Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread
You guys should focus your attention to the larger dynamic. Look at all of the last 3 pictures posted; C2thew - black, Puggie - grey, NeonHD - red. A mesh covers the driver and appears "white" in the center, the vent. A washer/ring (plastic i guess) covers the outer side of the driver under the...- Squalo

Has anyone had a ZS6 v2 in black or red? Or has all ZS6 v2 been the new grey? As in someone having one bought earlier and then one recently, and finding they sound different.- Squalo

Nymphonomaniac did you plug your left earpiece in the wrong way? As in the L marking on the cable should be on the outside of the earpiece. (Debossing on cable and print on the earpiece on the same side.) Just listnened to my ZS5 a couple of hours now to check if there is any faults with them...- Squalo

That one button mic cable for ZS5 is in the picture on Gearbest too. Not sure why they would do that. Maybe worth looking into QKZ DM7 and X10. They're probably variants of ED10. QKZ had a model ED11 that was a special version of ED10. (sounding different) DM7 and X10 are likely variations with...- Squalo

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
DD is Due diligence, stuff you check before placing an order to see if it's legit. Store has a feedback of 40 000+. But only has very few feedback (61) from the last 12 months. And almost all of the recent feedback seems to be posted between 16 Oct 2016 20:45 and 20.47. That's a 2-3 minute...- Squalo

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Has anyone ordered from a store on Aliexpress that has store number 119089 and has the name "AK Audio store" now? How did that go? That store lists a lot of stuff that are popular here (KZ, ****, TFZ, etc.) and had some good deals on 11/11. Seems to have taken a lot of orders, but for me...- Squalo

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Could I ask where you got your Urbanfun? If you got it from a seller on Aliex or from Amazon or Taobao? As you got the full deluxe set. Lots of sellers having them on Aliex for cheap at $19-20, mostly showing pictures of simple boxes in their listings. These peaked my interest, but some...- Squalo

There should be a ZTE Nubia hybrid in existence for 99 RMB. http://www.nubia.com/quantie https://world.tmall.com/item/534531142682.htm Maybe worth tracking down one for someone feeling adventurous. Costs less then the single dynamic nubia headsets from ZTE, so possibly a meh. I've only...- Squalo

How would that ZN1 mini differ from the ZS1 then ? Or did they put different drivers in the ZN1 and ZS1 (so the ZS1 isn't a ZN1 without the amp) ?- Squalo

Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread
I'm not sure if anyone has tried both EDSE and EDR1. The new EDR1 looks just like the EDSE, but it's likely to sound different. Not sure if there is some way to tell them apart. EDR1 is also cheaper so there's the risk of getting the EDR1 if ordering the EDSE... The R1 is completely...- Squalo

This is becoming a right mess... Have you talked to the seller and received some sort of reply justifying sending out units the seller sourced from the second hand market in China?
