did they seriously use a driver for above 20khz.. you must be kidding me..
Well according to google translate:
"Professional acoustic tuning ZS5 sound can be in the 45KHz band still maintain a certain sensitivity response, which is almost more than 95% of the market headphones can not do the level"
damm. i want both cables :/I ordered the blue ZS5 from NiceHCK on Ali. I got it with the mic cable and silver cable. I'll post my impressions whenever they arrive and compare them with the ZS3 and ZST.

If you look at the options from NiceHCK, ordering with both cables only costs $7 more. I figured for a few bucks more I'd get both cables. Btw, NiceHCK doesn't seem to show any of the gold cables, though another seller on Ali does.
Wow, big change in opinion one post you're recommending them.
Then slating them, why the change of heart?
There are reports of QC issues with the gold cables: https://www.head-fi.org/f/threads/c...phones-and-iems.820747/page-591#post-13480398
I sure hope that NiceHCK then sends me just the cables they have shown and not any of that gold stuff. Btw, I did your ZS3 mod, taking out the little bit of foam but then replacing red filter. I don't know if it's just psychological or not, but my impressions are that the ZS3 sounds even more fantastic than before. The highs are a bit more sharp for sure and the sound is more forward so some of the laid-back smoothness is gone, but I find the overall balance of the sound signature to be far better.
I would be shocked if anyone other than a young child can hear over 20KHz. Mine is 17KHz, which is really good based on my age according to this chart of hearing degradation by age:
Mine is probably between 17khz and 16khz which considering I'm mid forties is fairly decent, I think. I'm tempted to jump on the ZS5 train straight away but given that the prices will drop a bit, I don't need the extra frequency and the last two KZ releases have seen QC issues I'm going to let others be guinea pigs this time.
