Honestly, to my ear, these are not close to the Tin t2s, they are a very noticeable step up from them. The soundstage is fine, and the detail they can resolve and locate spatially on that soundstage is really shocking. After a little time with them, I went over to my $300 Hifiman planar magnetic headphones and started going back and forth. Sort of an absurd test, because the Hifiman are 6x the price, have a completely open back design, and are so huge that no sane person would ever leave the house while wearing them. So not exactly a fair fight. Are these going to replace the best headphones I own? No. But even the idea that I wanted to compare the two kind of tells you just how good these are.
EKasis Don’t worry. The Tin T2 has much better tonality than the ZS10 PRO. Not sure what Zeos is hearing here. Cover the nozzle vent with micropore tape and you get a nice bass boost.
@@Assimilator702 i'm using spinfit CP145 and i noticed an improvement in the bass, it's bouncier than before and the high is surprisingly not as spicy as i expected.
@@Assimilator702 I've heard many different opinions involving both, and in my cause I found that while my t2 are amazing, sometimes I'd like a better and crisper bass. So yeah, Z just made me get a new pair of iems + cable
You just keep recommending cheap and incredible stuff z. I bought these about two weeks ago, as my first iem and when I tried them I was very surprised. These punch way above there price point. These are so incredibly clear and detailed, but they still have some incredible punch in the bass. The mids also are very present, which I wasn’t expecting with these. A very good product for the price, amazing value. Thank you z, I appreciate you can always recommend these fantastic products. Everything I’ve bought that you’ve recommended has been amazing, and I’ve bought three things based on your reviews and some more information obviously. Now just don’t tell me about anything better damnit, I’m so happy with these and would rather not drop another 50$
I was f*cking blown away when i heard theeese for the first time. Absolute awesome litte devices. Couldn't believe what i'm hearing. And the bass. muahaaa that f*cking deep punshing bass. Unbelievable!!
Testing mine right now, wow these little suckers are glorious, and fitted with spin fits they sound and fit great! They're also prettier than expected in person, got mine in Purple and they are Beautiful, between these and my FH3's I both couldn't be happier and yet hunger to get more such as the OH10's, and Starfields, I blame Zeos for luring me into this
@@UNSCPILOT Bro seriously, i'm using pair of zs10 pro for nearly a year now and they have really bad timbre on upper-mid and treble. It is brutally killing and bleeds my ears in 1,5 to 5khz and there is so much sibilance and harshness on this iems. i used my earphones with macbook pro, galaxy note 8, couple of gaming pc's motherboard soundcards and a tempotec sonata hd pro dac amp. I can only be able to listen without so much harshness when i eq the iems, by lowering 2 and 4khz band a few db. But its killing the details in songs which is unacceptable. I have akg earphones (i believe its model is EO-IG955) which comes with a samsung galaxy s8 and note 8 phones and literally it has 10x better timbre and clearity on sibilance area. Beside that akg has better kicking bass, midbass and sub bass capability than zs10 pros. Yes, absolutely there is really impressive details, a good soundstage and imaging, really good details on treble and mid frequencies on zs10 pros but when i get that much harshness and sibilance that kills my ears, i can't really use the iems for more than few hours... I'm literally thinking that i could be scammed and got a fake pairs of zs10 pro when i watch Z's comments on this video, but there isn't fake one for this iems lol :D can anyone help me about this situation? is it just me that tooo sensitive about harshness on upper mid and lower treble frequency band or this iems is just sooooo overhyped? sorry for my English btw...
@@Kenan_Guney I have to wonder if I'm just lucky or my ears are less vunrable to that particular range because I've been running them off my Fiio M9 for a while now and they sound terrific, richer in the highs than my FH3's, but less "open" sounding (weird comparison for a IEM I know) and less rich on the bass. I find them to be a fine addition to my (tiny) collection, especially for the cost, I guess they are just hit or miss depending on the person
Adrian Paredes Gonzalez Everything is better. Number one the treble is improved. ZS10PRO treble is oddly tuned and you’ll know it if you compare it to others. ZS10 PRO treble has too much upper emphasis that makes it not focused and confusing. It sounds tizzy. ZSX also has improved treble tonality. Tonality is VERY IMPORTANT. Most people don’t mention tonality since they don’t know what is is. The bass on the ZSX extends deeper but doesn’t stick out as much and is very authoritive. Midrange on the ZSX is fuller and more forward. ZS10 PRO is thin and while slightly detailed the vocals on the ZSX are presented in a more natural manner and are the clear winner. ZSX overall sounds more natural and engaging.
Finally received.. Despite being a great all-around the Tin T2 had me wishing for more (being a detail hunter) so I received those ZS10 Pro this week end and.. *OMFG they are mind-blowing for their price range!* Best 45euros I've ever spend on tech gear so far. The sound feels full (a wide bass to treble extension) , no funky freq spikes, female vocals are intimate enough. I love when the gear can reveal songs details and they deliver on that task. The increase in detail helps also with stereo positioning (for gaming) For now I could not spot weirdness in tonality. Definitively easy to power despite the internal package. Fit surprisingly well with stock ear-tips and cable, Low profile so usable on the bed (not the case for T2 or my F4100). They are smaller that I thought, the tube exit seems wider and longer but well oriented making this a plus. I wish more cables could adopt the pin protection used in the stock cable.
Bought a pair of these because of this video and received them today. What a staggering quality for the price! One of my first quality audio devices I have. Didn't know I missed out on music this much.
I have 2 sets of these now... And i can say that while they're fantastic, qc on the cable is meh. Both came with the updated cable... One is noticeably thicker than the other... Also came much less crimped, and straightened out in a day of hanging.... The thinner one has been hanging for about 48 hours and i don't think it's ever going to uncrimp completely. Braiding seems better on thicker one too.
Dude, just like you I was absolutely raving about these at band practice earlier today! :-) The ZS10 Pro's arrived a couple days ago and I used them for the first time at rehearsal today and 'Holy Fuck'! I've had some other ZS IEM's I've been using for over a year and there is no comparison to the new ones! I've also got what seems like twice the volume out of my wireless setup but still great clarity. I was running my receiver at 75% but with the ZS10 Pro's I'm below half and have more volume. My bandmate has a pair of $200 Shure IEM's and they sound like garbage compared to these so I've just ordered him a pair
I bought these and at 1st their sound was meh...but then I was told to let them burn for hours then use them again. They improved a lot but not untill I used that same cable you recommended, but most important: I used a good amp and then eq them to enhance their bass. These are EIMs made by a classical music focused company, therefore they sound so incredibly clear, even better than most 300 or 400 dollars headphones out there, but only for high and mids. When it comes to bass, again they are less than flat, at a point that their sound is very lacky, unless you tune them properly to trick their driver. I can give their bass clarity a 7 out of 10. Highs and mids are solid 10/10 for their price.
