Wow,your reviews are actually way better than most of the famous UA-camrs out there,I am a fan for life.❤ You deserve a lot more subs man👌❤😎 11/10 Recommended ❤😎
First impressions. AS10 and ZS10 sound really great. With Oehlbach Usb Bridge (dac) and Ifi Iematch they sound even better. I bought Comply tips, because the standard tips won't stay in my ears. Because the lows, mids & highs have there own drivers, one doesn't bleed into the other. Everything is well defined. They still don't have the resolution of my highend headphones. The AS10 bass is fast and not to elevated. The ZS10 bass is boosted and a bit boomy/not precise. Both sound V-shaped as mentioned. And as mentioned in the review the ZS10 has a wider stereo image than the AS10, which results in a better separation of instruments. The AS10 is more sensitive/efficient than the ZS10. I enjoy them both.
Super* Review The Starline tips KZ supplies don’t fit me at all. Sony Hybrids work well for me. The tips BGVP and TRN supplies are very close to the Hybrids.
@@1A_B_C1 Don't bother with either. ZS10 PRO is the newer model which is a big improvement. AS12 is the newer model and DESTROYS the AS10 in every possible way. Depends on what you want. Fun....or something closer to accurate.
Just got my KZ AS10, like yesterday. You are right ZS10 have these nice attitude with audio clarity but it lacks bass and just as you said. Meanwhile, AS10, is a guacamole expensive but they really fixed almost every aspect the ZS10 missed.
@@lIVlChaOs0829 good to know man... I ordered the as10 last week. I have the zs10. Pretty good earphones with good bass but sadly the fit ain't good on my ears and it gives me pain on the back side of my earlobe when listening for prolonged periods.
L shaped connectors are a plus to me. Straight connectors look like they're just asking to bend and snap in your pockets when you sit, and pockets seem to be getting smaller every year which is extremely frustrating...
Thanks dude, you did a great job by comparing ZS10 and AS10, I was about to buy one of them, but couldn't decide which one. I will buy AS10 as you recommended. Thanks a lot!
@@cmbtechies9178 i may be Late, but I have heard both the AS10 and ZS10 and can confirm that what Oluv's Gadgets is stating is completely true. Compared to AirPods Pro the ZS10 has way too much upper bass and a completely grainy treble response. Don't buy this overrated shit and buy the Sony MH1 instead, they completely blow away this garbage.
I bought the ZS-10, before I realized there was a model above. I've been into audio for 50 years and have owned some pretty great gear. I think they sound pretty damn good. Plenty of bass and I don't notice a tipped up high. The mids maybe a bit scooped, but that is not a bad thing IMO. I ran a frequency test tone sweep and I could hear down to 25hz, so they don't lack bass response. Are they a Westone clone for a 10th price? No but they kill my $150 pro Shure in-ears. For me they fit great. As primary use is for in-ear monitors for live music, I like the over the ear wire thing. Allows the cable to go down the back into the monitor receiver. I do prefer the robust single pin connector on the Shure vs the fragile 2 pin connector on these. Since they are so cheap, I'm gonna get the AS10 and see if even better. In general, I'd say KZ knocked it out out the park. These crush typical consumer in ears.
Thank man bought my AS10 because of your review and they really sound really really good on hard rock genres, pop music and hiphop . Damn this is a beast. The bass is just amazing (fast acurate and rumbly) and i really like the highs of these compared to my zst. Listening to eminems Rap God and i was really pleased.
Thanks for your opinion i know for sure you didn't get paid for this bus i saw videos on UA-cam say that how any body with good listening would say that this kz is good i dont know i want to order them but i want to hear from consumer like me
It's sad that so many people think this garbage sounds anything good. Even a Sony MH1 sounds better than the AS10 or ZS10, which is completely ridiculous. Watch Oluv's Gadgets
Some good foam tips help get a little more bass from the ZS10s, but in general it's too low for me. The clarity and quality however is amazing. Every sound and instrument clear and present. Even "background" instruments seem to come to the front.
the included eartips on the ZS10s is shyte. I had to use my broken JBL earphones eartips just to be able to get a good fit in my ear and have a good bass. His review is on point that the eartips are not secure and could possibly be lost because it lacks the ridges, now my problem is how on earth I would make my JBL eartips locked firmly with the earphones since everytime I remove it from my ear, the eartips is left on my ear. My JBL earphones has this ridges that makes the eartips secure in place and lock em with the earphones, the ZS10s for one doesn't have that. Ugggh. It sounds good so long as its firmly in the ear.The included eartips and even the spares are shyte. I am now looking for my other JBL eartips as im pretty sure I'd be losing my current JBL eartips on this IEM.
Johnny Crypto is the highs really harsh? im getting one and i listen to music with lot of intense highs (mostly hardstyle and trance) so him saying the highs are piercing is scaring me
Everyone is saying the sound from ZS10 seems reccessed. If I am gonna use it with a basic android phone (Redmi 4) will it be a problem? Everyone is saying its harder to drive.
