KZ - ZVX Pro

o i had a stroke wtf i read that as truthear pure in your title lol gates are a great set yes. kz zvx pro i've personally been also using and I'm very surprised at all the things you mentioned really . detail, imaging, clarity these were able to provide + full metal build quality for like 12$ if you want a set for the longrun and like a more vocal focused tuning then consider wan'er 2 if those are under 25$, great iem on their own (build quality is pretty cheap though) but you get an excellent cable plus and stellar set of included eartips that people go out of their way to buy on their own to use for much more expensive sets i'd personally take the cheaper zvx pro as its just a sidegrade to the gate but should be a good amount cheaper or spend abit more for the wan'er 2 for the great accessory package

if you have access to zvx pro i'd go for those otherwise i'd take the kz gale as a more balanced allrounder or caastor pro if you're a basshead

zvx pro are a great cheap allrounder kz am16 if you want to spend abti more

Under $10 the best is the KZ EDC PRO (edx pro is another iem), use it with Kbear 08 eartips. In Aliexpress (sometimes using coins) you can get for $8-15 the ND planet, KZ Castor Pro/OG, KZ Libra Balanced/Hi res/X, KZ Saga balanced/bass, KZ ZVX pro, all of them have good reviews and comments. The Kbear 07 and 08 eartips are good for them.

How have you been guys. Today, I'm going to review kz- zvx's follow-up, ZVX PRO. As you know, zvx was a huge hit at launch. I've witnessed several reviews saying "this iem shocked me" hmm.. so I bought it. It wasn't a price to think about for a long time. However, my experience with zvx wasn't very impressive. The high notes were too aggressive, the imaging was pretty good..but not very detailed. Of course, it was good for a five-dollar bill. Though it wasn't enough for me. And, the follow-up zvx pro I bought for $15 completely blew away my old experience. To help you understand, let's score S to D for each area of the iem. (B means at least average for price) Components: Typical KZ components. Not good for the price. Score - D Design: It's a design that immediately reminds me of og zvx. The difference is that it's more of a glossy texture. It's similar to the black version. It's a full metal shell, so it looks durable. The shell is small, and I like the fit. Score - A Bass: The bass is quite firm, and responsive. It doesn't just reverberate, it's easy to feel the texture. A good bass. Not suitable for Basshead, but it's never small in quantity. Score - A+ Mid: The vocal is not buried by the sound of instruments. If you concentrate, you can even hear the vocal's breathing sounds. Score - B Treble: Wow, the high notes are hardly tiring, and they are also firm and have a good tone. The vocal chisel is low. The air is also enough Score-A+ Instrument representation: The drum sounds are fun without being too sharp. Rumble is easily captured. The texture of the electric guitar is good. The texture of the bass guitar is good, too. The symbol spreads out slightly and is expressed nicely. Score - A Details: It's quite detailed for the price. It's a significant upgrade point from the Og version. Score - A Imaging: Imaging of the Zvx pro is literally the best. I can't find anything better at this price point. No doubt, the best thing about this product. Score - S Resolution: It has a good resolution for the price. For comparison, it's better than the kz saga and below the castor pro. If it's still not too complicated a track, it's easy to handle. Score - B+ Soundstage: Not as wide as like Castor pro harman, but it's easily acceptable at this price point. No complaints. Score- B In general, I chose the zvx pro as the "most valuable to buy" iem of the current Kz iems. (There's only a few of them on the list.) I've got so few iem in this price range that have this balanced yet robust sound. I highly recommend it for those who want to stay true to the basics and even experience surprises.

I already wrote a zvx pro review

Castor pro harman/bass, zvx pro..and both versions of vader.

KZ is at its best when they shoot for a more neutral sound, the ZVX pro is one of my all time fave KZ budget sets. I got mine for 7 bucks new, that’s a steal.

Ya just get the cable and if you want more bass get kz Saga, still clear mids and treble.. If you want better clarity extension and soundstage get new KZ ZVX Pro, many people here hate KZ, but these are the best value for money propositions on the market right now in the budget sector. Truly perform way above the price point. Kz has a new driver and new tuning guy, and they fired the old marketing manager, so improvements are coming quickly.

