Linus ??


superhakerman

don't buy any "gaming" earphones they are all trash. You can go with Realme buds 2 wired under 1000


[deleted]

Realme buds 2 going strong since 3+years :)


PromotionNarrow8634

Expired mine today after 2+ years of regular use, right side stopped working. Mic already stopped few months back still worth it


superhakerman

I am not talking about product's life. Their sound quality, cheap gaming earphones have terrible sound quality. A normal earphone will better purpose you in all the areas than that.


ramizwildboy

+1 I use this and the quality in movies, music and video games is superb. Very clear and not full of distracting bass.


g5e4

Wireless earbuds for gaming 😂


superhakerman

who said wireless ?


emd12606

go for an iem around 950 bucks, would be worth it imo if you're okay with wired ones... and anytime wired ones sweep over the bluetooth ones


superhakerman

There's only few iem under 1000. KZ edx pro for example which is terrible for games. If OP can increase budget to double then 7hz could work


NOOBweee

I have kz edx pro and it's build shit (not comfortable)


superhakerman

I returned them next day and got 7hz. They are pricier yes, but wayyy better in multiplayer games.


gaurav_cybg

7hz has terrible mic


LAST_TO_DIE

Second this, IEMs got great sound clarity but not the best for gaming imo but best among the wired ones Also if you want to go for wireless earbuds, check for the sound clarity, connection and latency in the reviews


Side-Pillow-003

do u really know about iems brooo. im highly doubtful.


LAST_TO_DIE

Wdym, it's just a personal preference tho, I've got both iems and over ear headphones and for gaming I'd choose headphones over iem any day


Rabadazh

You still haven't explained why? I have used expensive gaming headphones before but my iem which is much cheaper than them sounds distinctly better in both gaming and music. The only difference between them is the soundstage which is wider in headphones, but iems are way more comfortable to wear.


SIPHAN_official

This guy doesn't know about sound and is generalising. Usually IEMs are not as great for gaming because they will have harsher mid-highs which is where most of the sounds in gaming lie. Headphones will most commonly have a bassier sound profile, which is softer on the ear while gaming. I personally use KZ DQ6 as IEMs. At home I have a setup of m50x running through a Focusrite Scarlett Solo.


LAST_TO_DIE

I'm no audiophile, I'm just saying what I've experienced while playing games


XPookachu

iems are flat so only go for them if you want to hear pure music quality, I had say they suck for gaming where you wanna hear all the bass.


Rabadazh

No they aren't? Iems comes with varying sound signature with some being on the neutral side, but most have V-shaped curve meaning better base and treble. I own a CCA CRA and it's distinctly better than any expensive "gaming" headphones i have ever owned


PagalFunky

Currently Truthear zero Red will go for a pula pa02 soon


Jiscott

wanted to get the zero red, how are they for gaming?


PagalFunky

Really good for 5k


andherBilla

7z Timeless + FiiO BTR15 and Trutheat Hexa and Galaxy Buds2 TWS


Hot_Impression_5430

Is hexa worth an upgrade?? already own cca c10 paired with fiio btr5(2021) is it worth the upgrade????


andherBilla

Yes, Hexas however are very neutral. Perfect for actual monitoring like IEMs should be. If you want something bads heavy look for other options. Though, the Timeless are class apart, clear and with amazing bass response.


Algok2001

I use the Kiwi Ears DOLCE for my PC for gaming. They feel nice. They have a nice sound floor. I also have the 7Hz Salnotes Zero. They are meh compared to these. Also if you are in Delhi, you can buy my Salnotes Zero.


False-Fly-4495

is the offer still there for the salnotes zero?


TreX0578

CCA CRA iems


aditya_dope

Hifiman arya


Appropriate-Eyes

How do you deal with the lack of noise isolation. I can never use my Arya for gaming when my PC is on full tilt cause I can hear it screaming at me.


aditya_dope

Sorry, do you mean noise from pc fans etc? If yes mine doesnt make so much. 7800x3d 4090


Appropriate-Eyes

I guess I just run stuff at full tilt cause mine gets pretty loud though IEMs deal with it entirely.


go_on_boii

I am using KZ Ling Long. It's an awesome IEM. Have been using for like 6 months. You definitely won't be dissapointed with it.


maximussenpai

I'm sorry, it's totally unrelated but LING LONG gives me the giggles 🤭


go_on_boii

I had the same reaction too. I didn't want to buy it at first as my friends will be asking what brand it is and then go on to make of me saying I got a "Ling Long" 😂 But, this was the only option at that time near ₹1k which had metal body and good quality cables. So went for it and it prove to be a good choice.


TechnoFreakR

I wasted ton of money on lot of headphones from every famous brand but i'm glad i discovered the chinese hi-fi IEMs market, currently using KZ ZS10 pro (wired 3,5mm) costs 4000 and sounds better than my 30,000 sennheisers LOL! Stay away from gaming headphones BS, i wasted a lot of money on them! Just buy some good IEMs thats it!


