    This is a very goof review and analysis. Are these more suitable for classical music listening? are they good for jazz?

    • @PrimeAudioReviews
      @PrimeAudioReviews  2 роки тому +2

      Yes, the airiness works well for classical and they have ample body and bass for jazz.

      @@PrimeAudioReviews Sorry about the previous misspelled word -(goof) *good. anyway I am comparing these to the KZ ZAS. I'm just looking for a sub $100 IEM that has dynamic sound, a decent stage and imaging and can handle the complexities and nuances of large scale orchestral works and make them come alive ( Mahler, Respighi, etc.) Any other KZ or other suggestions. Thanks for your help!

      I like the KZ ZS10 Pro X. You could also take a look at the Tin Hifi C3 or of course, Moondrop Aria SE.

    I have a question about these and other models from KZ in general; if I was to use them with a music player from say Astel & Kern who make some high-end stuff, would I get the full potential out of KZ’s products? I own a pair of ZS-10 Pros and I plan on buying one of Astel & Kern’s Entry-Level players.

    Brilliant review! fellow aussie here, I'm looking for some budget (sub $200) in ear monitors, I'm a drummer so will need to handle a low of low end but i also play guitar from time to time and want something thats pretty well rounded. Was looking at the Shure SE215 but heard from a few people that the audio quality in these some of theses KZ models is superior? If there are any good in ears you would recommend for a live musician who wants the best sound quality in that bracket, I'd be happy to purchase through an affiliate link!

      @PrimeAudioReviews  9 місяців тому +1

      Hi, sorry for the late response. I think something like the KZ ZS10 Pro X would be great for you. The AS16 has attenuated bass which would make it not ideal for drummers but it's a good monitor for vocals and guitar.

      Not really. Planars have authority more akin to a dynamic driver. BA is more about bass tones - well, specifically in the sub-bass. Mid-bass is more comparable but planar drivers have more texture.
