I'm so proud of having bought the ZS3's! They sound amazing for $7
Are the ZS3 loud? i like listening to slightly loud music
I like your honesty man..You really described it so well.thanks and God bless you
I have several cheap iems and I am sensitive to treble. My favorite overall is modded ZS3. I liked them alot when stock. Got these dense red grill away from the tip and removed the black foam off the inner tubes. More detailed sound without any harsh treble. I also have the silver no-mic cable from KZ, but I wasn't able to really point any major difference in sound.
Nice work. I really like the zs3 also, great value for money and really nice sound 👍🏼
Finally, an honest and unbiased review. Thank you. So many people bashing the zs10's for no reason calling them trash i don't get it lol
Haha thanks TruXByakuya.
Yeah I think their pretty good, not the perfect earbud I don’t think but still pretty amazing for the price.
I’m not a professional in any way, just letting people know my thoughts and hopefully it helps someone with their purchase.
Thanks for the comment, appreciate it 👍🏼
need to find them good iems to listen to those high quality Falcom soundtracks 👌
I buy both based on your review.
I Love them!
I immediately ordered kz zs10 after watching this review..
Can't wait to get my hands on them..
Thank you for making me decide which kz suits me well..
Hi, thanks for the comment and glad I could help, I hope you really like the ZS10’s
Is it good for to listen to rock music? pls help me
Hi Patrick how's the sounds?
MiChaeng Child It will sound great for rock music 👍🏼
Dede Ari Suputra, can I help with any questions?
Great video as always, is great to see a new video of you. Keep the great work.
Hey man the ZS4 recently came out and they said it's an upgrade for the ZS3. Looking forward if you're gonna review it
It’s on the way 👍🏼
Thanks bud, I bought zs10 already. I can't wait for the headphones to arrive me.
Hope you like the ZS10 👍🏼
this is Epic, this earphone is nearly good at my Razer Kraken
i really like that these have removable cable. i will definetly buy these soon.
Awesome review, man! Helped me a lot! Thank you!
my man. get em bro.
Based on your review, got KS10 for $34 on eBay.....instrument separation is incredibly detailed, easy listening for many hrs....bass was better than my ZS6....soundstage a bit less, cable sounds good, but easy to tangle, eartips are lousy, got cheap foam tips....KS10 performs even BETTER if u add it to a good quality amp/DAC ...BRINGS SOUND SIGNATURE TO A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL....just a great sounding multi driver earphone. Thanks to your insight, I am verrrrry pleased!
Great to hear, hope my video helped, yes the cable does tangle like crazy and the eartips suck.
Other than that I really like them 👍🏼
Mike S I tried an Astell & Kern AK JR DAP/amp/DAC......WITH the KS10....it really i proves the KS10 performance...as a portable amp of good quality.....it plays hi rez FLAC and other file types up to 24/192, which I just started enjoying high resolution files...which these hi rez files and the AK JR.....IMHO the KZ-KS10 pairs well with with its multiple balance armature drivers.
Nice video. I want to try those ZS10. I currently have the ATE, ZS1, HDS1, ZST (colourful), ZS3 and ES3. My favourite ones by far are the ES3 and ATE. I could never fit well the ZS3 in my ears, I just couldn't stand the vacuum effect they produce but the sound was ok, non fatiguing and somewhat bassy, but they didn't offer much detail and feel a little muddy in some tracks. The ATEs are balanced with a little prominent and punchy midbass, they offer lots of detail without being harsh. The ES3 are my favourite ones so far, they are a huge improvement over the ZSTs, they have very deep bass and offer also good sub bass, they have lots of details but they don't sound harsh like the ZST and sound feels just fuller rather than tinny in the ZSTs. You should try those ES3 too. I'd like to listen to your opinion about them.
Right now I haven't decided yet wether to buy the ZS10 or wait for the ES4 and check reviews of it since I liked so much the ES3.
