True, the Perfection is one heavy and built like a tank iem. They have a much more laid back presentation for me but as you said for $6 they absolute romp on what I call the over the counter iem's like Skull Candy and all the other cheap plastic housing iem's that usually cost twice or three times these KZ's! I'm still behind on really giving the ACME's a real test for the money as you will

I'm keeping them for now as they are burning in my first problem with mine were the QC as my red paint was all chipped on mine and the seller was offering to put $3 back into my Pay Pal but was not even worth my time, if I end up really liking the ACME I'll order a new red and a blue pair w/mic

As I write this I do have another KZ that reminds me of the Perfections SS but I won't let these go because I think they are the coolest looking KZ and I'm referring to the DT5 (Black shell, red tips and the gold band with the Chinese writing on it just looks like a Chinese iem

)


I keep these displayed in my office

Are the HDS1 comfortable? How's the isolation?
It's either this, ED9 or ED3 youth for me, I heard they are similarly bright.


HDS1 is very small, light, and supremely comfortable. Isolation is not fantastic given the three vents in the back.

The ED3 Youth/"The Acme"/c is not at all bright, with focus on mids/bass. They are very warm and smooth. Great iem. The original ED3 "Perfection" is pretty treble heavy and light on bass. It too is great, but not for the same reasons.

The ED9...well you can't go wrong with those :)

Hey guys, I just received my ATE without mic from GearBest. I'm just wondering if my unit is legit because the font on body is a little bit different. The L and R are also very hard to read like printed very poorly. The packaging and the cable look okay to me. I also noticed the sound is a little bit bassier than I expected. I never tried KZ phones before, just want to keep it as a backup to my GR07 MKII. So maybe it is bassier than I normally used to.

They are legit and as a back up to the hard to read L & R KZ was kind enough to put a red ring and a blue ring on the brass barrel where the cable is secured to the shells:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: for the price the ATE is a very good all around iem but fir me they excel in vocals:smiley: Enjoy and they will tighten up very nice after 40-50 hours.

Enjoy:beers:

Beginning to think the last few sets are ordered are being delivered from China via canoe.  The wait is torture.

Hi,
I bought ED9 for me and they are great.
My friend told me that he wants to buy good KZ headphones. He listens house, dance, hip hop etc. He wants some good bass, but no lack of mid and trebles. What do you recommend?
Thanks.

   Which exactly model of Tuna are you waiting for? 
Any other earphones for smart phones? 
Proposals for good quality earphones around 10 USD 

 
Tuna S6 White (looks gorgeous) & Tuna F1. Still on transit. I thought I had ordered the Tuna G3 also on the last sale, but apparently not, I didn't.
 
For smartphone, just order the KZ ED2 like everybody else, to begin with, at least. Amazing sound for like USD$7.00. If you love it, then others would recommend KZ ATE, KZ ED9, and KZ ED10.  This is a KZ thread after all.