Just bought these for $42 CAD ($32 USD) from Aliexpress! Will update when they arrive, hopefully they're legit Edit: they sound amazing! A bit harsh on the high end so I reccomend a bit of EQing, but otherwise REALLY fun to listen to. The level of clarity is close to my HD58Xs
You'll like the KZ ZSN Pro. They're like a ZS10 Pro with a bit more treble, and costs half the price with the same dynamic driver, cable and tips. The ultra budget option.
I love the ZSN Pro as well, but I wish they fixed the GIGANTIC 6% THD spike at ~760Hz @ 100dB just like the ZSN original. (see rtings review on the KZ ZSN) For the price I cant complain, and that's why I use them as my daily's at work. I wonder what causes this. Crossover? dynamic driver flex? The only thing I perceive is that the mids to low treble sounds harsh and fatiguing at higher volumes. I do have to say it again though, definitely still worth it at 23 Americano bucks.
@@igoresque That noise is just the amp's noise floor. It gets more noticeable with low impedance / efficient / sensitive headphones. The ZSN Pro is 24Ω, instead of the usual 32Ω. It isn't noticeable with a good amp or while playing music (on my Moto G5 it just sounds like the average dither noise, and the amp automatically shuts off when no sound is playing).
Got these babies for $31 on AliExpress. With the money I saved, I also bought their Aptx HD BT 5.0 module...not the best, but decent enough for paying $50 for both. These punch way above their price class; a proof of concept (along with the Tin P1) that great sound doesn't have to cost a fortune.
Can't wait to give them a listen. I love cheap audio. EDIT: Got them yesterday. That little oomph of bass is exactly what the T2 is missing. Zeos is right in that the T2s are nice and mellow. I'll use them at night when I want to chill and not disturb the Mrs. The ZS10 Pro is my new daily driver. If you have them, listen to Queens of the Stone Age - Burn the Witch and try not to giggle. I dare you. Also, I'm gonna go ahead and say it; the stock cable is bullshit. Yeah, they're $50. Don't care. The cable is terrible. Hate to buy another cable when I have a drawer full of them, but I'll likely break down and do it.
I'm glad I've found your channel. I've ordered these a few days ago and wanted to check out the reviews. I'm really excited as someone that had both of my last headphones that i spent money on stolen. I had the Beyerdynamic T1's open back and the Shure SE215's. I wish i could do what you do, I'd never leave that room with all those on display.
The Z10 Pro's are very impressive for the price! I pair mine occasionally with the Cayin C5 amp which gives a smoother / warmer sound (but retains all the detail). I found with stock tips the treble could sometimes get fatiguing. . Treble (and comfort) improved further when I swapped the tips for some Spriral Dots. The ZS10 Pro's also respond really well to the Cayin's bass boost function!
I can totally agree on the don‘t buy expensive headphone cables, BUT I have a different reason for that: build them yourself! I‘m running my Sony MDR-Z1R from a THX-789 with a SMSL-SU8 and built a custom 19AWG 0.75mm silver plated balanced cable with a 4-pin XLR connector and BOOM, paid like 15-20$ including screwable 3.5mm male plugs for the Sony. Comparable cable from retailers costs 200+ bucks. And hell yeah, with such an expensive pair of headphones, balanced actually matters and a good quality pair of cables is the very least. Now I ordered the ZR10 Pro‘s for my Rift S, but I‘m willing to upgrade the cable for the 16-core linsoul silverplated one with 4.4mm jack, so I‘m building myself a custom adapter from 4-pin XLR to female 4.4mm, so I can use them balanced with a great quality cable on my desktop setup and with the default cable on the Rift S.
I've had these with the replacement cable and dekoni pads, been listening on my goblu since 2021, I don't see myself ever replacing them, gonna have these for life
I have moondrop blessing 2 (4BA, 1DD) which cost 7 times more expensive than KZ ZS10 Pro. Slightly more details and imaging, alot less harsh and bassy but for the price to performance wise, KZ ZS10 Pro is unbeatable.
The package has bloody arrived. Playing the soundtrack to the Big Star Nothing Can Hurt Me documentary on Amazon audio right now with the KZ ZS10 Pros. Out of the box, they fit fine, after some rams horn configuration round my ears, not falling out, snug, they sound damned good already. The definition in each channel is stupendous, bass is pretty deep, tight, but not overdone at all. When drums or heavy bass instruments kick in, you will feel it. Mids and upper are fine, also not overdone! Goddamn! I'm plugged into my Creative labs G6 card via Dell gaming PC. The power these are capable of is absurd, I can see that right off. I only have the main vol. up to perhaps 11 and that's pretty loud, with some good rock/pop personal EQ going on the G6, though. The definition and clarity, already, are rivaling the Fostex RP40s I own. And I'm not a huge IEM fan, either. And they're absolutely not clinical-sounding, whatsoever.
@@dddingo2262 Not at all, thus far. Haven't even used it on my iPhone, only with the home PC CLabs card, and my Fiio lossless player. Hearing nothing but the music.
One thing to note with these, and something I'm finding across a wide range of IEM's, is that they taper off pretty aggressively around 10Khz. The lack of "air" can leave a bit to be desired. Otherwise these are my number one choice when I'm away from my Beyers and Focals.
Bought them as my 6yr old Shure SE215 began to fall apart (Plastic literally flaking off). Got SUPER surprised by the amazing sound, especially because I did not expect much. What a jackpot!
@@JOOOOOOOE not at all, I have a regular lg stylo 4 phone and 3/4 of the way up in volume feels like you're there in the studio, a couple of clicks louder and it gets uncomfortable. I would say they are easy to power.
z thanks so much for making this video. I've had mine for about an hour now with foam tips and that silver cable and I couldn't be happier. You earned this sub!
