I love the IEM choice you of your review. Finally a large channel to review the FiiO, Blon and Beyerdynamic IEMs. I feel like these do not get enough attention in the tech review community.
They are a big channel in only in name now, recently they are not getting a lot of reviews probably because of over saturation And that is a crying shame, these dudes have produced some of the best advice videos Audiophilia is the next big step for a pc enthusiast and only a few big names are getting into this hobby (bitwit with stellia and not many more, maybe tech source with vanatoo speakers) Crinacle needs to become big again!
Glad to see iems from non-gaming brands making the list. Other ones to check out that are also highly recommended: -Tin T3+ -Moondrop Aria -KZxCRN Zex Pro* -CCA CRA* Update: *KZ has had a recently discovered controversy regarding fake drives, the CRN being on of the models involved. They still sound good, but it's a shady practice at best, fraud at worst. take that into account if you are thinking about any of there IEMs
been using my Arias for a few months now - just replaced the tips with comply foam and a better moondrop cable. Highly recommend for FPS - esp for the price, it doesnt get much better. For single player games, I tend to use a DAC with speakers instead
Usually audio gear of non-gaming brand is better than gaming brand as some of these brand is a known audio brand. But of course stuff like keyboard of mouse, monitor, the gaming brand product is good.
Also been using the Arias for the last 7 months, amazing sound for $80. Replaced the stock tips with spinfits cp100 and stock cable as the stock cable is noisy. Only big problem is the coating of the iem falling apart after a few months of wear, ended up sanding it off but I actually think they look even better now tbh. May pick up a pair of Tinhifi T3+ in the near future.
IMO, I don't think ZSN is good for the gaming. Yes, Basshead might be pleasing but mid is too step back and highs is peaky. If you play Valorant the Cheap Sniper can bleed you eardrum if you don't careful. I cannot say it 100% because I'm not own ZSN OG but I own ZSN Pro X. With it same line up and graph comparison I saw, they sound are pretty close so I think I know how ZSN gonna sound like. Not saying that ZSN is not Good IEM, It's good but not rec for gaming
Having a fro I can’t use regular headphones without having a canyon groove in the middle of my hair lol, so made the move to IEMs a year or so ago. I’m happy to see a wider lineup of earbud options for gaming. The FiiO FH3 look awesome and will probably grab myself a pair. Great video. ✊🏽
Thanks for this I hate wearing bf headphones especially long hours of gaming, they hurt my ears, it gets hot sweaty, it feels heavy on my head and I feel restricted not to mention it messes up hair. I'm going earbuds all day for gaming.
Blon BL03 far better than 01 for a budget price to boot. Also, comes with the same weak cable, but it's super easy to replace them, and buy far superior ones.
The main issue I noticed with the IEMs I had access to is that they're very vulnerable to interference and there's no way to tell until you plug them into your own setup.
I have FiiO FH3 and it sounds awesome for everything and from anything! Great for listening music at work from my phone, or at nights from a DAC, when open backs are just too loud.
probably something like kz zs10 pro for 30euros would be superior in every way... these have 5 speakers per earpiece and the sound it self high fidelity
8:39 When I saw the colors of the Ukrainian flag 🇺🇦 I was curious 🧐 about the words, and found out that “Слава УкраïНi” means “Slava Ukraini” which is “Glory to Ukraine” I actually asked myself at the beginning of the video, What Dimitry thinks about the situation in Ukraine. 🇮🇱 ❤️ 🇺🇦 I wish you peace.
Damn, Fiio FH3 is awesome for music and for games. It's my favorite IEM and I'm listening to it right now. A lot of reviewers didn't like the thick sturdy cable, but I think it's great because it's not microphonic and mainly, IT DOESN'T HARDEN FROM SWEAT!!! I've had that set for a year and the cable is still as flexible as it was out of the box.
Can you review the ONE MORE QUAD DRIVER EARPHONES I planing to buy it and I heard very good reviews about it but I want to hear it from you and don't forget to burnin the ear phones
May I ask you... Would you recommend for extended hours gamer The Rog Centra l l core OR Razer Hammerhead USB-C ANC. Currently wearing over ear AudioTechnica's want to make the switch.