@@smolbo1 Thank you what do you think about bass of it. Not dup dup beat bass but that background mmmmmmm kinda bass you see in hip-hop songs like love me drake etc.,
I use the zs5 with my note8 and tidal. At first it was shrill and pearcing. After a month the sound became insanly good! They have some flows but some vocals sound insanly holographic with the zs5. With some tracks the sound is outrageously good and the soundstage is amaizing! Still sometimes there are flaws like compression specially on the very high freq. , "small" instruments and bad tonality. Still usually it sounds good or crazy good. Its not worm or soft sound. Its bright.
Nice review. I did however wait to the very end to see if you were going to mention the KZ AS10 were balanced item. It is for that reason I will be purchasing them. I wanted a reasonable price pair of iem to play on my Pioneer XDP-30r which has a 2.5mm balance output.
About the hooks: When you say you dont need the to secure the fit, you very obviously are not a frequent runner. When you run a couple of miles, you will have to press them in over and over again because they will come out through the constant sudden pulls on the cable. It also could pull out the connector over time. When your ears get hot and sweaty and waxy, its even easier for the to slip out because of reduced friction. So the hooks are very very helpful. Plus you can just cut that plastic open and pull it of the cable if you really dont need them. But i would rather have the choice.
Not sure what I said in this video, but I definitely prefer having hooks, I just don't like having to mold the metal hooks -- I prefer the hooks to be pre-formed. Also, I don't think I would ever run with IEMs.
I like the stiff wire because it damps out noise from wire handling, or at least it can. Give the SpinFit ear tips a try. When removing the IEM, leave the music playing so you can tell when you have broken the seal. Push the IEM up, down, front or back until you loose the bass. Then you can pull them out with minimal risk of leaving the tips in your ear. Keep up the good work. I love my ZSR's IEM's, but skip the early Bluetooth cables (those without APTX). They have poor range, poor runtime, dropout issues where other such modules play just fine and just do not have the quality of KZ's IEM's.
The balanced armature drivers generally cover a smaller range of the spectrum (so having a few helps cover the spectrum), and do not actually "move air" like a typical speaker. The dynamic driver will perform better in combination with all these balanced armature drivers because the one dynamic driver can focus on being a subwoofer. In theory, you will have less distortion because the dynamic driver can focus on what it does well.
@@surprisedpotato if the AS10/ZS10 are intended to be IEM's, there are many things wrong with it. Here's a list: -They have way too much upper bass (100-400Hz), but then somehow lack response at 1kHz by a lot -There's a weird boost at 3-5 kHz, exceeding the target response completely -Treble response is extremely grainy with many peaks in the highs (especially at 5, 7 and 12 kHz) -The drivers are not in phase; This may be expectable, but can easily be fixed from KZ's side Rtings has provided some frequency response measurements of both these Chi-Fi headphones, it is worth to be looked up. All in all, both the AS10 and ZS10 sound unpleasant, grainy, boomy, unnatural and dry when compared to a real monitors, like the in ear Etymotic ER4's or and over ear HD600s with the Sonarworks profile. What gets me the most is, that the 10$ Sony MH-1 from almost 10 years ago have a much better sound than this. It has much more sparkle, not as boomy, and almost no grainy response at all. Of course they are not perfect either, but completely blow away all this KZ crap. Don't waste your money guys!
I own both the Tin Audio T2 and the Zs10’s and I think the ZS10s have a great sound stage and are nice for watching movies, but they sound muddy as hell to me, very unexciting to listen to. I love my T2’s for audio books and they sound incredible with plugged ports.
You don't know what a BA transducer is and you had just heard them today for the first time, yet you are reviewing them. I am definitely going to consider your opinion.
The nice thing about the loop is if you're a musician and are using them as In Ear Monitors the hooks are nice to keep the wires behind you and out of the way.
@@SuperReview I own the KZ AS10s, and I swapped from the Shure SE215s to these, and I prefer them. Obviously the sound is better due to the 5 drivers, but they are quite comfortable as well. I'm considering swapping out the inserts for foam ones as I've heard it helps with the fit and with noise cancellation. I play guitar and use a Helix straight into FOH so I have no amp on stage. The AS10s give me a much truer sound than the Shures were giving me, with less harsh highs and no break up.
Awesome! I’ve had 4 different pairs of KZs but the Zs10 was the highest I had. And they would NOT stay in my ears. Kept falling out and was impossible to have a good seal. Even with good foam tips. The As10 sounds exciting but I’ve been hesitant because of the fitment of the Zs10s since they both seem large. Do the AS10 really fit that much better? Have you tried foam tips since then?
Final E2000 is a smoother sound with more natural tonality, but maybe a bit warm and relaxed -- the AS10 seems a bit more fun. But for fit, I definitely prefer the E2000.
I have owned both the AS10 and ZS10. The AS10'S do have a noticeable hiss when no music is being played. But that is my only complaint. Great IEM for musicians.
Gaaadddd! Big fan of KZ especially at the price point but them CONNECTOR PINS though! I've had one that snapped. they're easily bent, get pulls off way to easily when their worn in and it's practically impossible to reinsert them in low light scenarios.
The wire part on the cable is more when you use is as an in-ear monitor you don't want it falling out and you really need those especially when you run the cable down the back.
I get it, I just think it's unnecessary -- when the buds get a good seal, they're not falling out, and frankly the moldable wire holds worse IMO than pre-curved wires like on the TRN V80.
