I got them a few days ago. They don't hurt my ears at all. I can wear for 5 hours straight without feeling any discomfort. I use yellow tips that came with them, no complaints. I sealed the vent holes on the inner sides of buds as I've read it will increase 2db in bass frequency, if you think this is a bar idea, please let me know. They are fantastic for the price. The question I have now is how long these will last. Not expecting them to break anytime soon, and hope they'll pay for a long time.

I have been wearing mine almost 24/7 for a month and a half and they feel fine to me :)... I do generally take out one side or the other when asleep since I sleep on side and usually wake up with both out, but more habit than a huge discomfort really. The wire I also find great since I have not had a single knot which is almost unheard of for me, nor have I woken up to missing ear buds or worse with the iem being disconnected from the cable and lost like has happened with many others far too often. Compared to blon 03s (that I just kind of got stuck rebuying for a few years when they broke and I kind of liked them) the build quality is literally night and day since i haven't had to crack open the epoxy yet, lol. I am an extreme case I know but due to tinitus and a general need to keep my brain happy or just drown out the world I honestly just go about life with iems hooked up to bluetooth recievers for everything. Price wise I think I got these for around £15 - 16 during black friday (I forget and amazon isnt telling me) so I think that I got my moneys worth, and kind of wishing that I had bought 2, lol.

I was searching a couple of days for the best budget IEMs, lets say in around 20-40€ ish category and decided that sound wise these are the best, or at least my ears decided. Was deciding between the Wan'er, kiwi ears cadenza's and these. Hope they will sound better then my standard used jbl T110. Heard also the second gen Zero 2, but thy are for my taste too much base oriented, these are clear and female cocals are nice sounding and detailed, or at least I heard them trough my jbl's to be so.

I'm curious about iems so I tried sadnotes zero, my first impression is that I'm not surprised because I already have soundpeats H1, believe it or not even tws lng still experienced lossless from apple Build quality: no complain about comfort, cable a little bit short, decent isolation, eartips are hard to insert, detachable cable Sound quality: piercing if you don't have a dongle, if you're a Samsung, no need for a dongle, avani dongle In short, I didn't like his sounds, so we swapped with sis, Marshall mode wired sound is fine 10/10 hahaha

For the most part you were right, but there is actually nothing at all to complain. Listening with a good dac amp, yes, It needs nice source, like my project s2 digital, will transform you in a realistic, 3D acoustic space with big and holographic instruments placed firmly in a realistic space between each other, back and forth, left to right. My HD600 and Hifiman 5xx will get some serious competition. I love Zeros.

I would be fine with even less bass, I hate bassy IEMs. Mids are fine, maybe a bit on the lean side, the only issue is upper mid range that makes them a bit too bright. I would say Tin T2 is still better if only it didn't have that spiky treble. Moondrop Aria is also better. Other than that, idk what cheap IEM is better than these.

I use these with Comply 500 series foam ear tips which are vastly different than the foam tips supplied with most iems. Before you insert them you squeeze the tips tightly and insert them. The foam will try to go back to its original shape and will actually fit to your ear within about 30 seconds. They have the best isolation of other foam tips (Bruno Mars uses the pro series Complys on his custom iems). Once they are in the isolation brings out the bass and tames that mid hi peak. I’m using these for in ear monitors with opening acts onstage and artists filming in the recording studio, and not one person has complained, in fact the opposite. The tips are the real answer for these. I also changed cables to Linsoul Zonie , Zoe, and Kinera Ace and those three cables are super and very comfortable which is a must with my work. And I can say for sure the qc is great and all 12 pair sound identical, so it’s good to know. All the best Sonny T

Because to my ears they sound very clear actually, clarity of the background instruments for instance is awesome, they have big (headphone-like) and open sound as well. 🙃They have a litte bit of glare though, maybe thats what u meant. In clarity they are beating 100-200 usd iems like ikko oh10, fiio fh3. tanchjim oxygen (actually over 200usd), tanchjim Hana and many others that I have heard so far.

We all hear differently. I don't think the Zero excels at clarity but it for sure isn't bad at it. I think the Zero is a solid performing IEM for it's price point but isn't a giant slayer by any stretch of the imagination. I find on very well mastered and mixed tracks that the Zero lags behind in clarity, detail retrieval and resolution.

I haven't heard a Bl03 or HeartMirror in a long time. Going off memory, the Heartmirror is a more mids and treble focus with better detail and resolution but lacks bass impact and note weight.

Are these better than Blon bl03? (preference is soundstage)

The 7hz Zero has better bass control, less bloat but isn't as impactful; the mids aren't as forward but are more natural sounding and the treble isn't as shouty. Soundstage is slightly wider on the Blon but the 7hz has better detail retrieval and resolution.

@@TheHonestAudiophile Thanks sir, your response is appreciated. I am not well aware of audiophile terms yet and trying to learn and understand. Please confirm one last thing, I have Trn ST1 and AK6, they both have capsule like sound, can't differentiate b/w front and back sound sometimes. Do Salnote zero and blon have round shape sound (equal LR and FB)?

Hi dave, how do you compare it to blon 03?

@TheHonestAudiophile 2 жыл бұрын
Blon is more bassy but isn't as well controlled and defined. Mids have a little more body and are more forward on the Blon. Treble is about as peaky on the Blon, maybe slightly more. Detail retrieval and resolution are better on Zero. Blon has slightly wider and deeper stage.

Hi sir, asking a question what IEM would you recommend for hiphop music and recording purposes? Is the mic of zero Og sounds good too?
@TheHonestAudiophile
@TheHonestAudiophile 7 ай бұрын
For recording, mixing and mastering, I recommend the JQ 4U Pro, SoftEars Studio 4, Westone Mach60. For the price range of the Zero, I recommend the Tangzu Wan'er.

Frankly, speaking for normal uses you can but for competitive gaming I don't think so...

I have had this set for over a month now, and I am past the “burn in” phase that the instructions recommended. These IEMs are simply not worthy of the hype surrounding them. The sub and mud bass are lacking. The high end trebles are definitely sibilant when any measurable volume is applied. The soundstage is passable. Even paired with a very good portable DAC/amp, like the Dragonfly Cobalt, these Salnotes underperform. Ok, they’re twenty bucks, but in today’s IEMs msrket, you can do much better in this price range. My top choice would be the QHZ x HBBs. They punch way above their price tag of $20. Skip the Salnotes.