Thanks mate, ok I might have to try them. The ZS3 do have a different sound to the rest of them but for what I listen to, I seem to really like them. Your opinion sounds similar to mine with the others so might have to get the ES3 and try them. Thanks for the comment 👍🏼
The zs10 is a great purchase! However I had to change the copper cable with the silver braided cable from zs6's and the bass is more prominent than it ever was from the zs6's, for those people that say that the zs10 sounds too cold or doesn't have bass, just need to change the cable. Imaging and wider sound field separation of the zs10 sounds expensive like my shure se535's and i cant tell the difference btw the two.
Cool, good info 👍🏼
good info, all those haters said zs10 is not worthy worried me
I just baught the zs3 its so good crispy sounds😍
That’s cool, glad you like them 👍🏼
Hey man, enjoying your videos, also wanna suggest for you to try TRN V20, very highly rated iem on various forums like head fi, also are made by former KZ employees, so it might be interesting to compare them to your KZ lineup. Personally I agree that ZST are too harsh, and ZS3 are the most comfortable and balanced of them all. I'm pretty cautious now about KZ new and dandy products, they all seem to suffer from a frankly amateur tuning, despite all the fancy drivers that they use.
Ok I’ll check them out.
About half people agree about the ZST and half say I’m wrong and they are amazing. Think just because people hear different and also upgrading cable and using amp etc.
If you like the ZS3 more, you will probably like the ZS10. Does have more highs than the ZS3 but not blown out like the ZST.
Will definitely look into that TRN though, thanks for the comment 👍🏼👍🏼
Hi! What about the ES4s? They are supposedly similar to the ZS10, it comes with the braided cable too and cost 3 times less. I'm torn.
Hey, yes I have a more current video with ES4, please check it out.
Let me know if you can’t find it 👍🏼👍🏼
Great review bro!
I already bought a KZ ZSR, can you tell me, how to improve ZSR sound quality.
I feel high to harsh, for me.
Thanks :D
Can try some foam tips. Also there are some ear tips out there with noise filters that stop some highs. They already have the better cable so wouldn’t really change that.
Are these amplified in anyway for your tests? Or all just plugged straight into a phone or something. I wonder if the new zs10's would benefit from some amplification because they have a much higher impedance rating compared to other kz's. Looking forward to hearing back!
I am only testing these from a phone or computer. So only the installed amp, nothing extra.
I’m sure you would get a better result from using a proper amp.
Would be interesting to see if amping the zs10's provide a noticeable difference vs zs3's which i don't believe would benefit much from any amping due to their already low impedance rating.
Hi mate liked the video, have a question for you: I own a pair of KZ ZSTs and was impressed with the sound, especially after the upgrade cable. Looking to buy the ZS10s, which cable would you buy with them for the best sound? Thanks!
I think that the cable that comes with the ZS10 is pretty good. Better than a lot of the upgrade kz cables, think that’s half why it costs more.
I think you should see what you think with the original cable. Can always test using your ZSTs cable to see what you think.
Hope this helps
CallaghanReviews Awesome news, thanks for the reply. Was only asking in order to obsessively plan ahead, I’m traveling all around at the moment 😂 cheers
Thanks for compare. Do you have any opinion kz zs10 vs cca c10 vs phb em23? I can't decide and it makes me crazy :)
I listen blues, alternative, indie generally. Which one could be best choice for these genres?
Sorry I have only tried the ZS10 from those options.
The ZS10 is my favourite of the KZ’s so I can recommend that but can’t compare to the others sorry.
I think the ZS10 is great for blues etc just because of all the separation, you will be able to hear all the difference instruments, however you way like something a little warmer sounding depending on your preference.
I was listening to some older rock and jazz with the ZS10 recently and was really good 👍🏼 sorry I can’t help more
CallaghanReviews Thanks for response. I think i will buy zs10. I hope there is no sibilance. It is important for me .
My hearing is pretty sensitive to sibilance or harsh highs too, a lot of KZ’s I don’t like for that reason.
I only recommend ZS3 ES4 and ZS10 because I think they are the best models but also they have the least highs.
@@callaghanreviews3338 Thanks a lot
Nice video frnd I would like to buy the kz zs3 is the overall build quality and driver configuration is good?
I like the ZS3, really good sound for the price and a nice build quality
Callaghan very thnx for your reply I'll buy zs3 as per your suggestion very thnx
Which model do you recommend for use by a bass player on stage? Thanks!
