[@Gizaudio]

Full review of some of the IEMs mention in this video are here!! Tangzu Waner: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hauamGaZr9mJftU Truthear Zero: kzbin.info/www/bejne/inS8daBqprqbfqc Truthear Zero Red: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpPLh3SNnrSios0 Moondrop Chu 2: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoircml9ZsSdeK8 Tanchjim Tanya DSP: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2rOmXeLebR9oNU

[@UNKNOWN-um6vv]

I swear it is like that

[@m1ntas]

xD

[@VexxedSR]

My ears were instantly like where is the treble extension and details lol

[@Sylveighty]

Yeah it hurts at first but then after a while you will have successfully earf-ked yourself to the point where it goes in no problem 😅

[@inf888]

​​​​@@Sylveightyactually never happened to me, they were always hurting, and I would say, even more than at first. But a few days ago my dog just damaged the nozzle of one of them to the point that they're not usable anymore. Honestly I'm kinda happy that this happened to them, cause I bought the moondrop kato as an upgrade afterwards. Yes, they're completely different in everything, though one of the most comfortable iems for me

[@flashjor98]

I have the Tanya DSP, Hola, and blue zero and the Tanya is my favorite out of the bunch. The fit is kinda weird at times, but it just sounds so good for the price.

[@yeezus7]

For bassheads I'd recommend Kbear rosefinch as not only is it under $20, but the fit, comfort and BAAAASSSSSS is so amazing, really great bang for your buck IEM

[@iikatinggangsengii2471]

yeah sometimes thousands not worth

[@zecta2293]

Kz castor is much better

[@notenjoying666]

​@@zecta2293 kz qc is horrible.

Seems to be a few comments about quality issues. A shame. I might have to splash out for the Doscinco!

[@thiagomessias186]

​@@zecta2293Did you listen to both?

[@kano9091]

TRN conch is a great value and sounds great with the atmospheric nozzle. It does have an upper treble peak if you're sensitive to that though.

[@jacobbarfield7828]

Truthear needs to bring the Hola back, even at a slightly higher price if necessary

[@DarthThrash]

I just got them a few days ago, they suddenly showed up and bought them immediately. It was the mic version.

[@Rorensuwl8]

​@@VSN-wb2ly hmm not really Hola has better accessories

[@J7T800]

​@@VSN-wb2ly The better cable on the Hola is definitely a huge deal. People want the most by spending the least.

[@zadsazhad]

​@@VSN-wb2lyit does

[@M4r.17]

Yep, even if the zero 2 and chu 2 kinda "replaced it", the hola has better accesories and the design is pretty good, i like more than those two, and I would definitely buy it many times, also I think it has less bass and is more neutral in general

[@JohnClarkW]

I will take the Tanchjim One DSP over the Tanya. I still think any budget list missing the KZ Castor black/bass is doing it wrong.

[@DoctorGreen97]

Pretty sure there is a boycott on KZ products lol

[@kantokuu]

​@@DoctorGreen97 why are they boycotting KZ

[@sudipto9551]

​@@kantokuuI listened some rumors that kz is giving good amount of money for positive marketing and they are buying reviews.

[@chfsunf1ower296]

​@@kantokuuNot sure the reason but I don't buy kz bcuz how bad it's quality is. I bought 2 iem from kz and both stopped working before they hit 6months mark. So I don't trust it anymore

[@mrdrwdry]

Timmy do a upgrade ranking list based on music genre. Or sound similarity. Thanks. Great video.

[@miassenpai6057]

What I also like under 50 USD are the Juzear Clear and the Ziigaat Nuo

[@Tsukasa941]

Just pumping out these videos out, good video Timmy!!

[@pinepibble]

Perfect video timing as I need some new beaters for work and school

[@ernstpeterlegrand]

Great, I was yesterday mentioning the need for this video

[@FaizalKuntz]

All of them sounds great for under $55 Hope next year the competition will be as piercing with how the IEM technology are improving to push the price down and let more people to get into IEM space.

