Just a note since I did not really talk about that in the review: The 770 Pro X has 48 Ohm and is pretty easy to drive, same as the other Pro X models. Did not really want to get into detail regarding that since modern closed back studio headphones with dynamic drivers tend to be easy to drive anyway (makes sense if you need one on the road or something), different Ohm-Versions is a thing Beyer...

What's the best switches for gaming?
Hi, how do these compared with ea500lm and truthear zero red?
Truthear Red has a bit better low bass and sounds less rich in the midrange. ST7 is a bit thick and laid back here, but really nice to listen to. The EA500LM has tighter bass than the other ones (meaning it extends well and bass is there, but you may miss some rumble and punch, but great for having clean and fast bass), midrange and treble is very clean but (at least for me) not annoyingly so. If you value clarity, detail and such stuff, the Simgot is a very good choice. It could be too aggressive and thin sounding though. The ST7 sound smoother than the other ones while still having nice clarity and not dull treble. It does miss a bit of deep bass extension and bass sounds softer than on the other two. Very sweet sound though. Nice to relax.
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews thanks for answering man 👍
Great review of kz castor. Does it leak sound to the extent others are annoyed.
Thank you! Many of the newer KZ and CCA IEMs have vents on the backplate, so there is a bit of leakage. But to be honest, I do not find it much at all and do not think it would bother anyone.
Tks for your impressions and comments. Gives me a good sense of the sound characteristics of the Piccolo.
Thank you! Much appreciated.
Is the Pro X a successor to the Pro's?
I guess so. Bit cleaner bass and midrange with better treble.
kz edc pro Vs kz edx pro
Never heard the EDC Pro, sorry. I do think the EDX Pro X is great for being so cheap, but the EDC gets good reviews too. EDC Pro seems to be a bit more laid back than the EDX Pro X.
Hello bro u are very informative. But tell me clearly I love to hear bass heavy music . So what will best for me ?CCA polaris or KZ castor black bass version? Please help me to reach out😢.
Go with the Castor Black. Polaris is nice for a more balanced sound but Castor Black has a really good and strong bass perfomance for being so cheap.
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews okk thanks brother 😊
I am about to buy my first iem, which one do you recommend, KZ ZSN PRO or CCA Polaris?
Polaris is a nicer to listen too in comparison to both the ZSN Pro 2 and especially the old ZSN Pro (which can get harsh easily and just does not have a good midrange). ZSN Pro 2 is better than the normal Pro but I still think the Polaris sounds more pleasant, bit more relaxed.
Overall bass of the HD 620s is nowhere as accurate as the HD400 Pro, which sounds perfect all throughout the audible frequency range.
A word on the Sennheiser HD 620s regarding powering them with headphone tube amps. Unlike the HD 400 Pro, they don't particularly improve the sound quality. So you are better off using a very clean SS headphone amp with the HD 620s. That's my advice.
Best sounding closed backs I have heard. But compared to my favorite pair of open backs (HD 400 Pro) they sound closed (despite the hyperbolic marketing), warm (due to the mid bass bump), and lacks the dynamics and accuracy of the HD 400 Pro.
I like my dt770 pro X above everything, including: final Azurys, dt770 pro 80ohm, k371, hd25, hd650, px7 S2e, all of which i also own. For open back and second preference my hd599 are great, and for ear buds FF3S are about equal, and these against all of my IEM (Hype 4, em10, ea500lm, mp145, etc). Out of these second and very good still is the Hype 4 but i can't use in ear much anymore for skin issues
Sir ..Does this have better clarity and seperation than the blon 03???
I have never listened to the Blon, but for the price the Zero 2 is pretty good and has a flatter midrange and just more balanced treble than the Blon. So it should sound somewhat more clean and natural with instruments.
Kz edx pro x vs kz merga which better all round sound perfomence
Definently the EDX Pro X. The Merga is very bright and thin sounding, mostly only for people who like treble a lot.
I had an old ATK headphone and it was falling apart. I bought the dt770 pro X and its has great separation, but for recording the lower end is too much. When I run my guitar through my effects processor, its sound is muddier, and distortion is not good. Which Byerdynamic is best for recording and a flat or natural sound?
If you do not mind having an open back headphone, the DT 900 Pro X has a very good and more neutral sound. If you want a closed back, either the old DT770 Pro (best buy the 32 ohm or 80 ohm version so they wont need much power) or the new Sennheiser HD 620S. All of these are flatter than the 770 Pro X.