What are the best sounding for rap with deep bass?
I havnt tried the newer models now but I liked the ZS10. Lots of bass
You surprise mi with every video,keep up the good work and you'll hit it big
Haha thanks mate, appreciate it 😀 👍🏼
I like zsr, but zs3 is easier to listen.
Zsr, zs3 ate amn zs10 my picks.
Zsr has details, but on bad audiodevices (crappy phones or china mp3 players)
On amped source zsr is amazing cant wait to buy zs10
Thanks for this review !
Very good and to the point
Yeah I only really use with my iPhone and computer so should probably get myself an amp to get a better sound out of them. Thanks for the info 👍🏼
zsr sounds really good on my fiio e17 with -4 on bass. Really opens up the mid range and lower treble and tightens bass. With a parametric eq, you can even fix the 4k-5k dip and make these sound even better.
TruXByakuya Thanks,ill try that!
What a amazing IEM brand is!
if u could rate how much better the zs10 to zs3 is from 1 to 5 how much would it be?
I would probably rank my KZ iems like this 1. KZ-ED16 Very balanced and also very overlooked when it comes to KZ iems but these are amazing in all aspects perfect amount of bass and everything is tuned so well and they are extremely comfortable I fall asleep with these in and wake up with no discomfort because of the way they fit. 2. KZ-ED9 (interchangeable nozzles rule for a different sound) 3. KZ-ZSR I feel bad putting these last because I actually do feel these are really good I just think they are kind of clunky and uncomfortable but they do sound amazing, with a great sub and mid-bass response and are even better with some comply tips effectively making them bass cannons. I don't know maybe these can be tied for number 2 with the ed9's because they definitely have better instrument separation and clarity over the ed9's when I have the bass-centric valves in them but I just hate how uncomfortable they are and they have slightly wider tips which may cause further discomfort for people with tiny in ear canals.
3 KZ’s that I have not tried, makes me want to try more 🙈 haha
Thanks, Mike.
@@jcdm8407 I now have the AS10 and the new ZS7 and they're both amazing but the new blue ZS7 that just came out is now at the top of my list... they are simply amazing for the price they are like an upgraded ZS6 without the sibilance and amazing accurate sound with fast amazing bass. I was the first person to put in my thoughts about the ZS7 on head-fi
@@jcdm8407 The AS10 are dope because they are full Balanced armature and tuned amazingly well which gives them a nice clean and layered bass sound, and then they came out with the ZS7 shortly after with a great DD and 4 BA per headpiece and it just is amazing. You can't go wrong with either but the new ZS7 knocked my socks off. Neither are fatiguing as I use them all day and theyre both comfortable to the point i fall asleep fine with them in and wake up with no pain lol. I will always recommend comply memory foam comfort tips size 500 and small medium or large based on your ear. i feel the 500 size core fits all my KZ iem's and I personally wear a large roll them in my fingertips since they are memory foam and then they just fill in my ear for optimal sound....happy listening guys!!!!
Hi, I'm writing with the Google translator, I'm sorry and it looks weird. I'm thinking of buying a Kz, and I really do not know what to stay with. The use I am going to give you is how to monitor. Do you have an idea of how they behave as a monitor in a scenario? Does the KZ ZSR3 have good response at low frequencies? Greetings from Argentina!
That’s fine, I can understand 👍🏼
However I don’t use them as a monitor so probably cannot give you the best information. I do like the ZS3. They have a warm sound signature and fairly bassy.
I love the fit of my zs3 than my zst. question is the zs5 fit like the zs3?
No ZS5 is a lot different shape and size. There is the new ZS4 which has the same shape, haven’t tried yet.
Also the new AS10 has a fairly similar size and fit. But more expensive. Most fit well but the ZS5 is the only one that felt a lot different in fit.
@@callaghanreviews3338 thank you. Will look on those two, zs4 and zs10. I like the deep fitting of the zs3. Thank you again for the qyick reply.
