I say go for it. I found the ZSTs to be better than the ATRs straight from my phone (S7 edge & Note7), but with proper amplification, they are equally super duper good.

  I had kind of the same first impression with the ATR when I first got them. But after a few days/weeks of burn-in, i just let music played for a while. So after a few weeks, I tried them again, this time, with Comply tips, Fiio Q1, and turn the volume up. They are soooo good. Silky smooth...

Hi everyone, so I finally got around to try out a much better quality power supply. I tried the 12v 2.5a one, compared to the cheaply built one that came with the X6 but at 12v 1.0a, I hear absolutely no difference. Getting the same volume also sound quality. Don't know if it's just me not...

  Yeah, the bass man. At full blast, the bass is so satisfying. I just have to say to those who have not tried the ATRs, you have not seen the light. Everyone just seen some ATRs in their lives. Ignore the form factor, the comfort and all that. Judging only from the sound, I would definitely...

I notice something new with my pair of ATRs. They are good in low to moderate volume, but when the volume is at a head-banging level. They are sooooo screw**** excellent. Absolutely sublime, The ZSTs are also excellent even at moderate volume. I also notice that ATRs are a little harder to drive...

I want to add some more thoughts on the X6 after a couple of months with it.   The DAC is really really good. Very clean, and quite neutral. Super low noise.   But the Amp is quite poor. Just no power at all. Compared to the little portable Fiio Q1, the Q1 has more power on Low gain!   The...

Oh boy, those ZSR Pros. I would def pick up a pair if they are somewhere around $50.

I might have gotten the 'good' ZSTs then. I like them quite a bit. Just got the ATR a few days ago, while the ATRs are an improvement over the ATEs, both still sound very very laid back. Smooth as hell, but sounds so lazy. ZSTs have better bass extension, vocals and highs sound pretty decent. I...

Finally! I got the ATRs today. So far so good OOTB. Will try to do A-B comparison with the others when I have time.   These are my last KZs, not going to buy anything anymore. Until....   Oh wait, still haven't tried the silver cable yet. Dammit.

  I want to share my experience with you here. I experienced both characteristics from the same pair of ZST. I first wrote about how I felt about the ZST a while ago here on this thread. At first, I thought them to be harsh on the treble area. just sharp piercing highs. But the bass was spot on...

Ah thanks. i'll spend my money on that white replacement cable instead.

Looks like I need to get that white cable and try it on with my ZSTs and ZS3s.   Has anyone tried these new ZSTs? The clear and colorful ones. Some seller on Ali write ZST Pro, so I am wondering what's the 'pro' designate? Improvement in sound? or Just the aesthetics? The colors are nice IMO.

Reading recent posts on this thread. I would summarize that ART are closest to being balanced. Still v-shape. ZS3s are fairly new and people are liking them for being enegetic and fun to listen to. EDR2, what are they? ZSTs, people have split opinions about them. I would choose according to the...

Ah yeah. If you already have a decent sound card just the amp would be best. If i didnt meed the dac i would also be looking at either the sap ii or the sap vi.

Oops, sorry mate. I feel responsible for this. When first posted my impression of the ZSTs I genuinely liked them, they fit the best and sounded pretty good, loved that tight bass. They were my daily pairs on my 3 hours a day subway commute for a couple of weeks. I don't know if it's the effect...