I got the ZSAs. I like them. First high end ear bud I have ever purchased. I am not happy with the seal of the ear tips. Slip out all the time. When you try to push them in it is uncomfortable. I have ordered some foam ear tips from Comply Foam tips. I am hoping that these new tips perform as promised and seal the sound and stay in a long time.
Hi friend! I've bought this KZ earphones, so it's my first experience using this brand. My doubt is... When I am using these earphones I notice a background noise, like a rain. That happens when I set the volume less than 40 percent, being this more annoying at lower volume. I don't know if it is normal, I'm using these earphones by first time and I'm trying to burn in them as recommended (starting with low volume). I appreciate your help, your opinion based on your experience. Thank you so much!
What are you playing them on? The AS10 is a sensitive earphone and will hiss if your player's output isn't super clean. Even my Walkman hisses a bit with them.
@@SuperReview Well, my cellphone is brand new, it has few months. I am using these earphones for classic music so far. Also, I'm trying to burn in them as recommended, being careful. The problem is not a hiss sound, is like a soft rain when I'm playing music at low volume (less than 40 percent). I'm confused. Thank you so much for replaying
I found a pair of nice sounding ear buds from Amazon for $16 and i had the ear tips get stuck in my ear 3 times so i ended up putting a dab of super glue because I didn't want it to get stuck in there. My son is a worship guitarist and he uses Sure SE 215 IEM with 1 Armature Driver and those ran about $100 so I am going to tell him about these 5 driver ones you demoed, $70 is pretty cheap because 5 armature driver's can run you a good starting price of about $1,500.
If you wrap the headphones around three fingers while holding the iems in your finger and thumb and store like that they won't tangle when you pull them out of a case by the iem.
I heard the ZSA's are the best KZ's for people with small ears. I've always had to use the smallest tips from any brand and still usually suffer ear pain or them falling out. Would you agree the ZSA's would be the best option for me?
The ZSAs are the smallest KZs I have. BUT the stems on the ZSAs seem about the same size as the stems on other KZs -- the stem is the part that fits into your ear canal. If you're looking for a headphone with a really narrow stem, you might look at the Final E2000 or the NuForce EDC3.
My friend bought me, for my b-day, the ZS10...but I asked for the AS10. So he also bought the AS10. Now I am breaking them in for another 24 hours...48 total. These iems are very sensitive. I hear a lots of hiss with my Dragonfly Black and a little hiss with my Oehlbach usb bridge. And they are not useable with my Rupert Neve RNHP.
I have a question for you as one who has used a lot of kz company headphones. Which model do you most recommend (I like to hear pop rock and hip-hop).The price does not matter to me
using the AS10 as a guitar player and love them. However, is there a way to improve the memory part of the cable? Maybe a replacement cable? To me they aren't rigid enough, the lose their "memory" too easily and don't stay where they should
Yeah, it's annoying that the memory gets undone all the time. I got this cable: www.aliexpress.com/item/New-Yinyoo-H3-H5-8-Core-Upgraded-Silver-Plated-Earphone-Cable-With-MMCX-2pin-For-Yinyoo/32849066071.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.32d84c4dcFvu8a
Should I buy the AS10s or the ZS10s? I listen to music daily and have spent most of the day just listening to music. Both seem really good, but I don't know which one to buy
hi again i bought the tin p1...i enjoy it i like buy a iem from kz in your opinion kz zs10pro or as10 or as12??? i like forward midrange neautral sound punchi bass/don't like boomby good sound sepration
Did you break these in? Also the default tips seal poorly for me. They were very syblant until I got real tips and 48 + hours of break in. Seal allowed lower volumes.
I listened to them for about a week, but definitely did not get 48+ hours of break-in. The default small tips work well for me, but they're not the softest silicone -- I think a softer silicone seals better. Just got some Final E2000s with really good-sealing tips.
I am looking for a headphone with bass that punches like beats by dre but with more synth and sub bass and mid bass rumbling, combined with crystal clear quality accross the board, with pristinely clear highs but treble shouldnt be higher the S Think Powerbeats 3/Monster punch, Improved Clarity of KZ ZS10 Pro, with rumbling bass from some other headphone which does that well. Any suggestions? I only use IEM/Ear Buds never on ear or over ear as I can never stand wearing those.
@@SuperReview I wonder what to buy Zs10 or zs10 pro They differ in something other than their appearance? Maybe there is something different for this price on aliexpress? Thank you in advance for your answer
I had the same fitting issues with my Kz zs10 but later i shifted to the large eartips on it that comes with it in the box and it all worked out pretty too damn well...i think now its the best fitting earbuds that i ever used before it..but ya it totally depends on different ear shapes..but for me its the best🤣👍
Hey I’ve had a pair of KZ ZS10’s and after 3 months the right earbud’s base driver uhh thing stop working. Did your pair go through this after a short user period?
@@LOOPTRIGGER Gotcha. To be clear, I have never been a performer, so I don't really know the requirements of one, but I would guess that the AS10s are a bit too far from neutral to be ideal for monitoring.
Very different sounds -- the T2 is very mid-forward, light-sounding headphone. The AS10 has mids recessed, much warmer sound. Which one I prefer depends on which music I'm listening to. I expect most people would prefer the AS10.
