On these things, the "pro" version usually has upgraded components.

+1. at less than $15 the senzer is exceptionally good value unless you're treble-sensitiveI actually got the Senzer H1 because of Vidal's positive review. I had not thought about it for sleeping. Just checked the fit...sticks out too far for side sleeping.
Who wore it better?
Also did a German review including some measurements if anyone's interested: headflux.de/knowledge-zenith-kz-zs6/

Hi all, I am back into the IEM fold after an excursion through earbuds, portables and over-ears.
I have just ordered a ZS6 and want to buy some foam tips following recommendations on here. Could someone please tell me what bore size is needed, please.

T500 size, so look for roughly a 5mm. The New Bees 5-7mm fits perfectly.

Am I the only one who is happy with the Starlines that came with the ZS6?

They're really comfortable and easy to put on compared to foams for me. But the shrieking trebles forced foams on mine. Maybe after more use and burn-in I will put the starlines back to see how it fares.

I don't hear shrieking treble. More extended treble for sure than on some of my gear but beautifully done for me. I don't know how to describe it but it puts me into an "otherworldly " zone that gives me moments that kind of knock the wind out of me for a moment. One night I could not stop listening for 5 hours as album after album played. I don't dare put them in for a "quick" listen.

Lots of talk of "concentration camps" in your review...is that how KZ makes these so cheap?
I actually quite enjoy the stock starlines and use them when I'm at home listening. At work, in the loud environment, I do prefer foams to block out some of the external noiseAm I the only one who is happy with the Starlines that came with the ZS6?

I use EQ so it's more of a comfort and sealing issue for me when I choose tips.
