Keep in mind guys, the clips in the video are more so to demonstrate, in general on the same height / level, the directional audio and cues are not BAD. I did not include clips of vertical imaging failures to highlight the issue, because I hard formatted prior to the posting of this video as a result of PC issues.
What did you have to format for? Im very curious. Shit happens to me all the time. BTW.... Sony IER-M9 Try it.
Have you tried the dt990 pros? I just replaced them with the dt900 x and I think the pros may be better.
@@ashflame6888 I format pretty regularly
Love the detail on your reviews. You’re one of the best at this
that's so good to know! thanks for the gaming focused review!
i can't believe the input and the feedback u put in these videos bro. Your videos blow 500k channels out of the water, no cap! your channel is so underated! Keep grinding 🙌🙌
Thanks, Mike. I appreciate you!
Thanks Fresh as always for the research 👍
Very good review. Def hard agree as I used to own IE 300s. They are definitely fantastic for music and serviceable for gaming but there are some things left to be desired when it comes to needing a competitive edge for sound. Senhessier one of the best headphone brands tho for sure
I liked the ie300 but yeah for gaming they suffer compared to these others - no soundstage and bad depth of field
Great review! I 100% agree about the stock ear tips. The stock silicone tips are terrible and the foam tips are good. Once I purchased the AZLA SednaEarFit Standard ear tips, they were game changer in regard to comfort, sound, and seal, adding up to the overall enjoyment of the IE600.
Excellent review as usual!
what a good review of the sennheiser I would like you to try and give your verdict of the shanling mg 600 if it is good for games, keep it up brother your reviews are like law for me xd you will get higher
You should review the p1 Max and the S12 soon. They both perform well with music listening, and are pretty cheap for planars. I would love to see how they perform in games!
Hi , i was waiting for a video about IE 600 for gaming since long time .
Thank you so much for the information.
Can you make compression video between IE 300 vs IE 600
Just highlights the difference . Can be from gamer perspective which is main use for most audience in this channel.
I was scared you might review these LOL - I got the kinda lava after your reco' and they were great then I bought the raptgo's on a whim for the planars - Raptgo is killing it for gaming with its imaging, soundstage, and detail - I'm tracking better than ever in Tarkov. Glad the ie600 didn't make the wallhack tier list ;)
Haha. The raptgo is insane tbh
Very informative review. I've heard that the Moondrop S8 have crazy imaging capabilities, I wonder how they would do for gaming.
Wanted to come back to this as I tried the Vulkan, Hook X, Oracle, Blessing2, Kinda Lava, Holocene, and S8 and the S8 are the ones I’m keeping. They are incredible honestly. Hoping Fresh reviews though next.
I would love to see you trying out LG OLED C1 to test the blur against top tier small screen gaming monitor like Viewsonic XG2431
Hello Fresh! Any next iem coming up? Would love to see your opinion on the shuoer s12, 7hz/crinacle Dioko(planar), Fiio Fh3 and Ikko oh10.
Also there is a interesting new overear called Neumann ndh30(not budget) if you are still interested in trying out overears.. As always top notch reviews, Cant wait for the next one! Greedings
Vouch the Dioko review
I strongly agree and i wish to see review for the shuoer s12 and Fiio Fh5s as well.
Hey Fresh, this is probably not the best place to ask this but I'm gonna give it ago, I'm pretty torn in what sound solution I'm going for, I'm looking at the HD560s or getting an IEM, I currently own DT990 Pro 250ohms for reference.
I do want to lose the handband however it seems to me that you have to spend a lot of money on an IEM to get equivalent quality levels to an over ear like a HD560s, I'm looking at the DUNU Falcon Pro's as they are within my budget how do they compare to something like the DT990/HD560s?
PS, It would be pretty cool if you had a website or something that compares IEM to headphones on a purely gaming wallhack level, EG Dunu Falcon Pro's are at HD560s level etc.
Nice review ty
I’m really interested to know if you now use the Dunu Vulkan’s more than your DT 900 Pro X for competitive gaming?
I currently do yea
Lmaoooo the white glove reviews, next level!!!
Haha
I will love for you to review the Moondrop Starfield, I’ve heard they are better suited for gaming than the Arias and would like to hear your opinion on them.
Not the headset I really wanted a review for, but it’s a recipe from you, so, 👍
hey @fresh reviews i have the HD 560S but i want some iems in the same price 150$ for FPS competitive, what do u recommend to me?
Hey how about qdc anole vx one of the most detailed iems or elysian diva? Maybe symphonium helios too?