[@Tsukasa941]

Hola is discontinued for sure had a hard time finding mine with the mic option. Had to order it from Amazon UK

[@KHuyPh]

What's your opinion on the Simgot EW200?

[@Tanqqq]

Can you add maybe something about cheap cables for IEMS?

[@Sylveighty]

one store to rule them all: XINHS!!!

[@shaami8622]

Unless youre in the high-end category, which is far from budget, getting an "upgrade" cable on a budget is a waste of money. Just get a cheap black cable from any iem shops and youre good to go.

[@Tanqqq]

@@Sylveighty But which one for Zero red?

[@Tanqqq]

@@shaami8622 There will be nothing in around 25 USD?> I have zero red

[@shaami8622]

@@Tanqqq the zero red uses the standard 0.78 2 pin cables, most iem brands would hv those for sale. Fiio, moondrop, tripowin, tanchjim, etc just to name a few.

[@CosmicCapt]

I have the Truthear X Crinacle Reds and they are great but right out of the box the left ear bud would cut in and out at times and after getting new ones again the left ear bud cuts in and out and just now stopped working entirely. Looked up if anyone else had this issue and its a VERY common issue with the left earbud not working. Great when it works but dont recommend.

[@hmf33]

Hey, if I listen to vocals only but want something a bit more natural sounding with just a bit of crispness, any of these to recommend? I was strongly considering the Waners - I had 7hz Zeros before and also really liked them, so a bit stuck in this regard. Thank you.

[@shikitono5643]

Wan'er S.G. and Zero 2 have identical tuning for me. Go for Moondrop Chu 2 DSP since you can EQ it to your liking. Best fitting out of the tree too and it's more premium in build quality.

[@hmf33]

@@shikitono5643 I actually did end up going with the Chu 2 a few weeks back and I like how they sound a bit more than the Zero 2. Very similar tuning, only the Chu 2's lean a bit brighter which helped because I thought the Zero 2s were a just a little too dark for my taste, but just a little. The Chu 2s fixed that. Also, I'm EQing all my IEMs now thankfully.

[@sidgreat9750]

Is it worth upgrading from the Moondrop Chu 2 to the Truthear Zero Red? I'm looking for better sound quality, better soundstage, better resolution etc. I mostly play fps games like Valorant and PUBG. btw i love the tuning of my chu 2

[@ShadowNelt]

It is technically better. Beware of the nozzle size though

[@YurttheSilentChief1]

Have you ever tested the blue truthear zero with the impedence adapter from the red?

[@varunchaudhary4066]

I purchased KZ ZSN PRO 2, as my first IEM and paired it with 7HZ 71 dac, and i love the experience.

[@fuad000100]

Love that set. Airy and less peaky when compared to the previous iteration

[@TeSp00kie1]

Moondrop May DSP is my favorite around 50 euros in all 3 categories.

[@terhohalme]

QKZ x HBB is my favorite bass-IEM.

[@rickoneill4343]

This

[@lordofhell]

No entrants from EPZ though. I feel that they have been pushing decent products lately.

[@rip13th]

I'm quite curious about tangzu wan'er Studio Edition right now, what do you think?

[@wasabi926]

have you not tried the simgot ew200 and kiwi ears cadenza or do you genuinely believe these choices are better under 50 dollars?

[@CityofKentro]

I love the Truthear Zero Red but the nozzle is too damn big

[@veelik8987]

love to see Wan Er still getting love, I have a wide IEM collection but still enjoying Wan Er

[@Dream99972]

I ordered it too comin on 31 whats more better iems under 150dollar ? Do you have any suggestions

[@daniel.909]

I saw something from a few months back that someone at Shenzhen said that Hola's discontinued. Not available on US Amazon or Shenzhen, not sure about other places and other storefronts

[@Moryentrys]

Tanchjim Ola Bass or 7HZ Zero 2? Differences and why?