I am starting to think the driver has been changed for a cheaper one. Everyone who reviews this, besides the reviews when it first came out, describes a totally different sound to what I have. Mine was bought when it first came out, and is phenomenal. It's very hard to believe that I paid $14 for it, it's insane value for money. It's very clear, well controlled bass, very tight, quick, accurate, but not great quantity, the mids are open and textured with medium note weight , and the treble has great extension, cymbals and high hats sound natrul with natural attack and decay, soundstage is very good, very open. All in all it's very natural sounding and kills classical and jazz, but can be used for anything, bearing in mind it's a little light on mid bass.

You need to put a good cable and good tips or they don't sound very good. You need to review it after doing that, and giving it time to burn in. It's essentially perfect once set up right. One of the best I own at any price.

Oh that's what's going on. Mine is fabulous, it's a really great IEM, and a super bargain for the price. If it said moondrop on the box, o one would complain at $60.

Or, I don't know, just get a balanced cable and good eartips and burn it in properly? Blows away a any of the other 20 dollar stuff. If you get the original. This is a problem with KZ. Make it perfect, then revise it and ruin it.

If they sound good, reccomend them. Who cares about the company, you aren't getting married to it.

Inferior drivers. You will run up against its limits pretty quick. Two months max.

Over time these sorts of differences become bothersome, because, knowing kz, they have tuned an inferior driver to sound like ZVX. You will hear it over time and be dissapointed.

Kz ZVX Pro or PRX for a planar, these are simply brilliant sets. Stomp all over Cadenza.

Saga or ZVX pro.. Same driver, different tuning

One event where the guy who reported it ended up retracting because it didn't happen that way. Glue was getting in the driver's consistently on one model. So based on that, you 'boycot', when there is now KZ Am16, Zenith, ZVX Pro, and a while bunch of really good iem's for very small money for what you get. Well, it's you missing out. If you were not probably 17 years old, I would suggest you were a big cheerleader for the Iraq War, and probably still don't know there were no WMDs. Simple logic should tell you, if you put the drivers in, you have paid for them, so there is less then zero reason to leave them unwired. The whole issue is stupidity, typical sheeple stuff.

They aren't the only company to sell a five dollar version of a 20 dollar iem, with a slightly lower range driver in it. Which, believe it or not, is not illegal. In any country. Don't buy a five dollar ZVX pro. You will be fine. Buy the 20 dollar one. Again, you will be fine. You must be American, I swear, you guys think you are the moral and ethical judge of everyone and everything. I am not the judge of the world. I am the judge of what's in my hand. And my KZ stuff is really good. It's called Capitalism. Caveat Emptor. BTW, the five dollar version of ZVX pro has the Edx pro driver, and it sounds amazing for five dollars. Get off your high horse. I notice you are real quiet about the silent retune of the hidizs 145 planar. Which also involves some changes to the driver. But it's not KZ, so you don't know or care.

Nah, ZVX pro blows them out of the water, and build quality is far better on ZVX pro, solid metal well built

Get ZVX Pro instead, castor is overhyped, ZVX pro is kinda under the radar, it's real good

I did.. My comment wasn't even specifically to you, more of just a general comment, it's always the same little group of iem's, I suppose it's good for those companies, as I would suspect a big portion of noob purchases are one or the other of those. Above, I recommended the KZ ZVX Pro, and herewith I recommend the TRN Conch. They are both really very good.

I would recommend the KZ ZVX Pro, it's about the best they have in the ultra budget space, and frankly, it stomps all over wan'er and stuff like that, around $17, beautiful metal shell, very small and fits great. Keep trying different tips till you get something that works, but the black ones that come with it are actually alright.

