Why the smaller nozzle a deal breaker? I can put any old tips with no problem and since the nozzle is smaller, I can insert it deeper than any other KZ I've owned.

Maybe the shape of my ears, but I can't get a good seal with that nozzle. Not so much the smaller size (sure it is annoying when tips come off) but the shorter length is the big issue for me.

For me its the opposite, I can insert it deeper into my ear canal. The ZAX/ZSX, I can't.

has anybody tried KZ ZSX Aptx HD CSR8675???

how was it compared to TRN BT20s Pro?

I decided to not wait for the 11.11 sale and ordered the ASX. Shipping alone will take a month already. Adding two weeks to that? Nah...

I picked the silver colour, cause of the somewhat clear case. Being able to see a bit of the internals is pretty nice.

Now I will probably need to improve on my mobile source
Alltough the dac I currently use, Hidizs Sonata HD II, is better than the sound solution of my smartphone. Plugging the AS10 into my home setup gives me even more. So if there is some potential left. Surely the ASX will benefit from a better source even more.

Kz asf or zax?

There's 2 formal reviews for the KZ ASX that just released!

1) https://www.chi-fiear.com/Hersteller/KNOWLEDGE-ZENITH/ASX - it in German, but just google translate, from CHIFI Ear. Interestingly he says the KZ ASX and ASF only differ marginally here.

2) https://www.audioreviews.org/kz-asx-review-jk/ - formal review after the first impressions from Otto Motor yesterday.


And this is amazing, you gotta watch this guy burn in his KZ ZSN Pro:

i saw that earlier. unless that thing was broken already, i personally not a fan of destroying thing that can still be of use. better to give it away to other people... but hey, that's just my opinion

But that was stupidly entertaining video As a person who never saw any changes after "burning" the headphones I find this a fine satire

As someone who is decidedly not a fan of the ZSN Pro, I'd rather put it to the purpose of entertainment rather than give someone else the gift of thin, harsh sound

It might have made a good hearing aid when donated to charity!

If somebody did that to my ZSN Pro X I'd punch his lights out. Unpopular of an opinion as it might be I do really enjoy the ZSN Pro X. It's up my alley and fixed for me what I found lacking in the ZSN Pro. It's not perfect or my favorite IEM, that is still the ZAX, but I enjoy them more than my FiiO FH1s which are more than triple the price.

The ZSN Pro is the first IEM I've ever owned (so a little bit of sentiment there) and reliable backup when I don't want to bring my better IEM's to a concert or festival. If it breaks, at least I didn't ruin something like a ZAX and they are cheap to replace.

That and this is just wasteful, could have given it to somebody they hate. Especially if it didn't work

I would have been interested to know if the thing still worked afterwards. He didn't leave it exposed to fire for all that long (and sensibly as well, since burning plastic is... not pleasant). Would have been a testimonial to KZ reliability/durability if so, in stark contrast to their main competitor that begins with T and ends with RN

Imagine if there were beryllium drivers inside and the guy burnt it with a flame. It would have released some toxic crap man!

Speaking about TRN, someone should burn the $15000 USD TRN golden ears joke Halloween prank IEM. See if it melts into real gold, or is just gold plated. But yeah I've been a bit wary of TRN's QC (my TRN IM2, TRN BT20, TRN BT20S are all dead after a few months of use). For all we know the TRN golden ears may come in the mail with one side dead or out of phase hahaha. So far I gotta say my KZs are amazingly sturdy, I've put them in pockets, at the bottom of bags without cases, in the car under hot sun and I've not had a KZ die on me so far.
