KZ ZAX with the FiiO UTWS3 have an amazing synergy...match mad in heaven at less money than all the higher end true wireless offerings
Unfortunately, I used to run a Japanese review blog but now I’m semi-retired, only sharing reviews thru head fi now.Very interesting way of rating and ranking IEMS! I love it
Do you have a site where I can see all of the iems you've ranked so far?
Yeah, sounds like a good idea to put it on google sheets.Unfortunately, I used to run a Japanese review blog but now I’m semi-retired, only sharing reviews thru head fi now.
I probably will put the spreadsheet on google document once it’s populated
Currently, working on Moondrop series(Aria2/Starfield/KXXS/Blessing2 OG & Dusk) , and KBEAR Starsea, and one new version of Starsea that KBEAR sent to me for review(not sure about details, maybe it’s Starshine?).
Thanks senpai!Yeah, sounds like a good idea to put it on google sheets.
Personally, I would put the iems on the left rows and the factors on the top columns. Easier to read that way and better when you got more iems in the list.
Well, if you need help with google sheets, feel free to PM me. I am the expert here with that after all.
yes please review KBear Starshine, wanting to buy, but it's $500 and not available on AmazonUnfortunately, I used to run a Japanese review blog but now I’m semi-retired, only sharing reviews thru head fi now.

Btw can you also include what source you are pairing them to? each IEMs react differently to different sourcesThanks senpai!
Haha yes that horizontal presentation is only for 3 or 4 comparison one-pager, if it gets to the list, I’d put IEMs on vertical array, and factors to horizontal

The answer depends on your preference for the treble.Looking at KZ AS12 recently. Seems to be a nice sounding IEMs with more refined sound signature (*not* aggresively V-shaped)
Shound I get AS12, or consider the newer KZ models? I'm looking for all-BA IEMs with no vents for maximum noise isolation.
I used BTR5 with high gain, apodization 1(this brings best resolution), and all IEMs were tested with same AZLA Xelastec M size ear tips for this test.what source are you using? DQ6 on BTR5 high gain has piercing treble... while KS1 on BTR5 high gain has very good resolutions and one of the best timbre under $100
I have AS12, yes among KZ line up it is a clean/warm sounding IEM. Unfortunately KZ back in time was inexperienced in designing the crossover circuits , which resulted overlapping tonal inconsistencies, tonality wise it’s good, technicalities it’s subpar. And I agree with above CA16 has same mild and mellow sound, mid-centric, if not CS16, it’s newer of KZ family and they started to accumulate the learnings.Looking at KZ AS12 recently.

The AS10 is a good all-BA model with good isolation, warm signature, nice fit.Looking at KZ AS12 recently. Seems to be a nice sounding IEMs with more refined sound signature (*not* aggresively V-shaped)