The soul Byrds are excellent, I used them constantly when I play Tarkov. I also find that they fit me really well and are quite comfortable (and I'm really sensitive when it comes to that sort of thing), but the fit is all rather subjective. The audio quality is excellent though, slightly forward without being too aggressive, sparkly but not overly so, and very energetic and fun. Overall they just sound " musical" if that's a word, they remind me of Yamaha EPH-100s or Triplefi-10s.
i came in here looking for headphones just for playing tarkov. my headset no longer does it for me. especially after seeing LVNDMARK switch to IEMs. I between Soul byrds or the FIos
Thanks for your awesome review! I think perhaps you would be interested in the Fiio FHE and some Moondrop IEM's for your next review. Keep up the IEM reviews for gaming!
Were all these tested off of a MB's 3.5mm jack(where applicable)? In other words, no DAC was used right? I would've loved to see you cover the Shure 215s with and without a DAC. Either way, great video. Thanks HC!
I can't stand any over the head/ear headphone, so this is the perfect video for me. I also appreciate the EFT tests as that is my main game at the moment. Thanks HWC
probably something like kz zs10 pro for 30euros would be superior in every way... these have 5 speakers per earpiece and the sound it self high fidelity
question with the fiio fh3 earbuds... i noticed that its an aux jack and you mentioned earlier in the video that it's nice to have the usb connector so you dont get bad motherboard audio... can you (or anyone else for the matter) explain a little bit deeper into this? I'm definitely interested in those earbuds but if my motherboard has trash audio then these are probably something i should avoid right?
@@czdot yeah agree, i own bl03 too. The fitting is horible but the sound is natural for 20$ish IEM. Would prefer that over CCA CRA if you are searching for natural vocal sounding. But overall i still choose CCA CRA for better fitting and more extended treble
I recently switched from a Logitech G Pro X to the Fiio FH3, picked up a 30$ desk mic and havent looked back. Playing tarkov i had much better direction audio, but even listening to music I noticed i like the FH3 a lot more. I am looking into getting something like the fiio KA1 just to get a little more out of them, but I’m very pleased with them.
If you're willing to spend the money, a lot of professional players use Bose QuietComfort 20s as their wired earbuds of choice especially at LANS. If I remember correctly they use these headphones to listen to the game and then put on the bigger headphones we usually see to help drown out the crowd sound
I actually want an open ear recommendations. All this in-ears are very uncomfortable after a while and to me felt very suffocating since I cant focus on my surroundings causing a sort of claustrophobia kind of feeling. There are few more IEMS like KZxCRN Zex Pros for example. but for me, open-ears is comfortable. Yes its not bassy and its there is multiple sound lost during travles but its not a major deal breaker to me. I could always increase the volume up. Currently daily driving the Apple Earpods as my gaming headset. Best for what it has to offer. Decent for gaming.
i’ve been intrigued at earbuds for gaming ever since optimum tech said he was using the sennheiser ie300 for gaming. Will have to purchase some (on amazon of course return with prime if i don’t like em)
Please guys, BA iems (FH3, Creative Trio, etc) are trash for gaming. Go into the firing range on apex, turn on the bots, and try moving and tracking the bots sound mentally. With BA iems, the lack of coherency throws everything off once you start moving. It "Sounds" like a sound is somewhere but once you move, that entire field is thrown off because your ears expecting the intensity of sound to change but it doesnt have the dynamics required. The Fiio FD3 is far better for gaming if you care about positional audio, while the FH3 is really cool if you want an innaccurate "out of your head" experience.
I was looking into earphones for gaming when i came across this video. My headsets are giving me headaches. Coincidentally, you were comparing the earphones with the game that i was looking them for, which is Escape from Tarkov. I am between the FiiO FH3 and the soul byrd. Does anyone have experience with them in Tarkov? Please, I want to use them for this wipe.
As a gamer and audiophile I highly recommend the fiio fd5. It has a wide holographic soundstage that rivals open back headphones with precise imaging that makes pin pointing things in game a breeze.
This video was just in time, was just looking for earbuds! And i did rewatch the old earbuds review because of that. Edit: forgot my takeaway for the video. I might go with FH3 and hope there is a replacement cable with an in-line mic.
Thank you. I mean it. Thank you so much for making this video. I have been looking into IEMs lately. So this video was greatly helpful. Btw, since u have reviewed fiio FH3, u might wanna also check out BQYEZ Spring 2.
If you enjoyed the BL01's from BLON, you should look into the BL05's - also another great offering from them at a slightly higher price point, but very much so worth every penny. Also, thanks for this video, actually going to try out the FiiO FH3 because of this. :)
Hey, I watched your vids and got myself a BL03. It has great sounds but I cannot gaming for over 2 hours with it because I'm not so used to in ear. Any recommendations for quality ones with the earbuds like the HyperX Cloud Earbuds (I found them very comfortable)?