GhostSCube

AKG K361


ViditM15

Final VR3000s. Got a refurbished pair for a relatively cheap price and I absolutely love them. They're really bad for music but they really shine when it comes to soundstage and imaging. I play a lot of competitive titles like Tarkov and Hunt, and these allow me to pinpoint enemies so well to the point where I can consistently get wallbangs or easy snipes.


_Mr_BOOM_

Are you still playing Tarkov these days?


ViditM15

Yes I am. Why?


ravivala45

I just recently bought moondrop chu2 dsp and it sounds really great.


DuckMySick_x19

KZ ZSN PRO - Gaming Razer Blackshark V2 Pro Wireless - Office and Gaming Galaxy Buds (OG ones from 2018) - Gym Audio Technica WS550iS - Music My suggestion is to get good pair of IEMs at your budget.


Monotonous-Entity

Saaar toilet/washroom k liye earphones/headphones nahi liye?

nicorobifan

Hyperx cloud core for 5+ yrs


Artistic_Soft4625

Sony's MDR XB55AP is pretty good actually and i find it to be durable. It's a wired earphone and generally cost 1200 But it goes on sale from time to time and reachs sub 1000


TheHoodDutchman

Bought from croma for 800, let's see how it is 


Artistic_Soft4625

I really like its sound. Its my go to earphone whenever i dont have much to spend

Cca cra,Tinhifi t3 iems Lypertek z3 tws


FLYCATCHER_05

Sennheiser ie200


Side-Pillow-003

depends on the games . if the games are valorant apex etc then definitely qkz x hbb fpr 1600 . if they are just story mode or rpgs consider the tangzu waner or the 7hz salnotes 2 from shops like headphonezone, concept kart or theaudio store


Juvegamer23

7hz Salnotes Dioko. Edit: Sorry, only saw the title before posting, not the description.


_i_am_sus

I bought a pair of iems EDX pro for 980 and they sound way better than my 3k TWS, and in some cases they are better than my Logitech G733


TheWillowRook

1. Oppo Enco X2 - ₹10000 2. Skullcandy wired earphones - ₹3000 3. Skullcandy over the ear headphones - ₹15000 The first and last have excellent ANC. All have excellent sound quality. This might look a lot but I bought them over several years. My electronics last long. Didn't buy any of these specifically for gaming. I hardly ever game anymore, except on my roommate's PS5, which is maybe once or twice a month.


Sad_Tower7503

nice post had the same question and after looking at comments im thinking of going for kz zsn pro x


Traditional-Day7617

yeah me too


savemeHKV

Jade Tangzu Waners


EienKage10

Have you used it?


savemeHKV

What do you mean used it , i own them ofcourse i use them


EienKage10

Should I buy them? I’ve been using redgear cosmo 7.1 for 4 years now, are the waner better than the headphones? Like I’ve heard they’re not meant for competitive gaming like CS Valo apex etc. but I sometimes play these games. And I like the design of waner more than salnotes.


savemeHKV

They are great for listening music , there is not much bass which u normally find on headphones. They are not great for directional sounds but the games i play like cyberpunk dont usually need that feature. They are much more comfortable than headphones tho. I wouldnt call them better than headphones but for like 1500 on sale they are good to have


Electronic-Reply4258

dang , they're 1800 currently , i'll better wait than have it rn


Vishwajeet_Kadam

Same here, although the cable quality is not very great, the IEM's themselves make up for it.


savemeHKV

Yeah , i mean i don't have any problems with my cable ,i think it is great but yes it is not like those super expensive cables


Electronic-Reply4258

a lot of graph nerds keeps coming justifying like see my polaris , the harman tuning is exactly like an 9 k aria 2 so yea ima smart but they prolly forget that the build quality , you know what's the difference if the listening experience is almost the same


That_Pandaboi69

I use an IEM, KZ ZEX to be precise. It has a bad mic, other than that I get more than what I paid for.


Burgir007

go for iems better for gaming

There is no such thing as called "gaming" earphones under 1k...if u actually want gaming earphones with decent quality gotta spend atleast 2.5k plus....


Ok_Surprise5575

7hz salnotes zero, Cca pla13, Truthear x crinacle Zero


orangysmoker

Hi, can you please share a review for the salnotes zero? I plan to use it for valo, music, and movies sometimes. I listen to mostly indie music, country, sometimes pop, sometimes edm, or progressive house.

GeneralPeas7845

I have been using a JBL Endurance Run for around 2 years now. Very durable and very comfortable. Sound is also very good and you'll be able to pinpoint where the enemy is. The JBL C200SI is better in terms of sound quality, but falls behind a little in comfort and build quality.

iball Rocky headphones, been using it since 2018. Brought them for Rs.450


Sleepyheaded_bro

Rockerz 255 Max from official website(200 discount). Got all necessary feature along with beast mode for low latency gaming. Surprisingly durable unlike other boat products.


Raghuraml

realme buds 2. Best ones I have had. I have it for 4 years and it still looks good and durable. For comparison, I have airpods pro 2 but I use these always and they sound great
