Moondrop Chu and Salnotes Zero sounds pretty close in this comparison

[@WindMills_]

I have both and they are close sounding, 7hz is more balanced and also has better bass imo, but the chu's vocals and highs really shine in some songs.

[@Smzxe]

I have both but 7hz salnotes zero sounds much finer with wider soundstage and imaging Chu is trash it's metallic shouty sometimes above 70% volume There's a whisling treble in vocals Nobody talks about its annoying Upper midrange too intense at higher volumes

Does he have Shopee?

[@juelraj3901]

A nice comparison. I wasn't actually surprised I picked the Salnotes zero. That and moondrop sounded best on here easily

[@vedadtrbonja1]

I thought the E was a more expensive pair that you put as a reference. I'm getting the Chu. Thanks!

[@thesonnytackettshow7949]

I picked the Zero and the Chu immediately and on every song after that. But I use both frequently as iems for bands and it was easy for me. If you use Comply series 500 foam isolating tips, the Chus bass will become fuller and that high mid peak gets tamed perfectly. I keep a dozen each in stock . We can’t use any tips onstage that bleed so we need the 85db of isolation, and everyone I’ve ever used them with wants to buy them. I highly recommend the 03 for bass players and drummers, etc!! Once again, Comply tips. Series 200 for the 03s. Just a question, but what are you using to switch iems, a multi headphone amp or on an app? Just curious!! Thanks, Sonny T

[@as7zen405]

Which ones have better bass? I listen to punjabi music alot and with alot of drums i enjoy quite a bit of bass. Thanks

[@thesonnytackettshow7949]

@@as7zen405 we’re in the budget category here so with that the BLON 03 with series 200 comply tips is what many drummers are using. The BLON 03 is also awesome with Dekoni Mercury foam tips, we are switching to Dekoni foam tips on most of our iems. They last longer and feel better than the Comply’s. We’re also trying the new Velvet tips and Tangzu’s new tips. I advise tip Rolling on everything so we experiment! Hope you find your sound!! Sonny T

I didn't even realize that letter E and A changed specially on the track (dont hate me) sounds literally the same region

[@HKS508]

Yeah, can't go wrong with either Chu or Zero, with Zero have a bit more in the bass region for some tracks!

[@Smzxe]

Yeah I have both I honestly don't like any of them 7hz zero good clean transparent sound with very good Soundstage better than Chu But both lack bass bro it's -4 dB below Harman target Normal people or consumer likes a 12-14 dB bass boost starting from 20 Hz I like the harman target more with +1 dB little more sub bass Chu sounds terrible metallic shouty and plasticky There's a whisling treble in vocals nobody talks about Virtually no bass How people can see to like them? They are basically females or noob old listeners who can't hear below 100 Hz

[@jonnynice8366]

The CRN sounds amazing on my vido earbuds.

[@AZREDFERN]

Listening with EQ'd HD800s, they all sound like shouty in the mids except the ZSN, but that's probably just your rig. I'm still picking up 2 pairs of the Zero. One to stay with the Steam Deck, and the other as a white elephant gift for a Christmas party. I don't see the point of IEM's when they cost as much as proper headphones and never sound good. But I love good cheap ones for pocketability, and not worrying about them being ruined.

[@vic2net]

Really best comparison! It's awesome.

[@rioriggs3568]

A, B and E sound similar to me. D sounds like crap in my current airpods

[@nohai5960]

ABE sound very close, D is the worst for me while I liked C and E right from the start. E is definitely out for me being having non removable cable

Nice, I missed this video format. I thought you're no longer making these now. Just finished the video, lol I knew A and E were the most familiar to me since I own them :D CRN and Lea not bad, I think zsn pro x is not for me.

[@chinmayroy4637]

Zero sounds Full n smooth than rest of the Batch.

[@Smzxe]

Yup I have these all 7hz does sound better than them all But bass is lacking behind

[@lazylions5225]

Where is blons?

[@rogerx9298]

- ZSN Pro X -- Too v-shaped for me, treble sounds tinny and vocals/mids has lost its body. - CRN vs Lea -- Very close. Lea has slightly less bass than CRN, thus making the vocals and mid-centric instruments more focused. - Zero vs CRN -- Also close. CRN has slightly more pronounced "s" and "t" than Zero, and maybe sub-bass (?). Not sure about the bass but price difference makes Zero better bang for buck. - Chu vs Zero -- Chu has thicker mid-bass and mids than Zero, and vocals more forward. Hard to decide between these two. I listened using iBasso DC05 dac + Fiio FH3 iem, which is a warm/bassy set, so it might emphasize some freqs. I can see the hype around Zero and Chu being both cheaper than CRN and Lea.

[@devaraft]

CRN price is basically now the same as chu/zero tho

[@rogerx9298]

@@devaraft Yeah, its in the ballpark especially with Chu. Depends on the location. Where I'm at, CRN is $10 more than Zero. Enough for an upgrade cable/eartips or a beater IEM.

I thought the Salnotes Zero sounds good but judging by this test, this IEM is way too overrated. Sounds muddy without any sound separation at all. The KZ did the best even though it is bright it can always be toned down with EQ.

