Hopefully, I'll be receiving my CCA C12 in a few days from now.

Would be better if you can compare directly to the ZS10 Pro. I can't decide between those 2. Yeah. Blue look so good.Hopefully, I'll be receiving my CCA C12 in a few days from now.

Just buy the C12 now. I'll bet it's tuned better than the ZS10 PRO which after comparing to much of the budget iems are a big letdown. While you're waiting for the reviews to trickle in grab a TFZ T2 Galaxy which is the iem that opened my eyes to what I was missing with the ZS10 PRO.Would be better if you can compare directly to the ZS10 Pro.

How's the tuning of the TFZ T2 galaxy? Heard it was quite bass head?
After reading so many reviews of the ZS10 PRO and finally hearing it I was expecting something with a more coherent tuning. The C10 sounds better to me. The T2 Galaxy is really what I was expecting.
The overall tuning is brighter than TFZ No.3 but very coherent and with a good tonality in the treble. Cymbals are done very well. I'm a drummer so obviously I know when a set isn't tuned for proper cymbal playback.....T2 Galaxy does cymbals justice with realistic fundamental and integration with low and higher overtones. A type of treble that seems better suited for a BA but TFZ pulls it off with one DD. ZS10 PRO has a strange tuning in the treble that sounds uneven and..... tizzy. Some people love its treble but I find it odd sounding when comparing it to the TFZ T2 or the Tin T2 which also has good treble.
Tonality is very good. TFZ uses a DD that seems to be better than what KZ is currently using. Hopefully the new released will address this? I hope KZ is listening to what other companies are releasing to stay on their toes and evolve as a company. TRN has shown they can try new things.
Midrange is not recessed with vocals being very detailed. There's a bit of upper midrange emphasis so female vocals are more prominent. Male vocals sound fuller on the No. 3. but still better than ZSN/ZSN PRO or CA4. Distorted guitars are full and thick when called for and acoustic guitars sound correct. The midbass has good punch but isn't peaky like some sets. The sub bass can be brutal when needed but with most tracks it simply doesnt leave you wanting more. It gives you all the bass in a track which most people are not used to. Telephone from Lady Gaga is a good example. The section after Beyonce's part has a low bass note that most sets hint at while the T2 PLAYS the crap out of. That's something I've only heard in car audio systems. People that dismiss it as only a basshead tuning are not giving it a fair shot. Wide bore tips allow a bit more treble through while the bass still retains most of its potency and always remains tight and controlled and never loose.
If anyone walked up to me and asked me to recommend them ONE iem it would be the TFZ T2 Galaxy. Its a bargain @ $60 and a steal at the $40 Drop price. I actually bought my T2 on a whim from Amazon while waiting for my No. 3 to arrive from China and I'm glad I took the chance.
I was listening to the new Tool album last night and the T2 was so engaging, musical and dynamic, rather than listen to one track to see how it compared to the No.3 and Moondrop KXXS.....I ended up listening to the entire album.

T2 Galaxy is my fav TFZ IEM. Everything sounds just right for me. I've not been able to find anything better than it in its price range so far. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Is TFZ T2 Galaxy the same thing as the TFZ Series 2? I don’t really follow TFZ, but their model naming convention is confusing for sure.
TFZ T2 galaxy and series 2 are different IEMs.
But 100% agree their naming system is extremely confusing. For example there's TFZ my love 2019 edition, my love ltd, my love 2, my love 3.

I own TFZ IEMs, been following TFZ, and I’m still confused by their naming. (Not sure I could even call it a convention or a system.)
How does the Series 2 and T2 Galaxy compare? On paper, the specs appear quite similar. They both use the same driver (12mm double magnetic “2 divided circuit” graphene dynamic).
Perhaps they throw a dart at a dart board. And on the board are words like “Series, Love, King, Queen, Galaxy, 2, 3, My, and Secret”. Then wherever the darts land, becomes the new model name?
Examples include My Garden 2, Galaxy King 3, Secret Love Series, etc. lol
I only own the TFZ No. 3, so far haven't gotten any of their other models. They're a bit pricier than the usual KZ fare, but I like the DD tuning from the TFZ No. 3. Apparently the TFZ brand is known for good bass in their tuning.
If the other headfiers vouch for the T2 Galaxy, I'm all game to try it at the next AE sale if it's cheap enough.
Haha @Slater why not you and your colleagues at your blog do a review of some TFZ models? I think a lot of interested fans will come read your reviews.
Very compelling stuff here. Good salesmanship on your part. So No3 or T2 if you had to pick one for Pop, Rock, Hip hop?
