It might be worth considering to buy another CA16 and not make a purchase based on the "newness" of the contenders you have an interest in here. The CA16 is a gem of an offering from KZ. It is uniquely bassy and warm. It should have a following for those who love its sound.

I very much agree - CCA CA16 are special, warm, treble gentle and one of the best DD- BA integration.
Plus, ZAX with its more common V-shape is a nicely complimentary to CA16 - they make a great hybrid couple under $100 together :)

P. S. Got my ESX today - nice coin and a touching letter, and the top plate is at the different level of workmanship - will post my sound impressions later.

Updated EDA-Bal to be closer to harman treble target?

Very interesting. Way lower 8K-peak than the EDA. And I just ordered the EDA Balanced. :disappointed:

oh, one suggestion if you get your EDA-Bal, Change the damn eartips.
the one supplied with the iem kinda sucks. so far kbear 07 or any other widebore is recommended.

Thank you for the advice. Which differences did you perceive when you changed the tips to the Kbear 07? I've added them to my wishlist and will most likely order them but I'm a noob at this so I'm curious. :)

i don't immediately use Kbear but the supplied eartips have lousy seal.
I switch it to final-e right now(the one i have ready), my kbear just arrived so i haven't used it yet.
but after changing the eartips, the bass become rounder have better impact, the vocal have better body, its easier to hear details.

Ok, I'll see what I think, I'm going to try some different tips I've already got on the way and compare. Thank you for the advice.