I bought the KZ-ZS10 pro after watching this review. Listening to this review on them right now. Holy crap! Sound great right out of the box with standard tips. My source audio player is an LGV30.
Bought these 12/15/19 and upon arrival these sound very, very good right out of the box, the best 50 bucks I've spent lately, these sound much better than my Sennheiser HD 599 se at 150.00. Buy these and enjoy.
a reviewer said the KZ ZSX are basically the same as the zsn pro with slightly more detail in the highs and a little more prone to ear fatigue than the ZS 10 PRO because of the added details Update: i now have both ZSX and ZS10 pro, zsx do have cleaner détail in high end but also i feel the médiums are more present on the zsx (good thing) I dont feel anymore fatigue with one or the other, probably a minute difference if any Basically the zsx are better across most i not all of the spectrum, even though the difference isnt ground breaking I think they have a minimal price differece and i would advise the zsx to a first time buyer like a friend
Tè Kreyva I have both the ZSX and ZSN PRO and the ZSN. The ZSX are significantly better than both. And most assuredly better than the ZS10 PRO. Which review did you ready that states this?
TheChazas I have the Tin T2 and they are shockingly great and mind blowing when considering the price. The downside is the design of the shell. I will deal with it for $28 but not for $60. The metal build quality is top notch but the fit is horrendous. Without the nozzle mod I can’t get them to stay in my ears with silicone tips. Foam tips work it kill all the treble for me. I don’t see how it was possible they were designed to fit human ears. Holes in a wall....yes. Not human ears.
Bro seriously, i'm using pair of zs10 pro for nearly a year now and they have really bad timbre on upper-mid and treble.

@@Kenan_Guney These do have some harsh highs at times so maybe your ears do not enjoy it as much. But for clarity these are amazing with details. We all have different ears. I use silicon ear tips that hold these super close to my eardrum. Play with ear tips maybe?
@@HYBECTIVE I tried foam eartips, the ones comes with zs10 pro and my akg silicone eartips they are very similar but not helping about harshness. Also i did the reversing technique with kz's starline eartips and it did the biggest difference but the harshness is still there on some tracks. I figured it out that is a cost of really detailed sounding in this price range i think. Yes it has really good detail, clearity and seperation for its price but there is sibilance that i can't get over. Or its just too much for my ears. maybe not for someone else. I'm looking to buy something like final audio e5000, moondrop or a fiio fh3 maybe. Thanks for your reply.
I just got these, paid $28 including shipping for these from Aliexpress and $7 for the KZ branded upgrade cable, arrived 3 weeks after ordering. OMG they can compete with my $400 IEMs and headphones no problem at all, for $27! Ok, my $400+ ones are trying to be as much neutral as possible, but the ZS10 is colored towards the V or U shape, then again, so what, who doesn't like more clarity on highs and puncher bass to give that bit extra excitement. $27 is ... ... I'm speechless...
I listened to these today. Holy shit I was amazed. I own ZSN Pro X and IE800 (both sound amazing) and they put them to shame. I have a pair of ZEX on the way. I don't even touch my full-size headphones anymore since I discovered KZ Audio.
You can get these for $34 on Aliexpress directly from KZ (Official Store). I own these, the CCA C10, the KZ KD9, KZ EDR1, CCA CST and KZ ZS6. I bought all of them from the official shop on Aliexpress and had no problems. I paid around $100 for all of them and have no regrets. Are these the best IEMs I've ever had? No. But they are all worth the money. Even the KZ EDR1 for 5 dollars. Someone is doing a really good job at Knowledge Zenith.
These are still my favorite IEMs for everyday use. I loved my FH5s but they broke and then I got these. If these go bad I might see what’s out at that point …but prolly just buy another pair of these. 👍🏾
You won't be disappointed. I was amazed by the clarity and the bass of this iem. I haven't found a genre that doesn't sound good, but live music really stands out with them.
So I wanted to thank zeos for this recommendation. And also for the users and future users, yes the tripowin c8 wire is too freaking good. It took the zs10 pro to pro max level and I wonder what it might become with the 16core wire. This set of earphones are for those who want to enjoy music and also for those who create music. The money isn't even the context here. If these were for a $150-200 range sets, these were still a great catch.
Zeos. I just got the royal blue with mic in the mail ($45 US) off Amazon. I brought myself back to this video just to say these sound AMAZING. I can't believe sound quality for $45 can even be ascertained. I have Fostex T50s, Phillips headphones, and seriously i am BLOWN AWAY by these. I really can't afford this because I'm a poor graduate student but god damn. I can't wait till my P1's come into the mail. But Drop has been taking 3 months.. whats new. Anyways, seriously to anyone. Buy these. They sound EXCELLENT. I feel like I'm listening to legit headphones. Words can't describe blown away I am by these.
that's exactly how I feel. I'm listening to them right now via my EarStudio E100 bluetooth receiver (AptX) and I'm dumbfounded how incredible it sounds. It sounds better than my legit headphones. Never thought that IEM could sound this good specially via bluetooth.
Please note that Z is reviewing these IEMs with third party foam tips that he know provide a good seal with his ears. KZ only provide crappy tips with their IEMs in the box, so you are in no way certain you will get a good seal similar to that of Z. I think Z need to start reviewing what is in the box and not add fancy cables and tips when he make his judgements. Or at least also tell what experience he get with what's in the box.
Hi everyone! I recently got my KZ Z10 pro straight from Aliexpress. The brown wire that came along with it is not very prone to tangling as these reviews are saying. I guess they have updated the cables since their first release!
I got it from Amazon this week and mine tangles a ton its horrible Edit: I got the cable in the description 2pin 0.78mm and it never tangles any more its a godsend
Thank you for this review...I will purchase this.. Bought Tin T2 for about 33$ in my country....ZS10 Pro about 38$....Will purchase it later on.. Using it with Fiio E10...Good enough i guess..
I almost agree with everything Z says in this video. I have both the T2 and the ZS10 Pro - the T2 is a "smooth" option - but it's smooth because it is rounded out in so many areas - at the expense of fidelity of sound. The ZS10 Pro with stock tips is fairly hot tonally - but the detail, clarity, imaging, etc. is fantastic. I put some Xelastic tips on them & it cuts that hot tonality down to nothing. They're an absolute pleasure to listen to. I have some $200 Mee Audio Pinnacle P1's; the ZS10 Pro outperforms them in every single category hands down. T2 is a good IEM, it really sounds nice! ZS10 Pro sounds better. If you have to choose, get ZS10 pro.
