The lack of mesh over the ear hole is a better design shared by high end multi driver IEM's. The reason for this is the mesh would muffle high frequencies more than low frequencies. So with multiple drivers all properly balanced, you wouldn't want to muffle one of them more than the other, if that makes sense. 😁 If they did have a mesh they would probably sound muffled ,much more suppressed highs, and much less clarity at the upper frequencies. Each driver would need it's own mesh to take into account the dampening effect of the sound passing through an object (the mesh). 😁 Hope this clears things up and was helpful. Took me ages to discover this with multi driver IEM's over the years. 😅
As someone who has been into moderately high end home audio for 50 years and has done semi-pro FoH mixing, and amateur musician, I was looking for a good in-ear monitor. These are amazing for the money. Are they a Westone clone for a 10th price. No. But they kill my $150 Shure in-ears for both sound and fit. These maybe best fitting in-ears I've tried. The KZ's definitely can do low end. I love how the are not bright or edgy. Unlike the reviewer, I may prefer the midrange dip. I'd say you can't go wrong w/ these. I've seen US vendors going as low as $40. I paid $60 and am happy.
I just listened to same song using my high end Merlin studio monitors and and outboard amp. The KZ does play to the 'polite' slide by rolling off some upper mid and highs. They are not ruler flat in response, so I can see the reviewers gripe. But they are very pleasant sounding, and again....the fit is just spot on. And cheap!!
Are you sure about AS10s having less mids? The website says they bring out more mids, because they tuned it like that. And I just got an AS16 which has a lot of high mids so I assumed it will be the similar story for AS10s.
I play drums. Just got mine. I bought the upgraded cable also. I like them better than my Westone um 50 pro’s. Now I Can’t believe I spent all that money on the Westone’s.
@@Assimilator702 As someone who cleans their ears daily when im in with a washcloth and get out of the shower with qtips i still have buildup in my airpods or whatever inears i use. Ears are dirty and id honestly be worried if mine didn't produce wax at that rate considering the wax is whats protecting my drums.
Remember that ALL speakers, headphones, earplugs etc need to be "played in" (I don't know the correct english word) atleast 25 hours before the sound starts getting better or optimal. That includes electrostat, balanced armature etc. I had to play normal volume on my speakers for about 10å hours before the sound really changed and got even better. Also: Never play at max volume before the got a chance to worm up. That also goes for amps. And remember: For speakers it's better to have too much power than too little. To little power is what usually kills the treble drivers. And watt is not just watt on a amp.. Some messure it the wrong way (ex: 1ch driven at 6ohm and 1kHz) and some messure it the right way (all ch driven at 8ohm and 20-20.000Hz). It makes a HUGE difference. 100 "fake watts" are weaker than 40 "real watts"
I am honestly done with buying earphones. I have bought so many KZ earphones it is pretty much ridiculous. :-D AS10s are the only ones which fit me perfectly and I am very happy with those. These are really different from the rest of the line up. I thought they were muddy and then I realized they are flatter then any other KZ IEMs, especially coming from KZ ZS6 which have quite a steap V shaped signature. The mids really are emphasized more in this case and I got used to them quickly. I like them a lot. :-)
Shantanu Kandari your best option is to order them from Aliexpress on 11th of November(global sale)...Coz it is priced insanely high in India....HPZ sells it for around 6000rs while their true price is close to 2800 rs....and on sale you might get it close to 2200 so nearly three times less price...Also, if you are worried about the warranty, well buy 3 of these for the price of 1 I am sure they will last longer😂😂✌🏻
Great review once again! Looking forwards to some more details on options for Bluetooth conversion of wired headsets and relative issues that will arise from it.
I am looking for a headphone with bass that punches like beats by dre but with more synth and sub bass and mid bass rumbling, combined with crystal clear quality accross the board, with pristinely clear highs but treble shouldnt be higher the S Think Powerbeats 3/Monster punch, Improved Clarity of KZ ZS10 Pro, with rumbling bass from some other headphone which does that well. Any suggestions? I only use IEM/Ear Buds never on ear or over ear as I can never stand wearing those.
Hey, I've used trn v80 for quite some time. Every day at the gym. I've never had a problem with them. In fact, among several earphones (zs5, zs10, tin t2, cca c10, great memt x5) were the ones I chose to use.
I just got a pair of KZ AS-10 and impressed by its deep bass. But my pair seems have very high sensitivity. I only only need several clicks of volume on my MacBook to make it sounds really loud. Could anyone also have KZ AS-10 verify it is normal for this IEM? Thanks ☺️
Dude nice review but i am stuck between es4 and as10. I record and mix amateurly. So i need more referance, flat sounding earbuds but i wanna listen to music too. What is your thoughts?

