"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."

"Back to back in my opinion they blow the airpods pro 2 out of the water in clarity, separation, and punch."

"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 ZS12 it ’s better than both most likely. ... The zero 2 is outclassed for sure in every way ... ZS12 PRO X that has 5 extra BA drivers that improve clarity, resolution details soundstage etc."


"Absolutely insane imaging. I can point exactly where each sound comes from: left, right, front, or even a bit behind."


"The soundstage feels genuinely wide — about 4 to 5 meters in perception, which is something rare even among much higher-end gear."

"Comfort is superb for me, no problem at all running them all day everyday when I WFH with constant meetings or music going on for 8+ hours."


"Distances 20KM+, I think the Prodigio Pro's good balance of comfort and grip just wins here."


"I did run a 100km race in the full size up without touching the shoe once in the whole race."

"I kept feeling them on and thinking they would fall off my ears at any moment, it would distract me from my run."


"don’t recommend for the gym. ... They’re only IPX4 rated and don’t have anything to grip your ears with. ... They constantly fell out of my ears while moving, to the point I returned them."

"The second is distinct lack of dynamic range. ... Listening to the Rain Song by Zeppelin at about the 6:02 mark and Satyam Shivam Sundaram by Thievery Corporation at about the 2:52 mark distinctly show that lack of dynamic range."

"shitty bass"

"Can't recommend it due to it's nozzle QC issues. ... It is an easy fix by super gluing it back on but that shouldn't even happen for an iem worth $110 in the first place. ... My Em6l nozzles came off but a drop of super glue fixed that."


"Can't recommend it due to it's nozzle QC issues. ... Otherwise I probably wouldn't use any other IEM for gaming but this ... Just unfortunate that it has a nozzle QC issue ... Simgot should really update the em6l and fix the nozzle coming off issue. ... It is an easy fix by super gluing it back on but that shouldn't even happen for an iem worth $110 in the first place. ... You will just need glue to fix that nozzle issue ... but has nozzle QC issues, can be fixed with super glue ... I would buy that along with super glue for inevitable nozzle issue"


"I’ve heard some complaints about the metal nozzle falling off, leaving the eartip and nozzle stuck in your ear. ... I had this happen myself about a year ago, but I thought nothing of it and glued it back on at the time, thinking mine might have been an outlier. ... Since then I’ve heard of it happening to others, and it just happened to my set again. ... These were one of my favourite IEMs, but I don’t feel comfortable to recommend them if this is a widespread issue."

"Don't look at EW300 for gaming. ... They are just neutral for this, you will feel like all the enemies all on the same horizontal level, no vertical feeling at all."


"The footstep resolution was god awful."


"not endgame. ... Might get some hate for this but I was really not impressed by this iem for gaming."

I have 10-ish different models in the 10€ to 150€ range, mostly for PUBG and about 3000 hours in the game. Here are my top picks: - Tripowin Vivace 35€ - Simgot EM6L 120€ - Truthear Crinacle Zero blue 60€ (need AMP&DAC) - QKZ x HBB 20€ In that order. For other games, the Simgot and Crinacle Zero jump higher. The next ones can do, but not competitive: - Moondrop Quarks DSP 15€ - 7Hz Salnotes Zero 25€ - Apple earpods 3.5mm 20€ - KZ Zex Pro Crn 40€ Can't recommend for PUBG: - Moondrop Chu 25€ - Brainwavz Omega 15€ I recommend checking Fresh Reviews on Youtube, he checked many pricier models...

I have had like kadenz, aria, aria 2, em6l, actually im not gonna bother listing all of them, like 30+ iems from 50 to 250  No benefit that I can see.  Also, The concept of tuning an iem seems absurd to me. Recording methods and audio software should improve and then there should be an actual scientific baseline thats iem is tuned flat and sounds are tuned to be correct. Also apple solved this entire problem by putting mics in airpods and tuning it to your ear. Until better tech and proper scientific baseline is established, I will get banned from reddit repeatedly for criticizing this sub

Though it may be a tad harsh in the treble, the Thieaudio Legacy 4 is probably your best bet. If you want something more relaxing and better for all genres, then the Simgot EM6L unless you can find a second hand Moondrop Blessing 2 (original or Dusk) for less than $200. ETA: I haven't tried the Meze Alba yet, but I've heard good things about it and the Empyrean is fantastic for orchestral music.

Probably either my Simgot EM6L or KZ Zenith. Both are fairly warm, V-shaped tunings that play it safe but keep it musical. Zenith has tuning toggle switches you can mess with to slightly modify the sound and the EM6L is just nicely tuned out of the box. Nothing crazy from either of them, but I wouldn't be mad if they were all I had. Probably the best in the $50-150 price range, but I'd honestly save money for something better or stick with something cheaper like the Zero2 and CHU2 since it doesn't really get good until the $300+ area imho. I could be dead wrong about that, but that's just from my experience.

EM6L is bright trash?? Huh, mine must be a defect then since it's warm neutral tuned... though I agree that it sucks for vocals.

EM6L are indeed good for gaming, but 7Hz G1 were also a good surprise.

My pick would be the EM6L. They are very detailed and pretty comfortable to wear during hours.

great but with the qc caviat of the nozzle just falling off for some people if you don't want to risk that then i'd look into cca hydro or simgot supermix4

It's a great first choice. When you are ready for a little extra, try the EW300. Or for a little more, the EM6L. By the way... Out of curiosity are you playing PC or console? How are you setting up your IEM?

Yeah me too, I have some very expensive sets, like the IE600, and I prefer the EW300 over the IE600... I still prefer my Ziigaat Odyssey, or my Mangird Xenns Top, but damn the Simgot is indeed very very good for the asked price