"Buy not crap headphone cables" Well said. Honestly, decent-good-great cables won't change your Headphones/Earphones, but they have less-no microphonics, look better, feel better, and for IEMs it makes them more comfortable. Also bad cables will make CAN make your sound be really weird, tried some dollerama cables and they legit can ruin sound.
I never ever ever comment on videos but... this guy is really entertaining and fun plus the way he describes well, he just sold me the earphones. All doubts gone. I'll just watch any of his videos just for entertaining. Marvelous job.
I just bought these. And I gotta say, I love them. They get a bit Sibilant at times but I don't notice it too much. I never knew earphones could be so detailed and clear. A good listening experience when I'm away from my DT-880's. And these KZ ZS10 pros sound much better than my Audio Technica M20x headphones. (I just didn't expect earphones to be able to compete with dedicated headphones) My only gripe is that these are uncomfortable if you like to sleep on your side while listening to them.
Have had these for a long time I just watched to relax myself lol, they are detailed but my main gripe is the 10k peak these things have. It made me realize my sensitivity to 10k, but EQing this is a delight.
@@thenarrator1921 I imagine. I have to make sure not to turn my volume all the way up on my phone or they start getting really sibilant. As long as I keep it down it's all fine and dandy. I know the app I use has an EQ, but it's just a basic one with only a select amount of bands to adjust. I'd love to turn up my volume without nastiness.
Just got mine in and they sound amazing on my Macbook! But when I plug them into my Amp/DAC, I have to hold the button on the mic to get full power and to prevent them from sounding garbled.....no clue whats going on.
So glad you got to these after I recommended them in a previous review. Not that I actually think you review anything based on what I say, but hey I like to pretend :)
@Z Reviews I’m so fucking glad I listened to you and bought these! They are so insanly good for the price and I’m almost laughing when listening to them! 🤩👌
I have both and I honestly prefer the ZS10 pro Edit: I actually think the ZS10 pro has a wider soundstage than the tin t2. I may be crazy but while gaming with these I found it way easier to tell exactly where the enemy was vs the tin t2
Been listening to the 10s and the T2 again after a while, while the 10s have a deeper base (at least on my ifi BL), the T2 have a more rounded sound with no spikes. It's the T2 for me.
Watching this video from my tin t2 that just arrived The tin t2 is on a different level when it comes to sound stage and imaging with clear mid and lows its perfect for gaming and music in general. While the ZS10 pro sound like a perfect pop music iem I think i will buy the ZS10 pro as well but i want to stick with Tin t2 for now ^^
I've had those for a year now, they were always good, but I never felt like they are amazing, I was using silicone tips the whole time, man what a mistake, received my first memory foam tips yesterday, night and day difference, the bass is not as intrusive now, but a lot tighter, the sound is more clear in general, plus they isolate better so I can focus on the sound better, somehow they even made the sound stage wider (probably because with silicone tips, the end of the headphone went right in there, with those it's more recessed) In general, I cannot imagine even needing better headphones now, before they felt inferior the the MSR7 I also have, now I feel like selling those, as the only benefit they serve at this point is long term comfort.
Z-man! Bought the Kzzs10 pro's for $47 per your recommendation and I have to say I just love these IEM. Incredible sound for under 50 bucks. I can't believe the build quality, how can the company afford to give these away for so cheap. It looks like those $500 IEM's and with detachable cables to boot. It has a such a nice balanced full sound. I'm going to get the aptX blutooth cable for it, that way I will have best of both wired/wireless worlds. It sounds better with my Earstudio E100 bluetooth receiver than my dedicated wired headphones. These destroy beatsX. I have a bad feeling that once Trump tariffs go into effect, these will become considerably more expensive. I'm almost tempted to buy another pair before shit hits the fan.
Honestly, to my ear, these are not close to the Tin t2s, they are a very noticeable step up from them. The soundstage is fine, and the detail they can resolve and locate spatially on that soundstage is really shocking. After a little time with them, I went over to my $300 Hifiman planar magnetic headphones and started going back and forth. Sort of an absurd test, because the Hifiman are 6x the price, have a completely open back design, and are so huge that no sane person would ever leave the house while wearing them. So not exactly a fair fight. Are these going to replace the best headphones I own? No. But even the idea that I wanted to compare the two kind of tells you just how good these are.
do you eq the zs10 pro
My tin t2 took almost 2 months to arrive. Ive had them for 1 week. Dammit Z
@Itz Minz_YT Probably Massdrop. Good discounts but a longer wait.
EKasis Don’t worry. The Tin T2 has much better tonality than the ZS10 PRO. Not sure what Zeos is hearing here. Cover the nozzle vent with micropore tape and you get a nice bass boost.
@@Assimilator702 i'm using spinfit CP145 and i noticed an improvement in the bass, it's bouncier than before and the high is surprisingly not as spicy as i expected.

@@Assimilator702 I've heard many different opinions involving both, and in my cause I found that while my t2 are amazing, sometimes I'd like a better and crisper bass. So yeah, Z just made me get a new pair of iems + cable
You just keep recommending cheap and incredible stuff z. I bought these about two weeks ago, as my first iem and when I tried them I was very surprised. These punch way above there price point. These are so incredibly clear and detailed, but they still have some incredible punch in the bass. The mids also are very present, which I wasn’t expecting with these. A very good product for the price, amazing value. Thank you z, I appreciate you can always recommend these fantastic products. Everything I’ve bought that you’ve recommended has been amazing, and I’ve bought three things based on your reviews and some more information obviously. Now just don’t tell me about anything better damnit, I’m so happy with these and would rather not drop another 50$
Bruh..I literally just bought mine and boom, a wild Z review appears!

@@crasyeyes009 Nice! Glad we made a good choice.
@FireLion Royal blue is easily the best color combo.