Bro can u suggest me which type c to audiojack
Well, whats your budget range?
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews 20$
Take a look at the Moondrop Click. :)
9:00 250ohm 770pro was never flat. Only 80ohm version was closer to that claim
How are these for gaming?
You mean competitive? They should work fine, Imaging is pretty good on these and the BA-drivers do work well with showing you where something happens.
Which one is better for music kz zsn pro x or kz zsn pro 2
Never listened to the ZSN Pro X, but judging from the frequency response graph the Pro 2 should sound more balanced and less "edgy" with some instruments, also has abit better bass extension (more lower bass, less midbass that could muddy the sound). If it is between these 2, I would go with the ZSN Pro 2.
Will using DAC will improve sound quality?
I do not think so. The EDX Pro X does not need much power to drive, and as long as you do not have a bad source that colours the sound in a negative way you should be fine running it in from your phone/computer. I do recommend getting at least a cheap dongle because it works more reliable with IEMs than some onboard dacs that are build in some computers. Something like the 7hz 71 works really nice. Non-detachable cable though, so do not bend it.
Should i get KZ ZSN Pro 2 or KZ Castor Improved Bass Version?
I like the Castor a bit more. Castor = more punchy bass, bit smoother but less clean midrange (still fine) ZSN Pro 2 = more balanced, better treble, sounds bit more natural
As a beginner or new to audiophile scene and wannna enter the IEM Game .Simply get Kz Castor Bass, Tangzu Wan'er and 7hz zero 2 . They are all pretty affordable and have different sound presentations That way you dont have spend much to access and identify your favorite signature sound before then getting a flagship model based on your taste
Yeah these are all pretty good choices. Most recently released budget IEMs are pretty good, its hard to really go wrong. Just have to watch out for the few outliers and some which have a very different sound like the newly released Merga from KZ (very bright and thin, treble focused).
Thank you! really useful stuff! <3
Thank you too! Glad you like my videos. :)
Is merga better than edx pro?
Veeeeery different. Merga is a really bright and thin sounding IEM. Most people will like the EDX Pro X (the newest version of the EDX line) way more.
Thanks for your work and time!
You are welcome! :)
These are the best wired headphones I ever purchased they sound great it’s the first pair of headphones I had that I felt it could handle my synthesiser at high volume but I did roll of some of the bass because I couldn’t handle it.😊
Glad you found something you like that much. :) And yeah, they have alot of bass haha.
Just found your channel. Been enjoying every review. Thanks for the great content! :)
Thank you so much! Really appreciate your nice words. :)
Will this kz castor be comfortable for small ears seems chunky and like it would go in fairly deep too
It does seem pretty chunky, but I think its still fine. Its not a small IEM nor does it have a shallow fit, but I did not have issues with the Castor. If you are unsure, the EDX Pro X should fit well with smaller ears. I like the Castor a little more, but the EDX sounds good too.
Beyerdynamic sukks, tiny veil sound with annoying trebles.
Yeah, that’s why they’re so popular…….😊
please review truthear Gate and compare it with zero 2 and chu 2 please!
Truthear Gate Review is coming, also comparing it to the new Tangzu Waner Studio Edition. :)
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews bro you should also add Sgor Adonis
I have the PR1 and PR1 Pro, i cannot tell the difference, but I do like them and the bass is big IMO. I own SKS, ZES (do not buy these, the mounting for the cable is fragile), ZS10, ZS4 ZS3. I don't feel the need to try any other earbuds
Yeah all the PR1 IEMs are pretty good. If you cannot tell the difference, you most likely have the Hifi version of the normal PR1. The PR1 "balanced" has alot more bass (too much for some) in comparison to the Pro and Hifi. Either way all of them are nice to listen too. And yeah, you already have quite a collection there, so many KZ IEMs. :D
ótimo video amigo! Você recomendaria ele para jogos competitivos?
I'll skip the ZS10 Pro 2 for ZSN Pro 2 based on warmer mids.
What are your thoughts on gaming on this IEM like valorant
Even cheaper headphones/iem is enough to play valorant. You wouldn't really need to buy expensive ones.
@@xLynxxx could you recommend some iems for valorant? im currently looking at kz zsn pro 2/ kz zex. would love to hear your opinions.
@@noel4815go for Kz Esx. I have 2 pairs of it cause it’s too good for gaming. Like how such a small iem has a big stage like a fullsize one LOL. I love it so much.