This really depends on you. One thing is for sure, Reddit and YouTube videos mostly promote the same things over and over. If you are not intimately familiar with the equipment, you will be buying stuff that all sounds the same, and does not necessarily match your preferences in any way. Yes, a cheap over ear headphone can be more enjoyable then a cheap IEM. But not always. Again, you need to know what to get, and you won't find out on YouTube (unless you can listen to Russian, those guys just don't care, they don't like it, they say it's junk) But following advice online is a downer, and if you are new, it's very likely that your source, DAP or dongle, is nothing special. It's a hard hobby to get into, really. The best thing to do is get yourself to a big audio store and listen to all sorts of IEMs on all sorts of DAPs and dongles. In this market, there is no correlation between price and value received. None. My $17 KZ ZVX Pro out plays many $100 plus units, just as a random example. There is so much competition. It really doesn't take money to get great sound, it takes knowing your own preferences, avoiding the slew of Harman tuned sets that all sound the same, and knowing the tech, so you know what you are buying. ​Also, Eartips fit is the most important aspect of IEM use. Period. If it's wrong, it will sound like trash. If you buy right, $250 will give you amazing sound. Example, Hiby R3 pro 2, kz ZVX pro, kz prx. You got a good single dd, a good planar, and a good player. Sounds excellent and the Hiby unit has mseb, you can tune it how you want. For better sound then that you will spend $800 or so, and it's not four times better.

For balanced sound on a budget, KZ ZVX PRO, TRN MT5 (brighter neutral) Tripowin Vivace (bassy neutral) Truthear Gate, Tanchjim Bunny DSP (the usb c dsp gives it custom tuning presets) or Tanchjim Zero Ultima. A lot of good options, look into the accessories, looks, and tuning on [squig.link](https://squig.link) to figure out which ones right for you.

KZ ZVX PRO for 15$ is insane, or like other guy said EDC PRO/SGOR Venus for less than 10$ if u just wanna try ur first Iem.

Bro, I'm totally with you in your review of this iem, maybe it can share driver with other iems, but is another beast, an impressive iem who is punching above its price.

Is a 4.4 mm balanced plug, doesn't have a gnd in common, is for more power delivery, that ZVX pro don't need it, but I'm using it so...

Kz Zvx pro, kz zsn pro 2, cvj night elf, kz vader highres, trn v10 pro, trn v90 pro... The mt5 is all but analytical, is a reshell of the Orca but bad tuned lol.

I bought mine (ND planet) a few days ago so I'm waiting it to arrive the next week maybe?, the Orca is very capable in technicalities, but is not better than the V10 pro in this aspect, ZVX pro is a beast in technicalities maybe trading blows with the Vader HighRes (but the Vader is just in another league, is almost 90% of the CCA Hydro), maybe on pair with the V90 pro and Nightelf, and the ZSN pro 2 is perhaps the only on pair with the Orcas, but with a little more stage and imaging. Btw, i love my Orcas, and i hate my mt5, i know I'm crazy but whatevs ahaha. Cheers mate!

In this price range i think the 7hz Zero 2, KZ ZVX Pro, KZ Vader Balanced, CCA Trio and other gems, the 7hz is a conditional rec, is not for beginners, umm, the KZ ZSN pro 2 is also a nice rec. I think the BL03 II punches above its price, is trading blows with my Inawaken Dawn ms an Kefine Klean, is a iem who worth its price. The other color offered is clear silver, is beautiful. The DUNU dtc480 is driving even my hungry planars so well... Of course is more than enough for the BL03 II, the cirrus logic chip is excellent, the sound it produces is uncolored, so natural, so faithful to the music, is a very analytical dac/amp

Kz zvx pro but they are a little above

Bad PR history, and they did have a lot of 'misses' in the past. Some shops I know actively avoid them, not to boycott, but they are reluctant to deal with customer complaints about faulty units, when there is a good to fair chance its the 'fake drivers' shenanigans again. Plus every community need a heel, KZ plays that very well and keeps things exciting. It doesn't help that this community has an aversion to brands that pump out products very frequently, when in reality its a very respectable strategy. It allows non-enthusiasts to figure out their preference at a very low price. Imo recent KZ releases have been really good. I would have been a shill if they actually made shapes that can fit my ear without extensive tip rolling. Gale, Dawn, Zenith, Duet, ZVX Pro, Vader Pro, EDC Pro, all have been hits at their price brackets, and none of these are sets that you will feel pained if you end up misplacing them or damaging them by accident. I haven't tried the Hydro from their sister brand CCA, but some users have praised those sets into the high heavens. I unironically think KZ keeps the industry exciting. Having really respectable sets that can be priced similarly to a fancy meal should keep the other players nervous and honest.

