It's all about that bass! (A basshead iem for $12) | KZ Castor (Bass Edition) Review

[@ArponFahad-to1rc]

Is this better than air buds around this budget? (Qcy,oraimo,baseus) all those earbuds

[@ZakirHussain-nd4fw]

calm down bro

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Ya i do speak fast, but its specially true when in front of camera. I am sorry for that 😓 i am trying to fix it. My latest two videos seem quite better i guess, would like your opinion on it 🙂

[@rage_B3AST]

Any suggestions for good DAC in budget? For iphone 15plus cuz i have so much confusion as some peoples say dacs doesn’t work properly in iphone, and what’s the best eartips and cable according to you?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

The budget fiio KA11 would be fantastic! Sorry for the late reply, was really busy with work after everything that happened in my life. Really appreciate your comment 🙂🙏❤️

[@Gadgetibles]

For someone who listens to mostly hip hop and RnB music would you recommend this, the tangzu waner or the 7hz zero 2

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Yes for hip hop and r&b this is awesome! Although i highly suggest using a dac with these, as they shine when using a good dac. 🙂I have used the wan'ner but if you want bass then the castor bass is the option, sadly i havent tried the aero 2

[@Gigabyte9654]

​​@@hokagoteatimereviewsI have a 3.5mm Jack in my phone, should I consider getting a dac?

[@hizu4911]

I got mine today,im so happy and inlove with it, can you recommend setting switch for me?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Hello, thats great!! 😄 i am using UUDD, which is basically 2 level of boosts to bass and leave the mids and treble to its stock tuning. if you find the bass to be too much then switch to UDDD. Hope this helps!

[@philipm.4738]

I got these too and love them. Currently mine are set to UDUD and I like that but just try them yourself and see what you like the best😊 Very good review. Appreciate your enthusiasm 🙂

[@ateksudianto6237]

UUUD, with proper eartips and cable

[@astronaut2005drummer]

I got the Castor silver edition. And I'm waiting for the Castor Bass edition. :) Good review. Ome more subscriber.

[@rage_B3AST]

@@ateksudianto6237What’s the good cable and eartips? And any suggestions for a dongle of type c to 3.5mm for iphone 15 plus

[@kisukeurahara6882]

Are these good for movies ?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Hmmm.. they are decent at it. The chu 2 and gate are a better option for movies etc. 🙂 Thanks for the comment

[@Techy_meet]

Do i need a hi-fi DAC , i have a usb c to 3.5mm adapter that came with pixel 6a , will this adapter enough?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

For the castor a plain converter is more than enough 🙂

[@cl1xGOD]

Hows the mic?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

I think so i dont have the mic version, but regardless all kz iems have decent mics.

[@AphoticSoul]

i just got them but the bass is not good, 1 2 switches are turned on and 3 4 are off. do i need an amplifier?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

hello, thanks for stopping by. 🙂 sorry that you didnt like the bass it has, but i guess for the price it does more than enough. If you are talking about the quality of the bass then you will have to spend more 🙂 Hope you get what i meant.

[@AphoticSoul]

@@hokagoteatimereviews will getting a DAC help?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

I wouldnt suggest getting a dac, as these are quite easy to drive. I would rather suggest spending that money for an iem

[@AphoticSoul]

@@hokagoteatimereviews but i do have kz caster

[@Leviathan0721]

​@@AphoticSoul dac and amp does change sound a lot from normal 3.5mm Jack. Just my personal experience since I own one to

[@light0163]

Best tuning for gaming?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Hey, thanks for the reply. Really appreciate it 🙂❤️ Are you asking in general? Then in my opinion the EM6L is the most someone should spend to get the best gaming experience. Its fantastic! But if you are asking about the castor. Then no, in mt opinion the chu 2, truthear gate (whose review should come soon) are better Also sorry for the late reply, was busy with some stuff. Have posted a small update on my community tab.

Hey there! Do you happen to know what connection type the cable uses? I know it's 0.75 but is it qdc or 2 pin or what?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

hey! they use a qdc connection, but a 2 pin cable works without any issues with them. 🙂

Hello Brother if I compare CCA CRA vs KZ Castor, which one do you think has more bass rumble? as I checked in graphs CRA has slightly higher bump near 20Hz area

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Sorry brother, dont have the cca cra to compare 😔 But thank you for stopping by, i really appreciate it. 🙂❤️

[@_jnslhn_]

what switch setting for bass heads? currently mine is UUDD.

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

The UUDD is the ultimate basshead setting. 🙂

[@higorpessanha8601]

Kz Castor improved bass or Kz Esx have more bass?

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Hello, thanks for the commrnt 🙂. Sorry i havent used the ESX. so can't comment. But from what i know KZ Castor has the most bass of any budgrt iem i have come across, and not only is the bass quantity more but also the quality very good.

[@wanaboed]

Can you compare it to the more popular Moondrop Chu 2? I heard Chu 2 is for bassheads also

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Thanks for stopping by! 😄 But i won't say chu 2 is for bassheads. Chu 2 does have good bass but i wouldn't call it a basshead iem.

[@Car-Guygamer]

Is this spatial, soundstage wide ??

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Hey! thanks for the comment. 🙂 No it isnt that spatial, generally iems arent that spatial. But budget ones like these fare even worse. I would suggest spending atleast $50 or more to get a food spatial sounding iem Also sorry for the late reply, was busy with some stuff. Have posted a small update on my community tab.

@@hokagoteatimereviews Sir in ..kz castor,chu2, TangzuWaner,wanerstudio se,7hzzero 2...what do u prefer for good sound clarity,less muddiness, decent bass,mids,overall..good for most genre.. which should i go for.... please choose one..and also if there is good in $40 ,then please suggest that pair also

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

I haven't tested the zero 2. But I am testing the gate now. And what you explained, it can achieved by the truthear gate. I am also testing the Wanner studio edition which sounds similar to the gate. 🙂

[@AshishKumar-kb8qn]

What abt, sweat, rain, splash resistance??

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Iems generally dont have it. Although a tad bit sweat would be ok, but i will highly suggest to not use iems during workouts or anything like that. As they get destroyed with the sweat.

[@honeyblunt5150]

Very good review, Friend 👍

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Thank you very much! 😄❤️ Appreciate the kind words!

Bro can i use this iem with phone without a dac
