KZ EDX Pro Review - Original EDX Beater?

Here is my take on the KZ EDX Pro. Like the original EDX and that it is a single dynamic driver per side and is priced in the budget sector. It comes with a noticeably better cable than the original EDX

[@VortexReviews1]

I agree but I hope you get a good one.

[@WeirdRaichu]

to me the trn mt1 sounded better than the vk4, if you like bass, it was much more enjoyable to listen to and you can find many more enjoyable options than the mt1 from what i've seen, if you don't like bass any of them are much more enjoyable than your standard stock earbuds that come with your phone

If you read Crin reviews, you should know VK4 have shit quality control. (he get several to ensure that he get at least one good one) It was to a point we wonder whether the good SQ VK4 is actually comes from a defect.

[@sorcerermax5111]

I just got QKZ AK6 Max. It is a warm set with good vocals and safely tuned treble. Never gets sibilant or harsh in any track. Bass is there but can get muddy on some tracks. Comes with 6 sets of eartips and it is cheaper than regular EDX. Good for long listening sessions, just don't expect much technicalities out of it. It is the polar opposite to my KZ ZSN pro in sound. I like AK6 Max better for its easier listening. The specs all look similar to TRN MT1 but the driver inside looks different
