Or Amazon:

And look into a good pair of Eartips: or a variety of them like the NewBee Ear Tips:
amzn.to/2xvelL3 (amazon)
goo.gl/RJgzvG (Gearbest)
or the comply eartips are really nice they fit nicely but once on and you can't take them off unless you decide to ruin them.

TechManZ I have a problem - I can't plug in cable and I don't have other earphones
Hey, just wanna update, my order of ZS6 arrived today. It's better than the ZS5, but not by much/far. It's a lot more comfortable in the ears tho, far different compared to the ZS5. It stays in my ears without feeling any pressures from sharp edges, like what ZS5 does. It's kinda like the ZS5 is the 'beta version', just to test the waters, and ZS6 is the final product.
Sound-wise, it's similar to ZS5, but with fuller mid frequencies, and a bit wider soundstage.
Burn-ins are debatable, even until today. I personally don't believe in burn-ins. But even if, say, burn-ins are true, it only works for drivers with diaphragms, like dynamic and planar drivers. Balanced armatures (which in ZS5's case, handles the mids and highs) don't benefit from burn-ins, coz of the way they work and create sounds (they don't have diaphragms).
If the highs are too much, you can 'tame' it by using a good foam tip, like comply. Oh and the 'ssssss' sound you were referring to, the technical term for that is 'sibilance' :)
Thank you for mentioning the difficulty of getting the wires into the holes. I had the same issue and thought I had a defective pair. I was in the process of returning them. After watching your video, I used my earrings to expand the holes and now the wire fits inside. Thank you for your review.
Damn you're so soft spoken, it's like this is an ASMR channel lol.
I'm really interested to see the KS6 reviews, they've been available from say Aliexpress now for about 2 weeks (since it takes 2-6 weeks to arrive to the USA no one has reviewed them yet), but they're a 4 driver unit EXCEPT they have small slots for airflow for the subwoofers, are actually CNC machined aluminum cases, and they are held together with 3 small screws. I'm curious if they'll actually be more durable and feel considerably better than these, or if they'll in fact just be so heavy they're painful or fall out. There are small resonance chambers in the KS6 as well whereas the KS5s are just all open internally, so in the KS6 there's an effort being made to sort of funnel the frequencies to get the sound quality as close to perfect as they can. These improvements have me very curious to know how good they might be.
Hehe. My voicebox is either deep or lacking in highs :).
I'm curious as well- i'll have to add them to my list. Sounds like a polished upgraded zs5 to me, though, tbh, i'm not too crazy about the metal shells (if they have them, that is.)
Cables: Mine ZS5 came with low volume and poor quality in general, but would sound ok with iPad. Swapped cable by those of a ZS3, quality improved a lot! Will buy silver plated cables one day.
I had found the same problem with the plug when I first plugged them in. I ended up forcing them and never having the problem again.
I've had no issue with the fit. A big complaint a lot of people have found discomfort with the geometric edges, but they are honestly amazing fit.
Great accurate review. Just as I would review these. Bass is on the low side. The 'S's are a bit overemphasized but crisp sounding. You'll need to play with the eq settings to get a balanced sound. Not very comfortable to keep on on the long run. But good value for the price you pay for these.
Many Thanks for the review. Ever tried VJJB N1 or K4? I believe you'll love it. Sub bass is crazy good in those iems.
I did a slight mod to increase the impedance.... The sibilance is gone... Sounds like a 500$ iem now.... The mod is to buy a two pin to mmcx adapter and use a mmcx cable that you may have .... the original cable sucks
I've heard from other reviews the cable and tips that come with the ZS5s are bad, might buy these later but just thought I'd throw that out. Great review btw :)
thats true, get silver cable asap and you'll hear huge diffrence
I was waiting for this
I bought a ZS3 for myself and I also struggled to fit the 2 pin connector to the earphone input. I even used some rubber gloves to try to force the pins in. Now the earphones are connected and are fine and dandy. I just worry for the time these wires break and I might need to go through the same hard process of fitting the new wire back in. You're not alone man
Do they sound like they are completely worth it or no ?.... I also do unboxings and reviews I’m a tech channel and I was wondering if I should buy multiple colors of these.
The bass on these earphones is actually very good (tight and rumbly) but they are very dependant on the tips that you use. Even if you have a good seal, the bass can still be lacking. When you are choosing an ear tip, try to use a pair that keeps the same diameter as the port on the earphone. When my tips had a smaller inner diameter than the port, it seemed to lack bass.The stock silicone tips never really worked well for me.
Have you found any replacements for the ear Inserts for these particular headphones. I recently got these headphones and didn’t have as much trouble putting the cord in as you did. Also for what are use these headphones for the Lowe’s were actually a huge benefit because of me being giging musician.
I wrote a short article if you want to check it out and let me know what you think
Thanks for the review.
In a bassheads point of view, what is the best bassy cheap earphone for you without sacrificing the clarity and detail? Thanks.
From my experience, Jbl t110 or kz zs3 perhaps. Do an audition first from store that sell them is recommended.
nice reviews you are doing . as you experienced with lot of kz models ,which one do you prefer to us,?
Thank you! So far, my favourites are the KZ ZST.
Thank you for your favor.
definitely had the same issue with not being able to get one of the plugs to connect with the cord. Still trying to solve this.
More burning, also recommended the alternative Cables sold on Amazon for 10 dollars which are more durable and a lot more comfortable over the ear ....
Thanks for another review. Please review the BlitzWolf BW-ES1 graphene iem's and... when a review of a budget headphone amp? :)