My kz Zs4 are broken but I want to buy a new headphones, which is better, Kz zs5 or zstpro, I'm always listening rock or something like that
I didn’t really like either of those. I would prefer the ZS10 👍🏼
Hey man. I'm new to kz headphones and thinking of buying a pair. What should I get for ~25$? I'm mainly listening to hip hop but am also a small producer.
What about the overall plastic and cable resistance?
Any help appreciated!
Everyone hears slightly different but I find a lot of the KZ to be very bright. The ones that I enjoy listening to are ZS3 ES4 and ZS10.
Depending which currency your using for the $25 I would look into the KZ ZS10
The build and cable seem good quality. Maybe not 100% accurate for producing music though.
Can also look at the TinAudio T3 earbuds
For gaming like pubg ? Which is better?
Super Sai kz z10
Agree, get the ZS10 👍🏼 soundstage is great for the surround effect and the bass goes deep for the explosions etc in gaming
which do you prefer? es4 or zs3? i like bass
If you like a bassy earbud I think you would probably like ZS3,
Zs4 has just come out too but haven’t tried them yet. Will be interesting if it’s better again
+1 for ZS3. And they are so cheap yet great! Bought them few days ago for like 8 bucks, perfect if you're into electronic music, for the other, ''not electronic'' genres, not so great, they lack in details area.
I use the ZST's for ear monitors but the highs can get a lil harsh. Im able to adjust the volume on the highs but think im gonna try ZS3's
Yeah I would definitely check out the ZS3 if your finding that. Great budget IEM.
You could also try get one of the new copper coated braided cables. Will help with the highs of the ZST
@@callaghanreviews3338 Got the cable also mainly bcuz the original feels weak and tangles easy. My only complaint is that there isnt a clip to clip on your shirt. I just sent for the bluetooth cable also. The vocalists our praise n worship team just started using the ZST's also and love them! They say they clear sounding! Not sure what other iems they were using before but they love the ZST's
Ok, yeah not many extras with the KZ’s.
Yeah a lot of people like the ZST, but I agree with you. Everyone hears differently and has a different preference. Noticed how much when I used the NURA headphones. Tunes the headphone to your hearing and was amazed how everyone I know got a very different sound and all said their profile sounded the best and clearest.
If you think the ZST is to bright I think you will like the ZS3 👍🏼
I intend to buy one KZ to connect on my PS4 dualshock to play games, which one is the best in this case? Thanks!
Recommend the ZS10, the soundstage and separation in sounds would be great for gaming I believe and the bass goes really deep, great for gaming, explosions etc 👍🏼
Thanks bro!
Good video parcero!!!
I ownd and have tried : ATE, ZS3 , ZST PRO , ZSR , ZS5
The best for me are the ZSR, i love it ven above the zs5 , the zs5 are very detailed but have a lot of silibance im very dissapointed with the zs5.
my top:
ZSR>ZST PRO>ZS3>ATE>ZS5
I find the ZS5 the same. Upgrading the cable can help but as it comes to much sibilance for me too.
I had the zs3 for 2 years, is it worth upgrading to zs10? (I was using it with stock kable but planning on getting a bluetooth adapter cable)
I like both the ZS3 and zs10. Think if you like the ZS3 you will like the ZS10. Worth the upgrade I think 👍🏼
@@callaghanreviews3338 thank you, bought the zs10pro after I made that comment and it should arrive in a couple of days, I was very pleased with the zs3 considering the money I paid for it, it even outperformed my symphonized nrg 3.0 which is 3 times zs3's price...
How about ATE and ATE-S? what's the difference? and which one the best?
Ate is a nice earbud, bassy and warm sounding. Recommend
Ate-s is low quality and horrible ear-hook, do not recommend
I have been using kz zse which one should i buy under 15$
Which ear tips do you recommend? The ones in the link are no longer available.
Ordered my zs10, cant wait for it to arrive
Great, I hope you like it 👍🏼
i buy the rebranded one with same sound signature for $11
xStinks ..hi pls share the link
Can I ask which one is better? KZ ZS3 or KZ EDX. Thank you in advance.
Sorry I havnt tried both of these
I want to buy some kz for my lg v30. In your opinion which are the best for just listening high quality sound.