I really like them too, esp because the bass is super smooth

They're also prettier than expected in person, got mine in Purple and they are Beautiful, between these and my FH3's I both couldn't be happier and yet hunger to get more such as the OH10's, and Starfields, I blame Zeos for luring me into this

Beside that akg has better kicking bass, midbass and sub bass capability than zs10 pros. Yes, absolutely there is really impressive details, a good soundstage and imaging, really good details on treble and mid frequencies on zs10 pros but when i get that much harshness and sibilance that kills my ears, i can't really use the iems for more than few hours... I'm literally thinking that i could be scammed and got a fake pairs of zs10 pro when i watch Z's comments on this video, but there isn't fake one for this iems lol :D can anyone help me about this situation? is it just me that tooo sensitive about harshness on upper mid and lower treble frequency band or this iems is just sooooo overhyped? sorry for my English btw...
@@Kenan_Guney I have to wonder if I'm just lucky or my ears are less vunrable to that particular range because I've been running them off my Fiio M9 for a while now and they sound terrific, richer in the highs than my FH3's, but less "open" sounding (weird comparison for a IEM I know) and less rich on the bass.
I find them to be a fine addition to my (tiny) collection, especially for the cost, I guess they are just hit or miss depending on the person
"but... now these exists!" here we go again -_-
My Daughter stole my Tin T2’s . Just found my new IEM’s..cheers Zeos
Gary Smith she has good taste
Gary Smith Get the KZ ZSX. They better than the ZS10 PRO. I just got my pair of ZSX today and they’re a significant improvement over the ZS10 PRO.
@@Assimilator702 What do the ZSX's improve over the ZS10 PRO?
Adrian Paredes Gonzalez Everything is better. Number one the treble is improved. ZS10PRO treble is oddly tuned and you’ll know it if you compare it to others. ZS10 PRO treble has too much upper emphasis that makes it not focused and confusing. It sounds tizzy. ZSX also has improved treble tonality. Tonality is VERY IMPORTANT. Most people don’t mention tonality since they don’t know what is is. The bass on the ZSX extends deeper but doesn’t stick out as much and is very authoritive. Midrange on the ZSX is fuller and more forward. ZS10 PRO is thin and while slightly detailed the vocals on the ZSX are presented in a more natural manner and are the clear winner. ZSX overall sounds more natural and engaging.
@@Assimilator702 I Think I'm gonna buy the ZSX'S then, about The TRN and CCA, how do they sound? I love TIN T2's but I wanna buy another pair of iems.
Finally received..
Despite being a great all-around the Tin T2 had me wishing for more (being a detail hunter) so I received those ZS10 Pro this week end and.. *OMFG they are mind-blowing for their price range!*
Best 45euros I've ever spend on tech gear so far.
The sound feels full (a wide bass to treble extension) , no funky freq spikes, female vocals are intimate enough. I love when the gear can reveal songs details and they deliver on that task.
The increase in detail helps also with stereo positioning (for gaming)
For now I could not spot weirdness in tonality.
Definitively easy to power despite the internal package.
Fit surprisingly well with stock ear-tips and cable, Low profile so usable on the bed (not the case for T2 or my F4100).
They are smaller that I thought, the tube exit seems wider and longer but well oriented making this a plus.
I wish more cables could adopt the pin protection used in the stock cable.
i am hesitating between t2 and zs10 pro. my sound profile is neutral. which one do you recommend? (build quality and comfort is also important for me)
Gawd damnit! I don't need more IEMs! (Purchased)
:D
Bought a pair of these because of this video and received them today. What a staggering quality for the price! One of my first quality audio devices I have. Didn't know I missed out on music this much.
Ah, I see that you're a man of culture
All has been
@@idkwhatname3133 means the same thing these days
They are using two armatures for the mids and two for the highs with a 10mm dual magnet dynamic driver.
I have 2 sets of these now... And i can say that while they're fantastic, qc on the cable is meh.
Both came with the updated cable... One is noticeably thicker than the other... Also came much less crimped, and straightened out in a day of hanging....
The thinner one has been hanging for about 48 hours and i don't think it's ever going to uncrimp completely. Braiding seems better on thicker one too.
The replacement cable from Amazon actually sounds better, no snake oil, is softer and flexes better to me
Use a heatgun to steaighten the wires
Dude, just like you I was absolutely raving about these at band practice earlier today! :-) The ZS10 Pro's arrived a couple days ago and I used them for the first time at rehearsal today and 'Holy Fuck'! I've had some other ZS IEM's I've been using for over a year and there is no comparison to the new ones! I've also got what seems like twice the volume out of my wireless setup but still great clarity. I was running my receiver at 75% but with the ZS10 Pro's I'm below half and have more volume. My bandmate has a pair of $200 Shure IEM's and they sound like garbage compared to these so I've just ordered him a pair
I bought these and at 1st their sound was meh...but then I was told to let them burn for hours then use them again. They improved a lot but not untill I used that same cable you recommended, but most important: I used a good amp and then eq them to enhance their bass.
These are EIMs made by a classical music focused company, therefore they sound so incredibly clear, even better than most 300 or 400 dollars headphones out there, but only for high and mids. When it comes to bass, again they are less than flat, at a point that their sound is very lacky, unless you tune them properly to trick their driver.
I can give their bass clarity a 7 out of 10. Highs and mids are solid 10/10 for their price.
Just bought these for $42 CAD ($32 USD) from Aliexpress! Will update when they arrive, hopefully they're legit
Edit: they sound amazing! A bit harsh on the high end so I reccomend a bit of EQing, but otherwise REALLY fun to listen to. The level of clarity is close to my HD58Xs
do you like it?
@@fuatyilmaz-hq9bs absolutely! Highly reccomended, just EQ the high end a bit lower so they aren't harsh (also use foam tips)
@@DuperGX That's an open back headphone the bass will take a dip naturally that is what open backs good at but not good if you're in public
You'll like the KZ ZSN Pro. They're like a ZS10 Pro with a bit more treble, and costs half the price with the same dynamic driver, cable and tips. The ultra budget option.
ZSN Pro feel too sensitive, I can hear the hiss from them just being connected to iPhone
I love the ZSN Pro as well, but I wish they fixed the GIGANTIC 6% THD spike at ~760Hz @ 100dB just like the ZSN original. (see rtings review on the KZ ZSN) For the price I cant complain, and that's why I use them as my daily's at work. I wonder what causes this. Crossover? dynamic driver flex? The only thing I perceive is that the mids to low treble sounds harsh and fatiguing at higher volumes. I do have to say it again though, definitely still worth it at 23 Americano bucks.
