Wow, that is a microscopic ID on that tip. It looks like 2mm or smaller!

What tips are those?

Should receive this leather case in a few days https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/New-...e-Case-Headphone-Accessories/32819742511.html looks good imho and plenty of space for the ZS5 (tho personally I removed the memory wire)

I had my eye on that one - much handier to have a flap than a zip and it looks a good size.

Anyone got a source for a good case for the ZS5? They're a bit awkward for a small case with the memory wire but I don't want something bulky.

I use these cases for larger IEMs with good results:

I bought 7 of these because adding 8 forced me to pay an extra 2 bucks for shipping.

Sixty cents a pop, semi-hard, zipper, and little pouch for eartips. One of these has my ZS5 + Bluetooth Cable + Eartips + Regular Cable and it fits it all.

Those are nice too, and I have a crap ton of those round ones. The only downside is that they're a little small, so I only use them for IEMs without memory cables and with smallish bodies. Something like MEMT X5, Rock Zircon, KZ EDSE, etc.

The cases I posted above are about 1/2" taller, so they allow breathing room for bigger IEMs like the ZS5, ZST, ZS3, Magaosi K3, QKZ W1 Pro, etc. The other advantage is the extra room allows memory wires to maintain the shape you wear them at, without having to reshape the memory wires (a requirement to fit in the small cases).

I'm surprised no one mentioned metal tins, like Altoids containers (which work great too, are very pocketable, and protect the IEM well). I also have a few heavy-duty round metal tins that were travel-sized tea containers:

I would like to have something like this. Any idea where to purchase?

Any hardware store, walmart, harbor freight, etc. Check around the tool isle, hardware isle, and the fishing/sporting goods isle.

I've also seen them in different sizes at arts and crafts stores, like Michael's, Hobby Lobby, etc.

There's also obviously online too - ebay, Amazon, Aliexpress, etc.

For metal tins, would suggest adding a layer of foam pad/sheet inside.

LOL recently I've been trying to bid on those suckers for a cent each on eBay, currently getting no luck as everyone seems to bid so high

I think you meant to post that without the quote, but with a quick eBay search I got this:

The dividers can also be removed so you can adjust the size.

But wow that's actually a really good way to sort your IEMs.

 

[NeonHD]

In addition I think these organizers would be another great way to sort your IEMs or any cable.

I'm loving my KS5's, but I mainly got them since they seemed like the best value.

I find the high's a bit too sharp compared to my M50's. I notice a lot more details with the ZS5's though. Just an amateur's view.

On the contrary I find the M50s bassy with very unimpressive highs and clarity.

Just depends on what kind of sound signature you're used to.

yep with dat fake bass hump, they're fatiguing.

Guys, it looks like KZ decided to place both BA drivers in the nozzle. Also, small dynamic no longer has a larger hole on the board (this could just be marketing photos and not representative of the real product, but 2 BA in the nozzle is probably how it is now).
This looks a lot like the 1more Tripple Driver with 2 BA drivers in the nozzle and big dynamic in the back, except KZ adds a micro driver as well.
It really does look like these 3 openings on the back are fully used, we could be looking at the new sound stage champion, but lets see how bad the isolation is first.
Funny thing, notice the screws and the holes they go in, one of them next to big dynamic driver is just for that extra Campfire Andromeda look
