Linsoul 7Hz Salnotes Zero HiFi 10mm Dynamic Driver In-Ear Earphone IEM with Metal Composite Diaphragm Stainless Steel Faceplate Detachable 2Pin OFC Cable (Black, With Mic, Type C)

These are comfortable, lightweight, headphones (IEMs) that are neutral sounding, with a narrow soundstage. The 3.5mm jack means you can plug it into numerous sound sources. I recently used this on a flight to and from Nigeria. It has 3 included tips so you can find the best fit. For me they fit nicely . Isolation is pretty good.Personally, I can't wear in-ears for long, so I prefer over-ear headphones for long listening sessions. But that's just me.

I'm not completely obsessed with getting the best audio in everything, so this review will be a bit basic, and is based around my experience with them.First impressions with the packaging, it's fairly basic, and includes loads of other eartips for you to experiment with and find your best fit, although you can't complain much about it at the price this stands for. The cable is a tad bit shorter than I would've liked, but that can be fixed with something like a cable extender.Now, the audio itself, it's very clear as you would expect from IEMs, like if someone is speaking, it feels like they're actually physically speaking in front of me. I can pick up on all the little sounds that I could likely not hear in some music and the directional audio is also very good from what I've experienced, so these would also fare pretty decently in gaming.The earbuds themselves are quite comfortable, as I don't have any general discomfort from wearing them for a while, and they kind of feel like they just disappear after a while.My only complaints would generally be the lack of bass and the microphone, as I've noticed that when listening to rather bass-y music, I can often hear the bass, but I can't really feel it actually shaking up my eardrums, which is slightly disappointing personally, but some may not mind that. The microphone is also not particularly great, as it's mildly quiet, and the audio quality from it is subpar at best, but for this price, it's not something that's a real dealbreaker for me.If you don't mind the above issues that I mentioned, I would definitely recommend this as a pick if you're looking for IEMs in this price range

for what i spend, 25 pounds, these really are great. I picked them up as i had my air pods pros stolen and needed a solid pair of iems (in ear monitors) for commuting, and these definitely punch up for there price.for reference mainly used these with an iphone 11, with the lightning to 3.5mm adapter from apple, mostly using Spotify, youtube and Netflix.bare in mind that although they are really good for their price they are at the end of the day still cheap and therefore compared to higher end iems they are not first class, however if you had not told me the price, i would honestly believe they would sit in the 50-75 pound price range.comfort wise they sit rather nicely, they come with a range of ear tip sizes all in different colours. ive had them in for several hours at a time no problem, listening to music and playing games or watching videos and always sounded and felt amazing.tl;dr, great for the price, if you need a solid pair of iems, for an affordable price, these are a no brainer

Salnotes ZeroFinally I have a pair; of what you may ask?, The 7HZ Salnotes Zero, possibly one of the most hyped-up IEMS since the renowned Moondrop Chu and for good reason! These cost £20.99 off Amazon which I feel is fair for the product deliveredComfort:The Salnotes Zero personally fit my ears very well with superb comfort and weight distribution, the cable wraps snuggly behind your ear whilst being relatively non-obstructive however the cable has microphonics but it’s mostly a low rumble that isn’t intrusive when moving about. The cable is flat and has a metal 3.5mm connector and splitter with a plastic slider.I’ve heard people mention they don’t sit in their ears very well and as a result of this have an impaired sub-bass response (I found this to be a non-issue in my personal testing)Included tips are weird, there are different bore sizes but they don’t widely vary in overall dimensionBuild quality:The body is made of solid plastic with a metal brushed face pate bearing the Salnotes logo, this feels well secured and will most likely not be prone to falling off, the removable cable ensures user replacement is easy and stress-free should you wish to upgrade or the original becomes damaged and no longer serviceableSound:Treble:Upper treble extension is rather poor and uncontrolled, it has a splashy characteristic to it when cymbals hit, hi-hats feel slightly unresolved and recessedMid Range:Male vocals come through upfront with rich and full-bodied with natural articulation at the price point, electric guitars come through with bite, body and articulation and snares have punch and depth.Bass:Bass extension in my testing cleanly extended down to 15hz, It is cleanly detached from the midrange without bleeding, letting everything punch through with sufficient weight, there’s a lack of slam and exaggerated punch but sub-bass and kick drums come through without much hesitation, There’s a slight sense of warmth in the mid-bass which adds a layered sense of nuance and depth to vocals and instruments such as pianos. Bass dynamics could be improved.Technicals:Whilst not the most detailed or dynamic-sounding iem on the market, it presents instruments naturally and articulating which makes for a pleasing listening experience. Macrodynamics and such are acceptable, different passages are rich with contrasting dynamics There’s not much width or soundstage at all and it all sounds very much inside your head.Overall:This is a very balanced and well-tuned iem that leans towards being neutral leading itself to present the source with unbias tonal balance and natural reproduction.Comfort is totally acceptable and the fit is stable and for myself would not be prone to fall out during intense activity.I am very happy to see the advancements in the chi-fi space finally quality audio can be accessible to more people than ever before and at an affordable price may I add, this is a huge step up from the likes of KZ people may have been buying just 2 years or more prior.