Skip forward to 2020 and the ZS10 PRO is 38 bucks! These aren't made to listen to Metallica they are designed to be IEM's for live performances. I have used the ZS10 Pro and they are excellent for that. Maybe the AS10 would be ok for a bass player.
I have ordered KZ AS10. I want to know will there be a sound quality difference if I use this IEM with my android (one plus 6) instead of DAP? If yes then how much difference?
If u are talking about good quality daps,the difference is a lot noticeable. And oneplus6 isn't a good audio phone like lg v20.v20 will be a bit comparable to daps.my advice would be to get a decent quality headphone amp.
You mention the connector style when you open up the more expensive pair and that's the problem I have with KZs! I use these on my electronic drum kit and sometimes during the playing the Cable pop out! Very annoying although I will say the sound quality is quite good for the price!
@@SuperReview Interesting. Old school. I gave up on carrying separate music players now that smartphones can reproduce HQ audio files. I do have an AudioQuest Dragonfly Cobalt DAC/AMP connected to smartphone and laptop. Highly recommend. Superb SQ. Sounds better than any FIIO DAC/AMP I've heard and is smaller then a usb stick drive. It can even drive my Senn HD660s beautifully. But it's pricey.
@@SuperReview I ordered the KSC75X from Drop, considering you, Z, and Joshua Valour reccomend these. I like the midnight blue version over the silver on Amazon. Plus, it comes with a mic. For $17 w/ free shipping, can't beat it. Btw, I bought the KZ ZS10 Pro. They are GREAT.
@@MrAwesomeaditya I got the wrong package, es4 instead of as10. I returned the es4 and got an as06 instead, I'm happy with it. Sound is similar to as10, its cheaper and comes with that better cable.
Hey there guys, so I bought these and despite everyone calling them like almost perfect and great tuning whatsoever, these doesn't sound really good... High frequencies are too high in volume as for low frequencies are too low and barely hear-able... if you are thinking of getting these to master your music tracks look elsewhere.
It's annoying and difficult to decide which IEM should i buy. Is there any sibilance in ZS10? My earrings are sensetive. I can't decide ZS10 or Cca c10. Both of them have 5 drivers.
@@SuperReview Generally i listen alternative, blues, acoustic. I looking for IEM under 40 dollars and as i see c10 and zs10 are seems good but if you have other advise, it would be great. Thanks
im a headphone noob that listens metal a lot. So my question is if i bought as10's would that bass get in way of guitar riffs and vocal? for example in for whom the bell tolls there is an incredible bass line but i really love guitars and vocal too am i gonna be able to hear those well?
@@SuperReview sorry for all the trouble im causing but i meant metallica's version of it xD btw i looked it up and kz zsn pro seems like a good option and its much cheeper. Would you recommend it for metal genre? if you want specific songs i would say metallica classics like master of puppets or any other heavy metal song that comes to your mind. But if you dont have time for it i completely understand 👍
I personally prefer two other earphones roughly in this price range: Blon BL03 and Tin Hifi T2 Plus. I tried out some Metallica on both, for my tastes, I like the clarity and speed on the T2 Plus over the Blon, but if you're allergic to guitar sharpness you might prefer the warmer presentation of the Blon.
I don't think there's a significant difference in soundstage between them. The biggest difference is the AS10 is a warmer, more laid-back listen, while the ZS10 is a bit more forward with the upper mids and more energetic. I might actually prefer the sound of the ZS10, but they don't stay in ears, so I prefer the AS10.
The stems on the ZS10 are a bit bulkier than the steps on the AS10 -- the outer shells seem to be the exact same shape. If comparing just sound quality, they're both very good, just different styles of sound. Some people will prefer one, some will prefer the other.
I just got a pair of KZ AS-10 and impressed by its deep bass. But my pair seems have very high sensitivity. I only only need several clicks of volume on my MacBook to make it sounds really loud. Could anyone also have KZ AS-10 verify it is normal for this IEM? Thanks 😊
Nothing of this is what you would want. Get the cheap Sony MH1 for 10$, they completely blow away this ZS10 or AS10 garbage. If you want to know more watch the AS10 video from "Oluv's Gadgets"
first saw this today.. so it might be too late.. but.. AS10s are way more sibilant than the shure.. but also have way better and solid bass response.. as a vocalist i would recommend the Shure.. just take the SE215.. the 315 are not worth the extra money.. the fit of the AS/ZS 10 i also not good in most ears.. if youre a drummer: get the cheap ZS3 !.. get em while you can.. I use these almost in every studio session.. And I have expensive Shures also.. but the ZS3 are just more fun .. and the bass (low toms and kick) is just way easier to hear.
just gave away my ZS10 for free.. so sibilant it makes my ears bleed... always try most new chi-fi IEMs.. and still KZ ZS3 kick ass.. added an updated cable (the same as on ZS/AS 10) and no contest.. best ever.. way better than those in this test.. yup.. the low end is not as deep, and yes the soundstage is smaller.. but as a drummer in the studio.. these are the ones to get.. getting a set of V80 soon.. but my guess is i will find them way to sibilant also.. but just to be fair.. I will try them too.. dont say I dont try! ;-)

First impressions.
AS10 and ZS10 sound really great. With Oehlbach Usb Bridge (dac) and Ifi Iematch they sound even better. I bought Comply tips, because the standard tips won't stay in my ears.