Please do a review on the Penon Seriel. I considering buying this IEM due to my preferance to dynamic driver timbre. This iem is lacking review . Thanks
Will you check out the ATH-R70X for gaming? I've heard great things about their soundstage and imaging.
I have them. Good imaging. But not my go to. Not even over an IEM
Just a heads up, I own these for 3 months now. Left ear started to sound real low out of the blue and they are sent back for servicing
...
Can you test out the FiiO FH3. Would love to know what a competitive gamer thinks of them!
Yes please
Could you do one on the Shp9500s? That would be superb!
I'm curious on your opinion on FiiO ff3, hear they are good for gaming and are less than 100
when I saw the white glove I immediately knew the price is going to be insane...lol
Thanks for these. Do you actually have a tier list for IEM's? I play apex only and want to move on to IEM's but I dont want to lose the mic option and also dont want to spend more than 100$
check out the Wallhack IEM Tier List in the description
Usb mic for the win like a at 2020 most mics on inear cables are not so great at all.
HI :) What exact keyboard (alongside the keycaps and switches) are you using in this video?
It’s a wootitng 60
In a blade 60 case with pbt spark or neon keycaps
i see that hyte y60 in the background, super nice case
Will have a setup video soon!
Could you review the ifi Zen air DAC when you get the chance?
It seems like DD only IEMs just aren't the move for tac FPS. As a side note, I appreciate this series. I tried the Aria, Blessing 2, and Hook X and you're totally right about the Hook X being excellent in Valorant. I'm going to try the Vulkan, S8, and Kinda Lava next. I just want to find something that performs as well as the Hook X in game while also being great for music.
Hi, did you play with hrtf enable on valorant?
@@97andreaas yes!
Are the Hook X bad for music?
@@toitd5258 They sound fine tbh but not amazing.
@@ipressdatofu Fresh Reviews has said in comments he has HRTF disabled for all the test as well & does not like it in games.
And for both music & games from his reviews seems like the Kinda Lava is the go to for both just from watching here.
With just gamming being edged out bye the Vulkan but not as great but still good for music. The hardest part is being good at both. Hence why I think Fresh nails it here. Some have said the Hook X & the Blessing 2 are hard to fit in your ears as well if your ears are small in the ear canal.
Some have said they have had to use spin-fits for the Vulkan. I hope you can return the ones you do not like a lot of money to try them or test them all as well. Most say the Lava's fit well for most but there so pricey as well but great at both. I like both the Vulcans & lava but would want to lean more maybe towards the lava but that price lol is so much.
The fit is just what I have seen around youtube that others have talked about as well. Good luck I can't decide my self as well 🤣but do like watching these videos & might be a hard to change to inears from open back headphones. And I can hear my self breathing in most IEM's. Good luck on your choice as well.
Have you tried the Tin T2 pro or any FiiO iems?
please review 7hz salnotes zero too
Hey love your every mice and iems reviews. Just a small request, can you kindly cover more budget iems that are under 50 bucks!
I have more coming for sure!
@@FreshReviewsYT def would be interested in seeing what you think of the Tin T2, KzZs 10 pros or the Logitech IEMs all around $50
I used the Moondrop Chu, KZ Zex Pro Crn and the new Salnotes Zero Dynamic for PUBG, music and some general stuff.
Out of those three, pretty much only the 7Hz Salnotes Zero provide both decent soundstage, separation and verticality for PUBG and I'd choose them over most gaming headsets (or any Logitech, Razer, Steelseries, Roccat, Astro, ...) and I'd rate them just a tiny bit below my Sennheiser HD 560S and maybe a tiny bit above the HyperX Cloud (1st gen).
Keep in mind, I use an asus Xonar U5 AMP/DAC and a TX42C100 Type-C DAC for testing.
@@marijanovic191x7 thnx, have you tried the Dunu Titan S or TruthEar Crinacle Zero?
@@MayankJairaj onky those that I mentioned and the Brainwavz Omega. The other ones I've used, in-ear, weren't classified as IEM-s but just headphones that came with mobile phones, other devices or were a cheap local purchase.
What ear tips would you recommend for the Truthear x Crin?
Stock are fine
i'd love to hear your thoughts on 7hz Dioko.
Have you got the chance to try out the ie 900s at any point? Total dump of money but I'm curious if its a better in the areas that the 600 is lacking.
Never tried the 900
@@FreshReviewsYT I figured not, its price is so cooked anyways it’s not really worth considering.
