiting for the 7hz x Iann Fann colab.
😳
What would be the best choise bwn trn ta1 and salnotes zero(both are batter than cca cra right?)
Sir there is no better or worst, it depends on your listening preference

Where did you buy it from for £17?
Very surprising indeed. At any price this is a good IEM. I've had 80 dollar sets I don't like this much.
Hi. How does the overall performance compare to the Truthear Zero?
truthear has a better sound separation, 7hz has a warmer tone. and of course 7hz is much cheaper.
Hi Ian! Would like to ask, would you reccomend these 7Hz Zero over the Celest Gumiho ?
different tuning and driver set up bro... can't compare
No worries! I ordered both of them from watching your reviews, looking forward to trying them out. Thanks Ian 🙏🏼
Sir Ian, which one is better for jpop, rock and edm genres, Salnotes Zero or Tanchjim Zero? Maybe anyone can help me to choose it
is it good for fps competitive gaming? new subs sir!
Yes it is good for fps games
@@ianfann thank you sir for the info gonna buy it

the truth is that i like the zs10 pro much more than the salnotes zero. but its just superficial
@@1xxe The Zs10 pro are too analytic my friend. They are tyring after 20 minutes. Zero are the ones to get👍
Hi ian, thanks for the video. whats your best tip (pun) for salnotes zero? will a wide bore like spiral dots better ?
Despite all the hate Crinicle did a good job tuning this
A quick question, Let me know one thing what is the size of the ear tips which come with the buds? is that M size Or S?
comes in SML

This has more sub bass extension and overall have a wider sound stage.
