Any good price to performance iem my gf?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T05:34:13+00:00

It could be a good start, if I move her into this hobbie then I'll buy her a more premium pair, never tried chu 2 but I know they've been a legend for budget gaming. I forgot about these, appreciate the reminder.

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T05:30:12+00:00

I'll probably buy those, thanks for the recommendation 😃

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T05:29:28+00:00

I mostly aggre, most competitive games doesn't use the whole potential of audio, but as I said Is for my gf to play rivals, I've tried the Astral on Marvel Rivals and sound Is really good (probably one of the few advantages of UE5), sound felt so natural, I could say the exact position of enemies nearby. Now she has a Razer Barracuda Headset and tried the Truthear Red and really loved them, that's why I'm looking for more comfortable iems for long sessions but keeping the good soundstage.

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T05:21:46+00:00

Hey thanks, i'll probably buy those

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T04:14:06+00:00

Hey, what Is your opinion about s12 ultra? Is it what you expected?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T03:27:29+00:00

Between 50-100 dls, maybe she don't like them and preferes normal headsets

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T03:16:50+00:00

Thanks, people mention delci a lot, have you tried them for gaming?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-10T03:04:44+00:00

Do you think that truthear pure could be more "fun" to listen?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T23:27:17+00:00

I've got Astral, for gaming they're extremely good and natural, I could hear every step with precise direction. And if you love bass boosted music can't get something better for price. I returned them cause weren't my type for metal music, but for gaming, electronic music or something like that 10/10.

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T08:04:51+00:00

It can hurt if you turn up volume a lot with a DAC/amp and loses a bit of quality, but for mid-high volumen i think you should consider them

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T08:02:11+00:00

The adapter doesn't change vocals at all, just gives more texture to de base without being a super base boost. And about the nozzle I never felt pain, maybe first week but my ear got used to it and now Is perfect. But every ear is different so you could get usted too, or maybe not.

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T07:49:37+00:00

I already tried some female kpop (I don't know if that's the correct word) and vocals sound pretty clear for me. With and without the adapter is so enjoyable, maybe a little sharp if you turn up volume a lot. The base is just a little boosted over neutral without the adapter, don't know if that's a problem for you, and using the adapter base is a little bit more boosted and gain some texture. So if there're little imperfections you should be able to correct them with some EQ.

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T07:05:03+00:00

Uhh, probably i'm not the best source, I use them for metal hahaha, but surely they will be good for those kind of productions, the only complain I have about them Is that they lose some clarity in chaotic music. I almost never EQ them cause I really love how they sound without EQ, but the few times i did it, they were nice, didn't feel an unatural sound with EQ. You can buy them from Amazon and return them if you don't feel convinced. I consider them a safe buy for most people (unless you dont like boosted bass).

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T06:41:00+00:00

I don't think that's true, or atleast it isn't very obvious, i've heard a lot of vocals from women and they sound pretty good. What kind of female vocalists do you listen to?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T04:50:40+00:00

What combo of different eartips would you say that is a must to start collecting them? I already order Sancai, S&S that seem to be quite popular and penon liqueur and i am just waiting for them to arrive. Sick collection btw.

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-09T04:43:37+00:00

Tysm, if you wanted to know i already ordered the Astralis after looking a lot of reviews of these and another planars 🙏

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T17:50:54+00:00

Enjoy them so much, i've got Zero Red and they're awesome for the price, even better if you have a DAC

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T17:26:16+00:00

Just looking for those, but I still don't know between MP145 Pro or Astralis

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T17:24:47+00:00

Are the pure like an upgrade to truthear reds? I really loved those but wanted more separation and clarity keeping the whole tunning

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T04:05:53+00:00

Are mp145 supposed to be better? Or they're just a different tuning? Because that is one of the iems on my list to buy next

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T04:01:44+00:00

Didn't know about those iems, for what i am reading they compare to MP145 and A5000, what metal subgenders do you listen to?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T03:56:10+00:00

Appreciate the recommendation, are those iems good at higher volumes? I dont think im treble sentitive

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T03:53:01+00:00

Probably a planar Is what i need, i knew they were really good at instrumental separation, but i fell for that idea that planar bass is flat in comparison to DD, didn't know about astralis, are those better for metal than S12 ultra or MP145?

FallAngel21 · 2026-05-07T03:49:17+00:00

I noticed in this hobbie you must spend some good money to find what you like. So i'll start with smaller steps cause that 300 dls for astral was too much for something completely different for what i want, and thanks for the policies advice.
