I just want to say a big thankyou to the GOAT of audio, Art. I've followed your insight, advice and admired your work for a while now.. I finally made the move to IEMs, I did a little research and then considered many of the affordable ones - I chose the Linsoul KZ ZS10 Pro, 1 Driver + 4BA.. they might not be the most expensive, but still around $60 your money and my god, I didn't know sound could sound 'whole', everything just so cleanly separated, clear, spacious and I've gone through 100s of what I thought were great headphones/headsets (early 30s now) for triple the price.. but none of them have come close to the experience IEM.

@@xRoyalYT Indeed they are also louder on my side, so much sensitive that I keep Windows sound to 16% 🤣 On my side I tried just like you and I had blank noise interferences without playing any sound. So I had to buy a DAC to get rid of it (but I could still hear it a liiiittle bit on some music if I really focus my mind on it) Does it mean you have an external mic plugged on the rear of your PC too ? On my side I bought the Kinera Gramr but my mic sound was not terrible. So I was confused if I had to buy an extra device to plug it correctly to my PC.

to be fair you most likely just dont know what you are doing. IEMs are the best value and are just great in general sure. However if you run a dac/amp and buy actual nice headphones, its about the same honestly. of course it all depends on what you spend and where. obv id recommend chifi dac with chifi iems for a person getting in to audio gear, js.

@@c0rpse1 i have a pair of hd599s and Beyerdynamic DT770 80 ohms. Hd599s are shit compared to almost every iem i own. The DT770 FEELS premium on the head, but it's stuffy since it's a closed back. Sound is more fun than my most fun iem Kiwi Ears Melody , but in terms of clarity, it loses out to all my IEMs. But something more expensive than the DT770s is spending double that of an iem for equivalent sound. I hear headphones are better at the high end category, but I'm not sure if the case holds up for games because game sounds are compressed. IEMs are just more comfortable IF you don't have an issue with the fit. Tip rolling helps here.

Great video man. From someone already using decent headphones (PC38X), would you still recommend switching to something like the orchestra lites? Ive been reading/watching good reviews on both, but nobody ever really compared gaming with good headphones and good iems, and what they would prefer over the other. Im happy with my pc38x, but i feel like im missing some directionality and detail in some scenarios which is why im on the fence on trying out new stuff.

@@corvusgaming1577 the only time u would need the 4.4mm jack is if u had a dac with a 4.4 balanced output that u wanted to use. Get the 3.5. As far as the Apple usb adapter is just really good for the $9 it costs on Amazon. It’s usually louder and sounds better than the motherboard headphone jacks but they don’t require a lot of power. Anything will push them just fine and they sound great regardless. U don’t “need” the adapter. I just like the extra power being there if I want it. They’ll be plenty loud enough for gaming and normal music listening with your pc output or really anything else.

I am wondering if you have any experience with the bone induction technology as far as gaming. I just discovered these the other day and was kind of blown away, but not sure how it would go with gaming. My ears are odd shaped and I've found that in ear speakers don't work well for me because they start hurting after a while and giving me a headache, and If I'm exercising they just fall out alot. I had to get ear molds made to fit my airpods so they wouldn't hurt or fall out. But this bone induction thing seems kind of cool, but not sure if I want to give up my noise cancellation yet.