The Zenith is the best one by a large margin for me, the Gale would be my second choice (EDX Pro 2 has the same tuning and about 2-3dB more bass, I prefer the balance of the Gale though, both are an incredible value for the price (+/-$8-9)). I have or had at some point the Hydro, PRX, Saga (both), Castor (both), Libra (hi-res and balanced), ZVX, ZVX Pro, Vader Balanced/Trio, ZS12 Pro X, EDC Pro, D-Fi and Polaris, of this sets I like the Saga Balanced the most.

Tbh nothing above kz zvx pro is worth at all. 10 euro and it's more than enough.

Best value? Given that I haven't tried the T10 (only the T10 Pro, which are fine), I cannot speak about them but many consider them the pinnacle of budget planars. Here's my (personal) value picks list from 0 to 150$ more or less (will also mention one planar for each bracket): 1. KZ ZVX Pro: it's just impossible to beat these, you can buy them for like 5$ at AliExpress with some coupons or welcome deals and you get all metal build, a well tuned set with decent technicalities for the price and something that, although not breaking the bank, will last long and you won't give a frick you somehow lose them since they cost like a cup of coffee. 2. Under 50: my favourite in terms of signature is the CCA Trio in the UUUU (or 1111) switches config, whereas the EW200 are what I would buy for a bit more resolution. The SGOR Luna and PRX are options as well, but they have some tonal quirks that may not appeal to you. 3. Under 100$: Juzear x Z Reviews Defiant for a versatile, punchy and tight set, Truthear HEXA for resolution, a neutral bright tonality and detail retrieval, Truthear PURE for a neutral/warm set with pretty thick lower end and non-fatiguing treble. Planars? Well, yeah, the F1 Pro for NiceHCK is very solid but it has a tinge of metallic timbre in the treble (other than that, it's SUPER solid). 4. Under 150$: Kefine Quatio for a thick and warm hybrid set with good technical chops, Tanchjim Fission for the best single DD experience and technicalities in this price range, along with an excellent neutral tuning (and some fine tuning thanks to the nozzle filters and bass screw). And then there are also many other sets that are worth a mention, such as the Wan'er S.G. II, the Kefine Klean, the Dunu Titan S2 and Kima 2, the Moondrop May, the AFUL Explorer... So many choices out there nowadays.

i bought kz zvx pro and tancjhim origin at the same time and yeah zvx pro are my daily driver…

KZ, CCA metal builds at that price point. Maybe the Saga, though I personallly will rec The ZVX Pro.

Just a few days in but I'm a fan on the kz zenith, and by extension since its magnitudes cheaper. The zvx pro

Basically this past year after trying a lot of budget sets my sound preference was defined by the stock tuning or Tue Libra X then by ZVX Pro. Then the Zenith seems to be a refinement to the zvx pro formula and it truly is - refined treble and mids across the board. Note however - as described to me before - you pay for levels of refinement. Even though it is there would It be worth 3x the cost of the zvx pro to 1 zenith? I'd agree with a comment by Paul Wasabi - zenith quality is in the 100usd 1DD (he'd pick zenith over kima 2). Re zs10 pro even if FR would have resemblance, being hybrid might bring issues (ie coherence, ba timbre) that will make a comparison not easy.

Yeah, zvx pro is miles better in sound build quality than ccz. Or just get chu 2 or waner 2

It would recommend KZ Libra X (silver one) or KZ ZVX if you want something in that direction. Both have fairly balanced tuning and decent bass. Kz castor harman have clean bass that is nice if that what you want. But if you want fun punchy rumbly bass, this aint it. Or get KZ Castor pro bass for good quality fun bass but still not overwhelming like the og castor bass.

Depend on your tastes The current darling would be Edx2/gale for the cheapos. Zvx pro for great budget balanced tuning Zenith, kz flagship one dd with balanced tuning Prx, zenith like tuning on planar which gives less "impact" but more details. Require more power. --- Cca trio/vader balanced, for fun v tuning with ample bass for rock music AM16, thick ish fun v with better res via multi BA setup Vader pro, attempt of giving kz fun v tuning more resolution at cost of reigning in the bass tuning. --- Sonata, kz true flagship. Detail monster for the price. --- According to some reviewers in head fi Top 3 kz (well, ish) right now would be KZ AM16, KZ ZAX/CCA trio, KZ ZVX Pro.

