Recently got them too. Listening on iphone and for this price im very impressed. Small Dac or something the these will Sound awesome for 20-30€$£¥.
Normaly Listening on nubert speakers and beyerdynamics or Marshalls. So I personally would recommend them bc price to Sound is pretty good
Iems flatlined after the 7HZ Zero 2 came out.
You're either choosing your flavour of BA timbre machines, or a solid single DD like the Zero 2. And scientifically there is no way to measure or evidence that hybrids are better.
Guys please stop downvoting this, it's a fact, argue your point instead of being salty. Provide proof hybrids are better and Dynamics arent adequate.
I have also tried like a dozen ~100 to 600 dollar iems. And a few kilobucks.
Scientifically measurable accuracy or tuning accuracy?
These are very different questions. The 7HZ Zero 2 probably measures, by our best scientific standards, more accurately then the Blessing 3. But people will think the Blessing 3 is better because driver count and subjective opinion about the sound (Harsher = better. Not sure I ever understood that. I guess some people like zingy highs)
Still actually the 7HZ Zero 2. Bunnys spike in the uppers are not fun, Castor pro bass is a bit odd but enjoyable at least, waner 2 is tooo vocal.
Pure and hexa are mid. Pure neither has enjoyable bass or mids. Hexa is shouty. EM6L is thin. Explorer is dark asf.
The only one of these I've had moments of "Oh shit" and jumping up because I thought the sound was next to me, was from the Zero 2.
My collection goes into the kilobucks
Scammy companies making dozens of models to confuse people so they buy lots?
What else goes on.
The simplest solution is 7HZ Zero 2. Then call it a day. Don't get scammed
I am saying this from experience, I got up to monarch mk3
I have AirPod pro2s and just went with crinnacle zero:2. I did buy an upgraded cable but that was preference since it didn’t like the way the included one felt. Sound is zero percent different so not necessary at all.
On my iPod video, the warm DAC coupled with the bass favoring tone of the zero:2s hits the seeet spot of enough bass without introducing ear fatigue when I listen korn, Manson, Dre, snoop, and all the grunge/alt stuff from the 90s.
I would rank them cadenza then zero2 then chu2
The chu2 has an amazing build, smallish so easy fit. DSP is awesome, but the sound is missing something. Easy enough to EQ
Cadenza sound awesome, good all rounder
Zero 2 is a very good DD which I keep coming back to. Goes well with normal tips, foams, spinfits... I keep coming back to it
i'd still go for something like zero 2 for the sound signature. generally more suitable for the genre imo and on average a more widely appealing signature
accessories are great on wan'er 2 but tuning comes first, accessories are a nice bonus though
closer to 20$ 7hz zero 2. very widely appealing sound signature that covers many music libraries. commonly a default blind buy rec for new comers
for 30$ (atleast on black friday) i'd take advantage of the sale and go for kefine kleans. they'll be a stepup from the cheapie 20$ sets, cadenza is generally considered a sidegrade to the 20$ cheapie sets with diff tuning (though still a very nice set as well)
gk kuntens. can be found <15$ with sound quality that punches to 50$ to many ears. widely appealing allrounder so budget + soundwise they're a good safe blind buy
7hz zero 2 - if the kuntens aren't available, safe all rounder as well
wan'er 2 or tanchjim bunny - if you want vocals to shine
kz duonic - if you love alot of bass
gk kunten currently you can pretty easily find for <15$. to a good amount of ears it punches to the 50$\~ price range (ymmv), and comes with an engaging but still balanced tuning that most people will find appealing and does well for any library which is great for a first blind buy set not to mention its cheap price.
7hz zero 2 i'd go for if kunten isn't available for you. tuning is more or less a similar story with kunten, engaging but balanced and well rounded. another excellent choice for a first set
\-
from there you can more establish your preferences like oh, maybe i'd want more/less bass, treble, etc if you want to commit to a more expensive set