Oh of curiosity why do people specifically buy iems for games?
Late reply, but actual pros usually use them during live events for better isolation to block out crowd noise.
Usually wear iems for game sound, and headphones over for anc / white noise.
Please help!
Subbed and liked!
My HD 800 s headphones just arrived. I’m just wearing them to see if I can wear them. The top part does generate too much pressure for me. I’m super sensitive to headphone weight and clamp pressure.
So I think I should just go with a really good IEM. I don’t mind spending a lot of money.
Are these IEMs good for counterstrike? I want to be able to hear footsteps. Do I need an amp? If so, which ones do you recommend?
You’ll be fine with the dx3 pro+ I’d recommend going for anything on my top 3 wall hack list in my most recent video
@@FreshReviewsYT seems like your top number 1 is the dunu Vulkan. I watched your videos on IEMs. Seems that the dunu vulkan is your number 1 but you mentioned you will be mainly using the oracle mkii for gaming now.
That’s why I’m a little confused.
I’m trying to get the best for Csgo. How would you say the IEM compare to the hd800s?
got recommendation for hearing csgo footsteps? Tried hyperx/logitech/hd 598 and dt990 pro.
still can't hear anything...maybe im just deaf.
pls help.
900 pro x
You should try out the final vr3000, according to some reviews they have great imaging and a big soundstage and they are only $80
I have. They’re doodoo
@@FreshReviewsYT well that's unfortunate, I think I'll just go with the truthear x crinacle zeros then. Thanks and keep up the good content
@@FreshReviewsYT 😂😂 seriously? Im buying the raptors next. Must be in for a treat because I thought the vr3000s were kinda impressive on ps5 - apex. If helped me win a lot of games.
@@FreshReviewsYT what exactly was bad about the vr3000s, because I see a lot of positive reviews
@@gripjuice2063 What was good about them is a better question. Absolutely nothing.
Hey fresh can you check out steelseries sonar? It claims to improve the imaging for supported games using preset eq’s. Maybe somebody experienced with audio like you can check it out?
It looks like it’s just an EQ. I don’t recommend using those types of things tbh
More important to find a good IEM / over the ear. The rest should come natural
The 7Hz timeless would be really interesting tho. A bit cheaper than the hook x, bit more musical. Really liking the reviews so far, keep up the good work
Would love to see how these 2 compare. I eye them as my end game IEM.
Hook x open back IEM timelessis sealed I have heard no one say anything about it's sound stage or imaging for gamming. My guess would be it would not be good for gamming the timeless better for just music. That is the hard part to be good at both. To me what makes this great is no one for the most part is doing IEM's just for gamming. With a touch of music notes - review. I use open backs headphones> No sure I could even make the jump with out them being open backs. Like I can hear my self breath in IEM's that is what makes the jump the hardest for me.
Any plans for a review of the 7hz salnotes zero?
It should be delivered today
@@FreshReviewsYT yayyyyy!!!!
I have heard that 7hz zero have good sound staging, let see how they perform in gaming.
@@FreshReviewsYT plz drop the review fast I can't wait! I'm stuck between 7hz Zero or the ThruthEar Zero
Sry for spamming
What is your #1 pick for gaming at the moment?
What did you think of the cable? I think it's pretty bad, too stiff and has microphonics (external noises travel through it). (I know in the unboxing you said you don't hate or love it.)
Agreed the stock eartips are awful, that seems to be a common consensus.
The first thing I’d replace is definitely the tips. I’d also absolutely replace the cable. IEM itself for music is great. But those two things I view as real annoyances haha
it's been a long time I tried IEM for gaming, is it better than something like hyperX headphone?
Yes
@@FreshReviewsYT thanks for your fast reply, your channel should have more subcribers, definitely good and valuable content with gears for gamers :)
Which IEMs would you recommend for valorant in the 150 and under range?
I’d try to snag the raptgo for a little more. But the truthear Crinacle zero should be great for just $50
@@FreshReviewsYT do you have any plans to try out the s12/z12 or tangzu Zeitan wu iems for gaming and music review? i know it must be exhausting to try and plan any kind of iem review though lol.
For gaming, hard V-shaped tuning isnt that good at producing detailed audio cues. I dont know where people got the idea that its good, it could be a placebo effect or the isolation from an IEM. If you want something good for gaming try finding IEMs that are Harman-neutral (Aria, Starfield, etc). SIDENOTE: The tuning for the IE series is NOT FOR EVERYONE. If youre accustomed to mainstream apple earbud tuning dont go for the IE. All thats said, IE600 is really good for general jamming.
do you use hrtf in valorant?