Havent tried EDC-Pro, but i've bought KZ ZVX Pro for $12 (which have full metal shell). it sounds great for sub $30 iem. its tuned pretty close to quite well recieved EDC-Pro https://preview.redd.it/8p84p4n9l4hf1.png?width=1156&format=png&auto=webp&s=8a11b351a60462e92414da7ee762662e961a9610 EDC-pro weakness seems to be the cheapo driver treble quality, ZVX Pro tuned similarly but with better driver.

Get, KZ EDX Pro 2, the newest variant Or get KZ ZVX Pro, slight step up

I have the OG ZVX in silver (not the revision) and the Pro in black. These are two KZ IEM’s I will keep until they stop working.

ZVX Pro and Saga Balanced. ZES is my favorite KZ for the gym.

Zvx pro is arguably better and doesn't cost much more. The original zvx was silently retuned to something worse, a practice which kz seems to have happily abandoned, and the new zvx pro is better tuned and has smoother treble than the og

I really like the KZ ZVX Pro for gaming. They have enough bass to make your ear drums vibrate a little without distorting the sounds that most IEM's will do and of course the midtones are smooth like butter because KZ has perfected the crisp sound for singers.

Dunu titan s2 or Dunu kima 2 is what I think suits your preferences. Titan s2 has good bass with textural qualities. Mids on kima 2 are more pronounced but smoother than s2. S2 has better dynamics overall and is more of a fun sound. Both have very good timbre but kima feels more natural. Hexa is more of a neutral mid range iem, it lets you observe the sound but not necessarily feel the bass defintion. I didnt really like s08, planar bass is more of a wave feeling motion and the tuning was too neutral. Nova lacks in the bass punch feel but everything is kind of smooth on it while having good vocals. Fudu is decent but the air roll off kind of is a dealbreaker for me. On a random side note you should look into kz zvx pro, it has very clean bass shelf without it feeling lacking. I know its in the budget but the tuning on it feels so technical for its price. It doesn't lack anything the staging, imaging, and layering all sound great. It blends musicality with good technicaity and I can say it rivals alot of $80 or under pairs.

Dude these beat my ea500lm and that's not an overstatement. I have the ZVX Pro its just not even close to the Zenith this is the best KZ set out there bruh, they call it their flagship. It literally has their name in their name funnily enough - that should say something.

I just bought a set of these to use on my dj controller and noticed 2 things, first of all they don't come with the braided/twisted cables in all the pics and also when I plug them in there's a noticeable amount of noise and noone seems the mention that. Is that because it's expected at that price or because noone else is having that same experience?

For some reason i'm not getting notifications so didn't realise you'd replied to me. Thanks for responding. First off i don't have any other iems and i apologise but its the KZ ZVX PRO X iems I have. this is my first set so nothing to compare to. I usually DJ with a pair of Pioneer HDJ-X5's which are conciderably more expensive so I don't know if im expecting too much from these. If I plug the iems into the headphone output on both my speakers and my dj controller I can hear static in the background, nothing crazy and any audio will drown it out but still, it's there unlike my Pioneer headphones.

Can't argue with that really. Love my zvx and both castor bass an castor bass pro.

I love the 7HZ Zero but I feel like I could only recommend them to someone who already has a bit of experience with bright IEMs. I would recommend you to start Tangzu Wan'er or its studio edition. They are more of a completely neutral or neutral warm sound. If you want something fully warm without many treble Tachjim Bunny is a good option.Finally, if you want a good IEM with a V-shaped sound, I recommend KZ Saga Bass, KZ ZVX Pro or KZ Libra Balanced.

I've recently looked into KZ ZNA, ND PLANET and KZ ZVX PROs They all seem like good options to me since I was quite content with basic ZVX as I tend to EQ usually but which one would you recommend? I tend to switch from ZS10 PRO 2 to ZVX from time to time as I like the clarity, details and soundtage of ZS10 PRO 2 and the deep saitisfying punch of the ZVX I was looking for something that would combine these two into one and hope to not muddy up the sound People have recommended AFUL explorers but they're quite a bit over my budget hence I'm curious which of these would be better, I was even debating on Aoshida E20s as well If you could recommend something else I'm all ears (no pun intended).

