Are they better than the KZ XTRA in terms of sound quality?
@PaulWasabii
@PaulWasabii Месяц назад
The two are closer than they appear. KZ tends to have a DSP tuning they use so that is why they will sound more similar than the price suggests. With Xtra, you are paying for AptX and the nicer shells more than a jump in sound quality

Hey Paul, How would you compare them against the Moondrop Space Travel and the Ultrasonic? Trying to decide on a TWS.
@PaulWasabii
@PaulWasabii 16 дней назад
I never heard any Moondrop tws. I'd say if bass or a lot of bass is in your preference, that is Carol. If you like less bass or have other Moondrop sets, then that will be a better choice.

Now I'm really conflicted. Saw a deal in my region for 40$ for the Soundpeats Air 4 Pro, but the 20$ Carol seems hard to beat! Ya think it's worth double the price or nah? I'm guessing yes for the features but the Carols look like they have a really fun sound behind em 🎉

@PaulWasabii 20 дней назад
Soundpeats is usually better on features but Carol gives you a really fun sound and ANC. You don't get the higher res codecs that I think you get on Soundpeats. No app support also.

@PaulWasabii Месяц назад
Melobuds are ok, mainly a feature based model where Carol is the opposite, minimal features, good sound. If you can live with just ANC and fun sound, Carol will do. As I said, the KZ shells also fit slightly different than typical TWS shells, I think they got that right but when I say that, usually someone pops up and says they don't fit at all.

I was confused between the castor and the carol. Just want something with good sound, this is my first chi-fi purchase. I enjoy bass, but would like something with good sound signature. Which one would you recommend around the $15-$25 price point?

The KZ EDC Pro is a good starter set. The new KZ Saga Bass version is similar, just more bass.

@PaulWasabii

Yeah its the best unless you really want AptX on KZ Xtra. There are a ton of tws which makes it super confusing. Three popular recent TWS compared here: x.com/kzhifi/status/1831993585920880997

@PaulWasabii
@PaulWasabii Месяц назад
Same idea, Carol is a minimal feature set, affordable price. Ceramcs X has more features, higher price. Ceramics X also has sound profiles which are decent. If you are fine with a big, fun bassy sound in this design, Carol is great. Save some money for another set down the road

so this is a step below the KZ Xtra?
@PaulWasabii
@PaulWasabii 2 месяца назад
In features it is. Carol was meant to do two things sound good and be affordable so the feature set other than ANC is minimal. Xtra has ANC and AptX adaptive. I think the shell design allowed them to take Carol in a different direction, more aligned to the tws market and a departure from nearly all their previous tws models. Some chance they will continue both designs.
