What the hell? they're not still using the old 0.75mm 2pins from the ZS1-ZS6 era? Looks the same.
When can we expect some first impressions of the ASF?
Yeah, better to hear some sibilances, than to have a bad treble implementation like CA16. After this terrible experience, I'll wait for a review or at least measurements (ASF, ASX)
I actually agree with you. I rather have a bit lower treble quantity than a bit too much treble quantity (that in most cases leads to sharpness or sibilance).I admit I'm weird and I'd rather the treble soften a bit if it means I have albums I can enjoy now that I otherwise couldn't. Maybe if the net loss was more than the net gain it'd be a problem, but I can definitely put up with some softer treble than I'd like if the trade is not having nails in my ears on other albums.
Anyone got the KZ ASF/ASX already? Please make a review of it, can't find any on the internet
ASX was shipped by KZ on Oct13-th. Two weeks is the most optimistic to get it for me in Canada with the noble pace of Canada Post

They planned to ship around Oct 15, then the shipping on Oct 13 is real (not just the shipping numbers created), I was among the first 10 to order ASXI thought it was Oct 31. I guess I mixed the dates up.
The KZ ASF looks interesting too, but I usually prefer a DD along with the BA's. The ASF has 5 BA's while the ZAX has 1DD+7BA's, wild, right?
How did KZ do such an amazing job merging all of those BA's and DD in the ZAX, and get the result to be so smooth - usually so many BA's sound like a mis-matched mess to me. In comparison the KZ ZAX makes it look easy.
Meanwhile, the KZ ASX looks wild, 20 BA's!
Sidenote: If you like AS10's sound, except for its dark signature, I recommend you invest in a $5 KZ silver cable and give that a try. If it's still not sparkly enough, then go for more trebly IEM from KZ/CCA product range; there's lots to choose from.
