Hey Clear I think they (ZS10 Pro) are more neutral then any others I have, I only have low amount of hours on them but the cohesiveness and neutrality are what has me hooked in. As Slater mentioned one of KZs very best and most definitely in my top 5.
Thanks!...that says a lot!
Now, I need time to think about any extra change that's left in my bank account! :thinking::money_with_wings:

Oh ok thanks...I was thinking about the screen..probably,because you are often removing those for various reasons. :)

Haha, me?!? No way!!!

Yes, you! Isn't that the first thing you do when you get a new IEM? :ksc75smile:

By the way, what kind of glue/sticky substance do you use to put them back in place?

Everyone's showing off their collections, and I, too, have bought a few tens of IEMs. But somehow I (or more often my family members) manage to kill them off in a few months. Latest victim - ZSN at the hands of a brother. The cable, for which I haven't got any replacement, have to restock soon. ZS4, which has been my daily driver for the past few months, has red wire showing at the relief of the plug. This situation is getting more precarious by the day, and my reserve IEM sounds noticeably worse. Can one purchase the black ZS4 cable, with or without the mic, separately somewhere?

BBGAR’s review is up. He prefers ZS10 Pro ($35-40) over the new AS16 ($125) or the BGVP DMS ($160).


Can't wait for mine to arrive from China. It just got cleared on the custom.

This sound really good with ZSN pro and also ZS7. The bass is so good.

Does the ZS10 PRO have any Driver Flex?

None of my KZ that was released after ZSN has driver flex. ZSN, ZSN pro, ZS7, AS10 and CCA C10 don't have driver flex, but the earlier model like ZSR, ZST, etc has (not all of them just some).

Thats good to Hear that there is no Driver Flex in the ZS10 PRO, My Next question is how does it Compare to the similiarly Priced Tin Audio T2 in term of Sound?

That I don't know.

Yes, for those that find the ZS6 has too much treble, then somehow disabling or removing 1 BA is my personal preference.

You could do it many different ways - plugging 1 of the BAs with laser bond/blue tac/beeswax/clay/epoxy, ripping 1 out with pliers (hopefully not damaging the other BA), etc.

However, since I made that post other methods have come out by others, mainly manipulation using resistors - directly soldering, using an impedance adapter, or using a $3 3rd party in-line volume control adapter (which are simply adjustable resistors ie rheostat/potentiometer). The advantages of the volume control is its 1) low cost 2) fully reversible 3) infintely adjustable so you can tailor the treble to your liking.

If you search for content by @Otto Motor, he beautifully details how to use one on the ZS6 (and I think he even includes graphs showing the effect on treble).

There are other methods of tuning the ZS6 as well, but they are much more advanced for the average Joe.

I’m just an average guy, so what’s the best ZS6 mod to try at this stage of the game, in 2019? I couldn’t find Otto talking about resistors, not that I would know what to do with the.

Buy KZ ZS7 or ZS10 pro.

Significantly better than T2. Both physically and sonically.

Wonder how could you say x is better than y if the two have complete different signatures. LOL
