Nice. I’ve got a pair of those but it’s so hard for me to bust out $20 IEMs when I have a pair of $450 over the ear headphones! I might have to try ‘em out now though!
hey thanks for honest review, by the way what dac did you use for the zero 1, my zeros only sound left/right sounds for directional sounds. What dac to use for the zero 1 ?
May I ask how are your pair of 7hz Salnotes zero after months of use, do they still perform as good as the day you bought them? I'm looking to buy a pair for myself but I am hesitant whether if this iem has a decent durability or it just breaks easily. I hope u answer back hehe thank you in advance!
Hello I am very sorry for the late reply for some reason I am not getting notifications but I been using the Salnotes Zero for 8 months every single day and its good as new. I recently stopped using it because I prefer the KZ PR2 for gaming now.
@@khensationalReviews Great review! I am now leaning to 7hz salnotes zero but you mention the KZ PR2. I can stretch my budget to KZ PR2, is this the one with HBB collab? How do you compare it to the salnotes zero? Need your opinions, I mainly play valorant and CS2 atm. Thank yoU!
did u buy the version with the mic or not? if not, how do you communicate with your teammate, do u use another external microphone? I am considering buying this too
I have the one with no mic, I do have a dynamic microphone. I recommend just getting a fifine mic from amazon for like $40 it even comes with a boom arm.
hey im a rainbow six player, so i bought 7hz zero about an year ago . superb quality and footsteps, but now left earphone is going a bit quiter. should i buy another pair or would u suggest some other iem with wallhacks type audio. PLEASE IN THE SAME PRICE RANGE THO
You can probably try using the warranty and get a replacement. If not then you can buy a new one if it works very well for you. I personally havent tried much set in this price range recently.
Bro im torn between some IEMs .. reddit says the OG 7hz zero have imaging problem (disntance, not direction)... some others I'm looking at are TE Crincle zero Blue , salnotes zero 2 , truthear gate. I was using moondrop chu for a year and they broke yesterday so I need an upgrade.. a little bit of sparkle maybe.. but imaging and fps performance is more important
Its 3.5mm but with the apple dongle dac it becomes usb c. I did have an alternative for the apple dongle on my latest upload. That one becomes usb c to usb A if that is an issue
@@khensationalReviews thanks for the tip dude. I literally have no idea what's the difference and from reading every chat you've responded to, I've added the following in the basket: - 7hz salnotes zero (with mic) - cx31993 Mindful of the suggestion, is the difference between zero 2 vs zero noticeable? I'm bit fed up as I've been using this particular IEM for 2-3 years. It's budget but so good - it recently gave up on me and I went and got another one, same model but for whatever reason, directional (or rather distance) doesn't sound too well and I'm just trying to get it fixed.. And bump into this video, thank you.
Sorry for the late reply. Difference between the Zero and Zero 2 is the tuning. The Zero 2 has more low end and smoother top end. I did a review on the Zero 2 actually and It's fine for comp FPS. Although some rare situations when it's extremely chaotic some audio cues do get masked by the bass but most of the time you're perfectly fine.
its personal preference at the end of the day. Id still take the Zero 2 over the Zero 1 just for the overall experience. I find the Zero 1s to be boring.
I just got one and I tried it on DM and couldnt tell which direction people are coming from lol. did you plug this in straight from the motherboard? cuz I did and maybe thats the problem
The IEM has to go in the right orientation. The cable has R and L labeling on it and so is the IEMs. Perhaps double check to see if its plugged properly
bro can you please give me honest review, this IEM 7hz Salnotes zero OR Takstar Pro 82? Which one is more accurate on footsteps? I have a Takstar Pro 82 and im Planning to buy 7hz Salnotes zero..
Depends on the source. With an apple dongle or CX Pro probably 35/30 respectively. If I'm using my Fiio NewK3 DAC since I have a volume knob on my DAC I just put windows at 100% Volume and control the volume through my DAC so for me about 3 oclock.
The Tin T2 isn't tuned as well as these and I can't pinpoint enemy locations as precisely as with the Salnotes Zero. With the Tin T2 I find everything to be so intimate.
@@Vidhu.1 Moondrop chu 2 now, waiting for it to arrive on my country to buy it. Glad I saw the moondrop chu 2 before I fully decided and buy the 7hz lol.
Just search Conexant CX31993 USB C to 3.5mm. Also this video is a year old if you havent purchased the IEM. You can get the Simgot EW200 instead with the Conexant. I'm uploading my review on those IEM rn

Its a similar situation as the other person . He said he fixed it by buying a cheap dac like an apple dongle or a cx31993
@@jonathn8758 would a $10 DAC like cx31993 be enough to get full potential of directional sound for the zero 1 ?

If you're not sensitive to treble the KZ ZS10 Pro 2 is great. EPZ Q1 Pro, Simgot EW200 as well.
Hi, do you use any dedicated Equalizer for the salnotes 7hz zero? If yes, please do reply.
Thanks!
No I do not EQ any of my IEMs. I been thinking about EQing my MP145 though. I used to use Sonar
wait so is the 7hz zero a 3.5mm audio jack or usbc? (the one you're using with the dac)
Its 3.5mm but with the apple dongle dac it becomes usb c. I did have an alternative for the apple dongle on my latest upload. That one becomes usb c to usb A if that is an issue

Can i plug this into my iphone using the 3.5mm to lightning and play mobile games? will i hear footsteps clearly in games like pubg mobile?
should be able to
Is this best for mobile gaming like Pubg mobile? Will i able to point the accurate footsteps's sound?
Best under $25 imo.
yo which is better for valo 7hz salanotes zero (or) 7hz salanotes zero 2 (or) Thruthhear crinicale zero
Between those Zero 2 or TruthEar Zero is fine. Id like to throw in the Simgot EW200 in the list.
just a concern I have, do you just plug it on ur motherboard/pc case or it will be better if I have a soundcard?
I plug this in my $10 apple dac dongle usb-c to 3.5mm

Do you have windows sonic for headphones on or off?
I don't have that. Any sort of audio enhancement should be set to off.
bro can you please give me honest review, this IEM 7hz Salnotes zero OR Takstar Pro 82?
Which one is more accurate on footsteps? I have a Takstar Pro 82 and im Planning to buy 7hz Salnotes zero..
Is Takstar Pro 82 not good for you? Its more accurate and more soundstage than Zero V1. Do you have a DAC as well
I just got the same iems, what windows volume do you recommend for this iems?
Depends on the source. With an apple dongle or CX Pro probably 35/30 respectively. If I'm using my Fiio NewK3 DAC since I have a volume knob on my DAC I just put windows at 100% Volume and control the volume through my DAC so for me about 3 oclock.
Will Salnotes Zero without DAC be good for Valorant?
Depending on the source. I really recommend pairing it with a $10 apple or CX Pro dongle at least
With Asus b550-a mother board, will this be okay??
Woah nice imaging.
how does this fair against tinhifi t2
The Tin T2 isn't tuned as well as these and I can't pinpoint enemy locations as precisely as with the Salnotes Zero. With the Tin T2 I find everything to be so intimate.
