It's hard to say will it be a good purchase or not. But you have to notice that there is gonna be a graphene DD (which promises a good, deep bass, better than in the zs10) and a crossover for only two drivers per side. I predict that the es4 will be just about a good, balanced sound with nice bass and soft but pretty detailed treble.
As for me - $15-$18 is a good price to try it :wink:
I'm waiting for the ed15 and the next stop will be the es4, for sure :)
Graphene? KZ has a new DD?

Heyy guysss
I've read something good about the **** UEs (custom iems), may someone of you compare that in order to find a similar sounding kz? Are they wort ~20€?

I do wonder how wooden phones sound. I'd imagine that resonance would have play a huge factor in order to take advantage of the wood qualities. I've seen a few online but kinda thought that they might be a gimmick. But alas, I'm not as knowledgeable as you folks. Curious if some manufacturer went to the Alps and used a Spruce that is several hundred years old (lived through the little ice age). Would it sound better like a Stradivarius?
If you're curious about headphones with wood ear cups check out the Massdrop Fostex TH-X00 thread here. A very popular headphone. I love my steal of a deal $185 instead of $450 Purpleheart ones.

The KZ ES4 are supposed to have them. I wonder why the ZS10 didn't?
They might have started producing the ZS10s before they got their hands on the graphene DDs

I've got ZS10 and as usual made a video



Actually, for their price — not bad at all. Not something superb, but I've actually expected much worse


Thanks for loading the video.

If you enjoy more air and better treble extension then you may prefer the ZS6 ($45) but I'd recommend ordering a better cable for them.

thank you, but ZS6's treble is to synthetic for me, unfortunately. Quality-wise ZS10 is better, they just missing some quantity. EQing actually can fix that.

Totally agree with the EQ part.

Out of the box, It was okay, but I am thoroughly enjoying them after tweakin around with Equalizer APO. Female vocals don't sound weird, and vocals are more forward.
