IEMs (Ziigaat Nuo) for the office/public transport, Koss KPH40X for home office use. I like to hear my surroundings a little, and I like the airiness they give.
I was just waiting for my Christmas bonus to buy some new IEMs. I was interested in the Luna, Arcadia, Doscinco, or Cincotres models. Without a doubt, this brand has come to offer other alternatives for this hobby that I didn't see coming, and since the Nuo, I've noticed that change.
The only ZiiGaat IEMs I currently have are the Nuo and the Doscinco. Honestly, all of the recent releases sound intriguing and I wish I could have the opportunity to listen to each of them to figure out which I’d like the best. Arcadia, Arcanus, Arete, Crescent, Estrella, Horizon, Luna, Lush… I just have no idea which one to choose!
zigaat nuo was the best, sadly I dont think anyone is selling it
comparable sound quality, lower quality cable and shell, much smaller nozzle and more comfortable and 1/3 the price, if you are after sound quality for cheap there are basically 2 good option Bunny and ZiiGaat Nuo which doesn't sound how OP wants his IEM to sounds, if you up the price from $30 you got better stuff obviously, Artti T10 for example for $50-60 would be a lot better than both Zero: Red and Bunny
Getting some iems i really liked has made me enjoy my music and video games more than I did before. Which I had some pretty decent purpose built gameing headphones and some lower mid grade sennheiser headphones that were/are pretty good but the comfort and sound quality i get out of sub 100 dollar iems is so good ive not used the others in forever. The quality of sound you can get for 20 dollars now days is crazy. A few ive got at various times on amazon for less than 10 dollars that are fantastic. The ccz dc 02, ccz dc 03, ziigaat nuo, kz edc pro, Celest lgniteXBeast and the blon bl max and their all great.
I'm probably in the minority here, but I have no complaints about a company releasing a ton of options with branded Knowles or Sonion BAs instead of bellsing crap. People have no idea the price difference in branded BAs is sometimes an increase of 10X over drivers companies like Aful use. If you are at all familiar with graphs and how an IEM diverges from JM-1 (neutral), plus the different properties of certain driver types (Dynamic vs. BA vs. Planar etc) you can usually guess 90% of what it sounds like. I like options. My only complaint is their shell shape creates a pressure point on the top/back of my ear. Ziigaat's shells are the only ones I've ever had a problem with. CHANGE UP THE SHELL SHAPE GUYS.
Part of me thinks: *You’ll have fun with almost anything you pick, just choose one and enjoy the music.* This is actually the truth. 5+2, volume S, 12 different ziigaats, hype 4 mk1/2, etc, etc, they all rock and you will be happy unless you can back to back them and pick them apart otherwise 99 percent wouldn't be able to find any real flaws, not to mention the 20 planers I didn't include.