I really think more gaming youtubers should look into Edifier products. But good job looking into fiio and the blons, there's also excellent TIN Hi-fi earphone options, and also 1more.
I was surprised that your top 3 choice was mine as well, i have a beyers dt 770 pro and while it is quite good for gaming, living in a tropical country can get those sweat accumulate fast, i'll switch to earbuds for now. :) thanks foe the review!
The one cheap alternative I haven't seen yet are the Apple Earpods. The 3.5mm connector version costs between 12-15 euros and are absolutely incredible for gaming. I've tried a lot of headphones and earphones, even the DT990 Pro, but they can't compare to the earpods when it comes to comfort and ability to locate footstep sounds.
>gaming earbuds >from a gaming brand they still dont learn something after many years with that boomy signature. FH3 is solid picks, if you want a recent release under $100 you can try Tripowin Olina, Dunu Titan S, Moondrop Aria, or Tin T3+
I have some questions regarding usb c type earphones. Why use the charging plug of the phone instead of the usual headphone jack? How do you even charge your phone while listening to music at the same time? How do you even connect it to your pc? It seems so unnecessary
Hello, please help me, I bought a Beyerdynamic soul byrd, the sound in them is excellent and everything works, BUT, my laptop does not see these headphones, or rather, it sees them, but does not see a microphone in them, and because of this I cannot be heard.
I really miss the bose wired headsets. They fit perfectly and allowed tge ears to breath, which means you can also hear noises in the house (good thing).
I was going to buh the Rog II citra core but im so disapointed their mixing suckss because they seem perfect in all aspects but the one that matters most. F
I'm not sure about your picks when the aria blessing2 dunu vulcan pro and the hook-x are available. Would love to see another tier list from you and please do not be afraid to put more expensive iems in here
Been using KZ ZSN Pro for 2+ years now. Added spinfits cp 100 eartips and they really sound great when Im playing Apex Legends. I can hear the directions of gunfire and footsteps very well as it seals my ear nicely. Stock mic is decent also . Though I prefer my Blons when listening to music.
Just thought I’d leave my review on two of these that I picked up a week ago. First pair I bought were the asus rog Cetra II core, i picked up the white ones and honestly really enjoyed them, the wings for me made a notable difference, the sound quality was pretty good and for the most part I experienced no issues up until a couple minutes prior to me writing this review unfortunately the left ear phone decided to not put out as much audio as it was just minutes before. I did take it out to check for any ear wax as they are white but yeah after trying to quickly rub off any ear wax the little bud came off, put it back on and then in my ear and the sound was just gone. Really sucks because I was enjoying this pair more, might try to do a replacement but I honestly might just try some other ones. The second ones I bought were the FiiO FH3’s, good sound quality and noise cancellation, definitely like them and my only issue with them is comfort, I cannot seam to pick the right buds that feel most comforting for me, on top of that the earphone in general just feels a bit uncomfortable and definitely after the first night of use I had plenty of pain in my ears. By now I’ve somewhat adjusted I’m still gonna give them time but honestly the cetra’s were working way better for me. Hope this helps someone at the end of the day this is just my experience with both these earphones.
@@lRoboToast I use it when I play on ps5 and from what my friend tells me I sound pretty quiet or couldn’t hear me at first, he was able to adjust his audio to where he’d hear me fine but yeah, otherwise I have no idea about mic quality but mic quality wasn’t really why I got them so yeah I don’t get enough use out of it.
I now use the Whizzer BS1 with CP100 Spinfits, since its "open back" and I take that as in, it sits nicely without feeling like earplugs (zero pressure) which is good for avoiding ear fatigue and it sounds awesome for gaming because of its smooth sound signature which is good for avoiding listening fatigue. Really light, great for very long uses, and it passed my "Sleeping with IEMs" test. Cable does have a bit of rubbing noise but you get used to it to the point you won't mind it.
@@mazon370 I don't have the Blon BL-01 but I'll definitely recommend it over the Apple earpods anytime. The mic quality is average. As good as your the average freebie earphones that comes with some phones basically. Which isn't bad.
I use in ear helmets and always after a while the right helmet almost always stops being heard as loud as the other one, does anyone have a solution, has it happened to you?
