The 7hz G1 is marketed or gets pitched often as a "gaming iem with punchy bass," it actually had no bass at all, despite EQing it everything was still very air-y and analytical. Preferential sound profile is similar to the Zero 2 Blue or Dunu X Titan.[](https://www.amazon.com/HIFIXAUDIO-7HZ-G1-Silver-Plated-Audiophiles/dp/B0DRFB71TP/ref=sr_1_2?crid=145OWH892YHPY&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.0A5YdW-YIkpHtuA6tSowAAEXq-FyiDdBWCq2ml7Kq57nu51qFDrXqBYf3e4uJRyi7wsPxclE11sC1Cpfuk2belEgTpgL01VZmnjDNaHlHMt6h2K4XClt8tIgxbuKuwOJ9_iAy3mvhmxMLasx2Pr5fJIEVtQJsk8hQvaVCNHJX4inux2ARebdSnbPFtCusU235PezWfMFQkEpwNuPAK7IvwplGHuOLIE8Ro7_X_JuboI.bmV2BbwLo5RwFbyXceTNjdvgRwqBT9_gZ5RVmUkHUR8&dib_tag=se&keywords=G1+iem&qid=1774358535&sprefix=g1+iem%2Caps%2C194&sr=8-2)
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.
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.
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.
I use G1 for Valorant and gaming and Tangzu for music, Soundstage is better on G1.
I never noticed anything abnormal with it, have Razer Kraken something too, its better than that by miles.
used to own a set but it sounded too shrill for me
