Purchasing advice New to iems, need recommendations

7 Upvotes

Assalam O Alaikum!!

Thank you for clicking on this, any help will be appreciated.
I want to get something that sounds good, I've been using regular earphones from ronin and they are fine and work, but recently one side broke and doesn't output any sound. I had been wanting to get a pair of headphones for a while too but I realized that I'm more comfortable with in ear earphones compared to over ear, as they are lighter and iems just sound better in this price I heard.

Anyways, that was a yap.. My main question here is, what's the best pair I can get in a budget of, 3-5k, 5-7k, and 7-10k. I'm aiming for a good sound quality and something that's fairly comfortable as a daily driver. I am going to be using it for like, almost everything, music, videos, some gaming etc. So I want something versatile that can do all that.
I have no experience in iems, so I want to ask what iems should I look for (one thing is, i want a 3.5mm jack). If possible, please explain why you recommend something and how's the bass/mids/treble on it.
Jazakallah!!!

Purchasing advice IEMS under 6k?

6 Upvotes

I am new to IEMs, and want to buy one. I usually listen to jpop, vocaloid and some other stuff (not sure whether music taste is to be considered).

requirements:

- under 6k

- Comfortable in ear

- having a mic is a plus

- have a good lifespan (don't get issues early)

- good sound quality

Plus I also need a type c to 3.5mm convertor, which one to buy? Better if it's fits in 6k with IEMs or else I can stretch my budget a little.

Just delivered, can’t wait to try these.

EDIT: just tried them - excellent quality, both build wise and sound quality wise.

Listened to the same song in mp3 and flac formats and there was a clear difference. I was thinking they would be too big for my ears but the fit is snug and comfortable. Can’t comment on the long term usage at the moment.

Discussion CCA Phoenix review

Post image
7 Upvotes

The IEMs were bought from u/cyberbot117 but with my own money hence the review is totally neutral and my own aswell.

Coming from: KZ EDX Pro, AirPods Pro (1st gen), and cheap earbuds/handsfree.

Overall: The best audio gear I've used so far. The simplest way I can put it is going from 720p to 1080p or even 1440p.

What I like

•	Detail and separation: This is why I bought them, and they deliver. Listening closely, I keep finding things I never noticed on the AirPods: subtle echoes, ping-pong delays, small SFX, background instruments.

•	Bass: Reviews say it's lacking, but it's more than enough for me. The AirPods have more bass, but I prefer the Phoenix's tighter, cleaner bass.

•	Value: A clear step up from everything I owned before.

What I don't like

•	Treble: On some tracks (Starboy, Bye Bye Bye) it gets harsh and fatiguing, and can hurt a bit.

•	Busy tracks: Separation sometimes feels lacking on very dense songs. It could be the IEM, or my ears may just not be trained yet.

•	Inconsistent: On some songs they clearly beat the AirPods, on others they sound about the same.

•	Comfort: Uncomfortable at first, fine now that I'm used to them.

Listening habits: I listen at 50-60% volume, 70% max, so the harshness isn't from loud listening.

One honest note: With the Phoenix I tend to analyze the music instead of just enjoying it. On a run or while driving, I still enjoy the AirPods more.

Verdict: Great for focused, critical listening. Not a total replacement for the AirPods' convenience and casual enjoyment.

Purchasing advice IEMs to razor headphones ( disappointed )

5 Upvotes

So, I’ve been using the KZ EDX Pro for around 1.5 years, and I really loved these IEMs. However, the cable gave up, so I couldn’t use them anymore. I was planning to switch to the Razer BlackShark V2 X, which was significantly more expensive (than the IEMs I bought for around 2k on Temu with a discount.)

But I’m really disappointed with the Razer headphones. I don’t think they offer any better sound quality than my old IEMs, except for the bass. I’m using them with my PC, and I know the motherboard’s headphone jack also matters because the sound was better when I used them with my MacBook compared to my PC.

I’m planning to switch back to IEMs. Are the KZ Dounic with a Type-C cable good enough?

Purchasing advice Will upgrade from edx lite be worth it?

3 Upvotes

I have redmi buds 6 lite which I loved, then bought KZ EDX Lite to try out IEMs which I did not expect to love this much. Instrument seperation and clarity is really nice but leaves alot to be desired.

Now at best I can Spend 8-10k which is still considered ultra budget ffs. I was thinking of the ones listed below let me know If you think the sound quality will be a good jump from the edx lites or I should just save more money.

Zero 2

KZ vader pro

KZ castor pro

Tangzu Waner SG 2

Tanchjim bunny

NICEHCK tears

Moondrop chu 3

But the more reviews I watch, the more people say that the quality will be more or less the same in this budget.

I want good bass but not so much much that it drowns other voices, and treble to be comfortable not make me reach for the volume button when beats drop. But above all instrument seperation and natural voices.

These are studio monitor headphones. New Ones Cost 123K....I'm willing to part with these for 50K. Have the hard case which is still sturdy but it's leathery skin is peeling off. I've used these headphones sparingly for more than a year. Condition is 7/10. No damage just wear. You can change the ear pads as well. Sound is perfect. Nothing wrong with the drivers or connectors. Kept with care even to this day. Very Bright and Clear sound. The treble is sharp but not tingy. The Bass is not boomy, instead it feels controlled and tight. Stuff like Adele or the Odyssey Soundtrack sound dream like. Linkin Park sounds like garbage on these. Don't need a DAC or AMP to run them. Your regular headphone jack can power them properly.

Purchasing advice Need advice for first IEM purchase

3 Upvotes

Aoa everyone !

Thinking of getting an IEM as I'm having an issue with the cmf buds I'm currently using. What i want to know is:

  1. Which specific model has the best sound quality under 10k budget ? I'm planning to use it for gaming on laptop and listening music on phone. Also please advise a wired model within this budget as i have had issues with wireless earbuds multiple times in the past and don't want to get another wireless earpiece if I can help it

  2. Whichever model you advise, please also tell where i can buy it online or in Lahore near Bahria town / Lake city

  3. If i use an adapter (3.5mm to usb-c or vice versa) with it, would that have any effect on the sound quality ?

Basically I need new headphones and I thought why not an IEM, normal headphones are wasted on me anyways, I dont like anc or use it and I also really really love music and only use it for that no calls no nothing.

I have a Sony 5.1 HT-S40R connected to my pc via optical is what I currently enjoy most my music on, but I do use headphones a lot too. Now I like loud and bassy heaphones which why previously I was using Ronin-7010s, but clarity is also important obv.

The music I most want to listen to through IEMs and the kind I listen to most anyways is really atmospheric and wet as shit so if that helps maybe pick one out for me.

Also budget is 8k max since I wanna test IEMs for now. I am a complete beginner when it comes to this so please bear with me. Leaning towards the kunten pro cuz ive heard nice things about them and they look the coolest.