Because the lows, mids & highs have there own drivers, one doesn't bleed into the other. Everything is well defined. They still don't have the resolution of my highend headphones.
The AS10 bass is fast and not to elevated. The ZS10 bass is boosted and a bit boomy/not precise. Both sound V-shaped as mentioned. And as mentioned in the review the ZS10 has a wider stereo image than the AS10, which results in a better separation of instruments. The AS10 is more sensitive/efficient than the ZS10.
I enjoy them both.
I should try Comply tips on the ZS10, they never stayed in my ears.

This man needs more subscribers, we gotta do him justice
I bought the ZS-10, before I realized there was a model above. I've been into audio for 50 years and have owned some pretty great gear. I think they sound pretty damn good. Plenty of bass and I don't notice a tipped up high. The mids maybe a bit scooped, but that is not a bad thing IMO. I ran a frequency test tone sweep and I could hear down to 25hz, so they don't lack bass response. Are they a Westone clone for a 10th price? No but they kill my $150 pro Shure in-ears. For me they fit great. As primary use is for in-ear monitors for live music, I like the over the ear wire thing. Allows the cable to go down the back into the monitor receiver. I do prefer the robust single pin connector on the Shure vs the fragile 2 pin connector on these. Since they are so cheap, I'm gonna get the AS10 and see if even better. In general, I'd say KZ knocked it out out the park. These crush typical consumer in ears.
Thank man bought my AS10 because of your review and they really sound really really good on hard rock genres, pop music and hiphop . Damn this is a beast. The bass is just amazing (fast acurate and rumbly) and i really like the highs of these compared to my zst. Listening to eminems Rap God and i was really pleased.
Thanks for your opinion i know for sure you didn't get paid for this bus i saw videos on UA-cam say that how any body with good listening would say that this kz is good i dont know i want to order them but i want to hear from consumer like me
It's sad that so many people think this garbage sounds anything good. Even a Sony MH1 sounds better than the AS10 or ZS10, which is completely ridiculous. Watch Oluv's Gadgets
@@jblbasstester6198 chill Oluv
Some good foam tips help get a little more bass from the ZS10s, but in general it's too low for me. The clarity and quality however is amazing. Every sound and instrument clear and present. Even "background" instruments seem to come to the front.
the included eartips on the ZS10s is shyte. I had to use my broken JBL earphones eartips just to be able to get a good fit in my ear and have a good bass. His review is on point that the eartips are not secure and could possibly be lost because it lacks the ridges, now my problem is how on earth I would make my JBL eartips locked firmly with the earphones since everytime I remove it from my ear, the eartips is left on my ear. My JBL earphones has this ridges that makes the eartips secure in place and lock em with the earphones, the ZS10s for one doesn't have that. Ugggh. It sounds good so long as its firmly in the ear.The included eartips and even the spares are shyte. I am now looking for my other JBL eartips as im pretty sure I'd be losing my current JBL eartips on this IEM.
Johnny Crypto is the highs really harsh? im getting one and i listen to music with lot of intense highs (mostly hardstyle and trance) so him saying the highs are piercing is scaring me
Everyone is saying the sound from ZS10 seems reccessed. If I am gonna use it with a basic android phone (Redmi 4) will it be a problem? Everyone is saying its harder to drive.
Healthy Tamilnadu i drive mine from an iphone even with lightning to jack converter and eqing i dont even need to go anywhere near the full volume
@@smolbo1 Thank you what do you think about bass of it. Not dup dup beat bass but that background mmmmmmm kinda bass you see in hip-hop songs like love me drake etc.,
You helped me decide on the ZSA. Thnx!
I use the zs5 with my note8 and tidal. At first it was shrill and pearcing. After a month the sound became insanly good! They have some flows but some vocals sound insanly holographic with the zs5. With some tracks the sound is outrageously good and the soundstage is amaizing!
Still sometimes there are flaws like compression specially on the very high freq. , "small" instruments and bad tonality. Still usually it sounds good or crazy good.
Its not worm or soft sound. Its bright.
*Kz Zs10 sound very good at middle level of volume if we talk about bass frequency*
Nice review. I did however wait to the very end to see if you were going to mention the KZ AS10 were balanced item. It is for that reason I will be purchasing them. I wanted a reasonable price pair of iem to play on my Pioneer XDP-30r which has a 2.5mm balance output.
I don't think they come with a balanced cable stock, but most earphones you can pair with a balanced cable.
TFZ T2 or TIN AUDIO T3 are pretty good options too, I prefer those than KZs, the downside is they doesn't have microphones though.
From all the audio reviews ive watched you give the most detail, and answer all questions i have in mind. Keep it up dude
If you ever have any other questions, feel free to drop it in comments 👍
About the hooks: When you say you dont need the to secure the fit, you very obviously are not a frequent runner. When you run a couple of miles, you will have to press them in over and over again because they will come out through the constant sudden pulls on the cable. It also could pull out the connector over time. When your ears get hot and sweaty and waxy, its even easier for the to slip out because of reduced friction. So the hooks are very very helpful. Plus you can just cut that plastic open and pull it of the cable if you really dont need them. But i would rather have the choice.
Not sure what I said in this video, but I definitely prefer having hooks, I just don't like having to mold the metal hooks -- I prefer the hooks to be pre-formed.
