You are right. That straight cable sticks out of my ear/head let's say unnaturaly. That 45deg. connector nicely turns around on my ear. Much better after a little modification.Love the ZST cable, as it always results in a better fit around the ear. Nice job bud.
I wish KZ would just standardize on that cable for all of the detachable IEMs.

Nothing really, just the facts in all electronics, but pretty consistent wih ChFi it seems. As far as Apple- Never had anything Apple, never will. jmo nothing more.Cold solder joints happen to all manufacturers, even Apple (more than you know). Apple surely has better QC than KZ right?
Even a pair of my Sennheisers had a cold joint I ended up redoing. So what?

By the way zse is a lateral move from es3. Just dynamic vs ba difference in treble tuning. Big bass sound reminds me of headphones.
But I was wondering 4 wires come down from the y split to the 3.5 plug. Does this mean single ended wiring is done only at the plug?
Or is the minus left and minus right connectd at the y split?
Could smeone find out from one of your spare unused kz headphone cable?

Run, don't walk, from the ED4.
They are only useful as cat toys, or to possibly throw at someone you don't like.

Sometimes I feel like the ZS5v1's has too much sub bass, but I think it's just perfect. They can be absolute bass cannons if the song is mastered like that. I feel like the sub bass can nicely tuck itself away if not needed.
ZS5v1's impress me every day. I probably have 200-300 hours on these already.

Hi, Guys!
I've been reading this and a lot of Head-Fi threads but never showed up, hiding in the shadows. Is actually a pleasure to have such a great place to discuss audio things and get into detailed, technical information. ''Claps'' to Phonograph, AproEar too.
My audio gear are quite common: AKG 404/414 (a 7, 8 years veteran with some ridiculous mods mixing them), and old Porta Pro, 15$ Sony earbuds, Philips 3060, Senn HD 238i, Motorola Pulse, QKZ, iLuv, Mercury, ZST Color, ED4, ATR, ATE-S, ED2, ES3. Most products in BR are quite expensive - due to taxes, old tributary system plus ten thousand problems not exactly related to carnaval, samba or football. Really. Including college and not born myself as a rich sir. China helps me a lot so to say.
I'm considering buying the ZS3 this week to use in Bus rides situations. People said they block outside sounds like no other cheap in-ear solution. And a 70$, 60U$ DAC/AMP for my little, still capable these days, Z3 Compact. Probabily S.M.S.L M2, Topping NX1/NX2, Auglamour or even FiiO A3.
What y'll think? Would be smart wait for the ''ZS4/ZSR/ZS?'' release?
Tks for now!

I had the KZ ED7. I liked them a lot. But I wouldn't say that they had much bass. It was sort of "there".

The ED4 is good, it's just hyper aggressive. Not for the feint of heart.

It's on Gearbest for $28 free shipping, and in stock now vs waiting a month.
I have never been impressed at Massdrop's prices. Maybe I just haven't found that "deal of the century" there yet. Just like Woot, it seems they give you a few dollars off Amazon, making the average Joe feel like they're getting a "deal". Usually you can get almost everything on other sites for much cheaper.

I wanted to get peoples opinion on witch of KZs ED line has the most bass response it does not matter to me if it drowns out the mids and highs a little