I love the clarity that comes out of my ZS6s, but the highs are really irritatingly strong 😕 You always have to mess with EQ tuning to save your drums from tearing in high volume levels. Other than that I'm always amazed with the sound detail you can get for such a price!
i just ordered two kz from china, the as10 (got them for 66 bucks) and the Es4 (i got them on sale too, only 20 bucks), i cant' wait to test them!. In much reviews that i saw they all say that the ear plugs are terrible, and that foam ones really helps the sound, is this true for you? are stock earplugs that bad?
Yes. In my opinion, they all kz eartips are towards the harder end, compared to stock tips that come along with other brands. I recently got a pair of TFZ series 2 and the stock eartips are great compared to the ones i got with my KZ ZS5.
agreed with most of what you said. The AS10's for me are bright. The scoop is the mid's is not much but its enough for me to complain that these are not as balanced in the different spectrums. I prefer the sound of the ZS10 Pro's. Although, I do think the sound stage on the AS10 is wider than the ZS10Pro. The ear port with no grill is a moot point if you use Comply tips. Simply get the version with wax guard. Going to try to ZS7 next. Thoroughly impressed with KZ so far. While the AS10 is not to my liking due to the tuning the 10Pro's are allot closer to my $800 in-ears from 64 Audio.
I've collected almost every KZ earphone until the AS10, but my personal favourite is still the ED16. The bass on the AS10 isn't as deep and "thump" as the ED16 and the highs isn't "sparkling bright" as I would like. It is also quite bulky like my ZS5 but is way more comfortable than the ZS5. The AS10 is relatively easy to drive even with my Huawei Mate 20. I would personally recommend the ED16 if you can still find them due to the comfort and price.
The more I listen, the more I like studio monitors tuned for that kind of frequency response. Like my M6Pro. They don't sound "juicy", the highs can be a bit shrill on an aggressive mix, but voices ring pretty clear for me.
Hi I'm your subscriber from India. I want to buy KZ zs5 for my OnePlus6..is it a good decision or will you suggest something better...?? I'm looking for good bass and clear sound output Thanks in advance
Hi friend! I've bought this KZ earphones, so it's my first experience using this brand. My doubt is... When I am using these earphones I notice a background noise, like a rain. That happens when I set the volume less than 40 percent, being this more annoying at lower volume. I don't know if it is normal, I'm using these earphones by first time and I'm trying to burn in them as recommended (starting with low volume). I appreciate your help, your opinion based on your experience. Thank you so much!
Have you tried the Dolby Atmos app for headphones? its a game changer along with a high quality source and a good dac/amp. Also I have the LG V60 so I love great music on the go.
I have these and I completely agree with Juan here. They are amazing, but the lack of mids really hurts the quality here. As a guitar player who listens for guitar parts and needs these for onstage use. Besides that, these sound great!
HyperGadgets Try a set of KZ ZS10 PRO. They sell for around $45 on Amazon and they are a serious competition for some $140 competitors. Grab a desert of ZSNPRO for the beach of it for $21.
I bought this a few months ago after seeing your review with the kz es4, thinking if juan is giving raving praise to a $20 earphone, maybe a step up would would be worlds better, I was choosing between the as10 and zs10, and reading other reviews, i actually dont understand all these hifi talk, I just wanted a full bodied good sounding headphone, with that said, it was ok. I was hoping to be blown away with the base, the clarity, the separation of instruments but it was just ok. I also have those $70 sennheiser earphones and it is more of my taste, so in the end is hifi music all about your taste? Am I just a bass junkie?
--Sounds-- like they would benefit from some 'Comply Comfort+' (with Waxguard) earphone tips... I didn't see the practicality of that feature when I first got them but now they come to mind cause of the lack of grill. I recently got an LG g8(labeled fair but its a conservative description cause its light brassing at worst and hardly noticeable sbi for $169) and few different pairs of iem: Revonext QT5 with 1DD & 1BA(for $14) KZ ES4(for $18) BQEYZ K2 with 2DD & 2BA(for $16) & CCA C10 (for $31) Technically i got the the ES4 for my wife but the other ones stood out because of their coupons & associated reviews being so good(all with Amazon 1 day to boot).
For those people who are using a phone without a headphone jack, I'd recommend the kz usb c cable to go with this. The built in dac inside the cable opens up the sound even more and boosts the clarity and soundstage even more.