Check out my more recent video review on the best KZ 👍🏼 would probably say ZS10 but depends what your preferences are
ZS3 for basshead
And here i am being sad because i just lost my zs3 last night after having dinner with some friends :'(
The quality offered at kz's price range is impressive! Gotta get a replacement asap wew
That sucks you lost your ZS3’s
CallaghanReviews it really does! Wish i could get a new one asap. A day's never complete without a pair of KZs and some good ass music :(
Great review! Thank you much :)
hey man what should i pick amongst all of them?? i am more of a bass guy but i lost my kz zsn pro :((
any reccomendations sir??
That sucks about the ZSN’s, did you like those? I haven’t tried them. Have tried the last few.
The ZS10 have a deep bass and I think sound great.
i liked my zsn a lot. though it costs a lot cheaper than the other kzs, it sounds great.
Looking at the zs10 sound signature, they should sound bright as hell.
Are you saying they are bright or should be bright? May sound different depending on your music choice but I really like the separation and sound stage of the ZS10. Also has a pretty deep bass
At first i'm very sceptical about the shape of the earphone and afraid it would not fit my ears properly. But I bought to try one anyway(KZ ZS3). Surprisingly it's the most comfortable earphone I've ever wear and the sealing is perfect as well. The sound quality? Good clarity and bass. Sound stage for gaming? No! Might want to search other earphone or headphone for that.
You don’t like the sound quality? Or just the sound stage?
@@callaghanreviews3338 sound quality is good only for listening for music. But for gaming i have takstar hi 1200.
@@callaghanreviews3338 anyway i changed the cable with upgraded KZ silver cable for kz zs3. It sounds more clear now and don't have piercing bass anymore. But i still prever takstar hi1200 for gaming.
The LG G8s ThinQ phone's DAC will work like magic with these KZ iems.
Refreshingly honest, no frills review. I like the idea of not comparing different cables, amps, or variety of eartips on all KZ Models. I am a bit torn though...after using Ostry OS-300 treble filter eartips, copper cable, and EQu equalizer app...i have tamed the treble harshness and sibilance and love the sound...but u said soundstage and detail have i proved on ZS10 🤔🤔🤔😳😳😳....tough choice...$34-37 for ZS10 w no mic cable on AliExpress or eBay not bad, if it went down to $29-30 w no cable i would buy it. Great review enjoy all your videos mate!
Yeah I think if you were to perfect each model with cables/amp etc you might possibly get a different answer. Or maybe just make it more confusing😅
However I get a lot of questions from people who have never tried KZ’s and I think it’s good to know which is better from the start.
The ZS10 has a great range of sound, seems to have a deeper bass and the highs still go pretty bright without being to harsh.
What model are you listening to? Never used filter eartips before 🤔
Hello I have a kz zsr which the cat ate the cable, and now i "welded" it. I want to buy another cable with Mic but only option is normal one. I could not find a silver or gold plated cable with mic. What can you reccomend for me? Is it the gold/silver plated cable really better?
Apparently someone commented and told me there is no difference in some tests but I believe it does sound different with a better cable. I bought all mine at Aliexpress, is that where you were looking?
@@callaghanreviews3338 Yes i looked there but appears that they dont sell Gold/Silver cables with mic.
Oh yeah I cannot see any either. Maybe they don’t make for this model, I’ll try look around, could try the copper cables, don’t this the ZSR has this style cable, been a while since I used mine and I mix all the cables around.

What dac do you have the earphones plugged into?
Could you recomend me a in ear to be used as a stage monitor? I play mostly bass, but some guitar. I have a concern with altered pitches as you said. It can ruin my playing and let me out of tune with wront notes. I need a deep bass but also good medium response. Thank you.
I honestly don’t use them for a stage monitor, only for listening to music. So I don’t want to recommend something I don’t know.
However I believe you can’t go wrong with the zs3 if your not sure about the ZS10, it’s at a great price also. Has a nice bass, just need to make sure you get a good seal. Worth getting better eartips with any of them.
I have KZ ZS6 and I'm also a bassist although I'm still a beginner. I don't play on stage so I don't really know for your exact case.
