They are ATH M50X of IEM

KZ has given a big slap to the IEM industry with their Cheap and audiophile grade IEM AS10.
What is audiophile grade?? those IEM who give balanced response in the complete audible frequency range, large sound stage & clear instrument separation .
KZ AS10 full fills all the above criteria with aplomb. They are a slap in the face of American and European brands on how to achieve and satisfy 95% of human audible capacity in such a low price.
Various audiophile whores on you tube and websites are not giving the KZ AS10 its due recognition cause chi-fi Balance armatures have the capabilities to shut down their shops and also the shop of other IEMs.
Buy mobile phone LG V30 or G7 for best results, they are better investment than any other DAC as they are complete feature full mobile phone with very strong audio production capabilities.
good for low impedance headphones upto 50 ohms .
For bluetooth capabilities you can buy KZ bluetooth cable from Ali Express.
If you want to shell out out more money cause you want to stand out and have nothing better to do, you can go on and buy costly IEM which claims to reach 100% of an IDEAL IEM.
But these KA AS10 have achieved 95% of the Ideal IEM and for balance 5% you are just wasting your time and money cause even if you get balance 5%, most of you will not be able to recognise the difference.
The only place they are lacking in are the extreme lows, which i feel its foolish to expect from IEM to satisfy the urge of extreme lows. As extreme lows are mostly felt and not heard. and to feel the extreme lows the speaker need space to move the air, which IEM doesn't provide. So for those extreme lows better to switch to head phones or full range speakers.

I rest my review saying these are the must IEM for all the collectors as a comparison point , just like ATH M50x are the comparison point for headphones and all collectors have one set of those.
, and rest those who want best bang for your buck and one time investment, look no fur...

Stunning, third eye-opening sound on a budget

As a performing musician and a long-time audiophile, I was looking for a decent pair of IEMs and chanced upon these. Checked out a lot of reviews on YouTube and quickly realised that these are touted to be game changers. There's overwhelmingly positive feedback about these buds and I was a bit skeptical about the reviews TBH. But I decided to give them a shot and ordered them yesterday. HPZ's lightning fast delivery made sure I got them today and I'm writing this review as I speak. I mostly make and listen to progressive rock music, a genre usually characterised by multiple instrumental layers and whose makers pay a great deal of attention to the quality of the tones, sounds and composition. These earphones are unlike any I've ever used in that the clarity is astounding and I'm able to clearly distinguish every single instrument with astonishing detail. The bass is deep and accurate without being overpowering. I don't listen to EDM and other bass-heavy music, but I imagine they'll be able to do a good job playing them as well. The soundstage is really good and the highs and mids are meaty and pleasant without sounding harsh at all. They also fit very snugly in my ears and the isolation is really good too, even without me using comply foam ear-tips. Although, I must mention that I have relatively large ears and these might be a bit large for those with smaller ears. I can't wait to try them in a jam-room with my bands and also at live gigs. I'm looking forward to burning them in (if such a thing does exist) and listening to how they sound over time. They're also plenty loud and I can't see myself ever needing to push them beyond 40-50% of their maximum volume. But for now, 10/10 would recommend.

Punchy excelent Sound

I got this from another merchant. The sound is soo good compared to its price. It has 5 balance Armature which really makes every sound crips and clear. The bass department isn't lacking either.

Best budget IEM

Have purchased after immense research on budget IEMs and this product surely lived upto the hype. With its 5 driver on each side there is a Great instrument frequency separation, crisp and clear audio and pretty great bass response which is great for normal listening. Only drawback is the size n weight. It is quite bulky for the small ear size people for myself but it’s not heavy to the extent that you feel uncomfortable. You may find it too shrilly out of the box but give some time to burn it and it just starts getting smoother and better. If you are looking for IEMs with in 10k range then this is far better than its counterparts.

Best budget iem ever built to last!!!

The iem fits perfectly in the ear the isolation is pretty clean when having a perfect fit and foam based eartips it gives the best. As far as the audio is considered it has a clean mids and crispy low it lack in in the bass department in certain parts but overall it’s a good choice to buy without thinking twice

Warm Sound , Best value for Money IEM

After been listening to stock earphones so far , took the plunge and got AS10 as a beginner IEM purchase. Headphone Zone helped to narrow down this specific IEM for my listening preferences. This suits based for a Warm sounding signature - 5 Balanced Armature does a great job , brilliant listening experience. I have been listening to mostly classic rock , with Apple music Lossless quality . Over Ear Fit is comfortable and stock ear tips provide a good ear seal . Cable quality is sturdy and should last long .

HI Tarun,
Delighted that you are loving your IEM & thanks for the lovely review! Cheers & Keep the music playing!

Not worth the money

This is very costly earphone from KZ. They have given very premium sounding earphones for very economical price. This one is one of the costliest (probably costliest one) from their line of earphones. I KZ ZSN pro, ZST, ZS10 pro and now this one. I had very high hopes as this being 5 driver/per ear phone. But this turned out to be DUD! ZST and ZS10 pro are much better sounding than this. Not worth the money at all!