@@SomeGadgetGuy yes there is no mic but the audio quality makes up for it or for atleast me. I'm not much of an audiophile but even with my average listening capabilities, I could discern the difference. Please check it out and make an update video if you feel the difference.
These or the fiio fa1?? Man i miss u on pocket now... ur reviews on mobile phones.. man ..u were the best reviewer on that channel .. but u r here now so yup...
You can easily find em for around 40$. Hope they won't snap in your ear)) AS10 is awesome(AAAWWWESSOMMME!), also recommend you to check out KZ ZSN - insane sound and build quality for ~15$. Cheers
Can you please review the 1MORE Triple or Quad Driver In-Ear Headphones, please. I personally own the Triple Drivers and I think they are very underrated headphones that tend to be overshadowed by more popular and expensive models from Beats, Bose, Sennheiser, and more. They only cost around $80-100, but they are Hi-Res and THX certified, which I noticed that more expensive headphones don't have. Also, what you get in the box (multiple sets of eartips, leather case, etc.) is incredible
You've probably never listened to headphones with dedicated hardware to boost those frequencies. Imagine you've only used a TV with Red and Blue sub-pixels. When you move to a proper Red/Blue/Green display, then grass would look unnaturally green.
@@SomeGadgetGuy i was thinking about that too, but the piercing sound(high) sometimes cover the other sounds(low and mid detail?) , again total noob here
The system works. Make a universally standard (and un-license-able port) a little more difficult to use, and you can nudge a consumer over to a more expensive solution which will wear out sooner because of the extra parts like radios and batteries.
Get a LG V60 if you don't care about 5g get the v35, or V40. The LG V60 I literally consider to be one of the best smartphones made to date and not just because the quad DAC. It literally has the better call quality and reception of any phone I tried to date. I have a iPhone 13 pro and couldn't even get good quality signal when tower was bad in area. The LG v60 worked flawlessly the whole time. Plus sound quality like HD vs the iPhone that at time sounded as if you are under a tunnel. Then look at the design and you see the porting on the mics are deeper to help prevent dirt built up and literally uses 4 separate mics some for noise cancelling and etc. The internal speakers are better then any android phone I tried over the years and yes true stereo separation unlike most that put both speakers at the bottom. Just the design and hardware is better. Only thing wish was they when with a 120hz display but to me not really a big deal. To bad LG not making phones anymore. I believe the G4 and V10 kill their reputation and they never recovered but honestly they made way better phones then Samsung does currently. The Asus ROG 5 is flawed as currently have one a Wifi stopped working and second replacement doesn't power up correctly all the time. I do believe it fault of the Snapdragon 888 as work on phones and seen same issues with customers Samsung s21 the 8 one that came in with same issues, where I have to hard reboot them as overheats. I wish I could just return it. The LG v60 never failed me as of yet and is my daily for very reason. Not the prettiest and huge but works the best and reliable.
imo the ZS10 is more 'normal' I'd say, because it's still has 1 dynamic driver it sounds more realistic. BAs can make some type of tunes sound artificial, the sub bass of AS10 tho.... it's crazy deep, it goes so low the kick drums sounds like someone actually kicking you in the ear.
I actually have the ZST Pro's and they're a bit more colored than the ES4, at least with my ears. They definitely have good bass presence without being too boomy though I'd use the ES4 if I wanted to edit footage and not use headphones and not the ZST Pro's
Don’t know personally but I think that they have been stacked as too bright. The kz are flatter and can be amped or equed easily to your sound. Still waiting to probe this theory though. Waiting for mine to arrive.
The issue with your statement is traditionally if someone is paying high dollar for a IEM or earphone with multiple drivers, they are going to be expensive (usually) and the company is going to value build quality over looks. If looks mean more than quality and audio to you, buy beats or some other high price headphones that are made to look cool.
KZ continues to impress! Great review Juan.
Seriously impressive hardware.
The lack of mesh over the ear hole is a better design shared by high end multi driver IEM's. The reason for this is the mesh would muffle high frequencies more than low frequencies.

Are they really noise cancelling ? Or they are lying ???
You sir have a well modulated voice and it's nice to hear you speak. Great review btw.
Been ripping off voice actors for years now ;-)

Deep V sounds is what I use on all my head phones. It's the most balanced IMO.

I have these. The highs are ridiculously harsh.
which is better kz as10 or ba10 please reply so confused...
As10 probably
Great review, great discussion about the characteristics and breakdown.
I wonder if one can put some wire gauze or mesh in the ear tubes

Can you recommend an iem good for vocals, not necessarily only budget options. Thank you...