[@pandastudios3274]

Hi Z! Dang! That intro always gets me! It's as if Freddy suddenly booty shakes after chasing the girls away! Haha! One question... Are these iems in the video EQ responsive or will they distort on some areas? I'm asking this because i wanna try other iems in these price range. I'm coming from a KZ ZSN Pro X. I know that it is V shaped but I always play with my EQ so i may get the tuning that i want. The ZSN Pro X is very loud and doesn't distort while I play with the EQ. I can say im good with it. Because of the EQ. But still I want to try something new. Hence, my question. Or should i go up the price range?

If you're listening to this video on your phone, then what you're hearing is the sound from your phone's speakers and not from the IEM themselves. So how can you tell which IEM is better?

The heck zsn pro X😂🤣 Lea more on vocals it just hurt my ear ✌️ I love the chu and Zero.

Except ZSN Pro X, all were equally good (for my taste)

[@Smzxe]

Bro Chu and 7hz salnotes zero recording is same I can say that I have both they sound different Chu has whisling treble in vocals 7hz salnotes zero is far more refined

[@nehemiahkasika]

What would you recommend between getting the 7hz Salnotes or KZ ZSN Pro?

[@Smzxe]

@@nehemiahkasika 7hz salnotes zero But zero doesn't have enough bass it's very light bass ZSN pro X is trash so many sharp treble peeks Lmao CRA sounds better than ZSN pro X CRA also has sharper treble also

[@nehemiahkasika]

@@Smzxe Thank you for the response. I've heard audio samples of the ZSN Pro X and they are horrible. But what I had asked was the Zsn Pro. I wanted that comparison because I've own the KZ ZSN and kinder liked its sound. So I was thinking of an upgrade to either the ZSN Pro or the 7hz salnotes zero. I am a lover of well balanced music and also enjoy a nice thumbing bass. Do you think EQ can solve 7hz Zero's bass issue?

[@Smzxe]

@@nehemiahkasika EQ cannot solve bass in 7hz zero you will get muddy sound

[@francisdelacruz6439]

Zero has a clean sound.

[@renatobdc]

Zero is the best. CRN has some middle-high frequency that I did not like. Lea is too muffled. ZSN PRO X is too artificial U tunning. Chu has a little shorter frequency range than the zero. So the zero wins!

[@seanespino8202]

SADLY, I have to give up on this iem as my ears (cartilage part) really hurt a lot when using this for long periods of time unlike my previous one where I can use them for a whole day. I bought this for Valorant and it has a GREAT imaging. Maybe it's the shape that causes pain to my ears.

[@Smzxe]

Buy Audio Technica M40x or AKG K361 Before they got sold out Don't buy M20X it sounds thin and trash I own pair of 7hz salnotes zero Chu CRA EDX Ultra ZSN pro X ZST X etc etc AKG K361 sounds better than them all It sounds similar to 7hz salnotes zero but AKG has way better bass and mids Soundstage is also similar but better in AKG k361 M40X is fine not bad

[@Marstio1]

@@Smzxe hey seeing you a lot in the replies and I just wanted to ask. I think I like the Chu more and I like how there’s a microphone option I could use. I was gonna get it but I heard a lot of quality control issues on the chu where one of the sides are weaker in sound. Have you experienced this? Should I just get the zero’s instead just to be safe.

[@FuriouslyCool]

@@Marstio1 i had the chu for 4 months. you can give them a suck if channel imbalance occurs, the biggest problem with it is no detachable cable and the cable is not good.

[@farhanfuadnafi9982]

Get the CCA CRA, easily the best at that price!

[@jonathanferrer4510]

Don't buy edX pro! edX is much better

[@mjeverstarmanoj7817]

Chu and zero are best

Bet yung B (Blind IEM 2) and E (Blind IEM 5)

[@argelmangune6529]

The Reecho SG01 is better than any of those.

[@BriefOutline]

Yeah I already heard SG01 and I agree. And im planning to buy sg01 by the end of this year

[@wanaboed]

Have you tried the OVA version aka the blue one and the more expensive SG03?

[@H66699]

CRN vs CRN

[@tobiasdubiak4747]

I have the ZSN Pro X and it sounds very different from this recording. For me, it was a big disappointment when I bought it, but a long burn-in has improved it a lot so some of its qualities are much more evident. But it is still too harsh and "in your face", which makes it fatiguing. I have ordered some Zeros which I hope would be more to my liking. All the recordings sound very bad to me so it's clear why recording IEMs is close to pointless as the sound you hear most likely is very far from the real thing, the result being much more misleading than informative. And yes, I use decent quality headphones when listening to this (Much better than the ZSN Pro X).

[@aesonone]

it's not utterly pointless i've heard some believable demos out there, and no offense to the guy but this channel's demos especially are just lo-fi as hell, probly poor or obstructed mics and wrong or no eq compensation on the rig

[@VJoke.]

How do you feel about Zsn pro x and Zero? Did you tried Chou aswell? I was wandering to change from Zsn pro x to zs10 pro or Zero

[@happysoul941]

The easiest sound test ever. I picked up this order in the round 1, and the order kept getting confirmed with each passing round. 5 > 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 Chu > Zero > CRN > Lea > ZSN