[@gladwinfernandezg6943]

How about Simgot EW200 ?

[@gladwinfernandezg6943]

Having used the SIMGOT EW200 IEM for the past couple of months, I must say it's been a delightful experience. As my first lEM, its balanced highs, mids, and lows offer a detailed and clean sound, though it may not satisfy bass lovers seeking heavy bass. The build quality, with its premium all-metal construction, is impressive. Overall, I highly recommend the EW 200 to anyone looking for their first lEM under 25000, seeking a better and more pleasant music listening experience.

[@pickandstring]

Qkz hbb is still a good bass head option

[@UNKNOWN-um6vv]

What is the best iem to upgrade to from the zero red? (Preferably with more spice in treble)

[@donnytramp6955]

Nova with eq(if u dont like harman ie)

[@a_talking_potato8390]

If you had to recommend what type of iem to go for when gaming what would be your pick?

[@faisalfirdausiinn4708]

The hype would agree to TruthEar Hexa for competitive gaming. i found myself using TRN MT1 lots of the times for gaming generally. .. although i have IEMs that costs at least 7x more.

[@PipeWatts-cl1so]

Is it worth paying the extra for the planars? F1 pro, s12 klanar,artti t10...

[@DonJohn87_YT]

Went from Aria to F1 Pro which was absolutely worth it imo, though from what I've heard the Artti might be slightly better value

[@telephonic]

Arttis R2 not in the video, CCA Trio is fantastic as well for the price.

[@tlfch.632]

what's the difference between waner's jade green and the other color variations? I heard that it's has a few differences but i couldnt find the answers

[@ssrb0101]

probably the art on the box and the cable, they said that jade version has better cable

[@iceorangutan]

I really didnt jnow about the sounds since im new to this, but hows the fitting in truthear hola compared to chu 2, also i thought chu2 is bassy

[@jamesmatthewnovelero9008]

Is salnotes zero still worth is or should I go for something like wan'er or the chu 2? Looking to replace my daily drive (my only pair)

[@bobrovrodion225]

which of the iem (in each section) are easier to drive? Because its such a strange thing to me , as new comer to audio hobby, that there so much budget iems(especially from kz) that are just not made for beginners, because they do need really good hifi player or dac(as i understand from reviews) BUT i have no problems with it, they just weren't made for me, and thats ok. but that wasn't obvious for me in the beginning, so when reviewers making lists like this i subconsciously ask myself, ok ,will they sound as the engineers intended with my iphone and really budget dongle. So please, it would be really helpful to note , are certain pair of iem easy or not to drive, will they sound good with beginner-level setup, it will save sooooomuch time for people like me. btw nice flow of content daum man u even resting also id like to know the opinions on tianderinhe td19 and artti r2 , will they fit in the list

[@izayoiyuta4710]

what is that song name in the end of video?

do you have any recommendations for flat-ish sound? a little bass won't be a problem. im looking at 7hz Zero:2 right now, do you recommend something else instead? thanks!

[@raishinhimura211]

@@Diabellze in my opinion of what i own at the moment it's the same onces i have from this comment chu2, TE hola, 7hz zero, and a cheaper one TRN mt1. I dont think if your looking for flat-ish the zero 2 isn't the one you might want since they are know of bass you might want to try the hola one but there are a others with a more flat profile. My flatest in my collection in my opinion is the TRN mt1 it's not premium it's on a quieter side a small amount of bass but i did enjoy daily driving it

I don't understand that basshead raccomandation... Im a pure basshead that try almost everything under 600€... and sincerely Qkz x hbb is just that iem and is not even close, is cheap, is easy to drive, is good and is that fun that outside i just bring them over everything, is a true cheap endgame (for comparison if im on the sofa and im closer to some of mine Qkz and not something like my Xenns Top, i Just take the qkz)
