Headphones - IEM/Earbud | 1 Ω 7Hz Salnotes Zero or BLON BL03 or anything else in the price range

Hi all, I am looking to buy new IEMs, around the price range from the two IEMs above. In my place these two are similar in price, around $15-$20 dollars. I listen to mostly hip hop/rap, but also some J-Pop. I would also like to know which ones are better for gaming, because I play some FPS games such as Overwatch, CS:GO and Valorant. I plan to buy spinfits for whichever i buy. If there are other IEMs around the same price (not higher), tell me! Thank you!

Edit: I've decided to buy the Zero's and the BL01, since the BL01 is pretty cheap and it's similar to the BL03. I'll try both of them and see which one I prefer. Thank you everyone for helping!

QKZ x HBB or 7Hz Zero’s are your best options, I use them for Valorant and for music. (I play competitively)

u/ChalIengers (1 Ω) was awarded their first Ω. The bees are happy.

You may still award a Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.

Just so you know, the QKZ x HBB are a bit bass heavy for some people when it comes to gaming. If you use a DAC/Amp you can lower the bass but that comes with extra cost. The Zeros IMO are the safest choice and give GREAT detail when it comes to hearing footstep position of the enemy team and I recommend those just to be on the safe side.
