The Simgot EM6L gets recommended often. So does the Simgot SuperMix4. I have no personal experience with those as I don't like brightly tuned headphones/IEMs. My go-tos have been a heavily EQd set of KiwiEars Quintets. Just picked up the Binary Acoustics Dynaquattros and, despite their bassy tuning, they're surprising me. Was gaming with Truthear Hexa, and the KZ ZAX before that. The Hexa is pretty good for games, bit can be a little piercing with reloads and bullet shells in some games. The KZ ZAX was just a treble monster, and I disliked it. You could try to find a pair of used Mangird Tea 2s as their tuning works well for games without being piercing. A word of advice regarding driving these things... If you're going to try to use a controller to drive your IEMs, try to buy a unit that gets close to 32 ohms input impedance. Any less than that and you're running the risk of serious audio issues, depending on which units ypu buy. For reference, the Simgot SuperMix4 is a multidriver unit that has a planar driver in it. The input impedance of those units is 7.5 ohms. The impedance discrepancy between drivers is large. If you run them off of a controller or a PC front panel, you'll wind up with muffled treble.
r/inearfidelity • Best imaging IEM's for comp fps ->Was using KZ ZAX now using PR2. I really like the almost-too-harsh clarity of the planar drivers for gaming.
r/iems • Best iems for gaming ->KZ ZAX is my fave so far. Got a Zx10 pro 2 on the way, but ZAX is an improvement in cohesion and quality over 10 Pro 1
r/inearfidelity • Recommend me IEMs like Salnotes Zero 2 ->May I recommend KZ ZAX. Better than ZS10 pro and about $40 on Alie
r/iems • KZ Sonata ->I started with the Shure SE215 and they had very little bass. I got some Westones AM Pro 30s and wasn’t impressed by them either. I now have the KZ ZAX with an upgraded cable (Tripowin 16 core) and they make the little hairs in my ears *DANCE*. The frequency response is a little scooped, but they’re the absolute best bang for your buck imho.
r/Bass • In Ear Monitor recommendation ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