I like those ZS6 but not too much for monitoring, there is too much bass which means that it leads me to bringing down the bass which is wrong while listening back with other headphones so I just use them for listening to music.
That’s great info, thanks for the input 👍🏼 the zs6 has more bass drivers so that’s probably where the issue is. ZS5 is the same. The others should be better for bass guitar then.
I use the EDX Pro,,they sound really amazing
which ones are good for someone just getting into IEMS?
If you want a budget one to try, would definitely recommend ZS3 or ES4. Both really good for the price.
I have a more recent video on my favourites and explains the difference of those two. Has a pic of the red/gold BA10 on the thumbnail/video image.
Another honest review!
Hello my friend.First sorry for my english.I am using kz zs 6 but this is broked I will buy earphone.And ı used 1 year zs 3.But ı dont know which earphone is better in aliexpress.Please help me my friend.I dont know order mark.I will wait ansver from you
Kz-ccc-bqeyz-yinyoo-.......... which is best (I was used only kz earphones
The BQEYZ were pretty bassy from memory and sounded pretty good. Haven’t tried the others. I really like the KZ ZS10 for a budget earbud.
Did you like the zs6 and ZS3?
I have the Kz6 and kzt models, both with white braided upgrade cables, ostry os-300 was recommended by another reviewer with its treble filter for those like me who likes bright but not harsh treble, he actually said he liked the Ostry os-200 better. I use Comply T-500 and cheaper red Chinese foam clones that work perfect.....on the KZT making it a value purchase even w upgrades. Zs6 sharp edges hurt my ears initially but i am used to it nowI used foam Complys, they give better bass, seal and sound isolation, but for extended listening not as comfortable or as good sound quality as Ostry os-300....which tend not to seal right and only recommended if you are not moving around
Ok thanks, great info.
I definitely recommend upgrading the eartips no matter what KZ’s. Like you said, definitely want to seal that bass in and even the basic foam tips soften the harshness slightly.
Definitely going to try the Ostry filter eartips.
Thanks again 👍🏼
zs3 is good but it is very uncomfortable when wearing for a while,any recommendation ?
I have heard that they can be tight or uncomfortable if you have smaller ears.
If it’s not that the only thing you can really try is different eartips, that’s probably the only thing you can try and see if that helps.
May i ask any prefer which for drummer using ? Thanksall
I’m not really sure what would be best because I’ve never really used drums. My favourite are ZS10 ZS3 ES4 so would still recommend those as the best KZ
@@callaghanreviews3338 how about zs10 for heavy metal? Is it bassy?
help me with this: i got the kz Bluetooth cable but the transmission it loses frequently. Can you recommend any Bluetooth adapter for KZ? ?
Have you got the original Bluetooth cable? I’ve heard the newer aptx cable is better but haven’t tried it myself
You ever tried to run with zs10? I might use it for sports and I want to know
I have been running with a few of the KZ’s, used with a Bluetooth adapter. Had no issues other than the Bluetooth module bouncing around. Use a true wireless now just for that reason. Find it more comfortable
@@callaghanreviews3338 it's alright with the sweat and doesn't come out of the ear mostly?
I remember it was ok. But not as good as true wireless ones Ives used. May need to adjust them while running. All depends how they fit your ears. Some people find it easy and other have trouble with fit.
@@callaghanreviews3338 Thanks for the response
Actually, I've been using kz zsn pro wired for exercise, and it's been working fine after 1.5 years later.
Which is best for 20bucks ?
What currency?
You're Strayan. Why are you saying Z as Zeeee not zed? All jokes aside, great review!
Haha maybe I watch to many American movies, thanks mate 👍🏼
Callaghan please review zs4 comparing zs3, I waiting for your answer
Currently reviewing
Thanks for another great review /roundup. I purchased the ZS3's and they should be here any day now. I would love to know which copper cable you recommend as an upgrade? Keep them coming ...noooww about those ZS10's
Hey mate, the copper cable I purchased does not connect to the ZS3 so just double check you get one with the ZS3 connection.
Should be a straighter connection, not the curved I believe.