Just busted my Soul Byrd's. My 2nd pair, but the wire came apart. Had them for about 3 years and wore them quite a lot. But when they are done, the really are done. Everything came apart on about the same time.
i've never been so confused in my life, i mean, everyone is sharing all their options and no one seems to repeat names wtf

I'm surprized ZSN didn't make the list. Even with the recent dummy driver scandal, they still have a good line of solid budget IEMs for under $50
Probably because it'll be too similar to his previous list with the ZS10
yeah these are the GOATS in this price range. Only downside (fro some) is that they dont have a microphone. But they compete with 150$+ IEMs easily
Just buy the Etymotic ER2 it's miles better
@@LuisC7 For a bunch of people it's not. Mainly because of its flat signature and it's earplug fit.

Edit: forgot my takeaway for the video. I might go with FH3 and hope there is a replacement cable with an in-line mic.
Thanks for the video but I just wanna say that Dimitri's fade looks 👌🏻
if I use an audio splitter for my handsfree will volume control work ?
Thank you. I mean it. Thank you so much for making this video. I have been looking into IEMs lately. So this video was greatly helpful. Btw, since u have reviewed fiio FH3, u might wanna also check out BQYEZ Spring 2.
If you enjoyed the BL01's from BLON, you should look into the BL05's - also another great offering from them at a slightly higher price point, but very much so worth every penny. Also, thanks for this video, actually going to try out the FiiO FH3 because of this. :)
how you like the fiio?
yes are the fiio good?
Hey, I watched your vids and got myself a BL03. It has great sounds but I cannot gaming for over 2 hours with it because I'm not so used to in ear. Any recommendations for quality ones with the earbuds like the HyperX Cloud Earbuds (I found them very comfortable)?
Since you said the centras were very boomy did you try the eq software in armory crate? Just curious if that’ll make a difference
I'm impressed with the A7III video quality, still very good in 2022
Lmao I would've liked a more audiophile approach but the i found the comment on the ROG bass hilarious 😂
I really think more gaming youtubers should look into Edifier products. But good job looking into fiio and the blons, there's also excellent TIN Hi-fi earphone options, and also 1more.
This review is perfect for me because the only time I use headphones is during fps games especially escape from tarkov
How was the directional sound in FIIO FH3 for FPS shooting games.
I was surprised that your top 3 choice was mine as well, i have a beyers dt 770 pro and while it is quite good for gaming, living in a tropical country can get those sweat accumulate fast, i'll switch to earbuds for now. :) thanks foe the review!
Something I've been using for a while now - Final Audio E2000C , found it good for music, and for gaming!
I love that you were playing Escape from Tarkov. My old Arctis 7 pros are taking a crap and the directional audio is terrible so I need something new

You didn't test the microphone of FiiO FH3 :'(
FH3 havent mic
I have the fh3's and they are amazing... Most comfortable iems and they sound so good, haven't done any gaming on them yet but I will check it out
I see at 0:58 you had the Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X's. Would love to see your takes on a professional pair of headphones.
The one cheap alternative I haven't seen yet are the Apple Earpods. The 3.5mm connector version costs between 12-15 euros and are absolutely incredible for gaming. I've tried a lot of headphones and earphones, even the DT990 Pro, but they can't compare to the earpods when it comes to comfort and ability to locate footstep sounds.
Are they good on pc gaming?
@@user-bj9rj4cu3o That's what I use em for.
@@Drinkyoghurt can you use the mic while playing?
@@user-bj9rj4cu3o No idea, probably if you have a combined mic/headphone jack and use an adapter, but I'm using a standalone XLR mic.
@@Drinkyoghurt alr bro thx
i have blon-bl03 its great pair of iem product. i casually using it for gaming, music, and video conference
I use IEM's for gaming and honestly I prefer them over gaming headsets, incredible sound quality and comfort.
@Evan you know if these telegram accounts are legit or not. I got a message just like the one that account left you.
@@raullie they are bots spamming those. They are all spams so just ignore them
I heard alot of good things from the music production community about the BLON. So for sure I'm getting these
What’s that keyboard? Looks interesting
Headphone hair? At least you have hair. Lol
Maybe in the future try Bluetooth DACs and IEMs.
>gaming earbuds
>from a gaming brand
they still dont learn something after many years with that boomy signature.
FH3 is solid picks, if you want a recent release under $100 you can try Tripowin Olina, Dunu Titan S, Moondrop Aria, or Tin T3+
True. But you're wrong on the last one. The Etymotic ER2 destroys all of those
Must be a sharur follower
My favorite to game with are the moondrop blessings 2 dusk
BUY DUSK
Do u run any extra software while u using those earbuds? Software like boosting the sounds such as FXaudio or maybe Nvidia Broadcast.
