    Not too hard to improve to his level once you eliminate input lag and play at high enough frames, and I'm not saying he's not legit -- quite on the contrary -- but there is a reason no professional player runs a 60hz display and otherwise subpar hardware. Low input lag removes the handicap and lets your potential shine through.

    So Ali I actually just bought the £49 KZ ZS10 Pro IEMs based on your video on them! They sound amazing but I do get a static hiss when using them in my Evo 4 actually. Reading about IEMs tells me it's because they're sensitive enough to pick up the smallest electronic signal from the EVO 4. This is probably your issue with the Elgato amp you tried. I have fixed the static issue by buying the iFi iEMatch+ dongle which reduces the electronic signal passing to the IEMs. They still sound great! Also, I use the Shure MV7, the SM7Bs younger brother, and added a Klark Teknik Mic Booster to get the extra gain via XLR. MUCH cheaper than the Dynamite.

    If you are patient enough, wait on the m3k (comes out late 2023). I’m in the discord and they said the cable will be improved significantly because the cable on the m2k is pretty bad and people definitely feel the drag. They claim the m3k’s cable will be as good as a wireless mouse (feels like there’s no cable) and even though they do plan on making a wireless version at some point when it’s possible, they say it would be kinda pointless because of how good the cable will be. I’m taking their claims with caution but even if it’s not as good as they claim to be, any upgrades from the m2k cable would be worth it imo.

    Hey mate, the reason you’re getting the static noise on the Wave XLR is because IEMs are usually low impedance/sensitive and the DAC/AMP in the Elgato may have a high output impedance. If you do look into replacing it, you’ll need to find a product with lower output impedance. Also, aftermarket cables are the way to go with the IE300, Tripowin Zonie or C8 are great and can be picked up for under A$50 on Amazon. Kinera makes some comfy and quality cables too but they’re a lot steeper. Koala Audio Cables makes really nice customs (at least my for my over ear HD600s).

    Hey man, I had the IE300, and had the same issue with sound cut out. It turns out, it was actually the connection to the driver inside the bud. The adhesive they use to secure the bud together isn't that strong, and mine ended up falling apart! Thought I'd let you know, in case you still get the audio cut out when you replace the cable. I'm now using the Fiio FH3, really happy and the build quality and comfort is superior to the IE300 IMO.

    Excellent and clean review as always. I would add a word of caution for those switching to in-ear earbuds for gaming. Some fps games have very loud spikes in the volume (gun shot, getting hit etc) which may consequently hurt some people's ear drum in the long run due to the enclosed nature of earbuds. I ended up with tinnitus from using earbuds and only recovered when discontinuing using them for like a month.

    true. Those shots are hard and pointy. Very bad for the ears. I'm rocking the Apple Earbuds (3.5mm version) and that one has pretty good balance of a driver compared to my 2nd Sony earbuds. But if you can't handle the sound of it I think headset is the way to go. I'll probably get one that's suited for better spatial detection. Otherwise, earbuds sre plenty light.

    I play a lot of CSGO, and I recommend you to use loudness equalization, it lower the high volume stuff and enhance the low volume stuff, you get both less disturbance from high volume sounds like rifles spray or AWP shots while enhancing far away steps and small noises, it feels almost like a cheat code for the sound profile of tactical FPS! (you might loose just a bit of spatiality, but nothing that will hinder your pin point precision)

    Interesting about the white noise in the Wave XLR. I have a Focusrite Scarlett Solo and was looking to get a Wave XLR instead because of the amount of white noise I'm hearing using my IEMs (KZ ZS10 Pros, awesome recommendation by the way!) Perhaps I'll look at getting the Audient interface if there is no white noise in the IEMs. 🤔

    5:47 It's due to the resistance/impedance of the IEMs. The resistance of the IEMs is higher than the wave XLR is able to output, creating white noise. On Elgato's wave xlr specs-page it reads: Maximum Headphone Port Output Level 77 mW @ 16 Ohm The IEMs I have checked out lately have a resistance of at least 30 ohms, meaning to power these IEMs, more power is required from the DAC/interface to the IEMs. As I understand it, its like putting a car in high gear (your IEMs resistance) at low speed (Your DACs resistance) and trying to get up a hill (Produces white noise because struggles). Your EVO 4's headphones out port supports up to 50 ohms, where the DAC output (on the back?) supports up to 100 ohms. I own a Roland VT-4 that I use for my setup, my headphones output support 24 ohms, meaning my KZ ZS10s produce some white noise while using it (these have a resistance of 30 ohms). The back of the VT-4 supports up to 1000 ohms, and while using the back I experience no white noise at all.

    Good luck finding an aftermarket cable for the ie300. Sennheiser uses a deeper mmcx connector. The only way you’ll get an aftermarket cable to work is mod the ie300s by cutting off the red/blue rings. If you’ve already done that, then you should be ok with aftermarket cables
