At this point, I feel like I never used good sounding earphones.
It's a brand new world
As Kuba Klawiter once said: "the key to finding good sounding (...) headphones is to not compare them". I think it is true, my headphones always get pulverised by everything, but if I don't know the difference between my 70$ ones and some high-ends, then I won't miss the amazing sound of the expensive ones

2:40 its even better when you have a pair with a woven cable, and the tips under the buds are metal, so when you wear your earbuds in the winter, especially under fuzzy clothes, they shock your ears and deliver the sweet sound of static discharge straight to your ears

Don't forget how Raycon went "our new stuff sucks less!" and then sent him defective headphones
I think meze have just sold him on their build quality, meze products aren't bad but they consistently sound bloated and muffled, even their empyreans which I liked the most sound wise were far less enjoyable than an hd600. The meze iems were actually shocking as they were just very undetailed.
Those KZ ZSN Pros are excellent. I recently got the official true wireless extensions for them and they work so well. Amazing what happens when you buy quality.
Was also looking at it but double price of the actual earbuds makes me question if i really need it
@@uvisblumbergs8911 I got the wireless extensions with my first pair of KZ ZSN Pros last year, and they work great. All in all, I spent £40/$48 on both the IEM's and the bluetooth modules. Not the cheapest true wireless solution, but between the cheap ones they sell at Poundland, and the Hundreds of Pounds you spend on Apple Airpods, they are actually a great deal.
@@Blubatt the kz v2 bt cable or the as09 ones?
@@sargera1 I bought the AZ09's for £25 and the KZ ZSN's for £22, so in total, it was about £47 that I spent last December.
Obviously, there are cheaper options for true wireless earbuds, the best rated one on Amazon right now is £25. But what you do get with these ones are the option to switch to a cable, as well as a good battery and sound. I switched from Skullcandy Sesh earbuds to these, and I do prefer these.
I want to thank you for recommending the KZ'ds. I had no idea what audio sensations I was missing. Thank you for starting my path into the audiophile territory/rabbithole. :D

@Logan Foraker fantano's streams are funny, people switch opinions like they switch hands
I can confirm he is.
Nothing has made me long more for having hearing in both ears than listening to you talking about soundstage and the direction of sound
I like Meze's naming. They named those IEM's "Rai" meaning "Heaven" in Romanian. Idk if that was intentional but it probably was
My Japanese brain always goes "thunder" evertime I hear "rai".
I hate the feeling of IEMS because of how they feel and how it translates everything the cable touches directly into my brain. Now I'm starting to realise...its probably because the ones I was wearing were hot garbage with a shitty cable
Regular in-ear earbuds also have cables that make a lot of noise. Don't IEMS go around your ears? That should prevent most noise because I tried that with my basic in-ear earbuds and it worked. Those shitty earbuds did break really fast though. Maybe because the cable isn't made to go around your ears so there's more tension.
@@NaudVanDalen im pretty sure thatd make them "OEM" instead lol
@@aeizn1012 I mean the cables of in ear monitors often go around your ears instead of straight down.
The KZs are fantastic. Theres a reason he's recommending them so wholeheartedly
Mines like, 5-6$? They perform well with only 1 DD, a neutral tuning, but still does well with highs and bass. There's also no noise anywhere.
Its just a matter of where'd you get one. China has made lots of cheap stuff and for some reason, sometimes, they are better in everyway when considering cheap stuff

Thanks mate.
So the FiiO adapters are just that, adapters. It’s to use a single ended plug with a balanced output, but it won’t magically make your single ended headphones balanced. You’ll get the added power output, but no phase cancelation, and the signal is being sent down one wire for both ears. If you want balanced audio, you need to buy a balanced cable

“This is Labrador flavored”
Had me rolling
After learning about KZ, I got myself into an IEM rabbit hole for the past 3 years.
Things I learned:
1: Headphones companies sorta suck at making good IEMs.
2: Chinese are *Really* good at making IEMs that can beat HD600 in terms of audio quality for cheaper. (Moondrop, Truthears, etc)
3: KZ is one of the bottom of the barrel in terms of audio quality, price performance ratio, and legitimacy. (The KZ IEM put in essentially fake components inside and increase cost. It's fraud.)
You can buy cheaper IEM than KZ for $15-$25 which can easily rival audio quality of Grados SR80X (Moondrop Chu, Moondrop Chu 2, Moondrop Quark DSP, etc)
How do you like the Truthear Reds compared to the Chu? Just got them as my first set and I’m blown away how much better they sound than my $250 AirPod Pros sound. Until my cat was messing about with the cord and the right bud went out. Little wench chewed right through the cable. 😂
He’s right I can’t ignore the bongo man, no matter how I hear the song
i cant unhear the bongo man after using my superlux hd681s. pretty good cheap headphones would recommend.
Bought KZ's after hearing him rate them so often. Honestly more excited about them than my full audio system upgrade im doing in my car.
Have been using the KZ ES4 (20€) for about two years now. They are pretty damn good, compared to much more expensive IEMs I've tried. There is a bit of sibillance though.
Got my sister the KZ ZSN Pro (24€ non X) and they are quite a bit better than mine. They sound more balanced and the materials feel better.
You have good reason to be excited!