I love the clarity that comes out of my ZS6s, but the highs are really irritatingly strong 😕 You always have to mess with EQ tuning to save your drums from tearing in high volume levels. Other than that I'm always amazed with the sound detail you can get for such a price!
Yeah, KZ hardware is crazy for the price, but it often requires a little bit of an assist in tuning.
i just ordered two kz from china, the as10 (got them for 66 bucks) and the Es4 (i got them on sale too, only 20 bucks), i cant' wait to test them!. In much reviews that i saw they all say that the ear plugs are terrible, and that foam ones really helps the sound, is this true for you? are stock earplugs that bad?

Audiology your view on it?
I've collected almost every KZ earphone until the AS10, but my personal favourite is still the ED16. The bass on the AS10 isn't as deep and "thump" as the ED16 and the highs isn't "sparkling bright" as I would like. It is also quite bulky like my ZS5 but is way more comfortable than the ZS5. The AS10 is relatively easy to drive even with my Huawei Mate 20. I would personally recommend the ED16 if you can still find them due to the comfort and price.
If u want mid centric sound
Try the kz as06
Tfz s2
And tin hifi t2 or if u want more micro detail then t2 pro
The more I listen, the more I like studio monitors tuned for that kind of frequency response. Like my M6Pro. They don't sound "juicy", the highs can be a bit shrill on an aggressive mix, but voices ring pretty clear for me.
Are they bassy tho? Since they don't have dynamic driver
THey don't get rumbly no. There's an articulate and fast bass sound, but there isn't as much decay and sub bass rumble.
do you think it is good for bedroom producer mixing on laptop/ableton? thank you. :D
I think it'll be fine, especially not being too bass heavy, but i would spend a little time playing with the EQ to minimize the mid cut.
Hi I'm your subscriber from India.
I want to buy KZ zs5 for my OnePlus6..is it a good decision or will you suggest something better...??

Noice!
How are they? And is the durability good
Same , it's so amazing for chiptune
Do they have sibilance ??
@@jobmunywoki7077 Not at all
Great, but pointless. The diameter of the speaker doesn't matter at this size and the Doppler effect won't work at these excursions.

From your description it sounds like you should try Brainwavz B400. Quad Balanced Armature for 170 - 200 dollar. The mids are so nice.
You should check out the KZ ZSR I'm picky with audio, and they sound good on my v40 with enhanced eq setting.
love the OK GO videos
I've been watching them with Lex. She LOVES the car mix for Needing/Wanting.
Where do i recognize your voice from?
🤔
Probably my awesome CZcams channel? Or Newegg? Or fox 11 in LA? Or PocketNow?
This or the Symphonized 3.0?
Maaaaan, you have to review kz zsn as well as kz zsn pros.
please review Jabra Elite 65t and let us know what you think!
A great matchup for the KZ As10 are the Tin Audio T2 Pros
mine arrived 2 hours ago. listening with mi note 4x via joox, why it has so much piercing sound? noob here.
You've probably never listened to headphones with dedicated hardware to boost those frequencies. Imagine you've only used a TV with Red and Blue sub-pixels. When you move to a proper Red/Blue/Green display, then grass would look unnaturally green.
@@SomeGadgetGuy i was thinking about that too, but the piercing sound(high) sometimes cover the other sounds(low and mid detail?) , again total noob here
$41 only in Asia.
These newer phones are killing my thirst for wired earbuds
The system works. Make a universally standard (and un-license-able port) a little more difficult to use, and you can nudge a consumer over to a more expensive solution which will wear out sooner because of the extra parts like radios and batteries.
LG v40 is a must.
Get a LG V60 if you don't care about 5g get the v35, or V40. The LG V60 I literally consider to be one of the best smartphones made to date and not just because the quad DAC. It literally has the better call quality and reception of any phone I tried to date. I have a iPhone 13 pro and couldn't even get good quality signal when tower was bad in area. The LG v60 worked flawlessly the whole time. Plus sound quality like HD vs the iPhone that at time sounded as if you are under a tunnel. Then look at the design and you see the porting on the mics are deeper to help prevent dirt built up and literally uses 4 separate mics some for noise cancelling and etc. The internal speakers are better then any android phone I tried over the years and yes true stereo separation unlike most that put both speakers at the bottom. Just the design and hardware is better. Only thing wish was they when with a 120hz display but to me not really a big deal.
