It is interesting to see that not only is the product talked about, but that it will be purchased with other iems in the same price range. A very detailed description. Great video
So they basically improved the overall amazing hola by making it more brighter and taking good quality of all the iem in the price segment like mids like warner which is great and making it more detail etc…. Overall a great review and a new king… this price segment is so competitive and it always surprises me🔥
Since both Truthear Gate and Tangzu Wan'er seem to be vocal-focussed, which one would you recommend for someone who listens to a lot of ghazals and tracks with natural, acoustic instruments?
Definitely getting this over Tangzu Wan'er Studio Edition 😁 I thought it would take longer time for me to decide but after (even while) watching this review, I realized that this is really for me. I like to focus more on details, natural sound, good soundstage and imaging, etc. I'm not a huge gamer, I only game from time to time but I'm a huge fan of indie films especially with unique sound designs. And for music, I tend to listen to unique sounds like Radiohead and their side projects, Björk, some experimental artists, some rock, grunge, math rock, instrumentals, etc. This might be the one for me!
I went to buy one of this in IEM store....didnt get what I want but I met him...first youtuber to meet in person from Pune...Now I Have alot of information watching all this video's...Thanks alot 🙏😊 Can't wait for the next Videos
Hi, im starting my hobby I’ve never tried any iem’s before and im going to start now, my budget is 2k can you please suggest me any good iem, i prefer bass not not too much and i like to hear the vocals clearer as well, thanks!!
Get 7Hz zero 2 it will give you a good balance of sound with sweet bass. That way you will not find anything lacking and you will understand IEMs while enjoying it. Hope this helps.
I am confused between getting this and kz zsn pro 2..this is going to be my very first iem..i listen to rock and pop a lot..i game as well..i am open to other suggestions as well..my budget is 2000
Get 7Hz zero 2 if you want to keep bass same as KZ. Otherwise Truthear gate is a better option since it sound good in all genders plus gaming is good as well
Felt like a MKBHD Intro, so clean with it. So this the new gaming budget king huh ! When i compared the graphs between hola, gate and waner i noticed they reduced to bass on the gate to focus on mids and it aligned with waner. Its so good to feel validated by you having the same thoughts😊 But a question which has a more cleaner and bright bass response? waner or the gate ?

Haha, I will add it in Simgot videos. Was avoiding this time in all videos, so that it's not misguiding in future. Because even after it's closed video will be live.
I want to get an iem under 10k. I listen to indie music, pop and hip hop and i play bgmi so i want to easily locate footsteps. I had gone through etymotic, simgot ea500lm, hexa but i didn't go for em6l because the build looks cheap. Please recommend me Im currently having oppo enco x2 but the imaging is not good so i am not able to get whether the enemies are coming from which side.
Nothing better than EM6L in this price range for your usage. You can check my review on Simgot Guide And individual review will be live today. Build is not bad. It’s just in comparison it lacks a bit. If you want another recommendation try Aria 2 for slightly less OR Truthear Nova for slightly more: both will fit your description

Starting my IEM journey and very confused between 7hz salnotes zero type c and these. I listen to hip-hop and classical rock and use it for gaming also. Tight on budget so can't invest in dac rn. Which one would you suggest?
How does the technicalities compare to the original 7hz0 Ik both are $20 usd iems so one shouldn't expect incredible tech performance from either but still im curious
I was thinking about getting the gate, have used the 7hz0 for a while and now it has some problems unfortunately Firstly the cable is kinda damaged and Secondly the right side has driver flex, I can hear a click sound clearly while putting it in/pulling my ear/pulling it out, dosen't affect sound though more of an annoying thing
Hello Sir, my 1more triple drivers gave up and i was looking for the 1more quads but seems they are not available in india anymore.. could you plz suggest something with the same sound signature as the triples or quads
Assuming same budget as that of triple driver, you want something with elevated bass and relaxed warm signature (bass head iem) You can check 7Hz legato it’s very close to 1 more triple driver. Bassy IEM
@@treblewellxtended thanks i 'll check them out..after seeing so many good reviews i was inclined towards the tinhifi t3 plus or even the IKKO - OH10 Obsidian
@@itsme_notbatman Ikko's availability is again a issue, OH10s is more inclined towards triple driver. T3+ is slightly better balanced than triple driver. If you are considering T3+, Do consider Tangzu Fudu as well
Is this review based on stock tips? If not please add notes on stock tips too because as anyone buying their first 19$ cheap iems don't have access to 9$ eartips. This ruin the experience and expectations.
Yes, all my reviews are based on stock accessories. Since most people stick with stock ones. I never used any other tip for review, if I do i mention. The tip suggestion was only for those who wants to try, actual sound impressions are on stock tips.
Yes, more open and balanced warmth. Gun shots and explosion sound more clear and better. Imaging is precise as well, so footsteps are directional and good
Hey How are u. First thing I loved your review.Tell me one thing which one is good for Hans Zimmer OST,A.R Rahman music.And I love sound which gives clearity if i need bass,treble its there.And my budget around 3000 and I use sony nw-a55 mp3 player.
Thank you. Sound demo is not very practical, since It will first change with mic signature Then youtube will compress So ultimately you will not have the authenticity.