@@noel4815 i bought the kz zns pro 2 and tbh if you're opting for valorant it will need some time to get used the sounds r good but for me i still prefer normal headphones for comfort
Hey there! Do you happen to know what connection type the cable uses? I know it's 0.75 but is it qdc or 2 pin or what?
Which one do you mean? For the Castor? KZ always uses these qdc cables that are basically very recessed 2-pins (if I look on amazon I can find fitting ones under "recessed 2-pin" from Tripowin). The Galaxy MS-1 uses normal 2-pin. :)
nice review, where are you from? :)
Thanks! We are from Germany.
I didn't know that average audio means so bad beep sound in the background 😢
...I do not get what you mean? Please clarify.
Have you ever tested the TYGR side by side with the DT 1990 Pro? The last time I tested the DT 1990 Pro was four years ago, but today I heard the TYGR, and if I'm not mistaken, they sound exactly the same but without the treble peak. Maybe the DT 1990 Pro is 'faster' in dynamics, I don't know, but the treble peak really put me off
Never listened to the DT 1990 Pro, but I have read a few times that the TYGR comes quite close. I think the bass on the 1990 is maybe better extended in the lower bass (at least it looks like that). Both have a good midbass boost, but the TYGR seems to be more boomy here and the 1990 has a flatter midrange (just going from graphs here). But yeah the Treble on the 1990 is quite emphasized haha.
Which is good, edx pro x or edx pro?
Pro X should be better if you want a more natural sound. Still bassy, but less than the original and bettter with vocals/instruments.
Please review KZ Libra Hi-Res
Not available here. :(
Bro iam Confused Which is best for gaming KZ - EDX Pro or KZ - EDX Pro X?
Pro X is much better I have it it's even better than CRA Hola Waner etc If you want even clearer sound go with 7hz Salnotes Zero Mecha
Yeah the Pro X should be better, more overall clarity which helps alot of gaming.
Is the cable on the castors noisy? Can you hear things when it touches stuff?
The newer KZ cables are not microphonic at all. They catch flack for the cables but they're cheap, tough, and decent quality.
Try tangzu tang secai tips with these, they work great for unvented iems.
Thanks for the tip! I did see these popping up on Amazon and was wondering about them.
Hello Bro Please rank #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 which iem you like the best for watching various genre movies & videos on UA-cam and give me Valid Reasons ✅ KZ Vader Hi Res ✅ KZ Vader Balanced ✅ KZ AS10 Pro => The Newest IEM from KZ ✅ CCA Trio ✅ KZ ZS10 Pro2 Thank you Bro 🙏👍😁
For movies I think the Vader balanced and the Trio would be the best choice. They are very similar and have a pretty good V-shaped tuning with enough bass and clarity for movies and their soundtracks. Second maybe the ZS10 Pro 2, although I do not like it that much for music. Its still fairly well balanced and again has enough bass, especially with the switches. Maybe somewhat more clarity with dialog, which is not always preferable with movies because you usually want to have more "wow" with effects and stuff. The AS10 Pro can have an overly clean sound which can make voices/dialog sound quite harsh and all around kinda flat when it comes to effects. Although it is very technical, which can be cool for music. Would not recommend it for movies. Never listened to the Vader Hi-res.
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews Ok thank you Bro 🙏👍🙂
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews What about the AS10 Pro vs the ZS10 Pro 2 , for music?
@@rudecatror AS10 Pro is a pretty specialized IEM, very bright and detailed. Can easily sound thin and harsh with female vocals for example. If you value clarity above all, these are worth a try. I thought they sounded interesting and were not as fatiguing as I thought, but nothing I would use regularly. The ZS10 Pro 2 is more balanced, should work for most genres. I do have to say I did not like them because the midrange was somewhat weird sounding, but they get good reviews from other listeners too. Nice bass though. You could also take a look at the Tangzu Fudu (warm sounding, like it alot) or the Simgot EA500LM (detailed and clean, but more balanced than the AS10 Pro) and I recently listened to and really liked the TRN ST7, which does have a bit softer and smooth bass (so it does not hit that hard, sounds more full) and sounds so nice with many genres. Also the KZ Vader is in the same price range. Good V-shape and "consumerish" tuning, nice bass and not too much treble.
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews right on, thinking mainly for monitoring and performance - maybe the more balanced options as you’ve said. I’ll look into those, thank you
Is it good for sound quality
Yeah its quite good, especially for the price.
