      So the main difference from the budget side to the mid tier is going to be resolution and overall sound quality. My top 3 compared to my top 1 budget pick is large enough for me to recommend the mid range. The canon 2 for instance is definitely superior all the way around as a product over the zero. Better separation depth perception and imaging. However, if you really don’t care about resolution, the zero is good enough in all categories to not spend the extra money. I would score each IEM in my top 3 picks higher in those categories though - resolution, depth perception, separation. The zero though can definitely be used well enough to not need to spend the extra money. For instance, if I was to give the zero a 7.5/10 for separation and 7.5/10 for depth perception, I believe the canon to pick that up to at least one full point higher. However, in terms of resolution even higher. Then there are other things again to pay attention to - the attack on the bass, shoutiness etc. I think all things considered you do not need to look past the zero for just gaming - but when you go to something like the canon 2 you’ll really appreciate the differences.

    @DankStir Рік тому +3

    Just bought these based on your review and I like them a lot. They perform better then my DT990 pros, however, with IEMS in general, I get a reverb when I talk. The best way I can describe it is its like I'm humming and my head vibrates when I talk. This makes it hard to hear what's playing through the IEMS at that moment. The DT990s are open back so I don't have that problem. I tried different eartips including the SpinFit W1 and that hasn't improved it at all. Do you know anyway around this issue?

    • @CumminsRam
      @CumminsRam 4 місяці тому

      Supposedly you can mix your mic input into the output so you hear yourself talking. The IEMs being closed and blocking your own voice apparently cause issues for some people. I think there are external devices for doing this since you don't want a delay on the mic audio that you're hearing.

    Just out of curiousity, if you prefer the more "controlled" bass response of the canon 2's, what keeps the xenns top at the highest rank of your tier list? I know you emphasized its a very close call between the two. just wondering if, for someone like myself who is looking for the best competitive edge, and where the extra ~120 for the xenns top isnt a big deal, was there a specific reason to choose to put the xenns at the top of the list? was it that slightly higher resolution and airiness you referred to that took the cake?

      If I understood correctly, the switches add bass in two stages when all the switches are in the upper position. Mild upping in bass for the 1st switch, a higher bass with the 2nd switch. The switches do not have any effect on the mids and tremble. At least that’s what people say.

    So is everyone pretty much running 1 down 2 up for gaming?
    Had a chance to play with these a bit yesterday. I own a dozen pairs of flagship headphones (HD800S, Beyer T1's, and many more) but only 2 IEM. I also have a dedicated theater room that is extremely high end, 5.4.4 atmos setup with 2 servo 12's and 2 custom built 15's that reach clear down to the 2hz (REW Calibrated and measured with Umik) frequency in a sound treated room. I have never had headphones that were as clear bass wise as these as least on some frequencies. I got into a The Finals bender so I didn't put them through the ringer but I did play a game on COD and the killstreak where you get a missile to come in, when that landed it was straight clear and pure low frequency to what I felt was perfection. This was called in from someone else, landed across the map. First time experiencing that on a headphone\IEM. When running highend speaker system, there is pressure and squeezing at lower frequency you don't experience otherwise. On super low frequency, you don't even hear it, you feel it. This is hard to do without boomy audio but these are not boomy at all. I'd need to run the frag throw scene from World War Z or the helicopter scene from Black Hawk Down but these seem pretty epic imo from initial testing.
    Honestly, the wallhack is so brutal with these, I had Windows Audio Effects on I actually had to turn it off. It may be doing a type of loudness equalization, but I am not sure. I'll play around a bit more and experiment, but this is not an exaggeration, I was prefiring places dudes were so far away from me I had no business hearing them. It was getting me killed. Santa Border Crossing, where the tunnel is from the parked cars, I was hearing people on the far side of that as if they were right next to me. That was a first with headphones I have ever experienced. I dropped a Mini Royale Video you can see I clearly know where these dudes all are. You can see me snapping around looking but you won't hear it in the video. Looking forward to testing Rainbow Six Siege as I know that audio like the back of my hand and some others!