@@BalaMurugan-sx6kh I would say give Tangzu Wan'er some time, like a month or two atleast and enjoy it's sound. Otherwise you will go into iem buying spree and will not be able to enjoy music.

@@treblewellxtended wow thanks for the quick reply. Honestly it's so difficult to pick budget iems because there are so many options out there and every model I find has that one downside that keeps me away from it, like the cable of wan'ers. The rabbit hole goes deep.

@@prashantthombare2328 Neutral sound is considered where your mids are clear, Bass is not much just apt to support the music and treble hav air and details. Some target that are associated with it are IEF neutral, Ety Neutral etc. so generally in IEMs which follow this target with slightly elevated bass is neutral. and with a bit more colourful sound but that maintain the overall open signature is balanced.

@@treblewellxtended Previously, I was using Sony XB510AS earphones. I felt the Reds sounded very similar to those, even with a DAC. I used Abigail pro DAC.
I'm thinking of returning the Reds and getting IEMs under 2000.
Wanted to see white version I don't like that "Gate" text on black version 😭
Haha, Truthear sent black one. Maybe white one for giveaway soon 🤞

I wanna buy an iem under rs2000. I'll use it for fps gaming like CS, R6 and sometimes movies only. Can you please suggest me which iem should I pick?
Get Truthear Gate, it's best for gaming and all rounder usage. It's perfectly neutral with an added alight warmth
Please help me
I'm still confused, tangzu or truthear gate , I'm student so watching lectures for long hours in 2x - 3x speed I'm Indian so i loves Indian classical music, I like every instrument and voice detailing and while watching movies I wants to clearly hear actor voice and dialogues ( because my English and understanding of accent is week 😅 )
Replied on your comment on Tangzu Wan’er video
You forgot to add the giveaway promo? Or it's just me got used with that promo in your videos regularly 😅🙌
Haha, I will add it in Simgot videos.
Was avoiding this time in all videos, so that it's not misguiding in future. Because even after it's closed video will be live.
great video
Thank you
I hope you put a buying link in a description.
I deliberately do not do that, since I do not do any affiliate work and want audience to have the freedom to choose.
should i buy MOONDROP - DAWN PRO or SHANLING - UA1 PLUS amp/dac for truth ear zero red and for future iems
Dawn Pro
With that you will get 4.4 Bal as well for future proof DAC
@@treblewellxtended thank you
I want to get an iem under 10k. I listen to indie music, pop and hip hop and i play bgmi so i want to easily locate footsteps. I had gone through etymotic, simgot ea500lm, hexa but i didn't go for em6l because the build looks cheap. Please recommend me
Im currently having oppo enco x2 but the imaging is not good so i am not able to get whether the enemies are coming from which side.
Nothing better than EM6L in this price range for your usage.
You can check my review on Simgot Guide
And individual review will be live today.
Build is not bad. It’s just in comparison it lacks a bit.
If you want another recommendation try Aria 2 for slightly less
OR
Truthear Nova for slightly more: both will fit your description
Im confused between gate and chu 2 i REALLY like the asthetics of chu 2 but i also want the gate type of sound which one should i pick it'll be my first so im little hesitant to pick between em HELP ME OUT GUYS,,!!!!!
Edit: i mostly listen to hiphop ,pop, edm,sometimes bollywood
I kinda lean more towards melodic rap part of the spectrum
But also listen to hardcore stuff lil bit
Like SM,rawal,raftaar,krsna n others
Get Gate, always pick Sound. If gate is your type of sound just go for it, and it's amazingly balanced IEM for budget category.
Basically i already have flac song s to listen do you suggest to buy DAC For the truthear gate? Or can it normally transmit hi-res songs through 3.5mm jack? Im new to the iem field thats why im asking
Yes you can get it. DAC will help you decode high res from those FLAC files.
You would be needing a Player as well like UAPP or Hiby Music.
Poweramp will be okay na?

