Review of the KZ ZAX IEM

[@sdmarinkashifu4536]

The best KZ so far. Ive had this pair for quite some time now after jumping from zsn pro X. The improvement is just...wow!

[@divyanshraghuwanshi457]

I have been using zsn pro, should i upgrade to this?

[@mizikacibalik]

Do you have any problem using it outside cause of the vents?

Nice detailed review. Love the look at your face when your dog was going berserk spinning around. Haha. Love how you tear down how the ZAX is tuned. When listening to music I never listened with a flat profile and love fiddling around EQing my headphones, so the recessed mid tones you mentioned could be EQ'd back in? Also, how does this compare to the KZ ZSX I love the ZSX, but not the fit and considering upgrading to the ZAX.

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Thank you! My dogs a mess but he's my bud. These do respond pretty well to eq so yes you definitely eq those back in. Unfortunately, I haven't heard the ZSX

I know! 🤣

[@mrfrosty3]

I've never tried a KZ but if I were to buy one it would be this model, it is the first I have found quite good looking.

[@NjabuloHadebe]

it looks quite decent. ive already ordered kz zs10 pro though!

[@dmkays]

Question Please. If you EQ to compensate for the V, do those lower mids become muddy? Or can you get a satisfactory warmth and clarity if you bring those up? I have been using the ZS-10 Pro IEM's for since they came out and I like them alot, however, while I find the Bass to be acceptable, I want more of it without losing the clarity across the entire spectrum. Is this a worthwhile upgrade to the ZS-10 Pro? Thank you for the review and I look forward to your reply.

The dog spin xD

[@hugedom]

Was on the edge to hear if you think the extra $10 or the extra drivers were worth it compared to the CCA C10 Pro ??

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

ZAX has a little more treble. I personally prefer C10 Pro

[@HiFiGOAudio]

Love the looks of this one, their latest 10BA ASX also look very good. This one right here has a bit hot treble, while the latest ASX has elevated bass. Personally prefer the ASX sound!!

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Haven't listened to the ASX but I've heard good things. Hoping to get my hands on a pair to review. ASX does look really nice.

[@kittikorn6674]

Does zax treble goes high as zsn pro x?

[@MONOMYTH1]

Thank you I am looking for budget items and I play drums so I wil most likely go with the kz zs10 pros because of the noise cancellation . Also good review

Thank you!

Thanks for review my question what the name of DAC u used 4:22

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Thanks for watching! It was the iFi Nano Black label

[@rainiermuyot4985]

Is this good for playing live session? My instrument is Bass..

[@ManuAnand79]

Thanks for the detailed review! I finally understood what V-shared actually means and what is lost because of the same. What would you recommend as an alternate when the singer's vocal range is off the charts and the only other instruments playing are not that busy? This is what happens in the Quawalli genre especially with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

[@etxeberre1]

Moondrop Starfield, they have a very controlled mid and highs. The bass in here is just 5 dB's extra so no distortions whatsoever. Overall they have awesome sound for the price.

[@adrnik19]

Are they semi-open? Or that's just part of the design?

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

I am pretty sure that's just part of the design. There's not enough noise bleed through to indicate any kind of opening

[@andresmile9233]

is this open back sound like the Audeze LCDi4, monoprice m350, etc?

[@SomebodysNephew]

Did you burn these in? My ZS5s had bass increase a lot and the harshness/sibilance reduced.

[@yudha_saputra]

Good review 👍

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Thank you!

[@apidas]

very good review

[@digitaldemonace2450]

These vs the c12 and c10 what you recommend for gaming

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Thanks for taking the time to watch. Either one would probably work okay. The C10 pro is a little cheaper and may offer better isolation. The C10 pro has a brighter tuning and could become fatiguing depending on your listening volume. It was fine for me though.

[@digitaldemonace2450]

@@Audio-In-Reviews best for immersion new to iems trying to figure out my first pair

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

@@digitaldemonace2450 I don't game regularly so I don't typically test that aspect of most iems. They both have their strengths and weaknesses. The KZ ZAX has slightly better imaging and soundstage capabilities than C10 Pro (which means you might be able to more precisely pinpoint where sounds are coming from within your game environment. Again only slight improvement) however the C10 Pro will offer better isolation (block outside noise) and still has good imaging and soundstage. And again, the C10 Pro is cheaper. So it really depends on your personal preference and whether you want to spend the extra money for minimal improvement. Personally, I think you'd be fine with the C10 Pro

[@digitaldemonace2450]

@@Audio-In-Reviews most comfortable tho in your opinion

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

@@digitaldemonace2450 The only discomfort I experienced was with the cables, at the bend at the two-pin connectors on both the ZAX and C10 Pro. I had no issues with the iems themselves. I had to frequently adjust the iems by twisting them forward so the cable wouldn't put pressure at the top-front of my ear. So comfort was the same for me on both.

[@maksat5459]

What about TRN V90S? Can you review it?

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Only problem is, I'm not sure if I can get my hands on a pair. If so then yes

[@biga6856]

How's the bass on these? , are these good for Bass players?

[@Audio-In-Reviews]

Not sure, but i used them on drums and they were fine. Also our lead guitarist borrowed them and he said he had a decent mix. I know he usually has me (drums) and the bass player cranked up pretty good and he said it didn't seem like the iems were overwhelmed at all. If you have a decent iem system and mix everything right they should work fine.

[@TMS004]

What is the expected life of this model

[@josephnevin]

A year until the next model comes out. Zax was last year's flagship hybrid.

[@DoronzoGiuseppe]

​@@josephnevinqual è il nuovo modello di casa KZ? C'è un modello migliorato dello ZAX?
