"The chassis of the Odyssey fits snugly onto my ears concha with no pointy edges poking or any surface that would create a hotspot on my outer ears."
"Comfort was spot-on."
"Lucky me, I can wear them all day while working. 😄"

"The Odyssey is AMAZING for the price. Nothing comes close."
"Yeah the Odyssey are by far my favourite IEM in this price bracket. ... Someone from Ziigaat thought "Hey, what's the name of the best IEM in the world? Subtonic Storm? Let's built an IEM which at least graphs the same" ... and it worked out. Of course there are still worlds between, but for that price, great! ... The Odyssey is AMAZING for the price. Nothing comes close."
"I really can't see myself needing anything else unless I wanted to make a profound price jump to, say, an Oracle Mk3 or a Dunu BD."

"Imaging and Resolution is definitely the strong point of this set, very pinpoint/precise and very good detail retrieval."
"Currently, the ZiiGaat Odyssey, paired with DTS:X Headphones (worth paying for! Stick with balanced), Tripowin foam tips, and a decent DAC+AMP, is serving me the best in FPS games on PC like OW2, Squad, Battlefield, Marvel Rivals, and STALKER 2. ... Of all the IEMs I've tried, Odyssey's staging is the widest, most accurate, and most immersive for my ears. ... All the others I mentioned are varying degrees of "effective enough" at ensuring that I hear footsteps, but the Odyssey beats them all at telling me exactly where those footsteps are in 3 dimensions."
"The sound stage, to me personally, seemed very good and the instrumental separation and the image were a delight, I agree with you that it's the best thing about the headset. ... offering a stage and image that is really surprising for an IEM."

"All and all it's a very very musical set. Works on many genres (tested on j-pop, rock, edm, post rock, hip-hop, classical, slow indies) with EDM standing out amongst them. ... this is such a good set to just vibe."
"the truth is that I've been very impressed with the difference. ... They're exciting without losing that natural tone that I love."
"Much prefer the natural timbre of the Odyssey"

"clean and balanced yet still strong mid-bass punch and sub-bass slam"
"I love the bass impact without muddying anything else."
"They're nice to crank, then that gets the bass thumpin'."

"I actually do agree they sound mid af even to me at low volume and everything about it scales higher/better as the volume goes up."
"they sound very different at low to moderate volume. ... I added them to my rotation of EA1000 and Tea Pro and they sounded incredibly dull and "not hi-fi" compared to both. ... Just felt boring (once again, at mid volume, coming from Ea1000 and Tea Pro)."
"though you have to crank them."

"Ziigaat tips and cable are some of the worst in the bracket, they use the same low quality cable that you so much think is great on almost all their iems? This cable would be acceptable in the 100-120$ range but for over 200 we can get better elsewhere. ... I actually own the Odyssey and have the same shitty cable and shitty tips ;D"
"the tips that comes with it kinda sucks? They're on the harder side and the surface is not sticky at all hence I can't get a good seal on em."
"the stock tips are quite bad"