Nope. Not needed
Hi Fresh! Any chances of reviewing the Final Audio VR3000? Thanks, love your content!
He did. It sucks. The end

Fiio fh3 for gaming?
For gaming fiio fd 5 or 7
I pray the ie200 improves this cuz that 150 price for Sennheiser is quite enticing.
It doesn’t.
Aye what up fresh
yoooooooo
Your pic looks like the old school xbox 360 gamer pics haven't seen them in years good shit if not I'm just going senile lol
@@geraldgambler7276 lol you’re not insane, it’s from the good ol’ days :)
i have a hard time trying to find budget iems that fit my ears my ears are so small
try the dunu kima
Are the ie 100 or 200 better?
I don’t like the IE line for gaming
I have ie600 since i like to listen a lot of music. But having best players in apex using cheapest apple earbuds, it seems that it does not matter in apex, what audio you have. But i will look into getting some other gaming iems.
Of course it matters. The apple earbuds are superior to ie600s in apex and most games. There’s a difference between resolution and other competitive qualities. If you want both you can certainly spend more money. If you don’t care, then get apple earbuds. 🤷♀️
@@FreshReviewsYT I mean i agree with you but apex audio is not that good. But i will look into gettin better iems thanks to your amazing videos. I have dt 1990 pro but since my pc is so dam lound when gaming, i need iems.
So do you like theses for gaming what's the difference between theses and the xenns mangrid top bro I am looking between theses 2 now what ya think for fps games how would you compre the 2
You should just get the orchestra lite brother. It’s the best spot to start
@@FreshReviewsYT okay can you tell me what the difference between the orchestra lite vs the xenns mangrid in your opinion on the fps games you have played that would be super helpful brother just to hear from someone who has experienced both of them .
ps i am very close from getting the the kiwi they look amazing i just wanna see what the difference is you experienced with them both in fps games and how much difference is there like sound stage accuracy you know what i mean
@@jhtongamer3151 I answered that in another comment already. But my recommendation to you is the orchestra lite. Save the extra money because as you asked before, it’s not a 110% difference. They’re both close in gaming performance.
Can you tell me why the xenns mangrid tops are in your number one what's so much better so what was your experience with both of them :)
Can you try the shuoer s12
Just buy them (if you haven’t already) they’re great. Still the planar king under $200 imo
7hz zero?
❤️
Almost a rack for these IEMs jeez
what is this seinheiser you speak of?
That’s how I say it :) tomatoe tomato
@@FreshReviewsYT that is unacceptable. 👺
good video.
Please try tachjim darling
Nice video!!!!You save my money bro😂😂 I see the PUBG pro player using ie900 but it so expensive so i want to buy ie600 until I watch your video
Btw I want to buy inear for pubg
Could you recommend some inear for pubg to me!? Thank!
Good choice. I’d check out the raptgo hook x or Dunu kima depending on your budget. The vulkans and canon would be great also
@@FreshReviewsYT really really thank you bro
i will chose one to buy! btw if i have enough budget, Xenns also is NO.1 for pubg!?
optimum tech likes these for gaming
I’m pretty sure he uses the 300s he said he doesn’t plan to upgrade to the 600s cause he’s really satisfied
Word. Both the 300 and 600 are nowhere close to being on the wallhack tier list.
@@FreshReviewsYT damn man my friend put me on the iem rabbit whole got the p1 maxes kinda thinking of trying the hook x do those compete with the dt900 pro or even surpass
I will stick to my bose qc20😆
👀
Why is it so expensive?!?!????
The great thing about reviewing the high end IEMs, it goes to show price =\= performance. It’s a great way to evaluate the entire market and how budget IEMs compare
You should test the 7hz dioko
On the way&
£599.00 for some HI-RES AUDIO.
Yes sirrrrr. IEMs go for far more than that as well. Some people truly love the hobby :)
Where's your IE 900 review? Ok the IE 600 falls short for gaming, what about their flagship IE 900? Not an Apex, Valorant, or Overwatch player but definitely an EFT player where positional audio is paramount assuming their positional audio engine is working but that's another topic.
I don’t own the ie900, so no review.
Overrated ie 600 and ie 300
Nice Video..Aside of Valorant and Apex Legends what is shooting games you playing?Can I add you in Valorant my codename is qzoneih..What is most IEM Earphones Brand For All Gaming/Music/Watching Videos In Netflix & UA-cam please?
