    Just received my unit and ordered it based on your review. I have been listening to the ZS10 Pro 2 for the past hour and I’m amazed by its potential! My favourite switch tuning setup is the UDDD! I’m surprised by the amount of bass they can offer and to be honest after enjoying the DosCinco and the SL41 (also got them based on your recommendation and others), I’ve included this KZ set into my rotation. At 50$, one of the best under 100$, for sure (at least for my type of music)

    Not sure why the ZSN Pro 2 didn't get much attention. For $14 is pretty good.
    The ZS10 Pro X has been selling for as low $18, with discount less than $15. Have one on the way. :)
    Also ordered the TRN ST7. That I have a hunch that will be shouty or have more of a metallic timbre. For second it was on sale for $20.99, $16.50 after discounts, for that price it seems worth trying. Hopefully some mods will retune it nicely. Hope Akros eventually reviews it.
    I will pass on the AS16 Pro X because I'm happy with the AS16 Pro. Prefer the extra bass driver over a tweeter driver on the X version. The OG AS16 Pro is great with Wavelets AutoEQ. I get a warm sound with still very good sound separation, not much BA timbre. Haven't found a good upgrade yet...

    I really like the ZSN Pro 2, I feel like it was the first KZ hybrid with enough polish to put it "over the top" into the realm of banger budget sets instead of just decent. I liked the Rhapsody too but maybe it's just my music (heavy metal); I felt like the driver macro-detail and transients on the ZSN Pro2 were stronger than the Rhapsody, which had better micro-detail but lost out otherwise, so I didn't keep the Rhapsody despite liking it. My other favorites are the original versions of CRA and PR2. I have the Castor as well and would like to try one of the mods you mentioned on it!

    Hi, I'm a musician and drummer, I was about to buy the as16 pro for stage monitoring, do you think it's worth investing in the as16 pro x? Does it reach more medium and high pitch than the pro, losing the bass?
    That's why I was in doubt, despite a newer model, I believe the pro works better for this purpose. What do you think?

    They apparently removed the extra bass BA on the AS16 Pro X, which I think was a mistake, it definitely often finds itself missing the bass of the AS16 Pro.
    They swung too far with the X, they needed to land somewhere between the pro X and the pro. But at least it makes the Pro X complimentary to the Pro, I tend to use it for fps gaming, but I would defo reach for the AS16 Pro for most everything else...

      I have the ZS10 Pro X and Pro 2, the Pro 2 has got slightly better bass and a good imaging but for games like Apex and Valorant, I’d recommend the Pro X since hearing footsteps is the most important part. The only bad point is that it can get a bit muddy when too much things are going on (3rd party, Bangalore ult etc) but it’s the same for 99% of IEM’s on Apex. The Pro X is the better one for gaming imo

    Typical KZ - gain some, lose some. I think they use a random generator for tuning. It does throw lucky numbers sometimes and the strategy is perform more throws (create more models).