Hope this helps
Which one has the most flat frequency response? I need a backup for my Shure SE215 and I want the closest thing to is from the KZ line.
These are probably one of the most balanced as they have brought the mids up a bit more compared to some KZ’s .
not sure how they would compare to a Shure Sound signature as I have never used any.
Just out of curiosity. How can a headphone make sound "a bit of higher pitch"?
Do you means how are certain headphones more higher pitched?
I dont understand your question. Im asking, how do headphones change pitch?
Ok I’m sorry, I don’t understand what your asking either? 😅
Did your headphone start sounding higher pitched than they did previously?
Or are you asking
how do some headphones sound higher pitches than others?
Hi which ones do you recommend for rap and bass lover
Would probably recommend ZS3 or ES4. They have more of a bassy sound. If you are sensitive with highs then the ZS3 is one of the best.
The ES4 has a little more separation and wider soundstage
CallaghanReviews thanks guy, +1 like
CallaghanReviews, what's the difference between ES4 and ZSN? which one is better? Thankyou
I haven’t tried the ZSN, sorry I can’t help with that
Hi, what is the best if you are a bass head?
I would choose the ZS10 ES4 or ZS3 if I was choosing a KZ. All have a pretty good bass as long as you get a good seal. ZS3 has the bassyest sound signature, the ZS10 probably has the deepest bass.
CallaghanReviews Thank you very muuch! u earned a new sub ;) keep doing what u do and ull reach the top in no time !!
Nice vid dude.
Thanks 👍🏼
alright! thank bro. will go for ZS3, been looking for which is really which.. thanks! hope this one is the best for heavy metal listening and smooth jazz too. thank you
Heavy metal and smooth jazz is quiet a range of music 😅 I like to listen to all genres as well. For $12AUD I think the ZS3 is a great choice 👍🏼
woah.. thanks! i'll dig this, probably would be my first time ever to use IEM, this is exciting!. thanks for sharing your opinion bro! it really helps a lot, I just ordered mine a while ago. cant wait! thank you!
Not problem mate, I hope the videos helped 👍🏼
KZ ZSR is the best
Oh yeah, got them few days ago, compared to previous ES4s and ED9s, ZSR is rockin hard, best IEMs I ever had!
Great impressions mate. Very informative. Ty.
Maybe try using contact enhancer on the cable pins that connect to the bud. Should smooth things out some. Soldering would be better; Anyone done it ?
Which is better VK1 or ZS5?
Sorry don’t think I have tried the VK1
After seeing your video I bought KZ zs10 and they are awesome, I was using Bose QC 20i & QC 25 now they are sleeping at home.
Great to hear, thanks for the comment 👍🏼
how about es4 compared to zs3?
I talk about this is some of my newer videos, check this one out

Ah cool thank you
does it better than sony earphone that come with sony walkman nwz-b183f?
Sorry I have not tried the Sony earbuds, but think the KZ will impress 👍🏼
@@callaghanreviews3338 ,zs3 sound really boom with my ruizu x50 player, especially with the flac 16bit songs😆😆😆
Good to hear , you like the ZS3?
Suggestions for gaming, KZ ZST or KZ ZS3???
I def prefer ZS3 over ZST 👍🏼
More bassy and fun sounding, the ZST’s to me have to much highs especially with electric/artificial sounds which games will have
Help me pls!
Which one have the best bass, the most loud, powerful and low?
My current favourites are ZS3 ES4 and ZS10.
What my newest review on the ES4 , has a good breakdown of the 3 and why each are good 👍🏼
Hope this helps.
For bassy ZS3
the ZS6 by far have best bass with dual DD
@@Mikenperu I thought the ate do?
What do you guys think about as10
They are pretty good, but I prefer the ZS10 over them, the highs are a little harsh for me.
Hey, can you suggest between KZ ZST and KZ ZS3? Which fit more for better experience in general genre of music?
Everyone ears different but I found the ZST to harsh with very bright highs and wound definitely recommend the ZS3 👍🏼
Which kz best for tribal lovers ?
Would go for the ZS10 or ES4 with all the separation and nice soundstage
What do u guys think of the KZ ZST pro?