Also, I don't think I would ever run with IEMs.
I like the stiff wire because it damps out noise from wire handling, or at least it can. Give the SpinFit ear tips a try. When removing the IEM, leave the music playing so you can tell when you have broken the seal. Push the IEM up, down, front or back until you loose the bass. Then you can pull them out with minimal risk of leaving the tips in your ear. Keep up the good work. I love my ZSR's IEM's, but skip the early Bluetooth cables (those without APTX). They have poor range, poor runtime, dropout issues where other such modules play just fine and just do not have the quality of KZ's IEM's.
The balanced armature drivers generally cover a smaller range of the spectrum (so having a few helps cover the spectrum), and do not actually "move air" like a typical speaker. The dynamic driver will perform better in combination with all these balanced armature drivers because the one dynamic driver can focus on being a subwoofer. In theory, you will have less distortion because the dynamic driver can focus on what it does well.
Got myself kz as10 and has been great paired with spinfit and comply foam,
How is the tone like bass,mids,vocals,highs etc.
Both the ZS10 and AS10 are total rubbish, but most people don't even notice it
@@jblbasstester6198 But what about it is trash?
@@surprisedpotato if the AS10/ZS10 are intended to be IEM's, there are many things wrong with it. Here's a list:
-They have way too much upper bass (100-400Hz), but then somehow lack response at 1kHz by a lot
-There's a weird boost at 3-5 kHz, exceeding the target response completely
-Treble response is extremely grainy with many peaks in the highs (especially at 5, 7 and 12 kHz)
-The drivers are not in phase; This may be expectable, but can easily be fixed from KZ's side
Rtings has provided some frequency response measurements of both these Chi-Fi headphones, it is worth to be looked up.
All in all, both the AS10 and ZS10 sound unpleasant, grainy, boomy, unnatural and dry when compared to a real monitors, like the in ear Etymotic ER4's or and over ear HD600s with the Sonarworks profile.
What gets me the most is, that the 10$ Sony MH-1 from almost 10 years ago have a much better sound than this. It has much more sparkle, not as boomy, and almost no grainy response at all. Of course they are not perfect either, but completely blow away all this KZ crap.
Don't waste your money guys!
@@jblbasstester6198 Do you have any balanced headphones you'd recommended in that case?
I own both the Tin Audio T2 and the Zs10’s and I think the ZS10s have a great sound stage and are nice for watching movies, but they sound muddy as hell to me, very unexciting to listen to. I love my T2’s for audio books and they sound incredible with plugged ports.
Been thinking bout this for a while now.. Now i know which one to buy.. As10..
only because Metallica..
Ha ha, I'm listening to Metallica right now 🤘 "Of Wolf and Man" is so dope.
@@SuperReview can't wait.. thanks again!
Hope the As10 makes the snare in st anger sound bearable 😅
IMO, the treble in the AS10 is not too sharp -- even the ZS10 treble doesn't bother me, and it's peakier than the AS10.
You don't know what a BA transducer is and you had just heard them today for the first time, yet you are reviewing them. I am definitely going to consider your opinion.
Mmm, not sure that's what I said, but OK.
I agree w you on the memory wire. I really really want to try the 10s either one. I have zs3 and the sound is amazing for the price.
Hi
Which one have the best quality zs10 pro/as10/ba10/c10 and please write why...?
The nice thing about the loop is if you're a musician and are using them as In Ear Monitors the hooks are nice to keep the wires behind you and out of the way.
Have you used monitors with pre-formed hooks (rather than moldable wires)? Are they worse than the moldable wires?
@@SuperReview I own the KZ AS10s, and I swapped from the Shure SE215s to these, and I prefer them. Obviously the sound is better due to the 5 drivers, but they are quite comfortable as well. I'm considering swapping out the inserts for foam ones as I've heard it helps with the fit and with noise cancellation. I play guitar and use a Helix straight into FOH so I have no amp on stage. The AS10s give me a much truer sound than the Shures were giving me, with less harsh highs and no break up.
Hi sir! Which one is better? KZ AS10 or KZ AS06? I like a warm sounding IEM. I like punchy bass sound. Any suggestions? Thanks! 😎
I honestly have a hard time telling them apart.
I have KZ ZS6, and I hated the memory part about the cable too.. but... after 1-2 weeks. I started to love it. i can even run with these ;)
That's a plus!
Awesome! I’ve had 4 different pairs of KZs but the Zs10 was the highest I had. And they would NOT stay in my ears. Kept falling out and was impossible to have a good seal. Even with good foam tips. The As10 sounds exciting but I’ve been hesitant because of the fitment of the Zs10s since they both seem large. Do the AS10 really fit that much better? Have you tried foam tips since then?
AS10s really do fit much better. I haven't spent much time with the ZS10s because they won't stay put, but I've used the AS10s a lot.
Hey mate! Thx for the great reviews! Do you prefer KZ AS10 over Final e2000? Can you suggest any other iem around 50-75$
Final E2000 is a smoother sound with more natural tonality, but maybe a bit warm and relaxed -- the AS10 seems a bit more fun. But for fit, I definitely prefer the E2000.
Oh, my recommendation in the price range is still Tin T2.
