Any recommendations for replacement cables for the Exclusive Kings?

The additional BA is the plus!

I can barely manage to plot breakfast.

I eagerly await the day that KZ finally gets sick of engineering advice from unqualified youtubers and releases the ZSTroll. Just jam five or six identical BAs in the nozzle. Stagger them behind each other if need be. Be sure to have one or two firing backwards into the housing which of course...

Still waiting on my order. I'm curious, how's isolation with the foams? Reviews of good isolation are part of what steered me towards the Kings over a few other options.

Not sure, I haven't received my unit yet. Though just going by reviews and my experience with the zs5 v1 and zs6, I would say you're probably fine.

I went with the King as well. I figured the more pronounced treble would suit me since I enjoy Grados and Beyerdynamics too.

Anybody know comply/foam size for the tfz king? I've got a ton of the Aliexpress knockoff t400/t500 4.9mm foam tips for my kz iems and was wondering if they would fit the king too.

Also, I have not seen anybody mention it yet. But the Pinnacle PX is available on massdrop again, this time with their new in stock 2 to 3 business day shipping time rather than the usual wait. I'd seriously be considering grabbing them and ignoring the 11.11 sales if it weren't for the reviews...

I'm pretty sure the tfz exclusive King is going to be my 11.11 buy too. NiceHCK will have them for $78.10. They can be had from the banned seller for a couple bucks cheaper, but I think I will pass for the peace of mind.

Yeah, I was wondering when running headphones and IEMs balanced became so popular. A few years back I remember mostly just hearing about it from the dudes with the $1,000+ cryo-treated unobtanium custom cables.

I feel almost nauseous saying it, but having tried several of the cable options for the ZS6, my favorite one so far may be the gray/brown ofc cable. And it's largely because of... the memory wire. It's much better implemented in this cable. Much easier to mould and actually helps with fit. I...

I'm ashamed. I've only got three... and five headphones. And two sets of speakers.

Looking at potential options as an upgrade from my KZ ZS6 to grab during the 11.11 sale. What are the current darlings in the $100-$150 non-sale price range these days? I haven't been keeping up with this thread too well lately. As of right now I'm mostly looking at the Magaosi K3 HD and the TFZ...

Okay, but how do you feel about the Marshall Mode?

Just did this to mine late last night. I can confirm that the housing is deep enough for the pins, and connection isn't any less secure. The only problem now is that it's much harder to verify proper polarity when plugging in the cable since you can't match the curved edges anymore. I may have...

Yep.

I'm digging the new upgrade cable.

Received my KZ zs6 from gearbest this past Saturday. It was a bit of a surprise, because my tracking information never actually updated and I was about ready to contact gearbest about it.

Whatever works, works. I run just about everything through a HiFime Sabre 9018 usb DAC into a Cayin C5 amp. Plays well with everything from the KZ zs5 to my Beyerdynamic DT 880 600 ohm. Doesn't do so great with my Koss ESP-6, but those need power by the watt out of speaker taps...

I purchased the same tips and received them two weeks ago. After my Complys started shredding I just couldn't stomach paying so much for them again. So far my first pair is holding up well and I notice no difference in function between them and the Complys. The only slight difference is that...

Personally I find that foam wires really help to cut down on the overly strident treble. And the rest of the frequency range too.

Now I'm curious. Are there still two BAs visible in the nozzle?

As a Grado and Beyerdynamic fan, I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

If you're having problems with the ZST popping out of your ears, you may want to try removing the memory wire. That fixed the problem for me, as well as for a few others here. They are now one of the most comfortable IEMs I own.
