That's strange. Most would agree that the bass on the ZS6 is fairly powerful. It hits hard but doesn't feel bloated/muffled to me.- Comebackboy

I agree. There's no wow factor out of the box, unlike the ZS6 which has that popping treble which immediately hits you. The sound of ZS10 reminds me more of the ZS3 than the ZST, ZS5 or ZS6. I've probably gotten used to the ZS5 and ZS6 and thus not used to the sound of the ZS10. But I think...- Comebackboy

I don't think it's very fair to compare with IEMS 3-4x the price. But for its price, it's a very good buy. But if you're worried, I'd say wait for awhile. The price will drop eventually. It's still a good iem overall. One thing the ZS10 does much better than ZS6 is the mids. ZS6 has such...- Comebackboy

I agree. The ZS10 doesn't have the same kind of sparkle and sharpness in the treble as compared to the ZS6. Not saying that the ZS10 doesn't do well in the high range though. It's just that ZS6 are treble cannons. While I feel that the ZS10 is an overall upgrade from the ZS6, I'm abit reluctant...- Comebackboy

On a side note, I have noticed that the silver cable emphasizes the highs and tones downs the lows for the ZS10 quite significantly. The stock cable gives a punchier, stronger bass, while the silver cable emphasizes the highs. Mids sound the same for both cables to me. Depends on what kind of...- Comebackboy

Anyone having this problem with the ZS10? Silver cable doesn't fit in fully on the right side for me. Stock cable is able to fit fully, and this silver cable fits fully on my ZS6.- Comebackboy

Hello all! Finally got my ZS10. I had been listening to me ZS6 the whole day, now I'm on the ZS10. First impressions: Warm-sounding, and darker than the ZS6. Definitely does not have the treble issues that ZS6 had. Much more comfortable at high volumes. Bass is less punchy, but sounds more...- Comebackboy

I just bought the ZS6, but I feel that the bass is a little too strong for me. I was previously running with the ZS5v1 and Fiio E6, but unfortunately I lost that setup (left my whole damn pouch in a cab), so I had buy the ZS6 to tide me over until the ZS10 drops. Any EQ suggestions? I've been...- Comebackboy

Should I pull the trigger on the ZS6? Currently using the ZS5 v1. The metal casing is real tempting. Or should I hold out for the ZS10/ZSR Pro thing that's supposedly coming out this year?- Comebackboy

Yeah that's what's stopping me from buying the ZS6. I would figure the difference in terms of sound is not too noticeable, and I can live with the ZS5 plastic shell. Unless I can sell my ZS5, otherwise I don't think it would be worth it- Comebackboy

Ikr man the metal construction plus the colours. Hell, even the red one looks good. I just feel that I might regret purchasing the ZS6 later on haha- Comebackboy

Can't lie, I am still quite tempted to get myself the ZS6 just for collection, even if it doesn't sound as good as the ZS5. The black model looks sexy as hell. Sigh, I think I'll wait for more reviews as currently it seems quite mixed. Or maybe I'll just wait for KZ's next step-up release- Comebackboy

Worth the upgrade from ZS5v1? I currently have the ZS5 but I'm abit lazy and skeptical to buy the ZS6 if the improvement is minimal lol- Comebackboy

Better than the zs5? In what aspects? I personally am a treble lover but after reading that they are treble nukes, even I'm concerned. I have no problem with the Zs5 though.- Comebackboy

There's a ZS5 v2? What is the difference between the v1 and v2? Sorry if its an old question, haven't been checking this thread lately. I currently have a ZS5, how do I tell if its v1 or v2? Also, how does the ZS6 compare to ZS5? Thinking of upgrading lol- Comebackboy

I have had the ZST (sold it) and I have the ZS3 and ZS5 currently. I would say that the ZS5 is a pretty big step up from the ZS3 and for that little bit more money, I think it's worth it. Imo I liked the ZST the least of out the 3 KZs I've owned because it sounded abit muddy and the bass was...- Comebackboy

I just got my zs5. First impressions are good. Coming from the zs3, this is a pretty good improvement. Comfort doesnt bother me as of yet but I will see how it goes as I continue to test it out. Overall seems like a pretty good purchase for the price.- Comebackboy

Anyone have any conclusion on the ZS5? Been away from the CIEM scene for awhile because I was busy but then I chanced upon the ZS5 and it got me interested. I've tried the ZS3 and the ZST but I prefer the ZS3 so I was wondering how the ZS5 sounds like. Also, what is this ZSR Pro that I keep...- Comebackboy

Idk maybe I got a defective one. Bass is a bit too much for and tends to overpower the highs on bass-heavy songs. And I'm even using the silver plated cable. I guess it's a personal preference, I just prefer the ZS3's sound over the ZST. Sounds cleaner imo. Though in no way am I saying the...- Comebackboy
