Today we are taking a look at another KZ product the ZST hybrid in-ear monitor. The KZ ZSTs are a hybrid setup of balanced armature and a dynamic driver that semi-molded universal fit. These monitors come shipped with the accompanying cable and silicone ear tips. The cables are detachable and can also (at least with this setup) used in conjunction with a cell phone to answer/decline phone calls and control volume. The build quality is nice and also the the coloring is a very cool mix to give them a nice look. As for my thoughts after testing the ZSTs, I was very happy with their performance. They worked so much bette than the previous pair I tested, the ZS3s. Sound quality was good especially when used with electronic drums. When used with acoustic drums the quality was still good but I noticed the scooped EQ profile a little more. These monitors do have good bass but they do kind of lean a little to the highs more than the lows but this is pretty common with universal in-ears or budget monitors. As for the comfort factor they weren't terrible, I used the supplied silicone ear tips more than the memory foam ones I additionally purchased because they fit my ears well and provided enough isolation while playing. The only real downside I found was after using them for several hours they began to wear on my ear and became uncomfortable. Even though the memory wire cables kept them in place these monitors are a little larger than some other universal fit ones and can b a little irritating after extended periods of use. All in all though these are a great choice for budget in-ear monitors and would also make a great back up pair if something were to happen to your main setup.

Trying to stay on it my friend, I just received a bunch of stuff I had ordered so I have more specific drummer later reviews coming up in the next couple weeks. But yes, the playing schedule is picking out because it’s summertime. Lots more gigs and getting busier as we go so I’m trying to balance that with getting the gear and reviewing it at the same time. As always though having a great time. I’ve been keeping up with your videos even though I haven’t been commenting. Great stuff as usual my friend keep it up 👊💯

@mlhbrx96
@mlhbrx96 6 лет назад
About the same as the ZSTs so far. Spent a few hours listening to tunes at work, checking all the EQ varieties. The ZS10s are said have less piercing highs than previous models (which I do agree with), but they have a ton of headroom for the listener to EQ to their liking. I've only have had em for one day, so we'll see how my ears feel after several days of wearing them. I'll say this, they fit in my ears better (and sound better) than the Shure SE215s I was given!

Hi mate, great video. Im tried using KZ ZST when im play drums at the studio and im disapointed... The earphones cannot stand the volume came from the amplifier especially of the cymbals even when i lowered the highs from portable amp. In the other way using my cheap jbl c100si earphones the drums sound great... Im still looking for arginomic inear headphones... Which model do you recommend for drummer.

I'm quite impressed with this review honestly. I've been skeptical about them, but from a drummer's perspective, this is amazing. And then the KZ ZS10s came out and now I am stuck again, but I am definitely getting them. I wonder how a KZ ZS10 handle live situations like you've described. Thanks, Bearded Drums! :D

Thanks so much, glad you found it helpful. They did well especially considering the price and did way better than the ZS3s. I would imagine the higher multi driver models would do even better. I won’t be doing another KZ review in the near future, I have to get back to the regular schedule of drum products but I’m got to keep an eye out and later select a higher multi driver pair of KZs to review.

@BeardedDrums

It was actually pretty good and I was using the include silicone tips. Usually you get even better iso with the foam ones but the foam tips that were for purchase on amazon didn’t really fit that well. At least for my ears. The included tips had pretty good iso, obviously there will some bleed.

I bought this zst and it has one kind of low noise that is easier to listen when you are playing a music that isn't so loud.. Is it happening with your zst?
@BeardedDrums
@BeardedDrums 6 лет назад
No, I haven’t heard any kind of noise when using them. I don’t run my ears that loud when I’m playing and the tests when just listening to music I didn’t hear anything either. It may just be the set you have and from what I’m hearing from other users is that there are issues with KZs quality control. They are great for the price your paying I would just like better quality control from them resulting in better performance on average for everyone.
