Tracking shows my ZS5 and ZS3 got to a town a little less than a 2 hour drive from me....maybe today I can take delivery, that would be 12 days door to door.
Hello everybody,
Yesterday I received KZ ZST and ZS6. It's a complete frustration. There is no bass whatsoever. Just a little bit of middle and rattling highs. ....... Just a waste of money and time for waiting. Stay away.
The problem is that I am expecting ZS 3 and 5 too.Well darn, I wish you had gotten these sooner so that all the people that think they are enjoying theirs would know better...
The only consolation is that they sound much better than UrbanFun. Well, I don't know, may be they need warming. I'll do it and report here.
Completely agree with you.... I bought them to see what the hype was about... Only sharp trebble nothing else.Hello everybody,
Yesterday I received KZ ZST and ZS6. It's a complete frustration. There is no bass whatsoever. Just a little bit of middle and rattling highs. I tried them on all DAPs I have (you can see them in the signature) and none of them worked out . Even Fiio X3-II did not make them any good. And Fiio X3-II is a good match with practically all types of earphones. Just a waste of money and time for waiting. Stay away.
Imagine that, maybe you spoke a wee bit hastily? .....maybe instead of declaring them a waste of time and money and warning others to stay away, try out some different tips (foamies might be your jam!) let them burn in a little (in my experience IEMS are very often crystalline bright and piercing straight from the box) I know there is a foam mod for the ZST that tames treble, did you look into that? It seems very simple to do and easily reversible....The only consolation is that they sound much better than UrbanFun. Well, I don't know, may be they need warming. I'll do it and report here.
You are right. I should not have hurried with the conclusion. I'll try foamies. Where can I read about a foam mod?Imagine that, maybe you spoke a wee bit hastily? .....maybe instead of declaring them a waste of time and money and warning others to stay away, try out some different tips (foamies might be your jam!) let them burn in a little (in my experience IEMS are very often crystalline bright and piercing straight from the box) I know there is a foam mod for the ZST that tames treble, did you look into that?

Could you explain what you meant by tip rolling?You need to do some tip rolling until you find the ones that give you a good seal. Foams are usually recommended with these. YMMV.

I'd guess what you described as just treble and no bass means you're not getting a good seal in your ear with whatever ear tips you've used. Try the ear tips from other 'phones if you have them. Try inserting further into your ears with the tips that came with the earphones. The only way any in ear monitor (IEM) will provide decent bass is if there's a good enough seal between the ear tip and your ear canal so that the volume of air is fixed so it will better transmit the small amount of compression caused by the driver in the IEM and fully transmit the low frequency sound waves. Even just a tiny opening in the seal will reduce the bass you hear.Could you explain what you meant by tip rolling?
