"Literally couldn't think of any pair of IEMs + dongle dacs could sound as analytical as the C3P+ for around $70. ... detail is just sooo much better. The C3P+ is just leagues ahead the I5 in terms of detail and resolution. ... the C3P+ is actually the closest sounding one to really expensive iems or headphone that I have."
"Crazy good from the jump! ... When you factor in they're only $99 and go toe-to-toe with Bose QC Ultra at $299, this is the deal of the year!"
"Can't recommend them enough for the value, sound like $200 earphones."

"For gaming, these are perfect. ... As a valorant immortal, tier 2 and premier player, I can confidently say that the imaging and soundstage are spot-on. ... Footsteps, directional cues, and in-game sounds are incredibly precise and natural, giving a competitive edge without any unnecessary bass/treble bloat."
"For gaming the Tea Pros so far are a 10/10, I play mostly Hunt: Showdown and the additional separation, staging, and tighter but punchy bass were all noticeably better for my ears."
"endgame ... Otherwise I probably wouldn't use any other IEM for gaming but this ... The best was definitely the EM6L where I felt nearly no difference in performance with my headphones ... The EM6L is by far and away the best iem for fps gaming. ... But as of rn the EM6L is the best imo ... The EM6L is still king of gaming in my opinion. ... Em6l is still end game."

"The pinpoint accuracy is insane. I played Valorant on PS5, xDefiant and Warzone. ... This was more noticeable on Valorant as it is a more sound dependent game. You won't miss anything with these. I started to watch out at angles I wouldn't watch with the others because some audio cue made me suspect a door and ... it was 100% right all the time. I could tell where they were with excellent accuracy, both horizontal and vertical."

"Insanely Wide Soundstage – The G1 made Nuketown feel HUGE. Warzone’s larger maps are even more immersive. ... If you want insane spatial awareness, wide soundstage, and accurate positional audio for FPS games—this is the one to get. ... yes it has a wider soundstage than other iems."
"Pinpoint Positional Accuracy – I could clearly track footsteps, gunshots, and even subtle movements. Whether enemies were on the left, right, front, back, above, or below, I could hear it all. ... Crystal-Clear Footsteps & Cues – Footsteps were loud enough without getting underpowered by other sounds such as gunshots, grenades etc. ... If you want insane spatial awareness, wide soundstage, and accurate positional audio for FPS games—this is the one to get."
"Both work great for imaging in gaming, amazing for the price."

"No bass"
"Hexa is boring af ... only use it for monitoring"
"It's the lack of bass! ... I need bass and weight to enjoy music, and the Hexa was just lifeless, like all the emotion was sucked away."

"Well, I do agree with the trash cable part of the comment in reference to QKZ x HBB. I disliked that cable more than any other stock cable I ’ve come across and couldn’t replace it fast enough."
"The cable was atrocious"

"So If you are treble sensitive like me then the G1 are not good at all. ... There is a treble spike somewhere and everytime I hear it , I get headache. I am not kidding. Literally headache. ... The same goes for music. There is a frequent S and SHH harshness in these. ... So again if you are treble sensitive like me then the G1s are a huge deal breaker."
"if you can handle the boosted bass and treble."
"Mostly due to treble"

"The problem with the G1's is the bass drowns out the mid-tones too much."
"Bruh, I cannot agree with you on this. ... if I am shooting a gun or using cells or batteries, an enemy will run behind me and I wouldn't know. ... Basically gun fires and other noises will drown out the foot step. ... The sound separation is not that good in heated situations. ... if I had to pick a pair for competitive gaming, I wouldn't choose these."
"footsteps in the g1 gets overwhelmed a little when theres like a lot of sounds compared to the zero."

