Thanks for speaking in English for the whole world. Bcz many put the title in English and speak only Hindi, we foreigners can’t understand it and waste time every time clicking to such titles.

I HATE those youtubers

Incredible IEM. I got my castor today and I must say it is super amazing with the first listening. Thank Bro❤👌🏻✌🏻👍🏻
update?
How is it working. Im afraid if they stopped working as they are chinese afterall.
@@soundscapeswithswaritI hope you are not new in IEM world , under $100 CHI-FI IEMS dominate and their sound quality & build quality is exceptional according to their price.
Are you still enjoying your iem?
This is a crazy detail review, literally give me all I need to know before buying an IEM
So what's your review on it ??
I have never seen such a great explanation of a pair of headphones/IEMS. Great job mate, keep it up
Nice Review.
I am also using KZ Castor Bass version.
I just keep 0010 for vocals and for more fun and engaging experience 1110 setting.
Which app to equalise
@@aaronvarghese6955i also use 0010 but the bass is still unbearable
Do you use any DAC or just plug into your phone ?
Are they working ? I am afraid if they malfunction after sometime
How to know if the Castor is a bass version or not?
I got my Kz Castor Bass version today, Absolutely Loving it with DdHifi Dac, Awesome review
How's the midrange?
Does it have details?
Can the minor nuances of the songs be heard?
Better than waner
@@sytzone8213Really ? Is it better than waner sg?
camera quality is increadible
Fantastic review thanks mate. Keep up the good work! You earned another subscriber 👍
Ordered them today from Amazon... Very exited to check them
Aliexpress is the sellers platform, Amazon is by dropshippers of KZ Castor
I enjoyed this review so much...i am getting this ..i am so impressed that this castor cost so little cant wait to pair this my LG v40 quad dac with some 24bit flac files
bro u flex your lg v40 in every video comment section
@@harshithn2536 cos of the audio quality mainly I like how it sounds using the headphone jack 😀
@@Gadgetibles I dono in every iem review comment section i see your comment bringing lg v40
I think thats y lg stopped selling smartphones
@@harshithn2536his LG v40 is his personality
Whick is better the castor black or the qkz hbb
Hello bro, which one would you rather? The Tangzu Wan er SG or the Kz Castor in the video? Please answer
@@bruhman6411 KZ Castor
@@Purecast9thanks a lot bro!❤❤
Good job, could you compare these to kz zsn pro x in the next video ? Like versus battle ? It would be interesting.
@@drdre3307 quite similar but the ZSN PRO X has a more exaggerated bass response. Done might enjoy that.
@@Purecast9 Thanks for such a super fast response
Castor vs zsn pro x which one is better
Amazing review. Really appreciated
I am looking forward to buy this iem with the improved bass for my daily drive, thanks for this review!!
If anyone like me thinks these have the mids a bit too recessed, flip the number 3 switch on and slightly increase the EQ on mids to highs (slightly). It will sound amazing and still retain the punch.
which eq app do you use ??
Definitely plays with high end, depth, detail, tonal balance, just really something
The moment this guy said bass heads will love it, I ordered it.
With a portable DAC.
Check the description and also check compatibility.
I ordered them and cannot wait until I can listen. Thank you, great review
Were they worth it?
@@kasuki1000 I prefer qkz x Hbb better but now have pula pa02
How is it
@@kasuki1000yes but they have no sound stage. Everything is in your face and totally unbalanced.
@@herbcohenflow7867 which kz has a good soundstage?
I am confused between kz castor , kz zns pro x and tangzu waner'sg. I want a all round sound. Please help
Overall, I'd choose the Castor or ZSN PRO X.
Quality of your videos, damn🔥
Also…Im at the verge of getting these… but then you mentioned that these stick out? Like does it feel weird? Uncomfortable is okay but do they feel weird? Do you know what im saying?😂
Thanks.
Lol 😂
They are not uncomfortable or weird.
It's not huge,but not as flat as certain others are.
Plus,the sound with the settings I mentioned makes up for everything.
Your review meets my experience with KZ castor. Liked it.
How's the mids?
Smooth @@dvdarshan
I'm new to IEMs and recently got the KZ Castor (BASS) and the Tangzu Wan'er. Just want to ask,
(1)which one is better between the two?
(2)And if there is not much comparison between the two, are there any special use for each them?
(3)I kinda know that they're not at the expensive range, so between the two, I would also like to know which is better for daily use and which is better for gaming usage? In the case that I want to use one for gaming.
