Shozy P20 Is the Best Planar IEM? 7 Hz Timeless, F1 Pro, Z12, & P1 Comparison

[@llysender]

Thanks shozy was my intro to iems with the foam 1.1. The P20 sounds like it will be right up my alley esp with the sustained air that not many iem makers do due to adhearing to harman sensabilities. Will check it out when I can.

[@Atechreviews]

P20 seems like it's going to unique. Definitely worth checking out when you get the chance!

[@roguegorilla8981]

Ive been looking to get a planar iem. I listen to bothing but metal and well in thinking after your review i might grab the P20

[@Atechreviews]

It is a great choice for metal, just know that it is a bassy IEM.

[@roguegorilla8981]

@@Atechreviews any other suggestions you might have then? I just want to experience planar and there's is just so many of them.

[@Atechreviews]

@@roguegorilla8981 The 7Hz Timeless is like a trusty old friend in the world of planar IEMs, having proven its worth time and time again against its competitors. I listen to metal music as well, and It's great for metal music because it delivers a sound that's just right-not too harsh on the drums or sibilant, and not too shouty on the electric guitars. Plus, its bass is nice and neutral, giving you a balanced sound overall. Now, if you're looking for something a bit more budget-friendly, the Letshuoer Z12 is a solid choice. It's got a bit more oomph in the sub-bass and slightly better clarity. But, be warned, you might notice a bit more sibilance, especially when those cymbals start crashing.

Haven’t heard all the planars, but the best I have owned is the S15. I like it more than the Hook and the S12.

[@Atechreviews]

I haven't had the chance to listen to the S15, but I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it! Personally, I've been really impressed with the Letshuoer Z12.

[@shaunbrady15]

Have you heard the Tangzu heyday? If so, how does this compare?

[@Atechreviews]

I haven't had the chance to listen to the Tangzu Heyday.

[@vadimempty7944]

Hi! Will the Moondrop dawn pro have enough power for these headphones?

[@Atechreviews]

Yes, enough power from the balanced output.

[@CervezasObsonMex]

Shozy p20 for $73 dlls... any other better option? Still worth it? Is it a nice price? I have the F1 PRO, SIMGOT EA500LM, KEFINE DELCI, ARTTI T10, for example... and im trying to get another for my collection... so, worth the $73 dlls? or ...is there a better option ? Thx. (Im waiting for the MP143, but I think Hidizs is going to send it untill October.)

[@Atechreviews]

I haven’t listened to the P20 in a while, but if you already have the F1 Pro, the P20 might offer stronger bass and improved treble, though it could feel somewhat redundant. It’s definitely a good deal, but there may be better options available, though they would likely come at a higher price.

@@CervezasObsonMex Enjoy your new P20 😀

[@CervezasObsonMex]

@@Atechreviews they already sent it, takes around ten days to arrive.

[@HuayraGH]

Better than Moondrop May or Truthear Zero RED or Truthear Hexa?

[@Atechreviews]

It depends on your preferences.

[@kr33k00]

Is this better than the T10?

[@Atechreviews]

Much better.

[@hekv5897]

Just ordered 4.4 version would a dac like fosi audio ds2 with 500mw power out be enough.Ds2 has more power compared to aful is it overkill

[@Atechreviews]

The AFUL SnowyNight offers slightly more power than the DS2 (300mW at 32 ohms compared to 250mW at 32 ohms for the DS2). This difference is minimal and unlikely to be noticeable during listening. It's important to note that the DS2's listed power output (500mW) is the combined total for both channels, not per channel. Nevertheless, 250mW is more than enough for 99% of IEMs, including the P20. Enjoy your new P20 🙂

[@hekv5897]

@@Atechreviews ohh thats right thanks for the replay. Is there better DACs for enhancing dynamics in the p20s within a similar price better to than ds2

[@Atechreviews]

@@hekv5897 I think the DS2 is the best at its price. It is a great value.

[@hekv5897]

@@AtechreviewsThanks for replying I've got epz tp30 from a friend, have you used them. Is Ds2 better

[@Atechreviews]

@@hekv5897 I didn't try the TP30. I think the DS2 will be similar if not better as it has better specs and lower noise which is important for IEMs. It has a clean, detailed sound.

[@TBMartin]

Interesting review, completely opposite to my opinion. I rate the 7Hz Timeless to be the better IEM than the Shozy P20. I look for an IEM that can give me the best technical sound and i find that the 7Hz fits that need better than the Shozy. Great review still

[@Atechreviews]

Thanks, I appreciate the positive attitude and fully respect your opinion and preferences. Here's a thumbs up! 👍

[@TBMartin]

@@Atechreviews No problem. We live in an age where we have to act negatively when we don't like/agree with something/someone, I try not to. So what if I didn't agree with your opinion, I still appreciate the content and the opinion. It's still a good video that went into detail, helpful details. Keep up the great work, no pressure and all that lol

[@justanotheraltaccount5644]

I wish u wld have compared it to the mp145, s12 pro, p1 max and some others.

[@Atechreviews]

Z12 is similar to the S12 Pro. Unfortunately, I don't have the P1 Max or MP145.

[@ANiCKiN]

I will leave a mad dislike, if i don't like them. :D

[@Atechreviews]

OK, 🙂 that's fair, but remember, I did say that they are bassy. This is a bassy IEM.

[@ANiCKiN]

@@Atechreviews Just opened them. And without much testing or burn in: They are amazing so far. Fit is good, even with the head on a pillow. They sound smooth, EXTREMELY WIDE and warm. The bass is not overpowering on iPhone with a dongle. Probably a beast for gaming and shooters. Worth every Cent of the 92€ i paid. 👌 The cable is shit and stinks! 🤪 Edit: I get a crackling sound when i push the right IEM. Should i consider replacement or is it normal?

[@choydeliverer7162]

@@ANiCKiN that is called driver flex, nothing wrong with the iem

[@ANiCKiN]

@@choydeliverer7162 but only on one side?

[@choydeliverer7162]

@@ANiCKiN the seal is not probably equal on both your ears. Your right ear probably is more sealed and has pressure build up thats ehy you hear cracking/clicking noise when adjusting the iem while its in your ear. Try to use smaller eartips or foam tips to relieve the pressure buildup. In my case i have tried tape modding my ZS10 Pro X to all its breathing holes and resulted into a driver flex.
