My ear canals are quite small and I don't have issues with kz iems when using small earips, like tri Clarion S, tangzu sancai balanced S, I just don't force nozzle in if it feel uncomfortable
they replaced it with the Fudu Verse 2, which is meh tuning (depends on person), and wood faceplate (for those who likes woodgrain)
Fudu Verse 1 still better imo, though they still sell here on Shopee Philippines, most likely warehouse inventory
celest: plutus beast, letshuoer: tape pro, Kiwiears: singolo. The last two are probably the worst things I own, I would add the dufu verse 2 to that list but it looks better so its get to stay in the box. The celest is on my desk cause im currently using it. I guess I also have a waner 2 but I like the studio edition more.
My kunten is still stuck on custom/postal service but just looking at the graphs and reading reviews i already kinda regret the Artti T10 tbh i rly hope Kunten will sound worse but let's see i'll update soon..
KZ i tested so far: D-fi (no switch), ZVX, Castor Silver, Carstor Bass, Libra X, Gale, ZSN Pro 2, EDC Pro, EDX Pro and PRX, KZ-like iems QKZ HBB and Sgor Adonis and non KZ ones Moondrop Chu 2, Truthear Zero Red, Tangzu Fudu, TRN V10 Pro and Artti T10.
The KZ that i liked the most "stock" was Libra X it was very clean neutral and "correct" sounding but the bass was lacking while a EQed PRX with -2dB 8Khz and -10dB high-shelf on 10 Khz+ was insane good sounding and no worse than my EQed Artti T10 but the right driver died on me with only 5 months, i can confirm QC and build quality of KZ is kinda crap (brittle QDC connectors, exposed tunning filters) but as long as i'm paying less than a cheap meal for them it's fine cuz even if Kunten last me 6 months i can buy 9x Kunten (i.e: 54 months) with the price of an Artti T10 and idk if the Artti will even last 1 year!
My biggest problem is durability and longevity sound wise every one of them i could Eq to my liking.
Artti t10 and KZ PRZ - They both got exact same problem one side started disconnecting after 4\~5 month of usage and Artii representative ignored my warranty claim, PRX too much 10Khz+ heavy EQ was a must.
Moondrop Chu 2 - It oxided to hell and turned all green after 6 months, shouty and too closed in for my ears;
I don't like kz type iems with exposed tuning filter cuz they tend to clog and develop channel balance issues and i don't some with brittle qdc connectors, hated the sound of Castor silver it was shouty af.
Even tho the sound was not 100% my liking I loved the durability of my Zero Red and great customer service from Truthear also my Tangzu Fudu it was heavely abused and still perfect after 1 yr i'll most likely look for these brands if i ever buy a more pricier iem.

Budget gaming pick, but poor cables and polarizing bass.