Bro did you got Castor or any other. I am also looking for the same usecase. please tell me too
It's been a month, maggie. Tell us what you've noticed between the two
hi guys, I'm currently using 3 IEMs now.
1. Tangzu Wan'er - I carry this IEM daily for calls and listening podcasts to. I feel like this IEM has better clarity for vocals compared to the other IEMs that I currently have. It's also pretty loud compared to others when I use it on my PC, I usually have to adjust my volumes whenever I use it.
2. KZ Castor(Bass Enhanced) - This one is permanently on my PC. I interchange it with my AT M40x because of better sound staging compared to the Wan'er. Of course, this is just how I feel about it. It could be different for others. My current IEMs can never beat headphones in sound staging.
3. KZ AS24(Tuneable) - I got these as a guilty pleasure(lol). There's plenty of ranging opinions regarding this IEM, but so far, I really have a good time using this IEM. I also carry it around daily with the Wan'er, but only use it when listening to a ton of music while working/chilling. It's, in a way, better than the other two, but it doesn't beat the Wan'er in vocal clarity. Some might find the AS24 a little heavy/bulky as it is considerably bigger than the other two, that's why I only use it if I'll be sitting for a long time.
Verdict:
1. Tangzu Wan'er - Light, good vocals. good for calls, podcasts. can consider for gaming.
2. KZ Castor(Bass Enhanced) - Good sound staging. Not as good as headphones, but good enough. Good for fps games. Can interchange with Wan'er.
3. KZ AS24(Tuneable) - Good sound staging, well balanced, and versatile. Just that it's out of the $25-$35 price range. Very good for musicians or just the average Joe.
@@maggiealfonso9887 cool, I also bought the Castor and they are amazing be it for listening songs or for gaming 😁
P.S. I'm not in any way an audiophile or an expert. All of this is just my opinion/experience. There are many variables that you can factor in that result in the difference in each other's experience. Also the wires and tips that I use are:
1. Wan'er - TRN RedChain Plus Earphone Cable.
2. KZ Castor - Yinyoo 8 Core Pure Copper Cable.
3. KZ AS24 - NiceHCK C24-2 24 Core Silver Plated Copper Alloy Copper Headset Cable.
All using MoonDrop Spring Tips Medical Silicone Soft Elastic Earplugs.
Recommend a dac for lightning cable for iphones

I was planning on buying this. Good review sir thank you
I have both tangzu waner and this castor bass version.. Castor sounds little bit more wider soundstage ❣️✅ with tight bass response (swich 1&2 ON) and more relaxed which i like more.
Tangzu Waner had more forward mids and more mid bass and better and clear highs
Which is best KZ CASTOR or KZ ZEX
Rewatching this in my new kz Castors 😍
Is it good for gaming like valorat
is this good for mixing music?
@@shackle1960 i haven't put it to that use. But should work.
Thanks a lot friend for the detailed review........ thank you so much 😊😊
Bro !have u used blon03...what should i look for music quality...i like bass..but doesn't like if bass is overtaking the other parts like seperation and imaging and quality... please reply brother....
I bought it a few days ago I'm shocked that it's even better than my sennheiser iem.
How is it working ? And what about the sound stage?
I listen to mostly to hip hop and rnb which would you recommend between this and the tangzu waner
@@Gadgetibles this
Thanks mate for the review ❤
The portable DAC you have suggested, is it compatible with iPhone 15 Pro? Please respond, have a good day.
Best to check with the manufacturer.
Mine didn't come with foam tips pre-installed. Heck, there are no foam tips in the box. I've received only silicon tips that to in white color. Did anyone experience this with Bass Version?
They mentioned it on their website
NOTE: Starting from February 2024, foam eartips will no longer be included with the KZ Castor.
@@dvdarshan hey, thanks for letting me know... do you mind sharing the link?
Just received mine, they're just an hype, I mean if you don't have a big budget they're Ok, but nothing crazy
You HAVE to consider the price to performance ratio.
Sir can you please tell us which IEM is best either 7hz Salnotes zero or kz castor...?
@@djnoahjones KZ CASTOR
@@Purecast9 thank you sir and can you tell me why the kz castor is better than Salnotes zero as per your view and as a audiophile
Better than kz zex?? Reply me
Hey i have a query, you said the male sound isn't deep enough does this affcet male hiphop artists sound does it make it oaund very bad ? For example if possible can you listen to songs like euohoria by kendrick lamar where there are parts where his voice is deep? I would apprecaite with a subscribe.
wow, very detailed review. please make more cheap iem reviews thanks
I didn't get the foam tips 😢
Hi, I had bought this a few months ago and my mesh filters became damaged so had to remove them.
