Fanmusic TRUTHEAR x Crinacle Zero Earphone Dual Dynamic Drivers in-Ear Earphone with 0.78 2Pin Cable Earbuds (Zero)

This is my first time ever buying and using a IEM for gaming and music listening and it just simply sounds great. Overall listening to music sounds fantastic and using IEMS for gaming is almost as good as using wallhacks. The IEMs do a good job at giving spatial awareness of where enemy footsteps are at in the game and listening for the directions of gunfire. It would be perfect if there was a usbc to 3.5mm DAC that came in the packaging.

Love these! Why do we even use headphones? I have $150 headphones that sound like a temu speaker compared to these. I like war thunder and cod and both are so much more immersive. Especially in the bass which might surprise you. Packaging was just kinda weird, had an anime girl on it and I just kinda think that the whole anime girl thing is creepy. Whatever tho great iems. Oh also they have this awesome little leather-esque pouch that protects them so the little jack doesn’t get screwed up. Had that on some earbuds before but I love this little case and also the braiding. 10/10 for form, function, and price too to be honest. Solid deal

These sound fantastic and honestly don't need any EQ'ing, they sound great as is. I bought these to use for vocal recording when I need as little bleed as possible into the mic. I tested last night vs my ATH-M50X headphones and while for most normal level vocal recordings the amount of bleed from headphones is negligible and won't at all be heard in a mix, when I do quieter vocals and need to crank the mic gain a bit more it is then noticeable. With the Zero's there's is essentially zero (no pun intended) bleed into the mic! They also will be handy for when I have gel in my hair and don't want to mess it up with over the ear headphones lol. Knocked a star off because the cable is just too dang short. Had to order a 2 meter replacement cable as I need more length and don't like the extra weight introduced using my 3.5mm extension cable. Too bad I can't seem to find a 3 meter length anywhere but 2m should do it. This is a very useful purchase for me and well worth it. Keep in mind, these are IEM's, perfect for recording and monitoring, but I would not use them for mixing purposes as they are pre-EQ'd for listening. You'd want something much flatter to mix with.

Headphones sound great. I mainly use them for listening to music lightly and gaming heavy. I did have an issue with the left iem but shenzehnaudio quickly shipped me a replacement. Overall great experience!

I would not have any other IEM's, I recommended these to alot of my friends. The highs and lows are amazing. Especially if you're playing Fps competitive games. Cs2, apex, marvel rivals etc you name it and these will always be amazing. Comfortable, long lasting. I have had no issue what so ever with them. Been using them for the past few months now. I used to use Logitech G903 headphones. And these are better! 10/10 would recommend for this price point.

I have been struggling getting my head wrapped around the Truthear Zero. Thankfully I finally found the one scenario that allows the Zero to be competitive and even superior to the Celest. Since I found where the Zero sounds its best I feel like I gave the Zero a fair shot. For me the Celest and Mele set the bar at $50. Having those as a reference ruined the Zero for me until I found out what makes the Zero work. Out of almost everything I own from dongle dacs to much bigger gear the Zero sounded just ok. Borderline terrible soundstage, an upper mid lower treble boost that can get fatiguing and a strange characteristic of sounding "small". At loud volumes that "small" sound diminishes. Unfortunately for me I can't handle the upper mid lower treble bump at that volume.There's not one area where I would want these over the Celest or Mele. Under every category those two beat the Zero. It is a noticeable downgrade and almost feels like switching between $50 iems and $17 KZ iems. Like a lot of those really cheap iems there's a laziness to the sound. It sucks a lot of the life out of music. The combination of all the faults makes it almost impossible to not think of the performance while listening to music. For 99% of the people interested in these I would recommend getting the Celest or Mele. Catch the T3+ on one of its many sales and get that. These require an unreasonable source to sound like they belong mentioned next to those options.The unexpected poor performance made me curious so I checked the impedance. The box says the Zero is roughly 10ohms but mine measure 48ohms. That isn't something I find unusually high but it's far from the stated impedance. It's definitely not something my old 789 amp couldn't handle well though. Outside of a slightly crisper sound with a touch more bass and texture not a single amp helped these become competitive. Everything would sound the same except cleaned up more on some gear over others. Up until this point everything I tried the Zero on had a low output impedance and sounded similar.I have an old Denon AVR-X3100W receiver so I tried the Zero in that as a last resort. Dozens of hours listening to the Zero without getting lost in a song once but now as soon as the music started playing through the Denon I was having an experience. Nothing was the same as what I previously heard. Both men and women vocals got a bit more body creating much more natural sounding vocals. The female vocals and that upper mid lower treble region sounds like it is now more balanced lacking any hint of fatigue. The soundstage has finally opened up to where I feel within the music and not trapped between my ears.The bass is another night and day difference. That "small" sound I mentioned previously is completely gone. It really improves the bass making it sound huge and powerful. The bass now has much more weight than it did. Unlike before you can now feel the intent of drum hits. The aggression of powerful strikes and nuances of light taps are much more apparent. You can really feel the power in the bass and only now do I finally appreciate the use of the one driver for a "subwoofer". The bass was detailed before and still is. With some songs it actually sounds more detailed. I would expect some give and take going from actual headphone amps to an old receiver but in this case it has been almost all gives. Being extremely picky I could argue the sub-bass might be too much for some songs that has an elevated sub-bass like Dance Now by JID. The rumble almost overwhelms, distracting you from everything else. Nothing gets jumbled and lost though. You're just forced to acknowledge the power in the bass. It's completely insane with anything Pop Smoke. Regardless of price I can't think of an iem I own that plays Pop Smoke better than the Denon/Zero combo does. The Celest also shines with that kind of music but I like the more natural treble of the Denon/Zero combo. Ignoring the sub-bass bump everything across the board improved. I hate to use the word "musical" but it's an infinitely more musical sound now.Through the Denon the Zero is a class leading iem. It trades blows with the very best of them in that $50-$100 range. The problem is that it's only true through my Denon. I'm sure the change is from the output impedance of that specific Denon receiver. Could you replicate the experience with your receiver or a resistor, I don't know. While I absolutely love the Zero through the Denon I don't love the Zero through anything even remotely portable. Personally I wouldn't recommend the Zero to anyone. The Celest and Mele sound arguably as good as the Denon/Zero combo except they do it everywhere. They are both more comfortable and don't require foams to be listenable. Without the Denon I had to use foams with The Zero. They reduced the fatigue and made it listenable for me. A certain reviewer rated these S class and I was feeling like that was a lie until the Denon discovery. They absolutely are with the right source but a C might be more truthful rating.There's no reason to buy the Zero. Skip it and buy the Celest, Mele, T3+, CCA CA16 or one of the many other options that sound great with anything. Only if you have a problem and like having gear that provides amazing experiences in specific scenarios should you consider the Zero. You have to be someone that appreciates gear that has it's own specific traits. Unlike iems that shine with certain types of music this one shines with a certain source. These aren't worth it unless you have that source. It's a shame because it is really really good with that Denon and barely average without that high impedance output. There's probably only a handful of people who have a similar source and willing to use it for an iem but if you are one of those people then you need to buy the Zero. It really is that good combined with something like my Denon. The drivers