My cables connected easier than the others KZ’s, one of the problems with cheaper products I guess, inconsistent.
I agree with the fit, I little bulky and boxy.
Also agree with the sound quality 👍🏼
I will have to check out those tips because I agree, they aren’t the best and if you don’t get a good seal you loose all the bass.
CallaghanReviews isnt the soundstage on zst supposed to be worse than zs5?
Nicholas Wee yes, I believe the ZS5 has a bigger sound stage. I think this is a pretty accurate review though
@@callaghanreviews3338 so is the comfortness(iritate the ear)?
I purchased the KST on yours and other recommendations and also the bluetooth headset from gear best... the bluetooth headset is a piece of shyte, mabe bad bad product can hardly hear my music... but the IEM's good still trying to compare the to my Inked...
good Video Tape, keep them coming....
The bluetooth adapter for the kz zst??
So, what the type of KZ that have the great bass quality output (for bass lover) ? KZ ZST Pro ?
Nice review, can't wait for your next update review about these. By da way,are u F1 fans,coz sometimes when i watching your videos,u have a similar look like Daniel Ricciardo,F1 driver. Anyway thanks for the review.
+Samuel Sam haha. I definitely see the resemblance!
im using a Dac Amp, and it sounded good! Soft deep bass when using dac amps. try it!
Fit wise, its fine for me. I don't smile a lot(Yes Im a sad person) so it doesn't really fall off my ears. Also the high pitch S and bass disappeared when the silver cable and it got a proper burning.
Can it be comfortable with C shape wire....
Hi TechManZ great video!! I ordered the KZ ZS3, and I am still waiting for it to arrive, do you have it? If you do, what is your experience on using one?? Thanks in advance!!
Review coming up for the KZ ZS3!
TechManZ ok mate thanks!!
Plz can someone tell me what is better the zsn or zs5 ??
Zsn
I think they have a pretty cool product with a decent price but they do need to work on some things and definitely should listen to Consumers
requires more burning, i tried it first time i unbox, and after i burn. 180degree difference
i own one and still use them for daily drive earphone.
i like deep bass and a detailed sound. this IEM gives me that. it also depends on the music player.
the bass is very deep and it doesn't muddy the other instrument.
So the T8s is better than these? The T8s has triple drivers and they sounds amazing.
I'm not sure. Haven't tested them out or compared the 2.
I had no problems with the cable... i mean its not that easy but it could go with a little effort.
The sound quality is alright. The cable and the built quality is very bad, I almost thought I brought a fake one from gearbest. However, I can understand what you pay is what you get, for such cheap price I should not expect anything too fancy, but I do regret of buying this earphone
i see your review i wish i see it before i buy em,i buy once from gearbest and i lost the left one when i was riding my bike when someone wave me the earphone flew way because of luck of the clip was to lose i had the bluetooth cable i got a new one kz zs5 and now i don't go out with them because of afraid lose em again so i think the main problem is the connection for me is way to lose and very easy to lose them .. so i have 1 right and 1 set of kz zs5 pass that to them that sound put some clip or more secure connection on the earphones. nice review cheers from uk
Zs6 was released recently, please do a review:)
Zs6 review is up
can u review the kz ed9 hifi bass?
I have them here with me, need to find the time- but eventually will be getting to it!
TechManZ when review of ed9 comes ? Please put short comparison between ed9 and zst, i like ed9 micro details and mid freq, but high is little bit too much for my taste.
Thanks :)
In terms of base which kz is good within $18
Wow. This Gearbest place... they're taking cheap to the next level lol. Less than $20 for the KS5s... even on Aliexpress they're 36. I don't know if that's because they've seen a spike in popularity or if it's because they're buying in bulk from other Chinese manufacturers and are willing to take less profit than the sellers on Aliexpress or what, but that's a substantial difference and makes the KS5s 1000% best bang for the buck headphones as far as IEM sound quality goes.
I'm sorry, but I'm convinced many of the issues you talk about are specific to you. You complained about the KS6's, which I think are great IEM's (I've got two pairs) and I'm not a treble head at all, in fact I love good low extension. Everything you've said about both IEM's, suggests to me that you either have very non standard ears, or simply not spending enough time getting a good seal. Maybe your ear shape just does not work with IEM's .
5 Red Lights You do realize he specifically stated on the ZS6, along with other reviews he has made, his ears are larger.
Good point. So he obviously requires a CIEM solution for his ''unique' ear type. Maybe he should stop reviewing standard IEM's altogether, as I feel he may not be able to give an accurate review, because of his extra large ear canal size.
Can i know what kz have the high bass iem?
Thanks
Most of them- but the ones that come to mind off the top of my head are: Zst pros, ZSN, Ba10, as10
As10 have the punchiest bass.
Thanks and more power
2:39 that was too far lol.
that happened to me on the ZS3.
is this a good choice under 22$ ?
If you're ok with the bright sound signature- but Better spend a few dollars more for the KZ ZS6
Check my twitter for the link with coupon code for it. It seems like the coupon is still valid, if i'm not mistaken
I am from Bangladesh in my country KZ ZS6 is 36.51$. & KZ ZS5 is 21.91$. is KZ ZS6 that much better........?
If I had to choose between the 2 of them- yes.
thanks bro
6:09 "bass heavy fan" - talking about sound quality? yeah right. they need a good amp to show what they can, not a phone.
KZ eartips is not comfortable.. very stiff and it comes off my ear all the time..
Los acabe regalando
This vs zst pro?
Which one is brighter and more open and natural sounding?
I'll take the Zst's over these any day.
KZ zs6 pls....
Zs6 review is up!
Vocals were "too high" ?????
As in piercing.

I would take the Zs3's over these any day.
