I haven't heard the ZS5 either but I've had the V90 since Dec '19 and it is a good IEM. Being that it's TRN though you may or may not get one that works correctly. electro mod recently reviewed it on youtube and he described his version as "dark", which it is the complete opposite of. It's V-shaped like Tonymac136 said. You'll definitely hear the highs (and the peak @ 8 KHz) along with the deep bass. Parts of the mids are somewhat recessed. It's pretty good for rock/rap/edm though, if you're into those genres.

edited post, just listened to again and changed a few observations

I do listen to predominantly electronic music. Jeeez that doesn't sound good though. I'd rather not roll the dice on my chances of getting a functioning set.

Ordering some CCA C10s but thanks for the info guys.

Edit.. canceled the C10s, was going to get the KZ ZS10 pros but after even more reading i decided to take my chances with the V90s. Hopefully i get a good set.

Has anyone done comparisons of these multi driver chifi iems to expensive stuff like campfire/bd xelentos/UE/AAW/JH audio etc? Would love to see how they fare. The Xelentos were and may still be my most desired iem that i've held off buying.

The TRN QC struck again. My M10 had faulty BAs. The replacement arrived today, excellent customer service from Senlee. Got the blue ones and they are perfect.

I bought the NiceHCK Litz for the qdc and NX7 connectors. How important is the # of cores, if the # of strands in total were to remain the same?

my opinion:

That's right. But until I published it, I didn't realize how much... We need to diversify the effort.

So the NiceHCK fukubukuro lucky bag I ordered months ago finally arrived. Of course, we all now know it was the X49 single BA.

Well, color me impressed with what NiceHCK was able to accomplish with a $14 single BA driver earphone.

I wish it had a removable cable, even if that meant a $5 higher cost. But I can live with the fixed cable, since it’s so cheap to just buy another one if the cable ever goes bad.

Does anyone know the exact driver they used in this model? The marketing didn’t specify the make/model.

An audiofool review thinks it is this one: http://www.bellsing.com/en/show-325-278-1.html

Yep. Some IEMs are technically amazing and great for listening to sound, others just let you enjoy the music. Ideally you can have one that does both, but nothing is perfect.

Perfect is when you stop analysing the music and just get lost in it :-D

Excellent, thanks for the info. I’ll have to check into that further

On another note, the KB Ear KS2 also arrived. However, the package was full of smelly water inside. The cardboard box was fused together and disintegrated upon opening it, and the KS2 themselves produce no sound at all (likely damaged by water).



Obviously, something very bad happened to this poor KS2 on its long journey. It’s too bad, because I was looking forward to checking the KS2 out.

I have to admit, getting a water logged Aliexpress package was a first for me! I sent the seller a message, so I’m sure they’ll dispatch me a replacement. Hopefully, whatever replacement will arrive in better condition!
