Yeah but personally I like the blue 2 more. I had the ew300 don't know why but they never really felt comfortable to me. Currently I own an em6l and truthear blue 2 both I like more than the ew300.
Simgot is a bit smoother but personally I like the truthear blue 2 more. The two are close enough that you will find people that like one but not the other. Ofcourse the shape and size is a big factor in that.
I bought some zero reds and the buds weren't in the box. Like... cardboard hadn't been bent where the buds would sit, so doubt it was stolen and returned. Looks like they were never put in from factory. A photo and an explanation to Amazon and they sent a return label and then replaced no questions asked.
Amazon has been good for me for iem, no further issues at all. Depends on your country and your Amazon history, but I would say it is quicker and safer than other places.
Having said all that, depending on the store, aliexpress has been brilliant too, just a lot slower for postage
I've been using the RED for mixing and stuff (its just a hobby I'm not making anything commercial) and they have been serviceable (mixes always sounded pitchy in high ends when listening on different devices to me tho) but the cable that it came with is busted and dead. I've tried contacting Truthear but their email support is not answering and checked places to get different replacement cables but all of them ship for crazy amount of cash. Finally found a shop online that sends at normal shipping prices IEMs and i've seen and read online that Salnotes Zero are good and i guess enough for what what i'd use them? I liked the sound of the REDs which are considered neutral (?) but before that i've been using the AKG K240 headphones and got "better" mixes out of them, but for medical reasons i can't use them anymore. Now my question is, are the Salnotes good/would it be good for my needs but also should i spend more on something better (I really dont want to spend more than 100 bucks with shipping) ? Should i get the REDs again?
EDIT: Also another thing to note, the RED that i have have their shell broken but they are working, i'd just need to get new cable for them but im not sure how to get a 3rd party replacement for them. Any help would be appreciated. The site where i'm thinking to buy from has limited cables. Tripowin Zombur seems the only one that are worth looking at since the other cables are just the amount of the Salnotes or more expensive than them.
Yeah i found Tripowin Zombur which i can get and it seems they are fine for the RED (?)
Also are the Zero 2 any different? Seems like they are kinda similar to the RED one's but have the low end boosted?
I'm not sure for how long the RED's are gonna work since the shell itself is beat up and broken but functionally they are totally fine, its just the cable that's dead.
Also [hangout.audio](http://hangout.audio) is the place where i was thinking to buy which i guess its fine since its Crinacles site?
you can usually get decent 10$\~ cables from amazon or aliexpress. just look for 0.78mm 2-pin cables. tripowin, xinhs, nicehck, kbear are good brands
zero's are abit brighter in the treble versus the reds which might exacerbate the pitchy highs issues you're hearing rn.
reds are also generally just a step up from the cheapie 20$ sets like zero i'd opt for the cable
much more boosted low end then reds
get the cable from wherever is convenient with good shipping + prices + selection, most usually getting from alieexpress, linsoul, amazon. if hangout works for you then get from hangout
ye tuning mismatch between the iem and your preferences. was it the original zero blue or the zero reds.
zero are also known for their pretty bad fit for a good amount of people with really chunky nozzles.
if the blues weren't bassy enough for you you're probably a basshead and would enjoy something like 7hz legato
truthear zero have some of the fattest nozzles in mainstream iems and cause discomfort issues for a good amount of people
<50$ for gaming kefine klean is the best you can do, has a usb-c mic version. if you dont wnat usbc then you'll have to spend 10-15$\~ on a mic cable like tripowin grace

Budget gaming pick, but poor cables and polarizing bass.
