KZ ZS10 Pro: amzn.to/4bn59Kf
Other IEMs that I now recommend more than the ZS10 Pros:
7Hz Salnotes Zero: amzn.to/4eWeagv
Truthear Zero Red: amzn.to/4cDQknr
Truthear HEXA: amzn.to/4bn8ZTE
A review of the Linsoul KZ ZS10 Pros. These are a 5-driver IEM from Knowledge Zennith. This is not a sponsored video. I bought these units with my own money and KZ has no idea of who I even am. However, if you buy these through the links provided, commissions may be earned that directly support this channel.
Multi-driver IEMs tend to be expensive... but these are $50?? Having multiple drivers can technically give you better clarity and frequency response, but is that the case here?

I NO LONGER RECOMMEND THESE IEMs! Well it happened. KZ tried to buy positive reviews from people, which is a big no-no in all industries. I won’t be doing anymore KZ reviews as of 8/13/23. After further testing, I recommend the 7hz Salnotes Zero, Truthear x Crinacle Zero: Red, or Truthear Hexa over any of the KZ IEMs.

I have this pair of IEMs. Before these I was using a 60 dollar headset I got back in 2018. The difference is huge and ive noticed that I can hear the games environment a lot better and often times I am telling my friends that I can hear a player in a house in Fortnite way before any one notices. I have this plugged into my gaming desktop that is getting pretty old so im sure sound quality would improve even more when getting a new motherboard or just getting a DAC. Ive paired these IEMs with a blue yeti mic I got off amazon used for around 55 dollars. I will likely hold onto these IEMs even longer than my old gaming headset. If I do upgrade I am getting more expensive IEMs. Great Video Ken!

I upgraded to the Linsoul Tripowin Zonie 16 Core Silver Plated Cable and the sound improvement is noticeable with all my IEMs. Instead of replacing my 10 year old Shure 215 IEMs, I decided to experiment and purchased the Tripowin cable and the following IEMs: Linsoul KZ ZS10 Pro, KZ x HBB PR2 (planar), Linsoul QKZ x HBB, and QKZ x HBB Khan. I wanted to enjoy Lossless audio and needed a wired IEM for traveling on 10 hour flights without dealing with recharging. These affordable IEMs are a game changer. I use a portable USB Type-C DAC for times when I need more power to run high impedance or planar devices. You don't need to spend a lot of money to get a quality listening device any longer.
@buelow123
@buelow123 4 месяца назад
The ZS10 Pro X are a lot smoother in treble. Same price. I compared like 10 different IEMs in this price range and for live monitoring I found these to be the best. Not necessarily for listening to music. But the difference drivers make a good separation between lows and highs. If you prefer a more coherent listening experience (singers or piano players) I would suggest a 1DD or 2DD design (CHU 2, Zero 2, Zero red HBB Khan).

I've got the KZ ZS10 Pro X, which were about the same price as the ZS10 at the time when I bought them. For my ears, I had to drag the highs way down because they were way too sparkly and I had to boost the mids and lows. With a lot of EQing, they sound more clear and punchy than any earphones I've ever used. Love them, but I'd love to hear a more reference IEM some day too.
@KenCreates

Good to know! Some people were asking about the X's and I wasn't sure what to tell them. I've been looking for more reference IEMs and the Etymotic ER4SR keeps coming up. Expensive but my interest in piqued! Until then, the Truthear Hexa has been more flat but still has quite a bit of sub extension.

at first i hated them, my KZ ES4 and CCA CRA+ sounded way better, but then I boosted the sub bass and tamed the highs too, and they sound incredible for electronic music and 80's, separation is great, and bass is the best out of all the headphones and earphones i own. only criticism is that vocals are a tad thin, but i still love them.

