There are uiisii, trn, memt that do good heaphonesIs there any equivalent brand to KZ on headphones?
Anyway, they're not as good as kz in price/quality except some cases.

What cases? Also, how do the Superlux compare? I need some cheap headphones but now that i'm used to some quality, i don't want a hard downgrade.

I'm not talking about iem's, i'm talking about full over the ear headphones.

ZS5 v1 again: making them work and getting Coiled!
We had this discussion over and over again here about the sound of the ZS5 v1. Some, including some reviewers, decried nasal, hollow, recessed mids. Others, such as Coil love them. Coil pointed out to us that he uses a very special array of equipment that brings out the best of the ZS5 v1. This includes low-impedance output and substantial amping. And thanks to Coil, we had to learn about impedance...a very useful exercise.
What has never been questioned was that the ZS5 v1 have good soundstage and layering.
My iPhone 5S as well as my audioquest dragonfly dac/amp do have low output impedance, but the ZS5 v1 nevertheless sounded tinny, incoherent, and heterogenous.
I finally followed Coil's second advice and attached my iPhone 5S to the good old FiiO E12 Montblanc amp and...voila...the ZS5 v1 actually sound pretty good with it: lots of width and depth, voices are coming out nicely, overall with a good fluidity. Don't know why and how and may have to create a frequency response curve for this setup.
In any case a very interesting observation.
My advise to all dissatisfied ZS5 v1 owners: blow $150 on a decent amp to get these $25 jewels to work well, finally. Or throw them away and spend the $150 on beer.
P.S. Also attached my ZS6 to the Montblanc amp...technically even better than the ZS5, but the amping also exacerbated the ZS6's piercing treble.
Yes, I have them and also the Sennheiser HD600, for example. The Philips are excellent! But they are "very open back"...you can hear them all over the house.Maybe check out the Philips SHP9500S headphones? $58 from New Egg w/ free 2-day shipping in the US. Pretty nice open-back 'phones, IMO.
Anything goes!What about stuffing some of that gauze around the BA's
(full disclosure ... I am just kidding)
Seems like Kz wants to finish the stock of edr1 or something, they are giving 1 pair for free if u purchase the zs6 in their AE store. Could this mean the end of production of the edr1?
This would NOT come as a surprise. They are old and there is more money in the new models. Grab them while you still can.
The black is more readily available i think.