I have a few IEMs, favorites being the Tin T3+ and Final VR3000. The VR3000 is the best at gaming but I find the Tin to be better overall primarily due to the more preferential tuning (heavy bass, warm, not much treble sharpness). Despite this, I use headphones for gaming most of the time as I like to listen to music simultaneously. My two most used headphones are Philips SHP9600 (open back dynamic), and Hifiman HE400SE (open back planar). I'm not too serious about positional accuracy of sounds (aka "imaging") but the SHP9600's have decent positional accuracy but the Final VR3000 does it even better, which is strange coming from an IEM but it of course won't sound as wide as most open back headphones. IMO the best headphones I have are the Hifiman HE400SE (open back planar) and BASN ASONE (planar IEM's). They both do extremely well for detail, soundstage, and separation (sounds not muddying together). Unfortunately I have to EQ both of them, the ASONE absolutely requires EQ in the upper treble (around 6k all the way to 16khz) due to how insanely sharp it is. IEMs really do appear to punch above their weight for sound quality and tuning (most of the time, haha), but in my case I'm not very competitive so I use what I want depending on how I feel, and I switch to the better pairs when I really want to dig into my music. Lastly on your comment of "driver fatigue", that is associated with poor separation. Separation generally means how clearly you hear sounds while other sounds are playing. As an example, a terrible headphone during a heavy bass hit will easily drown out the other sounds, but a good headphone can play that bass while other sounds can be heard. It's also worth noting that masking effects play a part in this, so tuning can actually contribute to perceived separation quality. Just putting in my experience and insight, I hope this is not a bother.

I’ve used over 6 IEMs so far. My favorites out of them being the Aria snow edition the reviews on these were pretty bad for the most part but personally they sound leaps and bounds better than the Truthear Crinacle Blues I still recommend the hell out of the Zeros specifically the OG blues. I also used the Zars, Quartets, Quintets, Aria 1 & snows). Crazy part is I actually prefer headphones. I’ve owned a bunch of Audeze/Beyers/Senheisers. I still love to use my IEMs every so often but I ended up daily driving headphones (especially since it’s gaming 99% of the time). Which for anyone curious, is the beyerdynamics DT 900 Pro X.

please can u say if there is any DAC/MIxamp that can compress the sound without software so that we can use art is war like sound on PS5, or is there any way/compressor atleast to use loudness EQ on PS5? I saw a video where someone could use his game sound from PS5 tru PC with line in and enabled loudness EQ… you should know better

Really new to IEMS just heard of them and starting to see more streamers use them, so, my question is, what IEMS are the go to for warzone, might be a weird question since it's all preference but what are the go-to's so to speak, and considering i usually get the more high end headsets ranging 200-300, i would say i wouldn't mind getting a really good pair of IEMS. Will i have to get a DAC as well or just plug and play basically

If you can find a pair even used in good condition get the Raptgo hook x they are some of the best iems I’ve used for Warzone they are semi open back so they have a nice natural wideness pause no diddy😂

From a structural stand point the Simgot EM6l and the Truthear Nova are using the exact same configuration to produce sound. The only thing different between these two is the tuning/frequency response. Your comparison against these two products is a prime example of impact on frequency curves to the consumer. A good example of this can be seen in The Headphone Show review of the Subtonic Storm. I'd also like to point out that for gaming, Call of Duty is very unique in the fact that you can EQ the sound in game in audio mix setting. Studio reference setting leaves the sound neutral and should be used to when comparing products to prevent tolerance stacking. You also seem to prefer the Truthear over the Simgot because of the better bass. Technically speaking the Simgot has a better bass response than the Truthear out of the box. This also is a great example of the importance in ear tips. Typically the tighter the seal provides on an IEM, the bass response should improve, but the material and structure of the ear tip can affect this greatly as well. This is why you see products like the IOaudio Volare come with 15 different ear tips in the box. This is probably the cause of your experience between the Simgot and Truthear. These nuances are exacerbated in IEMs because of the fundamental way they are used vs over ear headphones. TLDR: "Generally" speaking if you are buying two different IEMs with the same driver configuration you are just paying for EQ. Ear tips play a major role in the experience of an IEM and the same IEM can change dramatically just from a different tip. Spend some extra money and explore the aftermarket.

glad I came across thischannel. I don’t know if you got a chance to review them but the Linsoul KZ ZS10 pro iem’s are my personal go to. I’d love to hear your impression of them (unless you’ve already done so) they are great and at $50 they are imo very hard to beat. I upgraded the cable to a braided type with a built in mic for gaming. Great video, subbed 🍻
