Nice one and the AS16 Pro is a bit more picky with the source and the bass doesn't hit as hard but has better separation. They sound quite different in reality.
The sound is good, the size not so much and it causes it to fall off my ears. I have tried a fair bit of eartips and only kz starlines seem to do the job. They could have shrunk it quite a bit if they used better the space inside the iem.
I bought kz zs10 pro x and I am not satisfied at all. I bought zsn pro three years ago. In my opinion, ZS10 Pro X is slightly better than ZSN Pro. If you had to choose between AS16 and KZ ZS10 Pro X, which would you choose? Do you need to pay that much for AS16? Thank you.
Can you do a comparison between this and its predecessor, the KZ AS-16? A number of test and reviews described the original AS-16 as "clean and technical, with a natural sound output as well as a natural sounding bass; more suited for monitoring and technical critical listening". And these tests, as far as i now, were done without any impedance adapters or eq. I currently own the AS-16 and is curious to find out if there is any real difference between the two, or is this just a repackaging of the AS-16. Thanks in advance!
What should I prefer, a descent amplifier or an impedance adapter, cause I already have a portable amplifier one, do you suggest that I'll buy an adapter?...
so does it sound better than single DD IEM's? in details, stage, imaging and all those audiophile terms? How does bass sound? is it faster and more "textured"? How do you compare it with something more expensive, like Moondrop Aria for example? with planar IEM's? does it sound different? or difference only in frequency response?
It might not sound better but it's surely different. Bass hit is softer but faster. Can't try against the Aria as I don't have it with me. Planars hit fast and planars sound closer to a DD than a BA set like this. Frequency response is only a guide.
@@VortexReviews1 thank you, this is interesting. Can you measure also (and show us in your future reviews measurements of distortion, impulse and waterfall)? It may be useful information
But I saw what Tyvan Lam clarify in his post that’s due to the testing equipment accuracy . If possible you can test them with more professional device?
interesting how reviewers seem to really like this thing but its frequency response is perhaps….less traditional? unique? lol i’m down with funky tunings for sure maybe KZ is on to something
@@VortexReviews1 I see, I skipped the conclusion part Thanks for your response. (Kinda sad that reviewers just ignore KZ's bad reputation with multiple drivers)