"There is this weird hissing sound I am hearing in the G1 whenever I plug them into my audiocular D07 dongle and smartphone. ... And whenever there is any music playing through the iem it will sound like as if it is hissing. ... Same for games. Any slight wind noise and the hissing takes over."
EM6L are indeed good for gaming, but 7Hz G1 were also a good surprise.
r/iems • Budget IEM for gaming? ->7hz, Truthear, Mangird, Dunu. Lots of different options at different price points, and every year the tech gets cheaper/better implemented so an $80 IEM at this point is pretty close to a $300 IEM from 5 years ago. Truthear Hexa is my go-to recommendation, has a really natural presentation and good bass.
r/me_irl • Me_irl ->I think the iem you are looking for is the 7hz G1. I have a strong gut feeling you will like it.
r/iems • Confused to choose between them for Competitive Gaming under 30 dollars range. ->Agree with you on this part. It nails the gaming aspect perfectly. I was worried if the gunshots were going to be too loud but not at all. The soundstage is very wide and separation is excellent. I did have one issue though. There is this weird hissing sound I am hearing in the G1 whenever I plug them into my audiocular D07 dongle and smartphone. I don't know why but It is there. And whenever there is any music playing through the iem it will sound like as if it is hissing. Same for games. Any slight wind noise and the hissing takes over. The people here over reddit say it is an impedance mismatch and that is the reason why I am having this issue and the impedance mismatch cannot be resolved without altering the sound tuning of the item( i.e.using an impedance adaptor)
r/CODWarzone • 7Hz G1 - The Ultimate Budget Gaming IEM? (Review) ->Have you had any such hissing or static sound in the 7hz G1?
r/CODWarzone • 7Hz G1 - The Ultimate Budget Gaming IEM? (Review) ->Eqs are a different thing compared to technicalities. Eqs will only affect how the iem sounds. They don't improve stereo or spatial audio or even the seperation of sounds. These elements depend on how the drivers are designed and tuned from base. You cannot change or upgrade technicalities using any means. These are what makes gaming IEMs different from regular IEMs. I currently have the 7hz G1 and I can actually tell how good the 3d audio is perceived in these. You can pinpoint the footsteps location and easily tell if it is vertical depth of width.
r/iems • Best iems under 20 dollar ->So If you are treble sensitive like me then the G1 are not good at all. There is a treble spike somewhere and everytime I hear it , I get headache. I am not kidding. Literally headache. The same goes for music. There is a frequent S and SHH harshness in these. So again if you are treble sensitive like me then the G1s are a huge deal breaker.
r/iems • 7hz G1 - Gaming ->Currently using the 7Hz G1 with the Audiocular D07 DAC and it's really good. Price is slightly higher than 3K, IEM was ₹3,200 and DAC was ₹800. Purchased from The Audio Store and had zero issues. I'm not an audiophile and this is my first IEM, but I'm very happy with it and it sounds great. I mostly listen to Pop, EDM and songs with female vocals. Everything I've listened to has been really good and everyone (casual folks) I've shown it too have really liked it.
r/headphonesindia • Suggest best iems under 3k!! ->KZ Saga Balanced are one of the best musical IEM's with solid bass performance in the price range. The BL-03 II is very similar to the BL-03, its a little crisper, and more detailed than the OG. But its OK to sacrifice some of the OG's note weight for more detail and texture. I also think the new BL-03 II is built a little better, has a nice cable, and fits better in the ear. I would suggest Spinfit Omni's or Dunu Candy tips for it though. The stock tips are...meh. Though it is a more gaming oriented IEM, the 7Hrz G1 is also very nice and V shaped in its tuning.
r/iems • Best iem for electronic music / techno under 30€? ->The G1 is better than the 7Hz Zeros. But the Elua Ultra is better than the G1. Bass has more texture, vocals are cleaner, and treble extension has better timbre then the G1 which can sound a little metallic at times. The design of the G1 is, IMHO, more robust and clean with its metal shell, and the style of the Elua Ultra is subjective, but the plastic shell has held up ok thus far, even on my much naligned OG Eluas. The Elua Ultra cable is pretty bad, but it's serviceable, whre the G1s is actually nice. The G1 also comes with a nicer selection of 07 style tips, where the Elua Ultra comes with the same set of Medium and large tips in three different shapes. But the "best" ones, the red conical tips, are now in Black. I dont think you can go wrong either way. I think the Elua sounds better, but the G1 is the better accessorized and built set. Take your pick.
r/iems • 7hz G1 or 7hz elua ultra? ->bunny dsp/7hz salnotes zero/tangzu waner sg2. Personal recommendation - tangzu
r/headphonesindia • Type C IEM recommendations under 2k ->Get the 7Hz G1 - 35USD It's an absolute ....steal. [https://youtu.be/U10OZIfBElE?si=1ZVd7028lGv4v6VJ](https://youtu.be/U10OZIfBElE?si=1ZVd7028lGv4v6VJ)
r/iems • Should I get cheap IEMs instead of cheap earbuds for casual music listening? ->I bought Tangzu Wan Er 2 and 7Hz G1, just for music listening, they both sound better than my XM4 and Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.
r/iems • What kind of black magic is this?! ->I use G1 for Valorant and gaming and Tangzu for music, Soundstage is better on G1.
r/iems • What kind of black magic is this?! ->I never noticed anything abnormal with it, have Razer Kraken something too, its better than that by miles.
r/iems • What kind of black magic is this?! ->7hz G1 or Kefine Klean for fps games
r/PHbuildapc • Best IEM with best sound quality under 2k Php? ->Glad you like them. I got them along side the Vivace and thought the Vivace were better so returned the G1. Mostly due to treble and separation. However this was just in comparison to the Vivace. They're still really good.