@@SuperReview thanks a lot! 😀
Never mind found it! Thanks man
I have owned both the AS10 and ZS10. The AS10'S do have a noticeable hiss when no music is being played. But that is my only complaint. Great IEM for musicians.
FWIW, the hiss comes from your player, the AS10s are just sensitive enough to reveal it.
Gaaadddd! Big fan of KZ especially at the price point but them CONNECTOR PINS though! I've had one that snapped. they're easily bent, get pulls off way to easily when their worn in and it's practically impossible to reinsert them in low light scenarios.
Why are you taking them apart in the dark? Some newer models like ZSN / ZSN Pro have more robust connectors.
Good review!
The wire part on the cable is more when you use is as an in-ear monitor you don't want it falling out and you really need those especially when you run the cable down the back.
I get it, I just think it's unnecessary -- when the buds get a good seal, they're not falling out, and frankly the moldable wire holds worse IMO than pre-curved wires like on the TRN V80.
Very good review. Tqvm
I got the ZSAs. I like them. First high end ear bud I have ever purchased. I am not happy with the seal of the ear tips. Slip out all the time. When you try to push them in it is uncomfortable. I have ordered some foam ear tips from Comply Foam tips. I am hoping that these new tips perform as promised and seal the sound and stay in a long time.
Follow up, any better?
What you guys recommended to me, the zs10 or the as06?
AS06 IMO.
Hi friend! I've bought this KZ earphones, so it's my first experience using this brand. My doubt is... When I am using these earphones I notice a background noise, like a rain. That happens when I set the volume less than 40 percent, being this more annoying at lower volume. I don't know if it is normal, I'm using these earphones by first time and I'm trying to burn in them as recommended (starting with low volume). I appreciate your help, your opinion based on your experience. Thank you so much!
What are you playing them on? The AS10 is a sensitive earphone and will hiss if your player's output isn't super clean. Even my Walkman hisses a bit with them.
@@SuperReview Well, my cellphone is brand new, it has few months. I am using these earphones for classic music so far. Also, I'm trying to burn in them as recommended, being careful. The problem is not a hiss sound, is like a soft rain when I'm playing music at low volume (less than 40 percent). I'm confused. Thank you so much for replaying
Interesting, that doesn't sound familiar. May be an issue with your pair.
What camera did you use to shoot this? It looks great!
Panasonic G7
I found a pair of nice sounding ear buds from Amazon for $16 and i had the ear tips get stuck in my ear 3 times so i ended up putting a dab of super glue because I didn't want it to get stuck in there. My son is a worship guitarist and he uses Sure SE 215 IEM with 1 Armature Driver and those ran about $100 so I am going to tell him about these 5 driver ones you demoed, $70 is pretty cheap because 5 armature driver's can run you a good starting price of about $1,500.
$1,500 😱
If you wrap the headphones around three fingers while holding the iems in your finger and thumb and store like that they won't tangle when you pull them out of a case by the iem.
It helps, but they still get tangled more than any other cable I own 😛
Nice video bro. Does the as10 sound good on sony daps?
Should be good on any DAP 👍
@@SuperReview sounds great! Thank:)
hi do you think the zsn pro or the ed16 are better? which ones are more balanced and with a better tone?
I heard the ZSA's are the best KZ's for people with small ears. I've always had to use the smallest tips from any brand and still usually suffer ear pain or them falling out. Would you agree the ZSA's would be the best option for me?
The ZSAs are the smallest KZs I have. BUT the stems on the ZSAs seem about the same size as the stems on other KZs -- the stem is the part that fits into your ear canal. If you're looking for a headphone with a really narrow stem, you might look at the Final E2000 or the NuForce EDC3.
y al final cual es el mejor??????
por favor podrias decirlo, no hablo ingles y no pude traducirlo
Creo que AS10 is el mejor.
ZSA es muy bueno por el dinero, pero el AS10 es mas refinado.
Is the Mic quality good on these ones? Thanks.
My friend bought me, for my b-day, the ZS10...but I asked for the AS10. So he also bought the AS10. Now I am breaking them in for another 24 hours...48 total.
These iems are very sensitive. I hear a lots of hiss with my Dragonfly Black and a little hiss with my Oehlbach usb bridge. And they are not useable with my Rupert Neve RNHP.
Definitely sensitive. AS06 is the same.
He's got it all to the talk hands and enhance the Talking Fingers
I have a question for you as one who has used a lot of kz company headphones. Which model do you most recommend (I like to hear pop rock and hip-hop).The price does not matter to me
AS10 is my favorite KZ so far.
🔥🔥 as always man
using the AS10 as a guitar player and love them. However, is there a way to improve the memory part of the cable? Maybe a replacement cable? To me they aren't rigid enough, the lose their "memory" too easily and don't stay where they should
Yeah, it's annoying that the memory gets undone all the time. I got this cable: www.aliexpress.com/item/New-Yinyoo-H3-H5-8-Core-Upgraded-Silver-Plated-Earphone-Cable-With-MMCX-2pin-For-Yinyoo/32849066071.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.32d84c4dcFvu8a

More expensive than EarPods, for sure.

Anker Soundbuds Slim review? I know you already did the Surge, but the Slim seems much better.