Cca Ca4 are also a really good budget option hope they will be lower than 10$ soon in europe
@@igoresque That noise is just the amp's noise floor. It gets more noticeable with low impedance / efficient / sensitive headphones. The ZSN Pro is 24Ω, instead of the usual 32Ω. It isn't noticeable with a good amp or while playing music (on my Moto G5 it just sounds like the average dither noise, and the amp automatically shuts off when no sound is playing).
MetaPixel_ Yeah, I mean their 112 db sensitivity is too much for use with a phone on low volume
Got these babies for $31 on AliExpress. With the money I saved, I also bought their Aptx HD BT 5.0 module...not the best, but decent enough for paying $50 for both. These punch way above their price class; a proof of concept (along with the Tin P1) that great sound doesn't have to cost a fortune.
Can't wait to give them a listen. I love cheap audio. EDIT: Got them yesterday. That little oomph of bass is exactly what the T2 is missing. Zeos is right in that the T2s are nice and mellow. I'll use them at night when I want to chill and not disturb the Mrs. The ZS10 Pro is my new daily driver. If you have them, listen to Queens of the Stone Age - Burn the Witch and try not to giggle. I dare you. Also, I'm gonna go ahead and say it; the stock cable is bullshit. Yeah, they're $50. Don't care. The cable is terrible. Hate to buy another cable when I have a drawer full of them, but I'll likely break down and do it.
I'm glad I've found your channel. I've ordered these a few days ago and wanted to check out the reviews. I'm really excited as someone that had both of my last headphones that i spent money on stolen. I had the Beyerdynamic T1's open back and the Shure SE215's.
I wish i could do what you do, I'd never leave that room with all those on display.
The Z10 Pro's are very impressive for the price!
I pair mine occasionally with the Cayin C5 amp which gives a smoother / warmer sound (but retains all the detail). I found with stock tips the treble could sometimes get fatiguing. .
Treble (and comfort) improved further when I swapped the tips for some Spriral Dots.
The ZS10 Pro's also respond really well to the Cayin's bass boost function!
I can totally agree on the don‘t buy expensive headphone cables, BUT I have a different reason for that: build them yourself! I‘m running my Sony MDR-Z1R from a THX-789 with a SMSL-SU8 and built a custom 19AWG 0.75mm silver plated balanced cable with a 4-pin XLR connector and BOOM, paid like 15-20$ including screwable 3.5mm male plugs for the Sony. Comparable cable from retailers costs 200+ bucks. And hell yeah, with such an expensive pair of headphones, balanced actually matters and a good quality pair of cables is the very least. Now I ordered the ZR10 Pro‘s for my Rift S, but I‘m willing to upgrade the cable for the 16-core linsoul silverplated one with 4.4mm jack, so I‘m building myself a custom adapter from 4-pin XLR to female 4.4mm, so I can use them balanced with a great quality cable on my desktop setup and with the default cable on the Rift S.
got a pair of these coming later today, safe to say im looking forward to it, my IEM collection is growing fast
I've had these with the replacement cable and dekoni pads, been listening on my goblu since 2021, I don't see myself ever replacing them, gonna have these for life
I have moondrop blessing 2 (4BA, 1DD) which cost 7 times more expensive than KZ ZS10 Pro. Slightly more details and imaging, alot less harsh and bassy but for the price to performance wise, KZ ZS10 Pro is unbeatable.
I've had these for 2 months and I love the shit out of them.
Just bought mine from AliExpress for only 35 euros! Can't wait! :D
Have they arrived yet lol
The package has bloody arrived. Playing the soundtrack to the Big Star Nothing Can Hurt Me documentary on Amazon audio right now with the KZ ZS10 Pros. Out of the box,
they fit fine, after some rams horn configuration round my ears, not falling out, snug, they sound damned good already. The definition in each channel is stupendous, bass is pretty deep, tight,
but not overdone at all. When drums or heavy bass instruments kick in, you will feel it. Mids and upper are fine, also not overdone! Goddamn! I'm plugged into my Creative labs G6 card via Dell gaming PC. The power these are capable of is absurd, I can see that right off. I only have the main vol. up to perhaps 11 and that's pretty loud, with some good rock/pop personal EQ going on the G6, though. The definition and clarity, already, are rivaling the Fostex RP40s I own. And I'm not a huge IEM fan, either. And they're absolutely not clinical-sounding, whatsoever.
is the cable sensitive like people say? like can you hear any static when it's close to your phone or smth
@@dddingo2262 Not at all, thus far. Haven't even used it on my iPhone, only with the home PC CLabs card, and my Fiio lossless player. Hearing nothing but the music.
One thing to note with these, and something I'm finding across a wide range of IEM's, is that they taper off pretty aggressively around 10Khz. The lack of "air" can leave a bit to be desired. Otherwise these are my number one choice when I'm away from my Beyers and Focals.
Bought them as my 6yr old Shure SE215 began to fall apart (Plastic literally flaking off).
Got SUPER surprised by the amazing sound, especially because I did not expect much.
What a jackpot!
Bought these and the T2's on your recommendation Zeos, and the T2's are great, these were better. Thanks man.

z thanks so much for making this video. I've had mine for about an hour now with foam tips and that silver cable and I couldn't be happier. You earned this sub!
I bought the KZ-ZS10 pro after watching this review. Listening to this review on them right now. Holy crap! Sound great right out of the box with standard tips. My source audio player is an LGV30.
I have the v60 I think the dac helps I think
After a year, are you still using the LG V30 + KZ ZS 10 PRO combo?
I resurrected a LG V30+ & I am looking out for a good pair of IEMs.
Bought these 12/15/19 and upon arrival these sound very, very good right out of the box, the best 50 bucks I've spent lately, these sound much better than my Sennheiser HD 599 se at 150.00. Buy these and enjoy.
That moment when a pair of £46 IEMS beat out my £300 sennhieser earphones

Next KZ ZSX, also maybe TFZ T2 or even TRN V90.
TheChazas TFZ T2 is excellent. Just buy it. It’s absolutely amazing for $60.
