Lmao, same here, tho i already forgotten how BL-03 sounded like but it was my Most favorite sounding IEM, the bass were perfect to me i still missed it, Zero 2 probably is better than BL-03

My favorite cheap IEM of the ones I've owned was the tin T3. I liked them more than the T2 as they were just more fun i.e. V shaped. I like these for the same reason.

Right now waiting on these to arrive but my king of cheap is the moondrop chu 2. Wild upgrade.

How was it?

Im enjoying the kiwi cadenza rn

I have the Crin Reds and the Moondrop Blessing 3s and the Reds are in my ears more that the Blessings

Long awaited 🫶

I still love my Moondrop Quarks just because I have qudelix 5k and always EQ, and I like that tiny tiny form factor. But I'm tempted to buy this set........

my fave currently is the ziigaat nuo its pretty much exactly the t3+ which is my fave set i own. pretty sure its the same LCP driver, same price as these that or the original 7hz zero

You got me started with my first IEM years ago (2?) - with the Tin T2. Since then have gone through a dozen or more lower-end units. However, these are on order and hope to get some time with them. Unbelievable progress in the Chi-Fi world. $20 IEM market is nuts. QKXxHBB is quite good but heavy (metal shell). ChuII a top cheapy. JoJo are ok - but damn cannot fit them right to my ears due to the angle of the tips. I really wanted to like them. Linsoul has a Christmas thing going now (mystery box A).

I bought the OG Zero a while back and love them. Unbelievable for $18 that I paid. Recently bought the Zero 2 and Ziigaat Nuo and they both are great for $20, albeit a different sound signature. Unbelievable how cheap these iems are for its performance.

@@MothMales Like the fit and sound of the Nuo with small amounts of eq. Prefer the og Zero over the Zero 2 cause of the vocals. The Zero’s are easy to listen to, whereas the Nuo, when using eq, can have a slight hit of excessive highs. But it’s comfortable to me, I like it.

So far my favorite cheapest iem would be the Moondrop chu 2 for like 18:99, they are really solid for the price!

Fave cheap set fills a niche, it's the Quarks DSP!

I just bought these and was a bit let down by the mids and treble and detail on the Zero:2s. I returned them. I own the KZ ZS10 Pros, and they sound far superior to the Crinacles, I hate to say it. Also own the ZSTs and they also sound superior. I just wasn't knocked out. Then again for $20 I guess the Zero:2s are fine if you aren't expecting a lot more detail. The bass is very good.

I hate to say it but the KZ has a sound signature suiting more my needs than any other iem I have tried in the past month: MD Chu 2, MD Lan, Simgot EW100p, Simgot EW200, Truthear Crin Zero Red, Salnotes Zero, Salnotes Dioko, KZ x HBB PR2. I returned all of them except the Dioko and the Chu 2 and had to return the PR2 because of a defect. Yesterday I dug back my KZ ZSN (which I have since 2 years) and my KZ ZSN Pro X and if they weren't hissing on my Roland Bridge Cast they would have been back into my ears; they are really good for footsteps in gaming (I play Titanfall 2 these days, which can be compared to Apex for the sound profile). I ordered the Kiwi Ears Dolce and the QKZ x HBB last night, I'll see if they can take the lead, otherwise I'm waiting for the KZ PR3 which I got at a great discount on AE. All in all, I hate to say this but KZ offers me the sound signature that suits me best. I hate it because of all the controversies surrounding KZ ...

Hey Z. Glad you were able to get around to reviewing these. I've been enjoying my silver set a lot. I'm running a Tripowin Zonie cable, and Dunu/Spinfit tips to complete the all silver and clear look. On a side note, would the Moondrop Kato's be a worthwhile upgrade over these? I should clarify, I want a similar-ish tuning. If not, any recommendations for single dynamic IEM's under $300? Thanks. Love you man.

Although overall I wouldn't recommend them, the Fiio F3 sounded pretty good for $20 USD. The cable doesn't have enough strain relief so being non-detachable means that's going to break in 2-3 years (same place on both my units, in the y-split, left channel). Whatever the cable is made of melts, 'cause after some time it starts staining things it touches with the slightest visible drop of some fluid. I thought it was sweat getting stuck in a break in the cable, but it happened too often to make sense. The paint on the red plate also wasn't great as it scrapes off fairly easy, blue lasted longer and I've not used the black plates. If they had a better/detachable cable that could be replaced, I'd be fine with them still.

Are you going to review the topping dx9?

i bought them, the blue is so nice, they are dirt cheap, worth it.

​​@@Hijynx87 They are special, them just may not sound like it at the first listen. They lack zest and that excitement factor which in fact turns out to be a con, not a pro most of the time. Things like huge breathtaking bass or exciting and sparkly treble, warm-broght "euphonic" flavor etc. It's very rare for earphones to achieve that kind of special sound without big detriments. In the absolutely majority of cases the sparkly treble is too boosted and eneven, which leads to auditory fatigue and actual hearing damage faster; or even huge ~ 10 dB resonance peaks like the OG Zero which are even worse and also result in distortion in the affected range. Poor volume scaling, source synergy dependency, somewhat unnatural or uncanny timbre etc. It's hard if not impossible to achieve really impressive "soundstage" and other "technicalities" otherwise, though, so a highly refined yet neutral set is bound to come off as unimpressive to anyone but the most discerning and experienced listeners. Zero 2 is not up there in that category yet, but it's very close. It has some "colorations", but they're very minor and carefully done - in a way that only few IEMs achieve even in the high-end. That's what makes it special.

I'm not deep into the IEM world. I've exclusively used Tin T2 as a gigging musician for the last 4 years and they've been just fine. I just need to monitor my mix on stage. I've got the Crin Project Red coming in a few days. I'm excited to hear and use them and keep the T2 in my gym bag
