Cables do not matter, in my limited experience. I use 2.5 balanced with a good resistance and comfort. I was rotating few purely for aesthetics. Moreover, I would be more concerned with the subjectivity of those hearing cables without any factual evidence, personally.

A personal opinion isn't factual evidence? I notice differences in cables and those cables had some technical stats listed in the Aliexpress listing. No stats may just be an average cable. I haven't bought enough cables to know if that is true yet.

I do notice that 16 cores are also better than 4, 8 and even 2. I read someone say previously that only 4-8 cores are necessary. I disagree from the factual evidence my ears presented to me, 16 cores all the way.

Check out my review of KZ X HBB: DQ6S HERE.

These eartips looks better than the ones that comes with OG DQ6. I don't know why KZ not selling these tips separately, couldn't find on Aliexpess.

Here’s my quandary on the new DQ6S: from what I’ve read so far, the S appears to be the same hardware, with a re-tuning; so if that’s correct, can I achieve nearly the same results by EQing my DQ6 ?

The tips are somehow an improvement.

From what i read, dq6s is basically mele tuning on dq6

You can basically in theory tune any IEMs with EQ especially a professional level EQ. Something like this:
https://www.amazon.com/dbx-231s-Channel-31-Band-Equalizer/dp/B004NDHZTY
or you can just buy a small digital mixing console that has both 31 band EQ and parametric EQ for more precise tuning.

There are many different personal opinions out there, e.g. about the flat Earth.
The objective evidence can come not only from some involved measurements but from simple double-blind tests.
Except for the clear evidence of the effect of cable resistivity, nothing else were proven.

8 or 16 cores? I switched all my favourite IEMs to 24-core cables - I just like the softness, the symmetry of weaving (those electrons carrying sound information are more organized for the ultimate finesse of the audophilic ecstacy) and the colours above all for the visual enjoyment

I have AZ09 BA adapter with ZSN Pro X. Background noise and hiss makes this pair not usable. Do you think AZ09 Pro or AZ10 will solve hiss issue?

Yes. The problem with AZ09 is that KZ set the gain too high imho. The AZ09 pro is basically an upgrade on every aspects from AZ09.

And which one should be better AZ09 Pro or AZ10? I am going to use it mostly with Windows PC for listening music and gaming.

I don't have the AZ10, but the pro so I don't know. I would still get the pro even with the AZ10 available.

I do not have Quarks, only Aria (as some reference point, since there is this mentality "upgrade from KZ", well, I could not, staying happily with KZ as very good IEMs to my ears)

Here are my CRA #2 and #3, the packages for black and crystals are wildly different, as if two different IEMs

Yep. No need to buy the new one

Anyway, will Linsoul stock the DQ6S? I can't find it on site at the moment.
Using EQ is a rather cumbersome process on my DAPS (iBasso DX-80 and DX-120) and the Foobar2000 EQ isn't very flexible either. Haven't tried any PEQs on my computer. Might be able to do some eq if I get the new Chord Mojo 2, though.