Well it's your fault, I just ordered a pair so I can compare them to Dudios 👍
Did you break these in? Also the default tips seal poorly for me. They were very syblant until I got real tips and 48 + hours of break in. Seal allowed lower volumes.
I listened to them for about a week, but definitely did not get 48+ hours of break-in. The default small tips work well for me, but they're not the softest silicone -- I think a softer silicone seals better. Just got some Final E2000s with really good-sealing tips.
I am looking for a headphone with bass that punches like beats by dre but with more synth and sub bass and mid bass rumbling, combined with crystal clear quality accross the board, with pristinely clear highs but treble shouldnt be higher the S
Think Powerbeats 3/Monster punch, Improved Clarity of KZ ZS10 Pro, with rumbling bass from some other headphone which does that well.
Any suggestions? I only use IEM/Ear Buds never on ear or over ear as I can never stand wearing those.
Maybe Ikko OH10.
Which have more Bass and quality as06, as10 or tennmark pro?
I haven't heard Tenmark Pro. AS06 and AS10 are hard for me to tell apart. I did a review of AS06 with some comparisons.
I wonder, how would these compare to Whizzer A15 Pro? Is there a chance for such comparison?
I hadn't heard of the Whizzers before now. Looks like they cost about 2x the AS10s. But they look pretty nice 👌

kz as10 compare to the T2?
Very different sounds -- the T2 is very mid-forward, light-sounding headphone. The AS10 has mids recessed, much warmer sound. Which one I prefer depends on which music I'm listening to. I expect most people would prefer the AS10.
Skip forward to 2020 and the ZS10 PRO is 38 bucks! These aren't made to listen to Metallica they are designed to be IEM's for live performances. I have used the ZS10 Pro and they are excellent for that. Maybe the AS10 would be ok for a bass player.
None of these sound anything good if you care about audio
I have ordered KZ AS10. I want to know will there be a sound quality difference if I use this IEM with my android (one plus 6) instead of DAP? If yes then how much difference?
I expect any difference would be minimal, but I haven't used the OnePlus.
If u are talking about good quality daps,the difference is a lot noticeable. And oneplus6 isn't a good audio phone like lg v20.v20 will be a bit comparable to daps.my advice would be to get a decent quality headphone amp.
I have that knife. It awesome. Never needs sharpening, just put another blade in it.
Dude it's the best 👍 I bought one for my dad, I like it so much.
You mention the connector style when you open up the more expensive pair and that's the problem I have with KZs! I use these on my electronic drum kit and sometimes during the playing the Cable pop out! Very annoying although I will say the sound quality is quite good for the price!

Hey there guys, so I bought these and despite everyone calling them like almost perfect and great tuning whatsoever, these doesn't sound really good... High frequencies are too high in volume as for low frequencies are too low and barely hear-able... if you are thinking of getting these to master your music tracks look elsewhere.

I personally prefer two other earphones roughly in this price range: Blon BL03 and Tin Hifi T2 Plus. I tried out some Metallica on both, for my tastes, I like the clarity and speed on the T2 Plus over the Blon, but if you're allergic to guitar sharpness you might prefer the warmer presentation of the Blon.

@@SuperReview sound is pretty warm but hits all the levels very well, I like to use the EQ to brighten them up a bit though
Can you tell me that the soundstage of the ZS10 is more than AS10? In general, which one is better?
I don't think there's a significant difference in soundstage between them. The biggest difference is the AS10 is a warmer, more laid-back listen, while the ZS10 is a bit more forward with the upper mids and more energetic. I might actually prefer the sound of the ZS10, but they don't stay in ears, so I prefer the AS10.
Super* Review The size of zs10 is more bulky? If only to compare the sound quality, zs10 is still better than as10?
The stems on the ZS10 are a bit bulkier than the steps on the AS10 -- the outer shells seem to be the exact same shape. If comparing just sound quality, they're both very good, just different styles of sound. Some people will prefer one, some will prefer the other.

Hey guys how do the AS10s compare to the Shure se215 or se315? I’m trying to decide between Shure or KZ. I’m a vocalist btw.)))))
first saw this today.. so it might be too late.. but.. AS10s are way more sibilant than the shure.. but also have way better and solid bass response.. as a vocalist i would recommend the Shure.. just take the SE215.. the 315 are not worth the extra money.. the fit of the AS/ZS 10 i also not good in most ears.. if youre a drummer: get the cheap ZS3 !.. get em while you can.. I use these almost in every studio session.. And I have expensive Shures also.. but the ZS3 are just more fun .. and the bass (low toms and kick) is just way easier to hear.
just gave away my ZS10 for free.. so sibilant it makes my ears bleed... always try most new chi-fi IEMs.. and still KZ ZS3 kick ass.. added an updated cable (the same as on ZS/AS 10) and no contest.. best ever.. way better than those in this test.. yup.. the low end is not as deep, and yes the soundstage is smaller.. but as a drummer in the studio.. these are the ones to get.. getting a set of V80 soon.. but my guess is i will find them way to sibilant also.. but just to be fair.. I will try them too.. dont say I dont try! ;-)
I didn't make any notes about ZS10 being sibilant, but definitely did with V80s. Good luck, lemme know how they are for you.
TIN T3 or Kz as16?
Zs10 or zs10 pro ? Which is better