@@cenay3043 I have no experience with the Pro X version only the Pro ones. Also I only used the ES4 for extended time. The only problem I came across was that my cable became hard and wire-like. I guess the plasticizers have worn out.
I accidentally dropped them on a tile floor once and the casing of the left unit one broke open. Glued it back together and they still work like they used to.
As I said, the ZSN Pro's aren't mine so I can't tell much about them.
i got some kz's recently and i honestly never realized just how dirty my old buds were, it's amazing
KZs are fking amazing for it's price, I have the ZAX 16 and I'm prefectly satisfied.
Chi-fi has come a long way in a short time. They've gone from just ripping of single dynamic driver designs with mediocre results to designing sets with 12 balanced armature drivers per ear with 3D printed sound tubes to pipe the sound from the drivers to the nozzle. It's impressive how much progress these companies have made in just a few years, especially at the price points they're targeting. Most of that is thanks to companies like Bellsing, umm... ...'borrowing' designs for balanced armature drivers from Knowles and producing them with much lower production costs in China. People seem to be quite fond of the KZ AST, which is the 12 BA set in question.
Yeah I got some ZSN Pro X's based on this video and like wow it's like unlocking the rest of your music
Listened to that Floating Points/Pharoah Sanders/LSO collaboration and they're surprisingly details with being able to hear footsteps and the creaking of the floor and chairs and Pharoah's breath through the saxophone, would've never heard that level with the old samsung in ears i got for a fiver
@@mndlessdrwer Chi-Fi is also entering a new era with the CCA NRA and KZ ZEX. They're bringing low power electrostatic drivers to the lower price segment now.
@@jacobnathanielzpayag3885 Yeah, though there's still some build quality and design limitations with those.
Edit: I think my absolute favorite relatively attainable IEM has to go to the GS Audio GD3A, at $86+S&H. It's worthwhile, though, to add the extra $10 to the order to customize it with a metal nozzle for improved eartip compatibility. Alternately, the TRI Starsea with the DioFit Standard Leakage eartips make for an excellent performing pairing at around $150+S&H. Without those eartips, their performance is significantly impaired, and I wouldn't necessarily recommend them.

For the iSines you gotta use them with iPhone. I used to have a pair of 20s (they broke after 6 months, terrible QC) and they sounded tinny as all hell without the specific chord that’s got the built in EQ. With that chord tho, they were nuts
Maybe a better dac and Amp than what he's using
@@kaeroseon the isine has a special iPhone cable that uses dsp to eq the normally terrible (almost broken) sounding frequency response to something similar to harman. Owning a pair of isine 10s myself they kick the ass of a lot of iems for the 150 bucks I paid for them.
@@UnitedAirlinesYT strange. Glad we have much better chifi iems with better planar implementation now.
I got the iSine for a lot less than MSRP, but without the cypher cable :( if anyone wants to donate a cypher cable I’d be eternally grateful
I love rewatching this video

The snacks: "DO NOT EAT"
That's put there by the corporations. They dont want you escaping the matrix. Break the conditioning!
@@jackclark1916 This mekes sense, they are the red pills, I'm gonna taste some.
My dog once found a pack of them and ate half of them...
@@attackoncraic7583 This is something that my dog would do to.
they pair well with the plain-flavoured chips that come from internationally-shipped packages

I recently bought the KZ ZSN Pro x's and absolutely LOVE them! The fact that they sound so clear and good for not even $30CAD is insasne. My dad tried them and he and mum are going to each order themselves a pair! Thank you so much for your recommendations! :)
My band uses KZ's as our IEM's. Thanks for the suggestion Mr. Dankman

Dude those AKG buds got me from freshman year to 2 years out of highschool. Those lasted longer than a couple friendships

Can confirm, I bought the Kay Zeds(tm) to be my designated headphones for long commutes and I've never heard so much bass and top end while riding the bus. It's a little thing, but that V shape makes a difference!
For the past few months I’ve tried countless IEMs from $15 Jlabs all the way to Sony WF XM5s (and returned nearly all either due to cost or sound quality) and recently picked up a $15 pair of QKZ IEMs, and they seem to slap everything else silly. Like IEMs finally satisfied the audiophile in me, and even got me back to dealing with wires after like a decade.
it's all about finding the right one I've found out. As someone who LOVES bass, a lot of IEM's are lacking, but the QKZ HBB's are AMAZING especially considering their price.