Zst I believe originally came out in two colours and then they named one the ZST pro. Both similar.
For me they are too bright and the highs are harsh.
Really looking forward to the KZ ZS10s
New kz Ast is more natural sound . Close to reality and as a musician I know sound. They Very good. Good work kz
I have KZ ZS6. Previously I used HTC 10 hi-res earphone & B&O earphone that came free with my previous smartphones. I didn't like the fact that while watching UA-cam videos I can barely hear the BACKGROUND music, whereas the voice of reviewers is clearly audible. Which means it is making changes in frequencies & I can't hear thing as it meant to be. I also need to increase the volume way to much. Tested on my current non Audiophile Google Pixel phone. Treble is on higher side as well. I can also feel the sharp edges while wearing them. Audio is subjective, but now I think i should have bought KZ ZS10 instead of KZ ZS6, as the price difference was very less at that time. Unluckily KZ ZS10 was only available for pre-order & I didn't wanted to wait.
If anyone is reading my above comments I m not saying it is bad by any means. Sound quality is improving day by day & treble is getting bearable & smooth. I m using the silver cable. KZ ZS6 was the top flagship earphone of KZ before the launch of ZS10. Maybe my current smartphone(Google Pixel) is not getting the best out of them. ZS6 is definitely better than my HTC hires & B&O earphone. I wish I had my V20 or HTC 10 to test this wonderful KZ ZS6 IEM. I think comfort wise ZS10 is good, cause it has round curvier shape unlike ZS6 & also it is the current flagship earphone of KZ, so maybe it has the best sound quality KZ can offer.
I find a few of the KZ’s to have harsh highs also. I also only play using my phone, an iPhone so probably don’t get full potential. I haven’t tried the zs6 but have the ZS5 and find the highs way to harsh with standard cable. The ZS10 is definitely less harsh
but also it does start with an upgraded cable. I like the sound and playing straight from my phone
which kz does have volume rack in it coz,i will buy that one..
Sorry I don’t know what volume rack is
volume controller i mean
@@callaghanreviews3338 volume controller to manage the music
Every KZ has the option for the inline control 👍🏼👍🏼 just double check when you buy because there is (with or without) options.
Callaghan zs6 vs zs3 which is your choice
I haven’t tried the ZS6 but I have the ZS5 which is meant to sound similar.
And I prefer the ZS3 over the ZS5. The highs on the ZS5 are to harsh for me
Sorry can’t help more
Callaghan thanks for your information
which is good for rock music? pls help :)
Rock should sound good on the KZ’s, still recommend the same one. ZS10 if you can afford or ZS3 or ES4
@@callaghanreviews3338 I listen to songs over the phone. They don't recommend the ZS10 for the phone. Are you sure?
I only use my phone too, I wouldn’t recommend a lot of them with phone, zst zs5 zs6 AS10 ba10 ZSR all these have hash highs for me, and I don’t enjoy them.
Those are the 3 I like. ZS10 ES4 ZS3, would pretty much throw out all the others because I don’t enjoy listening to them all. My ears are sensitive to harsh highs though and everyone does hear slightly different.
I believe the ZS10 with a good seal in the ear sounds amazing, crazy amount of separation and wide sound stage should sound great with rock because will help seperate all the instruments giving a cool experience.
Hope that helps. Everyone does have different preferences but have had a lot of people comment in saying they had similar experiences with these 3 earbuds
Which one is good for my OnePlus6
I would recommend the same for any device, shouldn’t be too different.
ZS10
ES4
ZS3
Which is better, zst pro or es4?
I havnt tried the es4
I have the ZST pro but not a big fan, highs are blown out for me, to harsh
How can you compare with the sound stage on zsr?
which foam tips do you suggest?
I haven’t bought any in a while but the ones I’ve bought on Aliexpress have been good.
Try find shorter ones. Some can be to long when your looking for budget one.
I also found the coloured ones were a better texture to some of the black ones.
KZ and TRN have some on there that look pretty good for the price
@@callaghanreviews3338 Thanks so much!
i have kz zs3 & kz zsr, i like kz zsr..nice video , tks