To bad LG not making phones anymore. I believe the G4 and V10 kill their reputation and they never recovered but honestly they made way better phones then Samsung does currently. The Asus ROG 5 is flawed as currently have one a Wifi stopped working and second replacement doesn't power up correctly all the time. I do believe it fault of the Snapdragon 888 as work on phones and seen same issues with customers Samsung s21 the 8 one that came in with same issues, where I have to hard reboot them as overheats. I wish I could just return it. The LG v60 never failed me as of yet and is my daily for very reason. Not the prettiest and huge but works the best and reliable.
Remember the founder is also a sound engineer of Audio Technica
Thank you Juan!
Make a KZ comparison: ZS10 vs. AS10
imo the ZS10 is more 'normal' I'd say, because it's still has 1 dynamic driver it sounds more realistic. BAs can make some type of tunes sound artificial, the sub bass of AS10 tho.... it's crazy deep, it goes so low the kick drums sounds like someone actually kicking you in the ear.
As10 is the best
Please review the Tin Audio T2s...
What about tin audio t2?
Could you review the Bluetooth adapter? Please.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thanks. I'm interested in some lower cost KZ? But I don't want to deal with dongles. I like Bluetooth.
We appreciate the sacrifice you had to make at the pickle expense if your ears good sir! o7
As10 or 1more triple in ears? Please respond Juan!😁
I bet the 1More have fuller bass. That might be the deciding factor depending on what tuning you like.
I was thinking of 1 more but the reviews are damming on their cabling and duds. Don’t want to get into that. Detachable cables always.
@@psysword For sure
Check out the new kz zs7 they may have fixed some of the issues you had with the as10
Thank you! :-)
👍🙂
How about the real cheap option from kz like zst pro?
Might be fun to compare against the ES4 and ATE I've already reviewed...
I actually have the ZST Pro's and they're a bit more colored than the ES4, at least with my ears. They definitely have good bass presence without being too boomy though I'd use the ES4 if I wanted to edit footage and not use headphones and not the ZST Pro's
But how do they stack against the m6pros
Well I certainly wouldn't use these for work...
Don’t know personally but I think that they have been stacked as too bright. The kz are flatter and can be amped or equed easily to your sound. Still waiting to probe this theory though. Waiting for mine to arrive.
No they are not good unless you use a lot of equalization. Upper mids and treble is not in balance with the rest of the sound.
Comply Foam Tips with ear wax guard. done.
Yeah... I need to grab some of those... Sigh...
kz as10 or m6 pro ?
Do you want a more entertaining and colorful sound, or a flatter more accurate sound?
How about the C10?Can you introduce us with C10?
Got these for 40 bucks at the swap meet
LEGEND.
😃👍
Can you review the Tfz Exclusive 5
I've got a LONG list of headphones coming up. I'll check them out. :-)
Review TFZ S2 next please. Thanks.
if you like mids YOU GOT TO TRY THE FIIO FH5, believe me when i say these are the best sub 500$ mid centric iems!!
Those do look tasty. I think a hybrid combo probably provides the best balance of features and sound representation.
@@SomeGadgetGuy yeah BUT the isolation is average not isolating my ears perfectly but still a great sound
hope they can change the looks of these earbuds.
W8ting Simulator just get your own earbuds
@@Mothlover69 I guess a good looking product is just too much to ask as a consumer.
W8ting Simulator this is a Chinese company, not apple. Everything that you payed for is going directly to those iems
And how did this affect the looks of these earbuds? It's not like KZ don't make any good looking earbuds, they have many good looking earbus.
The issue with your statement is traditionally if someone is paying high dollar for a IEM or earphone with multiple drivers, they are going to be expensive (usually) and the company is going to value build quality over looks. If looks mean more than quality and audio to you, buy beats or some other high price headphones that are made to look cool.
Review tin audio T2
Dual drivers, looks tasty...
@@SomeGadgetGuy actually Tin Audio T2 PRO... Better than T2
@@bencherian t2 pro has Alot more highs
@@SomeGadgetGuy it's a dual dynamic driver iem which is one of the best chi-fi iem and dosent need multiple drivers to make a great sound
@@SomeGadgetGuy tin audio t2 is the best iem under 50 usd till date . u can watch Z review about this one
I just got a pair a couple of weeks ago, and they have ruined all other earphones for me.
These multi-drivers are REALLY fun!
You should try KZ ZSN!
I should :-)
I like to tell you try more Chi-fi. Like BGVP - BM6 and BMG
I'll add them to the list :-)
@@SomeGadgetGuy am sure you will love it
i found this for $40. crazy price
right earphone just died, only 3 months of use, I'm the only one?
KZ AS10 is a garbage of sound. Horrible sound. Very harssy. It´s only another "oriental" cheap product.