I'm thinking of buying a new one. Do you know what the perfect size of its mesh filter would be? I tried to measure it by scale
I would like to buy this ,but the problem is how to connect with Google pixel 7a it has c type port ??
buy a dac
Have you tried purring this on kz az09?
Hi bro i wish you a very happy new year ❤
Currently im using kz edx pro i liked it very much the draw backs r not having base at all in edx ,so I'm want to buy castor is it really worthy for base bcoz i want more nd more base ,so can i love castor is it really worthy for base nd expect some specs like typical iem , hope you reply
Thank you 😊
This definitely packs great bass if you follow the settings I mentioned.
I'm using cca cra should I buy this? Will it be a upgrade do reply..
Bro can you campare with kz zsn pro
Hey brother I wish you nd your family a very happy new year..
I heard many positive responses for the KZ Castor so I wanted to add it in my list. But before that I wanted to have a word with you. I have ZSN Pro X so buying this Castor will be a good choice?? Can this be considered as an upgrade to the Zsn pro x in terms of overall audio quality??
Thank you in advance brother..
Happy New Year brother ❤️
I don't know if I would call it an upgrade,but,I thoroughly enjoyed the sound.
And it gives you that control over the harsh high frequencies to make it sound a bit more mellow.
@@Purecast9 oh ok brother.. thanks for the quick response..
@@Purecast9This!!! Control!!! All throughout the audio spectrum. Feeling I could rule the world. harharhar😁👍🤩
Thanks for this great review!
i saw they were people buy te wireless modl to connect the buds, so there it becomes tje wireless ear buds. i wonder which wireless module were the best to get for this buds.
Can u suggest me iem with good bass...as i am just a general listener with good high and mids under 2k...
This works great.
Or Blon BL03, Truthear Gate, KZ Libra are all budget options
You can watch my review of these and then decide.
How are they compared to kz zex? please reply
Should i buy with mic or without mic
Depends on whether YOU need a mic.
Might be my first iem
I have apple device can u plz suggest me a budget friendly dac for my iphone 15 love from Bangladesh ❤
Checkout the DAC in the description.
Which one os good as i finds many on amazon. Also are they Type C supported as i don't have headphone jack on my mobile.
Type C will work fine or else you can get the portable DAC that is mentioned in the description.
how's the call quality on these?
Is KZ CASTOR base version, better than KZ - ZS10 Pro ?
Hey there nice review! I was wondering if you could tell me the cable type the Castor uses? Is it a 0.75 qdc??
Thanks!
I can't find this info anywhere! I know it's 0.75 but I don't know for sure if it's qdc or 2 pin or etc. I want to get a different cable but not sure what to choose, lol.
For him 1,2,3 on and 4 off worked
Bro @purecast 9
Please comment on the mic quality
Is it good for calls ?

How much

Nice review .. crystal clear about the facts.
I bought it yesterday..now they are only providing silicon buds..
Which one is better?
Trn mt1 max or Kz castor
So I was getting the castor bass for $12 and Harman for $9.1 🎉. So what I did was obvious. I bought both😂
Amazing review by the way.
Hey @abominablearex6487,
Can you please tell me which one sounds the best. I am going for one.
@@jasondsouza7302 for my taste I like the harman better. It is more detailed. Technically the bass version is just as much detailed but the extended bass tends to cloud the sound even though it's there.
Awesome video and review.
Hey buddy.. I m using the Truthear hola without a dac. Should I go for this one or Abigail pro? Can I expect some overwhelmingly different sound from the same pair with dac ?
Not overwhelmingly different,but, definitely adds some subtle detail and definition.
Also,volume gets a boost at times.
Hi. If you want to upgrade better save a bit more and get the cca rhapsody. Its a great upgrade.
What have u u decided, cardinal? How does the Hola & these compare?
It's iem compete the 7h zero in term of sound quality?
I want to buy iem in those which is best ?
I'd say for the price it is better.
@@Purecast9which is better?
@@josaphcj71997hz Salnotes Zero is far better best clarity instruments vocals under 2k
Not even 10k or 5k iems can sound this good
which is better KZ Zex or kz Castor Bass? as you've tried both what do you recommend
Same question here🙋
I'd go with this.