@@Assimilator702 they are definitely on my buying list. Also thinking about T3.
a reviewer said the KZ ZSX are basically the same as the zsn pro with slightly more detail in the highs and a little more prone to ear fatigue than the ZS 10 PRO because of the added details
Update: i now have both ZSX and ZS10 pro, zsx do have cleaner détail in high end but also i feel the médiums are more present on the zsx (good thing)
I dont feel anymore fatigue with one or the other, probably a minute difference if any
Basically the zsx are better across most i not all of the spectrum, even though the difference isnt ground breaking
I think they have a minimal price differece and i would advise the zsx to a first time buyer like a friend
Tè Kreyva I have both the ZSX and ZSN PRO and the ZSN. The ZSX are significantly better than both. And most assuredly better than the ZS10 PRO. Which review did you ready that states this?
TheChazas I have the Tin T2 and they are shockingly great and mind blowing when considering the price. The downside is the design of the shell. I will deal with it for $28 but not for $60. The metal build quality is top notch but the fit is horrendous. Without the nozzle mod I can’t get them to stay in my ears with silicone tips. Foam tips work it kill all the treble for me. I don’t see how it was possible they were designed to fit human ears. Holes in a wall....yes. Not human ears.
had these for like 5 days and they beat everything I've ever heard, they are so damn clean, so so damn clean
Bro seriously, i'm using pair of zs10 pro for nearly a year now and they have really bad timbre on upper-mid and treble. It is brutally killing and bleeds my ears in 1,5 to 5khz and there is so much sibilance and harshness on this iems. i used my earphones with macbook pro, galaxy note 8, couple of gaming pc's motherboard soundcards and a tempotec sonata hd pro dac amp. I can only be able to listen without so much harshness when i eq the iems, by lowering 2 and 4khz band a few db. But its killing the details in songs which is unacceptable.

@@Kenan_Guney These do have some harsh highs at times so maybe your ears do not enjoy it as much. But for clarity these are amazing with details. We all have different ears. I use silicon ear tips that hold these super close to my eardrum. Play with ear tips maybe?
@@HYBECTIVE I tried foam eartips, the ones comes with zs10 pro and my akg silicone eartips they are very similar but not helping about harshness. Also i did the reversing technique with kz's starline eartips and it did the biggest difference but the harshness is still there on some tracks. I figured it out that is a cost of really detailed sounding in this price range i think. Yes it has really good detail, clearity and seperation for its price but there is sibilance that i can't get over. Or its just too much for my ears. maybe not for someone else. I'm looking to buy something like final audio e5000, moondrop or a fiio fh3 maybe. Thanks for your reply.
@@Kenan_Guney let me know what you buy, I have been wanting to try other IEMs
As someone who have just ordered the KZ10 pros, this video is gold
My tin t2 took almost 3 months to arrive. I've had them for 1 day. Dammit Z!
I just got these, paid $28 including shipping for these from Aliexpress and $7 for the KZ branded upgrade cable, arrived 3 weeks after ordering. OMG they can compete with my $400 IEMs and headphones no problem at all, for $27! Ok, my $400+ ones are trying to be as much neutral as possible, but the ZS10 is colored towards the V or U shape, then again, so what, who doesn't like more clarity on highs and puncher bass to give that bit extra excitement. $27 is ... ... I'm speechless...
The ZS10 Pro is the KZ to own...highly recommend.
Agreed!
jeremy gunkel ZSX is much better. Comparing the 2 leaves the ZS10 PRO sounding very oddly tuned in the mids and the treble.
Joe Rico that just came out right? I need to get a set.
Watching these with the ZS10 pros and these sound wonderful for the price! A HUGE upgrade from my JBLs. Thanks Zeos!
Finally he reviews these, best bang for the buck I have ever heard
I listened to these today. Holy shit I was amazed. I own ZSN Pro X and IE800 (both sound amazing) and they put them to shame. I have a pair of ZEX on the way. I don't even touch my full-size headphones anymore since I discovered KZ Audio.
You know they're good earbuds when Z gets this excited about it lol
they truly are. Incredible is the word. For the price is like stealing.
You can get these for $34 on Aliexpress directly from KZ (Official Store).
I own these, the CCA C10, the KZ KD9, KZ EDR1, CCA CST and KZ ZS6. I bought all of them from the official shop on Aliexpress and had no problems. I paid around $100 for all of them and have no regrets.
Are these the best IEMs I've ever had? No. But they are all worth the money. Even the KZ EDR1 for 5 dollars.
Someone is doing a really good job at Knowledge Zenith.
I wonder who is the founder of KZ IEM...
@@batscaped1520 One of the founder is a former Audio Technica sound engineer
These are still my favorite IEMs for everyday use. I loved my FH5s but they broke and then I got these. If these go bad I might see what’s out at that point …but prolly just buy another pair of these. 👍🏾
Damn you Zeos! I bought both, because of your reviews and they are awesome!
Oh man, I just bought all 3 items, KZ ZS10 Pro without mic black, Dekoni tips & the silver wire. Can't wait for them to arrive.
You won't be disappointed. I was amazed by the clarity and the bass of this iem. I haven't found a genre that doesn't sound good, but live music really stands out with them.

Thanks Z, based on this review. I purchased these and the cable and the tips. Just spent the last 5 hours listening to these. Love them !!
So I wanted to thank zeos for this recommendation. And also for the users and future users, yes the tripowin c8 wire is too freaking good. It took the zs10 pro to pro max level and I wonder what it might become with the 16core wire. This set of earphones are for those who want to enjoy music and also for those who create music. The money isn't even the context here. If these were for a $150-200 range sets, these were still a great catch.
Extension is just how I like it. Instruments like cymbals just sound amazing.
they are $35 or less on aliexpress. I have the ZSN pro and I like it. if I didnt already have 7 pair of china IEM I would buy these
Zeos. I just got the royal blue with mic in the mail ($45 US) off Amazon. I brought myself back to this video just to say these sound AMAZING. I can't believe sound quality for $45 can even be ascertained. I have Fostex T50s, Phillips headphones, and seriously i am BLOWN AWAY by these. I really can't afford this because I'm a poor graduate student but god damn. I can't wait till my P1's come into the mail. But Drop has been taking 3 months.. whats new. Anyways, seriously to anyone. Buy these. They sound EXCELLENT. I feel like I'm listening to legit headphones. Words can't describe blown away I am by these.
that's exactly how I feel. I'm listening to them right now via my EarStudio E100 bluetooth receiver (AptX) and I'm dumbfounded how incredible it sounds. It sounds better than my legit headphones. Never thought that IEM could sound this good specially via bluetooth.