FINALLY THE BUDGET IEM
Many more to come 🙌🏻
I like this your channel
Glad you liked it
How does the technicalities compare to the original 7hz0
Ik both are $20 usd iems so one shouldn't expect incredible tech performance from either but still im curious
I was thinking about getting the gate,
have used the 7hz0 for a while and now it has some problems unfortunately
Firstly the cable is kinda damaged and
Secondly the right side has driver flex, I can hear a click sound clearly while putting it in/pulling my ear/pulling it out, dosen't affect sound though more of an annoying thing
Technicalities are same as zero, nothing awe worthy. Same as all IEM in this budget.
They are very similar to 7hz zero slightly more open by a nickel.
QC is a issue, IEM needs a lot of care.
But gate's cable is solid
@@treblewellxtended i see thanks ! Might pick up the Gate then after all, love the cable's looks and tuning looks similar to the 7hz Zero which I love
How does kz zsn pro 2 compare in budget IEMs?
I have not tried KZ ZSN Pro 2 yet.
I've been curious is there a difference between chu II dsp and Analoge ? I used both but not interchangeably
Yes, both have different tuning. Chu 2 is V shape and DSP is tuned like Zero RED. More in line with adjusted Harman
@@treblewellxtended I've been wondering how I can apply another iem's tunning, how can I apply analoge tunning to the dsp one
@@sohaeb4055 with Moondrop link 2.0 app you can EQ.
If using 3.5 mm, use wavelet
Between headphonezonexfiiojd1 and truthear gate which one should I prefer, please suggest me one cause it's going to be my first iem.
Go for Truthear Gate, if you like neutral sound.
If you want some bass get Moondrop Chu 2.
Avoid JD1, not a very good iem.
@@treblewellxtended thank you so much😊
Hello Sir, my 1more triple drivers gave up and i was looking for the 1more quads but seems they are not available in india anymore.. could you plz suggest something with the same sound signature as the triples or quads
Assuming same budget as that of triple driver, you want something with elevated bass and relaxed warm signature (bass head iem)
You can check 7Hz legato it’s very close to 1 more triple driver. Bassy IEM
@@treblewellxtended thanks i 'll check them out..after seeing so many good reviews i was inclined towards the tinhifi t3 plus or even the IKKO - OH10 Obsidian
@@itsme_notbatman Ikko's availability is again a issue, OH10s is more inclined towards triple driver.
T3+ is slightly better balanced than triple driver.

Truthear Gate.

@@treblewellxtended is it better than chu 2 in terms of clarity and details without fatigue because tanzu feels me fatigue after sometime
@@amitshaw0702 yes it is better.
Is this review based on stock tips?
If not please add notes on stock tips too because as anyone buying their first 19$ cheap iems don't have access to 9$ eartips. This ruin the experience and expectations.
Yes, all my reviews are based on stock accessories. Since most people stick with stock ones.
I never used any other tip for review, if I do i mention.

Yes, more open and balanced warmth. Gun shots and explosion sound more clear and better. Imaging is precise as well, so footsteps are directional and good
Hey How are u. First thing I loved your review.Tell me one thing which one is good for Hans Zimmer OST,A.R Rahman music.And I love sound which gives clearity if i need bass,treble its there.And my budget around 3000 and I use sony nw-a55 mp3 player.

Truthear Gate would be best for you, it has the most clarity and balance among frequencies.
Now really confused because headphone zone suggested chu II.But I am also thinking to purchase gate. @@treblewellxtended
Good explaining but i think it is better to provide some sample sounds or music while explaining each segment like bass, treble, mids..

Sound demo is not very practical, since
It will first change with mic signature
Then youtube will compress
So ultimately you will not have the authenticity.

Portable: Fiio KA13 and Dawn Pro
Budget: Apple dongle or Moondrop Click mostly.

Sir im final choosing waner and kz zsn pro 2 and gate which one one is best sir my audio preference only wider soundstage airy music like ambient and little rumble bass, can you suggested me one sir😅 thank you for your video
Thank you, appreciate it.
If you want more bass: none of them are good, try 7hz zero 2
If you want balance of all, go for either Wan'er or gate both are amazing. I like gate more.
Avoid KZ, it's harsh.
@@treblewellxtended bro thank you so much i order wanar and how amazing sound is this 🥳, i love this soundstage, never hear anything before like that, but bass is average, but fully satisfied, my next iem maybe hexa or titan s or any other 6-8k Price range?
@@BalaMurugan-sx6kh I would say give Tangzu Wan'er some time, like a month or two atleast and enjoy it's sound. Otherwise you will go into iem buying spree and will not be able to enjoy music.
Then go for 6-8k category.
In that period if you find bass lacking even after 2 months which will not be the case most probably, then avoid these. Otherwise they are good. Hexa is awesome.

Hi, are these ones or tangzu wan'er better for lofi/jazz/nujabes-like music?
Both are fantastic, however, i found mids on Gate to be slightly better for instrumentals
@@treblewellxtended wow thanks for the quick reply. Honestly it's so difficult to pick budget iems because there are so many options out there and every model I find has that one downside that keeps me away from it, like the cable of wan'ers. The rabbit hole goes deep.
@@mejxe that’s true, but it’s always a good idea to start with one having best gut feeling and enjoy music, otherwise decision paralysis ruins everything
@@treblewellxtended great point, so I guess I'll go with the gates, they will be my first iems so they'll probably be fine either way. Thanks for the help!
@@treblewellxtended well so I went deeper down the rabbit hole and I'm considering splurging a little more. Have you tried truthear project reds perhaps? I've heard they are pretty good natural sounding ones, but is the difference between them and gates for example really that big?

@@prashantthombare2328 Neutral sound is considered where your mids are clear, Bass is not much just apt to support the music and treble hav air and details.