Kz’s were the 1st iems I tried a few years ago..(as a pro musician for performance), initially I was impressed (but I had no reference) until I experienced the dreaded cable popping out of the ear bud issue that seems to plague the KZ range..I ended up gluing it back in place…I never found them a comfortable fit, they are heavy and tend to drag on the ears..I later got a set of TRN V-80s (which I still use occasionally as a backup) which were fantastic..good beefy low-end and so light and comfortable you would forget you were wearing them, I’ve had them about 5 years now and they are still ticking along nicely (I definitely can’t say the same about the kz’s)

Incredibly honest review! I love this, and I've just compiled a list with 4 more of your videos to make sure this is the channel to follow. I create music near on daily while touring studios across Atlanta, and you are 100% right. We would never use the KZ ZS10 Pro/Pro X (I've used both) for mixing but they are sooooo good for audio pleasure. I am a massive fan of Cubilux in Shenzhen China, and use their 192 KHz USB C DAC with my phone and it sounds perfect! I've tried several DAC's but I'm really fussy and the Cubilux products blow me away. Back on topic - I produce hip hop 'trap' beats with the iLoud micro monitors, and usually mix with the Beyerdynamic DT240 Pro X which both have a fairly flat sound for monitoring. That said I did some video editing with the Beyerdynamic earphones and it sounded horrible. I prefer to edit my videos with my phone using the KZ earphones. I started with the KZ ED9 and bought a few of my friends some to try. They were all immediately converted. Then I bought the KZ ZS10 Pro because I needed them to stay in my ear. Audio upgrade and better comfort. I sadly lost one of the earbuds in Heathrow Airport security on my way to Atlanta and was really peed.. then ordered some of the 'X' variant to try and they're really nice. Very similar and I'm finally getting used to them. I recommend these earphones to everybody. China have perfected perfection yet again! They are the most incredible innovators and everything I own was made in China. Without their hard work and intricate soldering we wouldn't have this much tech available.
@KenCreates
@KenCreates 6 месяцев назад
Agreed! They really pushed the IEM market to innovate and made good audio more accessible for the masses. I’ll have to check out the Cubilux. I have the FiiO BTR5 as my portable DAC/amp. I’ve always been curious about the iLoud micros… everything I read is positive. If you’re ever looking for a pair of IEMs that are far more neutral than the ZS10 Pros, I’ve been really enjoying the Truthear HEXA and Salnotes Diokos lately!
@trapbeatproducer
@trapbeatproducer 6 месяцев назад
@@KenCreates Thank you for the reply. I just mixed one of my instrumentals using the standard 3.5mm output and my ZS10 Pro X, it works fine! In fact I'll use them as my reference because its very close to the test I do after exporting from my DAW to the phone. I think I preferred the ZS10 Pro's but the Pro X is just as good once you get used to them. I'm going to check out the Truthear HEXA and Salnotes Diokos right now, thanks again!
@Spladoinkal
@Spladoinkal Месяц назад
Due to the Fletcher Munson curve, the EQ curve is going to be more or less pleasing to the ear depending on the volume you're listening. At lower volumes, midrange is more pronounced so a boosted bass/treble curve is going to sound the best. However, the louder you listen to your music, the more the bass and treble will increase in relation to everything else so a boosted midrange will sound more pleasing. Since the idea of iems is originally to allow you to lower the volume of your listening while isolating stage volume, you're generally going to want the boosted bass/treble over the boosted mids.

Ive been using the KZ ZS10 Pro for a while now mainly for competetive gaming and i personally really like them for listening to music like hip hop and dnb.