The highs are not as harsh as you can use the tuning switch to handle that.
Is this good in gaming? Like call of duty mobile?
@@jasongonzales1569 sure
@@Purecast9 thanks for the fast response
wanner or castor which should buy?
Castor destroy waner
can we buy these earphones for normal purpose?
@@divyahshah3373 of course
Which is best KZ Castor or Truthear Gate ?
Castor
SHOULD I GO FOR KZ ZSN PROX OR KZ CASTOR BASE VERSION ?
NEED HELP
Castor Bass Version has the versatility to tone down the sibilance which you can't on the ZSN PRO X
Great review. I subscribed
I have the Tangzu Wan'er s.g. Should I purchase this one? I monstly listen to Jpop, Jrock, indie and Indian classicals.
You could as I personally felt the overall resolution was better especially with the tuning I suggested in the video.
did you buy it ? I am pretty confused between the waner and the castor
@@kowsalyasivamani4793 i have both,but I prefer the KZ Castor
@@Purecast9 it has QC issues?
The castor bass and the celest wyvern have become my favorite, smoothest IEM's I own. I don't know how kz does it. The 2DD is done perfectly. Very few songs are boomy and I can use them totally flat with zero EQ. UDUD is how I have them set, and I see no need to adjust it.
Hey... How are castors in comparison with the new KZ zsn pro 2 or the pro x
Brother, I'm trying to buy an iem for the first time. My budget is under 2000. I saw your reviews on kz castor as well as on tangzu wan'ner. Now I'm confused which one should I buy. Please give me a suggestion.
TANGZU WAN'ER is a safe bet.
KZ Castor sounds more dynamic.
What IEM would you recommend for gaming for fps games? I have seen the tangzu wan'er sg, kz caster and 7hz zero 2. I can't decide between these 3 which one i should buy
I bought these iems today I play PUBG and BGMI will not recommended this for gaming because it has too much bass Even with tuning footsteps sounds are not clear...I will use it for another week and update..
I am surprised how 300 - 600 Rs headphones have better directional Audio for gaming than these 1600 iems
@@shrayandevadiga995 okay, i am waiting
I'm also thinking of buying these for BGMI, is the directional sounds bad and footsteps not clear? Have you tried turning the 1,2 switches off and 3,4 on. Should I buy the normal Castor (without bass boosted one) or go for any other headphones @@shrayandevadiga995
Hi brother thanks for the video cleared my mind but i have to ask you about one thing before buying should i purchase this or kz zsn pro 2 what should be the better option in all over comparison
I haven't used the ZSN PRO 2 so can't give you an accurate opinion.
@@Purecast9 what about KZ zsn pro x and castor?
@@nimishjaiswal9399 I'd prefer the Castor as it gives me the option to tune.
The ZSN PRO X is fine but sibilance might be an issue for some.
@@Purecast9 thanks you brother for the reply and suggestion❤
@@Purecast9 brother just last question should I buy astell and kern xb10 Or the dac you used in this video?
How are these for gaming.. ( i have ear irritation problem when listening to higher frequency
For gaming these will do.
If you want something that doesn't have harshness then ARTTI T10 is great. You can watch my review for a better idea.
@@Purecast9 k thanks for suggestions
kz castor vs kz zsn pro x which is better?
Castor.
It lets you fine tune to a degree and that helps in reducing the sibilance that is prevalent on the ZSN PRO X.
Then again,if sibilance is not a huge deal breaker, then the ZSN PRO X is mighty impressive.
And castor vs krila, sir?
@@Play4FUNGaming castor, krila is outdated
Would the new KZ ZS10 PRO 2 be a better option, I want a decent one with satisfying base as my first Iem.
Imho, even the ZSN series are satisfying base options already (mine is ZSN Pro, lasts for 4+ years in my case).
So I believe the ZS10 series will not fail you.
can connect with Bluetooth?
No
Bro I am little confused, treble, vocals, bass which is good in these IEMs, I am currently using Kz zex, is this better than that? can I upgrade to these?
ZEX is fine,but they are a bit sibilant.
These give you a bit of control to handle that sibilance.
The bass is also deeper on these.
Very good review, Friend 👍
KZ Castor or the Qkz X HBB? Since they are available at similar price during the conceptkart sale
@@archisman_ghosh i haven't tried the latter so can't comment.

Have you tried converting it to BT IEM using the module? Any feedback?
