actually the filter from KZ is quite thick, similar desity with the 500 mesh imo. You will have no issues if you listen with low - medium volume :D.

I think the Vader Balanced still has slightly thin and recessed vocal...

hmm maybe the Vader Balanced is a better choice... ZS10 pro 2 can be harsh without short bore tip.

glad to hear. also the one from the graph is Vader Balanced. I don't know why KZ just keep sending the Hifi ver to reviewers.

KZ Vader Balanced is really different from the Trio. Even its switch mapping is different. All profiles focus on the bass region only. You can change its profile from analytical to bass-heavy. Plus, it is really good-looking.

It is hard to beat something that is already awesome 😌. I think the Vader Balance is just a few % better; most of the improvements come from the tonality, which can be very subjective and improve with ear tips and sources.

yeah... I think you should use shorter tip to reduce the treble resonance. The Azla TWS is really decent, and it is also very comfortable.

Received the KZ-Vader Balanced version today. I purchased it with my own money, mainly because it looks prettier (so why not, haha). TLDR: the force is strong with Vader Balance version. The most popular question: Do they sound similar to the Trio? Comparison is based on 1111 setting from...

hmmm... KZ should put more tips choices for their hi end product. Otherwise.... most of the time, I use my KZ with Spinfit and Tanchijm tips. I think these 2 synergy well with KZ iems.

that's the beauty of having switches. You can use UUDD to eliminate the hotness hhehe

haha, I guess you are low volume listener. Main weakpoint of Castors are their bright treble.... But their build is like a tank...

this one, I bought SS but I think MS or M should be good. https://www.amazon.com/AZLA-SednaEarfit-Crystal-Replacement-Eartips/dp/B08TWGQCHN

I agree with him. Deeper insertion enhances the Trio quite a lot, in both details and treble extension. But I have to use 1100 setting.

Yeah, the AS24 has beautiful treble. I only found one con: its vocals are pushed a bit forward. Its bass heads toward natural, and focuses on both subbass and midbass. The ZS10 Pro 2, in my opinion, has better vocal and instrument alignment. It also focuses a bit more on subbass instead of...