@TheRebelLion13
@TheRebelLion13 Год назад
@@KenCreatesNo problem man! You're most welcome 👍👍 The ZAR is basically a KZ's response to the critique of the ZAS- a lot of bass with not enough treble. But from those who were able to compare the ZAS and the ZAR, the feedback is they found the "umph" and "thump" of the bass on the ZAR a little lacking. I myself own the ZAS and the AS16. I don't really have "audiophile level" ears, just a casual listener who has a bit of appreciation for good(relatively speaking) audio. But yeah, when i do get a bit of too much bass, i tend to switch to my AS16 to sort tone things down a bit. As of late, i've been finding myself turning off the eq(Equalizer APO) and just using the sound amplifier on DeskFX. i guess just got tired of messing with eq; "EQ fatigue"? hehehe... And i discovered that these two(ZAS and AS16) sound just fine, for me at least(again, i'm no audio pro nor do i have "audiophile ears", so i'm not gonna pretend.), without the eq and with just the sound boost. The AS24 has gotten good reviews even from those who have been not so fond of KZ. Check out Akros's review of the AS24, it's the most detailed one i've watched, so far. Savvy also did a quick review, but if you want a more technical review, check out the one by Akros. i myself am looking to get myself either the AS24(non-tuning ver) or the Tripowin x HBB Kailua... kinda torn between the two. Wish i could get both, but even just one of either of those two will take a bit of saving up on my end. So, yeah... still really mulling things over.

I like KZ stuff at the time, going for that V shaped approach. But it later has gone through alot of the same iems that almost practically sound the same. It made the iems feel stale to me. The 5 driver implementation is insane for the price but the sound it gives is just a miss. Back in 2018 it would a great deal but when other iems come in the market especially now. This iem is just too overrated imo. But still at the time, it was a killer set to have. still love the video, try more budget iems in this space. If you have one, I suggest that you EQ yours to your liking. Hella made mine less peaky and boomy.

The set is a harman kardon suits alot of genres but its good mainly on hiphop and rock this might be the set you would go for around 50$ imo. You can also go for the HBB Khan because it copies the truthear 2DD drivers and abit cheaper but I would go for the Truthear since the bass is abit too much in the Khan and the mids and highs of the Truthear is abit better on that as well. I have the 2 sets in hand and been comparing alot when they released. In sum, Zeros with a doubt but Khan is good option too.

Thanks for a great review. Just got my first pair. They're great, but they make a sound as if the speakers are turning on and off when changing from song to song. Is that normal? Thanks.

Been comparing these to AS16 Pros and like them both, but as a musician who uses IEMs for live shows, the AS16 Pros seem to be the way to go, with their much flatter response.

Interesting. I have these and feel they are all mids and maybe 2 crossover points for the highs. They don't sound warm at all playing music through them, but we'll see how they shape up with the phenyx pro in ear system at practice this week. Thanks for a great video!

They will in the sense that they are wired headphones. You only run into issues with lossless compatibility with wireless headphones. With WIRED headphones such as these, you should look into getting a good DAC and amplifier to take full advantage of the music codec. If you're looking to get some really good quality headphones/in ears, I will point you towards the Truthear Hexa or Salnotes Diokos.

@KenCreates
@KenCreates 11 месяцев назад
I think for stage monitoring these should be fine. I’ve heard of bands using these since they’re cheap and they won’t mind if they break during use. The “cheap” Shures are much more expensive and I would definitely be upset if they broke during use. Edit: if you want something more neutral and “real” sounding, I recommend the Truthear Hexa or the Sennheiser IE200 if you can stretch your budget a bit more.

Hey! Have you compared them to the QKZ x HBB Khan? The khans seem much better with a 2DD setup with some HBB spaz to make them fun sounding with seeming a more warm but still detailed approach. also, I have heard the KZ might be too "bright", would you confirm if that's case? Thanks man!
@KenCreates

I have not! I'll have you check them out! KZ does tend to push the bass and treble quite a bit but not to the point that it's too bright, at least for me. Personally, I like a balanced sound that some bass heads might find too harsh.

Only $15 to get a feeling for IEMs

Definitely! I also think that being an "audiophile" comes with a lot of social baggage these days with everyone fighting over frequency response graphs and forgetting that what matters most is the actual sound. Thanks for the kind words! If you are looking for another budget friendly IEM that defies all expectations as far as price goes, the 7Hz Salnotes Zero is insanely good for $20. Far superior imo than the KZ ZS10, now that I've listened to more IEMs.
