QKZ x HBB and KZ Castor, which one is better?

[@dthliat1]

another great one bro time for a rankings review

[@ianfann]

Thank you bro!

[@kinjazplayground6784]

Can you help me decide which is better Qkz Hdd or Zns Pro X? Best fit for workout experience

[@WindMills_]

Also your cable choice are always topnotch 🤩 Need to find that black yinyoo cable

[@ianfann]

thanks!

[@mrezhamarcello]

Hello ian. Another good videos. Cool! Anyway, could you give some suggestions between this new QKZ HBB vs Kz ESX. Which one is better for overall sounds, detail and balance?

[@ianfann]

they are very close, very close but esx has cleaner and airier highs

[@tiagorods.]

The problem is that KZ seems to have changed the tuning on the newer ESX units. Check the measurements from Ian and compare them to HBB's measurements and other reviewers on head-fidotorg. Before, the upper mids didn't have any weird peaks. On current units there is a boost in the upper mids and 5k, which can cause fatigue for some.

[@mrezhamarcello]

@@tiagorods. oh really? Ouch i just checked out the KZ done already 🤣

[@tiagorods.]

I was about to buy the KZ ESX, glad I discovered this discrepancy in time and ended up buying the Qkz x Hbb instead, they're on their way. I'm going to put Tri Clarion tips to open the soundstage and the treble. Unfortunately, KZ seems to keep shooting itself in the foot.

[@mrezhamarcello]

@@tiagorods. its already too late for me. I have paid already for the ESX. Now is wating for shipping 😅

[@Razar244]

Hey ian great video as always! One suggestion if I may when it comes to TWS is the QCY T17S, they seem to be Harman-ish tuned from the few squigs i've seen about them and they have a very powerful in-app EQ that seems to save on them from the testing i've done so far which (probably) gives them a lot of potential. Impressive little set for not even 30 euros for sure and worth a check out in my opinion.

[@ianfann]

Cool! I’ll go check them out and see if they are worth reviewing or not thanks!

[@tiagorods.]

Hey sir, my Qkz x Hbb is almost here and I want to buy a better cable (for the look and durability) but that works for both Qkz Hbb and Salnotes Zero, like a TRN T2 16 core 0.78mm for example. But I'm afraid the 0.78mm will ruin or not fit well on the Qkz Hbb as it has this 0.75mm connector, because I don't know exactly how it works with these different pin sizes. Are you using a 0.75mm or 0.78mm pin cable in it? Can I stick the same 0.78mm pin cable into both without fear?

[@ianfann]

It’s mostly 0.78mm bro, as long as your cable is 0.78mm it should fit most popular iems

[@WindMills_]

I'm waiting for this one, Thank you Ian 🥰

[@ianfann]

You’re welcome 😊

[@FerdySambo515]

How this qkz x hbb compare to dq6s in the treble area? Are this qkz x hbb treble is more less fatiguing and more smooth?

[@EliasPfaiffer]

do i need a 3,5 2PIN or a 3,5 QDC cable for the QKZ x HBB? or can i take both of them?

[@ateksudianto6237]

this iem is a little bit dark on treble side, for my taste

[@ianfann]

Yes they do sound a little bit darker than some of the other iems in the same budget range

[@zygote8888]

Definitely for darkside fans bright side fans should stay away Hbb himself said it .

[@crzydraze]

in the review can you compare with kz esx?

[@ianfann]

in the review meaning? you want me to do another video or you just want to see the graph?

[@crzydraze]

​@@ianfann I mean when you do the full review of qkz x hbb, so could you compare them

[@ianfann]

Ah ok ok understood can no problem

[@tiagorods.]

Yes please, I'd like that too. Especially about the soundstage. I want to know if they're comparable.

[@janueldagasuhan4943]

How does it compare to wan'er?

[@OrlandAeternus]

VS CCA CRA? I mean the normal version no modifications.

[@ianfann]

this has a bit more air to the treble but they sound almost the same

[@Digital-Womp-Womp]

thanks for this info. now im satisfy with my CRA

[@hamranrosli6844]

is it worth it if i change from kz zsn pro x to qkz hbb? I prefer a more boomy and deep bass

[@rieljoson5701]

Which would you prefer qkz hbb or kz dq6s ?

[@zygote8888]

16usd in india along with carrying case , and foam or Spinfit CP 100 will give best result .