Yes, I have looked over the Castor Pro Bass for quite a while now and I'm completely fine with the pricing, I might just get two instead of one since I simply cannot decide which one to get lol The ZVX PRO seems nice due to it's price to performance single DD and I've heard a lot of good things about the Castor Pro Bass Both are the same price which is why I'm thinking of getting both at this point. I'm fine with EQing stuff either way so the easier they can handle it the better, driving them is also not an issue since I'm using an LG V20.

EDIT, Please ignore some of this, after much recent listening, I am fairly certain that there is likely to be a hearing imbalance between my left and right ears, and they do not hear frequencies in exactly the same manner. One leans towards more sensitivity in high frequencies, and the other towards bass frequencies, so this is not just a volume imbalance, but more. So I have to revise my opinions. Definitely the ZVX and the two copies of SAGA Balanced, which I own, in spite of my own hearing situation, their imbalance was beyond what I can attribute to my own hearing. I'll revisit the PRX, cos it could be my own ears !! Initial Post below : I own PRX, Polaris, 2 of the SAGA Balanced, ZVX, EDC Pro, Castor Pro Harman, Libra X, CCA CRA, EDX Pro X. The bad. ZVX paint started peeling within 48 hours of use, and within 4 months, one earpiece of the pair, had a drastically reduced volume. Both SAGA balanced pairs are no longer usable cos of imbalances between left and right in the pair - maybe I'll see if I can salvage a working pair from the earpieces in both pairs ! By and large one main issue with KZ/CCA is the possibility of level imbalances between left and right earpieces, it seems to be a bit more pronounced, compared to IEM's from other manufacturers. My other IEMs are the 7Hz Zero 2 and the ARTTI T10. The EDX Pro X, I bought 3, sorry this product is abominable, and has no redeeming qualities. Not sure who this is for. Poor quality at a low price, not worth the false economy of a cheap product. The acceptable. CCA CRA was my 1st IEM, and I loved the improvement over my AKG K702's. ZVZ was OK, improved high frequencies and clarity, but the channel imbalance and eventual unreliability, as well as the inadequate bass, makes this a buyer beware product ! Libra X was too bright. Way too bright, all the EQ in the world could not address this flaw. Only for treble heads EDC Pro is excellent - best of the sub $10 KZ's. Polaris is OK, but I would not call it one with clarity, a bit harsh. SAGA Balanced - great balanced sound, but unfortunately the product has manufacturing flaws, which I experienced on 2 examples. I loved it so much I ordered a 2nd one, but sadly there is an issue with the product reliability, and consistency. And that includes different frequency response between left and right, on my 1st pair. The excellent With a few caveats, the PRX is a superb product, but the stock ear tips, in my opinion, do not pair well with the IEMs. So with 3rd party ear tips, and some EQ to reduce the excessive high frequencies, it's a decent product, with lots of clarity, and a very respectable audio reproduction. At this time I am interested in one or more of these, to complement the PRX, which I am relatively happy with (once EQ's and using better ear tips) : KZ AM16 KZ ZA12 KZ Decet Not easy deciding between them. In the same way that PRX introduced me to a commendable budget planar, which would need me to spend a lot more, to get any better, these other three seem to be the best bang for the buck, as an introduction to All Balanced Armature, Hybrid, and Multiple Dynamic Driver configurations. My preference is for neutral, maybe with a little bass emphasis. Analytical is high on my priority list, Clarity is ultra important, and above all if I spend money on a product, it MUST be reliable.

My experience with ZVX PRO, not even a month and left channel is significant lower sounding than the other. Truthear Hola same problem but they lasted almost 2 years. I don't buy more expensive iems because of this, as good as some sound for the price they are still cheaply made and the warranty is inexistent.

im enjoying my KZ ZVX

Zvx must be considered. It does not have punching high freqs beside other kz's but need an upgrade cable to see the limit of it

First time I feel like living with deaf ear when I tried chinese IEM for fun. It turns me into audiophile for a while. KZ EDX then ZS10 Pro, now Zex Pro. First two less than rm100 on shopee. Got other brands with match quality sound and price but only tried KZ. Tried alot of ear/headphone at same price range. Meh. Even airpod/buds hardly match with details I used heard to.
