Oh, okay, ordering second fukubukuro then) Thank you for this thread, people)

Its not dangerous to use balaced cable through an adapter with the single ended output(TRRS -> TRS) But using standard single ended cable through adapter with a balanced output is dangerous cause you are shorting it, balanced outputs(and cables) have separate ground for each channel. For...

I got the purple\silver after checking info on this forum )) Cable feels really different: no more metal wire inside earhooks, less sticky, more like trn cables, but bad it won't fit into older models.

Joining the rave about ZSN - they are awesome, KZ nailed it. Surprised, cause I thought it is just kind of redesign of ZSTs, but it sounds so different, incredible. Enjoying ZSN and AS10 - very different signature, but both models are brilliant. Did anyone measured is there a difference between...

Not again.. ZSN ordered... Why??? I don't need them! There is no cure for KZ plague :D Anyone who already got them, what KZ are they sound like? One youtube reviewer says it sound similar to ZST, does it?

Tunaa, they are VERY sensitive, I believe its 14 Ohms. You can easily drive them from ANITHING, but also this sensitivity makes you hear your AMPS working on any source, you will hear this hissing with low volume, silent tracks and in silent ambience of course)

Tunaa, get AS10. Dont buy momentum ie - they sound much simpler, more V-shape, and mainly have issues with wire quality. Wire isolation quickly degrades and breaks, same trouble with cx 3.00, cx 5.00. It is not my imagination, I worked in headphones market for 3 years. So my advice is AS10...

ZS10 is great, not super-bright but very detailed, great separation, lows are not overwhelming, but my zs10 died in an accident :"( So I got AS10, and for my ear AS10 is tuned almost similar to ZS10, but slightly more mid-forward, and balanced. I had a couple of full BA earphones like westone...

New cable sounds MAYBE sliiiiightly brighter and I agree with mbwilson111 it is a good upgrade in terms of comfort.

Not hard enough anodizing) Everyone who wanted to order ED16 - recommend to order them, cause I heard some rumors around runet forums that it is not produced and can be sold out(I don't believe it, BUT:)) And don't forget to order the upgrade cable, cause the stock one is not that great(and it...

You did everything right! :D I felt the same when I read this thread and reviews on ZS10, but IMO they sound great with a stock cable as well) I hope you will like it is I do.

zs10 arrived, at last. Well, can't hear the "ODD" sound from many reviews. Good separation, no harshness, great imaging, they are on the dark side, non fatiguing sound) NOT FOR SMALL EARS!

Why it is so hard for some people to understand that if someone likes 30$ earbuds more than 3000$ earbuds - it is NORMAL. It is not hearing damage or lack of listening experience, it is personal tastes in sound.

Bigger shell with less holes in it will isolate U better, if the shape is right and it sits tight in your ear. For example KZs isolates me better than my Shure or Westone universal IEMs. But human ears are different, you know)

ED16 is less bulky and isolates similar to ZSRs, didn't try ES4 but I guess it fits and seals like ZSTs. In my ear ZSR and ED16 have the best isolation, ED16 is smaller and sound more natural IMO. So I recommend ED16, very good IEMs.
