Best KZ IEMs

KZ D-Fi

KZ EDC PRO

• Jays Audio: Nicely tuned v shape, smooth treble for the price/single DD, also very cheap on sale... but KZ.
• Jaytiss: 12 Dollars, moderate your expectations, but it's ok.
• Shuwa-T:  How this was recommended ever befuddles me, nothing about this set works unless you listen to only the two extremes
• Bad Guy Good Audio:  Tonality, inoffensive tuning  BA bass

HBB KZ PR2

• Jays Audio: New batch needs 300-500 mesh filters
• Audionotions: Solid technical performance. Imaging and resolution much better than the price would suggest. Stage is average to intimate. Well-tuned planar - decently balanced. Treble can be very spicy and zingy -...

KZ PR1 Pro

• Precogvision: Solid choice at $50 for an exciting, high-clarity sound, but at the expense of an artifical brightness and timbre.

KZ ZSN Pro

• Shuwa-T: Comment: Well at least it fits pretty nicely.  Just no  Tonally off, technically limited

KZ EDX Pro

• Precogvision: Surprisingly extended treble and good bass dynamics for the price. Just crappy tuning per usual.

QKZ x HBB

• Jays Audio: Very well tuned warm/bassy set. Not basshead like the Rosefinch, but still has good bass impact as well as upholding enough treble extension.
• Fresh Reviews: good for $ - can border on C+
• Nymz: Amazing warm tonality with adequate techs for the bracket that turns into a ultra-budget nice alternative to the usual suspects.
• Audionotions: Fun, cheap, well-tuned. And the kicker - the treble extension is absurd for the price! However, aesthetically they are a tragedy. In this price range, value prop is often increased in the form of...

QKZ HBB

• Jays Audio: Very well tuned warm/bassy set. Not basshead like the Rosefinch, but still has good bass impact as well as upholding enough treble extension.
• Fresh Reviews: good for $ - can border on C+

QKZ HBB HADES

• Jays Audio: Slams even harder than the Rosefinch. If you want the most bass these are it. No vocals no treble, only bass. High-volume listening recommeded.

KZ Zex

• Precogvision: Warm and gooey but with too much spice in the mid-treble.

KZ DQ6

• Precogvision: Typical KZ IEM that didn't stick to the wall.
• Nymz: Treble too hot and mids are bad. Slam and stage are GREAT. Everything else is below average. Good for prog metal. Get CCA CRA instead.

KZ ZS10 Pro

• Precogvision: Bloated bass with zero texture meets the gritty, 5kHz peak of death.
• Shuwa-T:  Just no  Standard KZ treble, strange sounding iem, congested soundstage

KZ AST

• Precogvision: Sounds like KZ threw a bunch of drivers in a shell and called it a day.

QKZ x HBB Khan

• Jays Audio: Same as the Crin Zero but with slightl more bass and less faitguing, although at the cost of more recessed vocals/mids. Mid-bass tuck affects libraries.
• Jaytiss: Hard to recommend in a competitive market.
• Tim Tuned:  Very well tuned, strong clean bass  treble can use more eveness
• Audionotions: Low res. Too dark. Timbre is way off. Reminds me of an AM radio. Doesn't do much right if at all. An attempt was made and can't say much more than that. Previously Owned

KZ CRN

• Jaytiss: Hey a KZ that I like, ohh wait.
• Nymz: Lacks technicalities - mainly regarding detail, separation and dynamics. Stage is intimate. Timbre is funky. Notes are a bit blurry. Tuning is mostly fine. Nothing new at this current market.