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews well if sound quality good, then I'm gonna buy this. Hope this worth!!
hello , can you compare the clamp force 620s with 560s please ???, it s less or same ??? for me the 560s is too tight o,n my head
It has less clamp force than the 560s.
Feels way less clampy to me than the 560s. Also has thicker padding.
Thanks a lot for the excellent review! I just purchased the DT 770 Pro 80 Ohms after comparing them to a bunch of other headphones in the same and lower price-range (AKG K-361 and K-182, Sennheiser HD 280 Pro, Superlux HD 660 Pro and HD 662F, and the t.bone HD 815). For my ears, the DT 770 Pro outperformed all of them by a mile! But then I was wondering if I was missing out by not spending even more and throwing the DT 770 Pro X, DT 700 Pro X and HD 620S into the mix. Maybe also the AKG K-371 and the Shure SRH-840A. I guess I can stop worrying and just enjoy them 😅
Thank you! Yeah the 770 Pro is still a very good headphone. I would say the 700 Pro X is maaaybe a bit of an upgrade if you want a bit more bass and are bothered by the treble peak of the 770, but I have only listened to the 900 Pro X which I think is a great open back headphone. The 770 Pro X like I said in the review is really quite different, MUCH more bass and treble and no flat midrange. Maybe more of a WOW-factor at first because bass and treble clarity, but then you do notice the weirdness in the midrange. I do like the 620s a lot. Bit more natural sounding but still clear. I have never listened to the K371 and the Shure 840A, but the 840a is generally reviewed quite well since it follows harman pretty closely. But like you said, the 770 Pro is great and very enjoyable. Most them are kind of a sidegrade or a bit of an upgrade rather than night and day (as long as you do not prefer one tuning over the other).
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews I couldn't resist and ordered the DT 700 Pro X and the DT 770 Pro X LE for comparison: To my ears, they are not better than the classic DT 770 Pro 80 Ohms. The DT 700 Pro X only have a touch flatter mid/upper mids, but lack energy in the lower mids/upper bass and sparkle in the upper treble. Lower treble can still sound annoying (e. g. cymbals, the DT 770 Pro handle them way better for me). And Soundstage is considerably more narrow. The DT 770 Pro X LE add the missing upper treble sparkle and soundstage back, but yes, they are much more V-shaped than the others. And they lack upper bass/lower mids as well, especially compared to the exaggerated lower bass, which buries the tone of bass guitars. Treble is the most annoying here. So in the end, for me, the only benefits of the Pro X models are the fact that they're much more efficient and easy to drive. They are still great, I still liked them much better than any other brands I tested. But for me they are no competition to the excellent DT 770 Pro. So no doubts anymore, I found _my_ closed-backs! 😁Especially since I also really value durability and repairability, which is something where most other brands just can't compete with Beyerdynamic at all (including Sennheiser, AKG and Shure).
Exactly! The missing upper bass and lower midrange makes some somehow sound more bassy and less bassy at the same time depending on the instruments. I also mentioned the weird weakness of some bass guitars in my other comparison. Out of the three, the 770 Pro seems the most natural sounding because it has just a little dip in the area where both other Beyers have a huge one. Glad you can finally sleep well knowing you have found a headphone you really like haha.
How do these compared with Truthear Zero Red?
The AS10 Pro is MUCH brighter. The Red has a far more balanced sound. Better low bass. Realer sounding midrange (AS can sound thin and over the top with female vocals). The AS10 Pro does really well with separation and detail though. Its a pretty specialized IEM I guess.
hmmm, sounds like a good candidate for foam tips 🤔 do you have any on hand to try out and comment...? 😀
Of course, no problem. I will try them with foam tips and get back to you soon. :)
@@absolutelyaverageaudioreviews tried it for you 😅 ordered a set along with foam tips. (had to glue the housing halves cause they were loose but no big deal) The stock tips def no good but the medium spring tip is pretty good all around. Foam tips though, for sure bring in some nice DD bass, or should i say keep it in. Doesn't seem to affect the rest of the frequency range too much though, if at all. 👌
MAN I AM SO SORRY :D I am so damn occupied with other stuff recently and I always came back here and said man I still have to try the foam tips this dude was asking for it. Thanks for trying it out yourself though! I actually never really use foam tips because I find them strangely uncomfortable, but I guess you have to give them time to get "in shape" for your ears. Glad you got an upgrade there in the bass sound. :)
I bought some for .99 cent!!
What how was it that cheap? :D
