I’m confused as to what the CCA-CA4 is the 2nd generation to. It’s not like there was a first generation CCA-CA4?!

I do like the faceplate much better. I think the smooth faceplate looks nicer and more premium than the 3D one on the C10 and C16.

Looks cool :)
CCA C4 was based on ZSA (a bit less V-shape and better sound and much nicer fit for me).
It is logical to use ZSN for CA4, and the appearance is nice, although I much more prefer lighter aluminum alloys to heavier zinc ones.

I’ve never heard of the CCA C4. Nothing comes up when I search for it on Aliexpress or Google.

Ah ok. I thought C4 was a different model than C04.

So I guess that means they will be using A to denote the 2nd generation: CA10, CA16, etc

They have used "A" for CCA CA4; they can very well use any other letters and numbers :)

So they already had a CA4, and now they’re coming out with a new model as calling it the CA4?

Ok, that’s certainly not going to get confusing for people LOL

Some additional thoughts on the C10. Overall quite nice, but much too mid-bassy and smooth for my tastes.


I have the C10 on the way, but I appreciate another person who can get a good fit to appreciate the ZS10, which is still meaningfully better than the AS10, Pioneer CH9T, Magaosi K3, the Sennheiser HD58X the Koss KSC75, etc. I said when the ZS10 came out, I didn't expect KZ to match it for a couple years, and so far think that is right. The ZSN is an easier fit, working with more types of tips, so I had to try the C10.

Are these stock cables that you receive with the cca's that bad? I'm hearing this faint beeping sound with these cables. Is that supposed to happen?

Which ones would you recommend with the cca16's?
Yes. The stock cables are horrendous. I recommend the NiceHCK 8 core copper cable from aliexpress

Do I have a bad ZS10? Mine sucks. The ZSN is light years better than it and so is the AS10! I would sell it for $5 if I didn't lose the box. Now it's going to be sold for $2. :wink: Good riddance, ZS10!