I just got curious about this but is that his personal setup or a setup for videos?
What is the shelf/storage unit behind you in your videos? I’d love one like that
I have a pair of usb-c buds that I love. But you guys are correct. The cord is too short. Can you recommend an extender for it?
I have some questions regarding usb c type earphones. Why use the charging plug of the phone instead of the usual headphone jack? How do you even charge your phone while listening to music at the same time? How do you even connect it to your pc? It seems so unnecessary
LMAO HOW LUCKY I just finished your previous video and was about to buy the JBL quantums but this showed up in my recommended!
Hello, please help me, I bought a Beyerdynamic soul byrd, the sound in them is excellent and everything works, BUT, my laptop does not see these headphones, or rather, it sees them, but does not see a microphone in them, and because of this I cannot be heard.
I really miss the bose wired headsets. They fit perfectly and allowed tge ears to breath, which means you can also hear noises in the house (good thing).
Buy an open back if you miss hearing this in your house
I was going to buh the Rog II citra core but im so disapointed their mixing suckss because they seem perfect in all aspects but the one that matters most. F
Omg lol I came for the earbuds… I subbed because you’re playing tarkov ❤️❤️
I'm not sure about your picks when the aria blessing2 dunu vulcan pro and the hook-x are available. Would love to see another tier list from you and please do not be afraid to put more expensive iems in here
Been using KZ ZSN Pro for 2+ years now. Added spinfits cp 100 eartips and they really sound great when Im playing Apex Legends. I can hear the directions of gunfire and footsteps very well as it seals my ear nicely. Stock mic is decent also . Though I prefer my Blons when listening to music.
the L shape 3.5mm connector of ZSN PRO is bad to put finger around, just need a better mould, otherwise, perfect
Just thought I’d leave my review on two of these that I picked up a week ago. First pair I bought were the asus rog Cetra II core, i picked up the white ones and honestly really enjoyed them, the wings for me made a notable difference, the sound quality was pretty good and for the most part I experienced no issues up until a couple minutes prior to me writing this review unfortunately the left ear phone decided to not put out as much audio as it was just minutes before. I did take it out to check for any ear wax as they are white but yeah after trying to quickly rub off any ear wax the little bud came off, put it back on and then in my ear and the sound was just gone. Really sucks because I was enjoying this pair more, might try to do a replacement but I honestly might just try some other ones. The second ones I bought were the FiiO FH3’s, good sound quality and noise cancellation, definitely like them and my only issue with them is comfort, I cannot seam to pick the right buds that feel most comforting for me, on top of that the earphone in general just feels a bit uncomfortable and definitely after the first night of use I had plenty of pain in my ears. By now I’ve somewhat adjusted I’m still gonna give them time but honestly the cetra’s were working way better for me.
Hope this helps someone at the end of the day this is just my experience with both these earphones.
Thanks, going to try out the Centra II Core. Were you able to test the mic?
@@lRoboToast I use it when I play on ps5 and from what my friend tells me I sound pretty quiet or couldn’t hear me at first, he was able to adjust his audio to where he’d hear me fine but yeah, otherwise I have no idea about mic quality but mic quality wasn’t really why I got them so yeah I don’t get enough use out of it.
Hi hello its been a year what pair of earbuds are you using and do you still recommend them ;P
I admit none of them really convinced me... but I liked the video for the most important message!
I now use the Whizzer BS1 with CP100 Spinfits, since its "open back" and I take that as in, it sits nicely without feeling like earplugs (zero pressure) which is good for avoiding ear fatigue and it sounds awesome for gaming because of its smooth sound signature which is good for avoiding listening fatigue. Really light, great for very long uses, and it passed my "Sleeping with IEMs" test. Cable does have a bit of rubbing noise but you get used to it to the point you won't mind it.
would you prefer the whizzers over BLON BL-01 or normal apple earpods ?
especially the mic quality would be interesting to know
@@mazon370 I don't have the Blon BL-01 but I'll definitely recommend it over the Apple earpods anytime. The mic quality is average. As good as your the average freebie earphones that comes with some phones basically. Which isn't bad.
I use in ear helmets and always after a while the right helmet almost always stops being heard as loud as the other one, does anyone have a solution, has it happened to you?
I'm using the Sure SE215 and they are awesome!
whats the name of the split keyboard being used @ 3:02 ?
Just busted my Soul Byrd's. My 2nd pair, but the wire came apart. Had them for about 3 years and wore them quite a lot. But when they are done, the really are done. Everything came apart on about the same time.
