KZ - ZSX

I am a big fan of music.... I have used many inear monitors... Believe me guys this kz zsx will sounds better than all... I have come across many reviews for this kz and finally decided to buy this product... Really worth to buy such a great and superior sound monitor... If you have budget in your hand surely go for it, you will never disappointed... Also thanks to headphonezone for quick delivery on the 3rd day i got the delivery... Nice job done by headphone zone... This is my first day review lot more to go....

Prior to purchasing this earphone I always went with a pair that cost below Rs.3000. Since I was shelling out about Rs.5000 for the KZ ZSX, I was expecting a significant jump in sound quality and I am happy to say that ZSX has not only met my expectations but exceeded them.

Before I made the purchase, I called the HeadphoneZone helpline to get a recommendation for an earphone that had good punchy deep bass but didn't compromise the high and lows and this earphone gives me just that. So, shoutout to the guy who made the recommendation.

For anyone else thinking about buying this earphone do keep in mind that it takes a bit of use and burning in for the lower end of the earphone to really shine and reach its potential.

It's not all perfect though, while the sound quality is fantastic, these earphones do lose a few marks for me in the comfort and build quality area. The cables that come with this are of the braided kind, and usually braided cables give me ease of mind that they won't break but these don't seem thaaaat durable. As far as comfort goes, if possible try em out to see how comfortable they feel before making the purchase. They don't hurt my ears or anything, but need a lil bit of adjusting every half hour or 45 mins or so.

Not wanting to end the review on a sour note, let me just reitirate again these sound amaaaazing. If you are willing to make SMALL compromises in the comfort and build quality aspects, in order to get earphones that sound next level compared to the

KZ has a reputation of being addressed as YAKZ (Yet another KZ)...They have released so many IEMs and continue to do so. I have tested almost 6 of their IEMs and I can say with certainty that this is the brightest without being harsh... One caveat though....Needs proper 72 hrs burn-in.... You will then see how they mature. So delightful to hear. ZSX puts many high end IEMS to shame... The build is classy with a resin body and a Zinc top plate. The cables and connectors are better this time and not the crappy cable they supply with other IEMs. The highlight is the sound. Sometimes it is not possible to explain ecstasy. But trust me.... It sounds fantastic after the burn-in... Out of the box it sounds dull....Packaging is minimal.. I listen to MQA recordings on Tidal on UAPP+Cobalt+ZSX; Or Tidal + LG V40 thinq + ZSX....

I bought these after reading people praising it's excellent details in high and sub low bass. After few hours of burn-in with my songs collection, I could say that these are enjoyable/fun IEMs. It takes sometime to get adjusted to large IEMs and easily tangled cable. In terms of sound quality, i find that there's good amount of low end bass but lacks definition, meh mids and slightly tinny forward highs.. I use these mostly for listening modern pop/ hip hop songs.

I would have rated higher if these came with decent eartips & good quality cable. & Might be it's just me but mic doesn't work on mine.

Fell in love with the earphones right from the first song. The bass is amazing and there's good amount of detail which I've never heard in other earphones that I previously had. Volume is high enough making amplifiers less necessary. It gives an immersive experience and the seal is good. For a price of Rs. 5000 these are extraordinary. Worth the money.

Prior using these, I was using SoundMagic E10C and I was quite happy with that. But then I though what would it be like to have an IEM. So I ordered one and used it.

The result is not bad per say but it's not like night-day difference. Unless you listen to both them very frequently, you can't tell the difference (at least I couldn't). Overall it's good but don't get your hopes high up!

Never knew what is an(IEM) In Ear monitor, after buying this KZ ZSX Terminator, I can say that it can compete with the Apple AirPods Pro, which is 4-5 times the price of KZ ZSX.

A total of 12 Drivers, 1 Dual Dynamic drivers for Powerful and Puncty Bass, 5 Dual Balanced Armatures to handle Lows, Mids, Highs and treble. Great Instrument Separation. I've used it for a month and all I can say is, it gave me the best ever sound experience.

A good part about IEM is it can be used as Wired, Neckband and can be converted to Truly wireless as well. Which was a surprising for me.

The soundstage of this earphone meant to be average. But it can be tuned to produce a better one. But when it comes to wire KZ really needs to improve the cable, it looks very cheap in terms of design. The eartips were found cheap, I replaced the KZ eartips with my Fav V-Moda Forza Silicon eartips, I can say that for me this worked as the finest fit.

I recommend to play a FLAC file, as it gives the best audio experience than 320KBPS MP3 format.

Please give some hours of burning time to the IEM to produce that awesome sound. IEM gets better with time.

Day one of experience:
Thanks to headphonezone and bluedart for quick delivery.

Pros:
1. Build Quality and looks of the IEM modules are very good.
2. perfectly fits in my ear
3. Sound quality is very good. Earlier I used Bose SSW. This is the first time I am trying an IEM , so initially I was little confused. However I liked the sound of this IEM :).
4. Checked the frequency response, I could hear as low as 25Hz and as high as 16kHz with normally. I could hear higher frequencies with extra attentions.
5. Though I am yet to test it in a noisy area, but I feel its noise cancellation is good,
6. The Microphone is decent. recording quality is good, though little noise is audible. Overall good mic for general purpose use (ph call).

Cons:

1. Wire quality is decent. But it could have been better. It is not tangle free. So need extra care to keep it organized.
2. It is little heavy for ear. Might feel uncomfortable to use for long time .

Overall the product is very good and I liked it. Its not for heavy bass lover, but it has decent bass response.

Thanks

Balanced sound, Earphone construction is Phenomenal. These are Budget IEMs. The silver cable is awesome.