@@swifty1969 Listening to this review with the KZ ZS10 pro. #ZeosEffect
I started with the FIIO FH1, then fell in love with the T2, and somehow just lost 45 bucks, damn it!
Received my Zs10 Pros yesterday. I am SO impressed! Thanks for the review, you helped me finally decide which IEM to purchase. Thank you!
Please note that Z is reviewing these IEMs with third party foam tips that he know provide a good seal with his ears. KZ only provide crappy tips with their IEMs in the box, so you are in no way certain you will get a good seal similar to that of Z. I think Z need to start reviewing what is in the box and not add fancy cables and tips when he make his judgements. Or at least also tell what experience he get with what's in the box.
That is why he still recommends the Tin T2s
Hi everyone! I recently got my KZ Z10 pro straight from Aliexpress. The brown wire that came along with it is not very prone to tangling as these reviews are saying. I guess they have updated the cables since their first release!
I got it from Amazon this week and mine tangles a ton its horrible
Edit: I got the cable in the description 2pin 0.78mm and it never tangles any more its a godsend
@Galen Wiswell lol.
Thank you for this review...I will purchase this..
Bought Tin T2 for about 33$ in my country....ZS10 Pro about 38$....Will purchase it later on..
Using it with Fiio E10...Good enough i guess..
I almost agree with everything Z says in this video. I have both the T2 and the ZS10 Pro - the T2 is a "smooth" option - but it's smooth because it is rounded out in so many areas - at the expense of fidelity of sound. The ZS10 Pro with stock tips is fairly hot tonally - but the detail, clarity, imaging, etc. is fantastic. I put some Xelastic tips on them & it cuts that hot tonality down to nothing. They're an absolute pleasure to listen to. I have some $200 Mee Audio Pinnacle P1's; the ZS10 Pro outperforms them in every single category hands down. T2 is a good IEM, it really sounds nice! ZS10 Pro sounds better. If you have to choose, get ZS10 pro.
I have almost no bass. Do you need to change the tips for that too?
Amazon had a $5 coupon on these at the time this video was released. Got them with the microphone for USD44.99
I bought mine with that coupon last week. Now, KZ has released the ZSX Terminator. I receive those today.
Mr. saves here xD
"Buy not crap headphone cables"
Well said. Honestly, decent-good-great cables won't change your Headphones/Earphones, but they have less-no microphonics, look better, feel better, and for IEMs it makes them more comfortable. Also bad cables will make CAN make your sound be really weird, tried some dollerama cables and they legit can ruin sound.
Damn it, ordered the blue ones, thanks man
I never ever ever comment on videos but... this guy is really entertaining and fun plus the way he describes well, he just sold me the earphones. All doubts gone.
I'll just watch any of his videos just for entertaining.
Marvelous job.
Could you review KZ ZSX terminator comparing it with ZS10 pro? Thank you!
I just bought these. And I gotta say, I love them. They get a bit Sibilant at times but I don't notice it too much. I never knew earphones could be so detailed and clear. A good listening experience when I'm away from my DT-880's.
And these KZ ZS10 pros sound much better than my Audio Technica M20x headphones. (I just didn't expect earphones to be able to compete with dedicated headphones)
My only gripe is that these are uncomfortable if you like to sleep on your side while listening to them.
Have had these for a long time I just watched to relax myself lol, they are detailed but my main gripe is the 10k peak these things have. It made me realize my sensitivity to 10k, but EQing this is a delight.
@@thenarrator1921 I imagine. I have to make sure not to turn my volume all the way up on my phone or they start getting really sibilant. As long as I keep it down it's all fine and dandy.
I know the app I use has an EQ, but it's just a basic one with only a select amount of bands to adjust. I'd love to turn up my volume without nastiness.
What’s the best aftermarket earbud cable with a microphone?
Oh yes, I'm loving these, so good. Got the Tin T2's and Tin P1's, these have that extra bass and like the balance.

Edit: I actually think the ZS10 pro has a wider soundstage than the tin t2. I may be crazy but while gaming with these I found it way easier to tell exactly where the enemy was vs the tin t2
My grandson stole my Tin T2’s . Just found my new IEM’s... cheers Z!
That wallpaper is kinda uh...Neat
Just made the decision to get the T2's. Now I have to get this instead! Great review
Why not both? Variety is the spice of life.
Been listening to the 10s and the T2 again after a while, while the 10s have a deeper base (at least on my ifi BL), the T2 have a more rounded sound with no spikes. It's the T2 for me.
Best review ever. Best 50 $ i have ever spent. They are really incredible. Thanks for the suggestion Z
Watching this video from my tin t2 that just arrived
The tin t2 is on a different level when it comes to sound stage and imaging with clear mid and lows its perfect for gaming and music in general.
While the ZS10 pro sound like a perfect pop music iem
I think i will buy the ZS10 pro as well but i want to stick with Tin t2 for now ^^
So you think t2 is better for person who has first time with IEM and want to use them in general purpose
I've had those for a year now, they were always good, but I never felt like they are amazing, I was using silicone tips the whole time, man what a mistake, received my first memory foam tips yesterday, night and day difference, the bass is not as intrusive now, but a lot tighter, the sound is more clear in general, plus they isolate better so I can focus on the sound better, somehow they even made the sound stage wider (probably because with silicone tips, the end of the headphone went right in there, with those it's more recessed)
In general, I cannot imagine even needing better headphones now, before they felt inferior the the MSR7 I also have, now I feel like selling those, as the only benefit they serve at this point is long term comfort.
"Hu HAA! Practice with me" killed me 😂😂😂
I genuinely practiced!!!😂
Z-man! Bought the Kzzs10 pro's for $47 per your recommendation and I have to say I just love these IEM. Incredible sound for under 50 bucks. I can't believe the build quality, how can the company afford to give these away for so cheap. It looks like those $500 IEM's and with detachable cables to boot. It has a such a nice balanced full sound. I'm going to get the aptX blutooth cable for it, that way I will have best of both wired/wireless worlds. It sounds better with my Earstudio E100 bluetooth receiver than my dedicated wired headphones. These destroy beatsX. I have a bad feeling that once Trump tariffs go into effect, these will become considerably more expensive. I'm almost tempted to buy another pair before shit hits the fan.
thats what is Z for you. hes a legend
Ordered just because purple.
This was not a mistake. These are fantastic.
