Not as much ROI as the CCA C10, from its sister brand, but if you like the sound of lots of drivers, this is phenomenal. Only way to improve what it does is continue making newer models. I've see a 42 BA IEM, KZ or CCA should be able to get to that number. Less of a thumpy bass sound than the C10 because as it adds BAs, it adds detail, and less sound is lost, so some of the bass sounds like it is converted to more mid range, and the deeper bass sounds softened, but can be experienced at higher volumes. It gets my recommendation.
Overall i am happy for what i paid for. Sound from stock eartips are way too flat for my taste. Switched to final audio e-types and sound drastically improved
Right off the bat, I had high hopes from this IEM coming from ZS 10 PRO. But it was mixed bag of feelings.
Let me elaborate. For a really flagship IEM with 10 BA drivers in each ear, it comes with really basic accessories. The cable is okay at best. The eartips are as cheap as it gets and i got two and half pairs of them!! Anyway, moving on.
The IEMs themselves are well made and even with the simple eartips they give a very good fit in my ear in spite of being bulky.
Now, the sound!! This is really mixed bag. The bass is well extended and tight and punchy. Overall quite good and as expected. Midrange is a bit shouty. Comes too aggressive on the ears almost like those multiple drivers are firing straight on the diaphram!! But after few hours of listening it got better, or may be my ears got used to it. High frequencies are well controlled but overall not as impressive as mid range and bass, but not sibilant at all. Also, I can clearly hear hiss when there should be complete silence. I am not sure its due to the cable or the IEMs are a bit noisy.
Overall tuning of this IEM leaves a lot to be desired. I think the hardware is there, but needs better tuning and execution. My recommendation would be to wait for its pro version like ZS10.
KZ, come on I really thought you would nail it with this!!
I have posted my unboxing video here: https://youtu.be/AGVwm2qlTAc
I'm really surprised. I'm very lucky to be able to use this quality product at this price.
It is a product that is worth listening to, although it expresses the sound rather dimly.
I'm really looking forward to the product of this company that will be released in the future.
First, right out of the box, impressions as compared to a broken in pair of KZ AS10.
The sound, bass, mids and trebles sound good and are better defined and balanced than the AS10.
The fit of the ASX is a little better than the AS10 even though the earbuds are slightly thicker.
Like the AS10 the ASX are easy to drive
Despite the ear tips and the cable being disappointing I would recommend the KZ ASX.
