    That sounds like something I would like... I already have an IEM that's coming in the mail. Does anyone know how the ZSX would compare to the ZSN Pro?

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    To think that I was one of those people :/ But then I saw a listing for the KZ ZST pro on Amazon and it looked so good that I decided to buy it (at that price, I wouldn't lose anything). Received them, put them in my ears, never used my SE215 ever again. I really thought I would need to spend...

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    The only thing I am worried about then is comfort. Would you say you could wear these 8 hours a day? My IDUNs get in the way after 3-4 hours, my Tin T2 even faster. The only comfortable IEM that I have is the KZ AS10 where the foam tips actually get uncortable before the IEM does.

    Indeed, I forgot about those, I heard some great things about them. They're really at the top of my budget, but I like what you're telling me. I forgot to mention that I cannot use any IEM with silicone tips, I never found one that wasn't uncomfortable after a few minutes, so I always use large...

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    Hey everyone "quick" question. I'm looking into buying my next Chifi IEM. My current daily drivers are the Kinera IDUN. Sometimes the Tin T2 or KZ ZSN Pro when I want something else. With a budget of just under 300$ usd what could I buy as an upgrade? What I'm currently looking at are: Magaosi...

    I personally prefer foam over silicone because silicone causes a vacuum effect in my ears and I can't stand it. Altough as Slater said, foam may have more disadvantages than silicone.

    I finally received the TRN Im1 after Canada post decided to keep them for a month. I found it weird that almost no one talked about them. Here are my first impressions (keep in mind that I'm not a reviewer) : Let's start with the packaging. You get the iem, a janky cable and a 3 sizes of...

    That answers our doubt on what really are the ZS7. Would this mean that they will make a v2 like the ZS5?

    @fluteloop Indeed, 51$ cad would equal to 38$ usd. Good price for what these seem to be able to offer.

    Good call :p My first kz (zst pro) was from Amazon for around 25$, not bad for a 1 day delivery.

    51$ on AliExpress. Amazon is not a good source of Chinese equipment for Canadians :/

    I think driving with IEMs covering up the sounds around you would be dangerous. Earbuds should do the trick too. Buying a better Bluetooth adapter is a great solution too, cheap ones can be better than integrated stuff.

    I'll be waiting on your impressions :p this was the next iem I wanted to buy but there's not a lot of reviews. The only one I found was on the phonograph site which I absolutely hate with all my heart. I have to scroll the equivalent of 3 reviews just to get behind all of the ads and coupons...

    The zs7 sure looks interesting, but it's been out for a while now and it's still not available on the official store? I'm interested in a lot of ChiFi IEMs, but the zs7 is on the top of my list. I just find it weird that we don't see kz sell it yet. Anyone knows why they would do that?

    Nope, not me at least. Actually it is the opposite: my Shure SE215 hurts my ears after 1h, but I can wear my ZST all day and have no issue (with foam tips). I can't wear my AS10 all day without having at least a little discomfort but it's not as bad as the Shure. True, I see a lot of people...

    Is that really what you want though, don't you think it would get boring? Yes, this custom made IEM has the best fit, but it will always sound the same unless you start to play with EQ. But still, there are things that EQ cannot change. That's what's fun with ChiFi, you always have something...

    I've been reading for over a hundred pages now and it's starting to get annoying to have to read 10 pages to have information and opinions on the topic (kz products). I don't care about a little off topic here and there (like the car analogy that happened once, that was fun). I have learned a...

    My cable was molded backwards. Yet another issue. But all in all, I really like the cable but it feels a little bit too light at times. I would say that you'd be better to stay away from it because of all the phasing issues and molding and whatnot...

    Do they sound muffled and lack in detail? Maybe test another cable? I really doubt it could make that much of a difference though :/ They could be defective as we've seen some QC issues pop up for the ZSN in this thread (aka the "hole" situation)

    I've noticed that too, this is how I realized that my AC is noisy as hell, so I can't use my magni 3 to use the as10 on my desktop... But on my fiio X1II, there is 0 background noise, it's dead silent. That one of the perks of having a separate music player :p I've seen some people say that...

    I listen to Modern Metal mostly. Recordings are usually good and I can't stand an album that sounds muddy or not clean enough (metal is a crowded genre, if it's muddy, you lose all of the details that are violently thrown at you). But do I really want to have the best sound quality or different...

    Depends on the money you have and what you want :p Audio is completely subjective for me. I could get something that sounds just perfect for me, but right now, as a student, cheap IEMs are better. Sound quality is great but you can only go so far. On top of that I mostly listen to music as a...

    Why would I get 1 500$ IEM that sounds amazing when I could have had 10 50$ IEM that all sounds different (even if they are never as good as the expensive one?). What I want in an IEM is not the best sound quality, but something cheap that I can simply change for something else depending on my...

    I don't agree with him on a lot of points. First he bought a 1500$ device because it runs Android? I have a DAP with me because it does NOT run android and I don't have to baby-sit it like my phone. I think when you start getting into streaming services, buetooth would do fine fo me. His...

    Don't apologize for nothing (I know it's your Canadian blood that does that)! Massdrop sometimes is a really good source of deals for the people in the US and I don't think it is banned in any way so feel free to share the links (and it gives me for example, an opportunity to go there and read...