"it was so bright I couldn't listen to it over 30% volume when explorer passed 70 with ez."
"This IEM, was just not for me. I tried and tried but I don't lisen to alot of kpop to justify the forwarded vocal and became very fatiguing."
"It's very bright (not to the point of sharp but almost there) so if you're treble sensitive pls avoid this set"
I'm curious about the Odyssey 2, because I already have the Odyssey 1! Best of luck everyone
r/iems • ZiiGaat Horizon GIVEAWAY!! Enter now from 10/6 to 10/12!! ->If you like the Odyssey that much then maybe you can get it again during sales. You can also reach out to Linsoul and see what they can do about your missing piece. I like the Odyssey as well, and 2 other sets in that price range I also like are the Xenns Tea Pro and Thieaudio Hype 4. There's also the Odyssey 2, to me it's cleaner but less fun than Odyssey OG, and with better build and accessories. I still prefer the bass on the OG.
r/iems • Please recommend iems. ->Just enjoy them and give them more time. But if you’re buying in the next few months: since you love the Zero:Reds, you can definitely aim for the Truthear Novas. If you really like the EW200s, maybe try the Supermix 4 (they are kind of like the Nova but brighter). I actually had EW200s too before. >ZIIGAAT odysseys Yeah they are great, I demoed them twice and loved it. Not sure about the successor since I haven’t been able to try it. If you like treble specifically, consider planars like the Simgot ET142 or the S12 Pro. For multi-driver sets, you could also look for the Blessing 3.
r/iems • Where do I go from here? ->Either Ziigaat Lush, Odyssey 1, Luna, or Arcanis. I have tried Lush and Odyssey, and I think they are both punching way above their price point. Lush is honestly too good to skip for around $150 (based on local pricing) and Odyssey 1 is just a crazy set for about $200 (again, local pricing). As for Luna and Arcanis, unfortunately I haven’t had the chance to try them yet but hoping to tho.
r/iems • ZiiGaat Horizon GIVEAWAY!! Enter now from 10/6 to 10/12!! ->I have the odyssey 1, and I'm very curious about odyssey 2
r/iems • ZiiGaat Horizon GIVEAWAY!! Enter now from 10/6 to 10/12!! ->Got my first pair of IEMs (truthear x crin zero red) a few years ago and typically favoured TWS until I got my FiiO BTR13 this year which is when I jumped into the audiophile rabbit hole. Instead of carefully considering my next pair of IEMS using graphs and reviews, I impulsively bought a few sets to see what kind of tuning I enjoyed the most. I found the Tangzu wan’er 2 quite pleasant and wanted to upgrade from there. I went to audiofest Toronto 2025 and found the ZIIGAAT odysseys which felt like a steep price but I’m obsessed with the sound. Ended up buying the FiiO FT1 while I was there and I love them. I plan on selling the zero reds as I’m not a fan of the bass signature and I bought the simgot EW200s and I’ve been loving them very much. As of now my current daily’s are my EW200 with my snowsky echo mini or the BTR13, my FiiO ft1 and a pair of grado SR60e for desktop open backs. Where do I go from here?
r/iems • Where do I go from here? ->They’re one of my favourite sets, happy listening!
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Next best IEMs for average user? ->might be too bright, try OG Odyssey
r/iems • My Ziigaat Horizon Review - Detail Beast? ->difference is more into maturity, general sound experience, and refinement. but it definitely depends on your preference tuning(s). I previously came from the original KZ Castors (both Bass and Silver Harman), then jumped to KZ AM16 Balanced, but I have already experienced few higher end IEMs around 50-200 USD. AM16 Balanced, especially if bought on a discount or at low price (just like mine at $33 locally here in the Philippines, but in the US it might be around $50-60). Better terms of detail retrieval, instrument separation, and "soundstage" vs the Castors (even if I EQ them to a similar preference EQ I like) But with a little bit more pricy set than the AM16 Balanced, because of its deep V-shape tuning and a little bit more refinement on those more expensive sets, those sets sound better overall. (specifically Ziigaat Odyssey 1) Though personally the AM16 Balanced with PEQ is getting there, sounds wonderful, though definitely those two sets are better, But definitely I know now what to upgrade to and most likely I know what are my end game sets. Until I don't need to EQ. My Mild-V/U shape EQ is around the Xenns Mangird Tea Pro and Ziigaat Odyssey 1. https://preview.redd.it/enkhr59aqhyf1.png?width=2400&format=png&auto=webp&s=35e8f417e92d2acc4f2be3885944fbb1a67f9a52
r/iems • Difference between cheap and expensive iems ->Used Tea Pro if you want GIRTH on your tracks, it can sound a bit bite-y. This was too forward for me and the bite was too aggressive but if that doesn’t bother you (it doesn’t bother most people) this is fairly endgame tier. Treble is its weakest point, sounds like a less expensive set up there. Ziigaat Odyssey 1 for a pulled back all rounder sound with a little treble spice, it can make things sound kinda washy sometimes, but you may like that, I do sometimes. I find myself often getting lost in the music with this one, but still enjoy listening to it actively as well. Odyssey 2 for something more so dead neutral, just has a sub bass boost. You just want the music, I don’t think about this set when I use it, still think it’s great though. 7hz Divine for something straight up clean all rounder. This one I tried briefly but it was a favorite at a table with kilobuck sets. Out of these it would be the “detail” pick. Honorable mention for a used Aful P8, they go cheap. (haven’t tried 7)
r/iems • Best IEM under $300 ->Horizon and Luna. I have the OG odyssey and love them.
r/iems • ZiiGaat Horizon GIVEAWAY!! Enter now from 10/6 to 10/12!! ->I own and love the OG Odyssey and would love to try the Luna!
