KZ - ZST
In-Ears With 1 DD + 1 BA DriversUnfortunately, even if we desire to, we won't be able to resurrect this product. The Museum is where we pay our respects to end-of-life, old, archived, but not forgotten products. This page was made with a lot of love and will live on for posterity. What to say, we're sentimental people. 😔
While this product is gone forever, here are others we recommend
Hybrid IEM with balanced armature and dynamic drivers delivering "excellent sound quality" with clear highs and detailed mids. Customers praised the wide soundstage and "best sounding headphone in this cost." However, some noted sharpness at high volumes (70%+), sound can hurt ears, and microphone quality is mediocre. Comfort varies by ear size, cable tangles easily, plastic build feels cheap.
- Best sounding headphone in this cost. Very comfortable to wear. The mic is also very good.
- Well balanced sound with perfect loudness levels. Worth every penny.
- Never before have I been so satisfied with a pair of earphones. Worth every penny.
Love it
Hi Abinash. I am so pleased the KZ ZST X has opened up new dimensions in your favourite albums. Happy discovering!
This is my very first IEM, thus I can't compare it with other IEMs but I was using the boAt Bassheads 242 before this, and all the rumors I had heard about IEMs turned out to be true. The difference is honestly mind-blowing. The sound is cleaner, clearer, and way more detailed. My favorite songs became even more enjoyable, and tracks I had completely overplayed 100+ times started sounding fresh and exciting again.
I absolutely love the design. It looks beautiful in person. The build quality is solid, the cable feels premium. Fit is good and comfortable too, even for longer sessions.
The experience with Headphone Zone was amazing as well. I genuinely loved the whole process, the website is clean, they provided clear, helpful information at every step. The communication after ordering was top-notch, and the delivery was super fast. Honestly, I haven’t seen such a smooth and satisfying experience while ordering a product from any other site. The only disappointment is that they stopped sending me pug pics in my email after delivery was completed (jk).
Thank you for sharing such a detailed and heartwarming first IEM experience! We’re thrilled the upgrade blew you away and made your favorite songs feel new again. Delighted you loved the design, build, and fit too. And hey, we miss sending pug pics too, but we’ll make sure your music journey stays just as joyful! Enjoy every note!
This is a well balanced iem. Every frequencies are balanced but still the sound feels a bit energetic. You wont feel the harsh sibilance in treble area that you find in every other chifi iems in this price range. So it is good for longer listening sessions. The build quality is also great. The only issue i found is the eartips could be better. A better aftermarket eartips could fix this. Final verdict is these iems are good choice for beginner audiophiles.
Thanks a lot for your review! We appreciate your genuine feedback.
Packing great sound for a budget price, the KZ ZST X in-ear monitors deliver clear audio but are light on bass. Despite the lack of low-end thump, their comfortable design, detachable cable, and affordability make them a solid choice for casual listeners who prioritize crisp highs and mids over bone-rattling bass.
We're glad that you had a great listening experience and thanks for the amazing review! Hope to see you soon!
Sound quality: awesome
Built quality: great
Durability: fantastic
I've been using these for about 10 months and use a normal head phone case to carry them around. They get tangled like any wire but are easily separable. It's not heavy for your ears and doesn't hurt if i wear for too long. And they are a louder than basic earphones so i keep the volume slightly lower.
I loved them so much that i suggest them to everyone who's looking to buy new. I bought 2 more for my family. I also want to buy its Bluetooth adaptor but its not available sadly. Please make it available.
Hey Gargee, thank you so much for the amazing feedback! It means a lot to us. We are so happy to hear that you are loving our products and services.
It's been one year I'm using the KZ-ZST X and I haven't spent a day without it. If you are a first time iem user this will open a new visa to your ears and let you hear some of the details in a song that you surely missed...
Hey Soukarya, thanks a lot for this lovely review and we are glad you are enjoying it! Keep the music playing.
I purchased these headphones a year ago and still there is no sound drop. The built quality of these headphones are also good and there is perfect sound pitch for music listener.
I needed an IEM for live performance specifically for listening to cues and click track and i didn't want to spend more. It is very comfortable in my ears. Music listening i can't complain due to it's low price. Overall decent IEM.
Using this Great IEM from last 2 years and adding one more in my collection GREAT JOB KZ♥️
Never felt this immense quality and separation. All the instruments and vocals are crystal clear and on point. Bang for the buck earphones and will recommend for everyone.
Pros:
-Durable design
-Great sound
Cons:
-Slightly bulky
-silver plated cable gets detached easily
We really appreciate the genuine feedback, we'll share your thoughts with the brand as well!
I'm not a serious audiophile, I'm a what you call an average audiophile who likes his music clean and rich. First things first, they come out of the box and you listen to them and aren't put into an awe, rather you feel a weird sense of the plain in which these earphones play. If you connected them to your average phone, it will pick up the voltage diffrence on it and that's just crazy! These beautiful sound producing devices will ask you to up your game to a DAC for starters, and you know they are built really well. I connected them to my 18 year old iPod Nano and let me tell you with a little bit of equalising,you can't get any better at this or even double it's price range.
I'm looking forward to get a DAC now, but for now my iPod holds my back. All in all these earphones are nothing short of a great catch 4.43/5.0
Thanks a lot for your detailed and genuine feedback, we're glad that you have such positive thoughts about the product and we'll share your thoughts with the brand as well. It'll also help our fellow customers to make the right choice!
Using it since last 2 years .

We really appreciate the genuine feedback!
It's been an Awesome experience with this IEM... Sound quality is very fine...
Thank you for your amazing review!
this was my first experience with chinese hi-fi and it was a very pleasant surprise. first of all the audio quality was really good. i was hearing stuff i had never heard before in songs i had been listening for years. i was worried about quality issues but these iems feel sturdy enough to last longer than i will. plus the green ones i bought look really good. and all of that for 1500. has been totally worth it.
We're really happy that you have such great thoughts about the product and thanks for the amazing review!
