KZZAS 7BA+1DD in Ear Earphone 16 Unit Hybrid Technology Flagship Earphone Monitor Headphones 8Core Cable Music Sport Earphone (Without Mic, Black)

Not a sponsored review. Literally just think these things sound great. You can hear so _much_ more.First the general response curve is perfect for casual listening. I haven't tried these as on-stage IEMs yet, but I think I'm hearing a bit of a mid-dip, which may be problematic for live performers and I'm a bit concerned about compression of the dynamic range... but for casual listening these are pretty incredible.Comparing these against my Alclair Audio Dual-XBs, which I've had custom molded for my ears. I'd say these lack the absolute rock-solid distortion free bottom end my DXBs have. However, they make up for it with an unbelievably detailed top end that my 2 driver DXBs can't match. Surprised at this!I will say these matter what you have them hooked up to. I have a headphone port on my thunderbolt dock, and it's pretty trashy and introduces a lot of distortion and loses a lot of clarity. The headphone jack on my macbook sounds significantly better.

It was immediately clear to me that my pair had been opened by a previous customer and returned to the seller.Then, it was immediately clear that the previous customer hadn't known what they'd ordered in the first place.Packaging: Cheap as all get-out but branding is classy and wreaks of neo-Steve-Jobians.Ear tips: Well, almost as cheap as the packaging, but an excellent choice to throw a bone to those of us who are in DIRE NEED of good audio fast.Wire: Spectacular so far compared to the se215's I just came off of. So much easier to control the ear-tug with a simple bobby-pin on the back of your shirt collar.This is good audio cheap.You're paying for the in-ear monitors and that's it.//and a VERY unexpectedly good cable systemThese guys have cut costs in every conceivable place in the packing and "extras" in order to get you a great pair of in-ears for cheap.Keep it up KZ.Yeah, I

The very first time I put these in my ears, I thought I had wasted my money. But... you have to make sure you have the best fitting tip for quality sound. The difference between the wrong tip and the right tip are far more substantial than you'd think.I use a DAC dongle on my iPhone. I have great source material (CD quality) from my own server while out and about on my bike nearly every day. The sound is incredible. I get lost in the music. At home for 2-channel, I run a $1.5K Marantz Rcvr into a $1K Marantz amp to feed two Klipsch RP-8000 towers and 2 SPL-120 subs. I'm a pretty serious listener. But these <$100 KZ KAS IEMs give me an experience rivaling my home system. No kidding!If you're a fan of bass (and who isn't?), these provide a rich low end without the fake boomy you can get from some drivers. What's really impressive is that you can tune that bass using different IEM tips. I bought the memory foam tips and that really deepened the bass. Kinda too much. I shifted back to the silicone tips and prefer that sound and I think the silicone tips are more comfortable for long periods of listening. And they're way easier to keep clean (more important than I realized).I'm such a fan of these, I bought a second set when the left IEM stopped working. Turns out, it just needed cleaning and works like a champ again. The ear ports can get clogged, but don't buy an IEM vac. I used a plastic solder sucker to clean the ear ports.

Amazing value. This is one of those value products that leaves you scratching your head. You set them down and pick up your $2000 pair of U12T's and although there's a noticeable difference, you wonder if the price can REALLY justify that difference. These definitely have a bit of a distorted and unnatural tuning, but it's really enjoyable for most of the types of music I threw at them. I also tried them for video games and was surprised how well the soundstage opened up with a DAC or an emulated surround sound software. The clear resin that houses the KZ logo will be scratched up within a day or two and the ear tips feel a little cheap, but other than that these things felt really solid. Worth every penny and the fact that they each have 8 drivers with one of them being a dynamic, you get very lively bass and detailed highs with an energetic presentation. They're a bit fatiguing for longer listening sessions without an EQ, but I would recommend these whole heartedly for someone who likes that kind of music delivery. If you like a more natural tuning, try the KZ ZEX Pro which was tuned by Crinacle.

I really enjoy the sound of these, used for lead guitar monitoring, nice and clear, maybe lacking a bit of bass , but that is not a bad thing for guitar.

Working pro bassist/guitarist looking for first wireless IEM setup. Never needed them before, now I do. Tried these because musician friends like them and they do sound quite good and sound pretty well balanced frequency wise. But the ear tips are flimsy and fallback out easily, losing precious bass. You’ll definitely want to replace them with a higher end product like Comply ear tips. The Complys don’t back out of your ears, and passed initial head shake tests.I only just got these so build quality is unknown, but it seems like it’s pretty good except the ear tips, and they do a bang up job on recorded music. Way better than I expected, even with all the positive reviews.
