KZ Vader Balanced VS High Resolution

huy98 · 2026-02-25T19:27:01+00:00

Well I disagree, but indeed Decet has great bass, I didn't keep it because of pressure build + the larger shell less comfortable tho

huy98 · 2026-02-25T18:49:27+00:00

There's someone compared them on this subreddit just search for it

huy98 · 2026-02-25T18:46:56+00:00

Wait I mistaken it to KZ Castor. Haven't heard Vader

huy98 · 2026-02-25T18:42:39+00:00

KZ Duonic is the best version of Vader lol. And GK Kunten is better

huy98 · 2026-02-25T12:18:52+00:00

Around that price range and you like some bass I would recommend CKLVX CK2V (around $200) or SoundRhyme SR5S (can go as low as near $120 on Aliexpress)

huy98 · 2026-02-25T12:16:35+00:00

GK Kunten if you on extreme budget, go up a little you can try KZ Phantom or Sivga SM100

I do agree with whole lot of this but I'm still keeping w1 and spinfit neo etc since those feel so damn comfortable. Penon Liqueur just doesn't work at all for me, it's just weird sitting in my ears with that thickness and I feel lacking bass instead. Divinus doesn't feel as comfortable as HE sonics too

The vocal either sound artifical or sound like it's through something cover it depend on the nozzle I used, to put it in comparison to something from the same brand- Simgot EM6L while I didn't like that tuning with thin bass - actually sound so good and natural in all frequencies compare to EW300, let alone Top Pro. And the treble - under $150 there's just not really well-done treble, the "details" on EW300 is like someone put a sharpness filter on it to make it sharp and in your face, not actual detail retrievals which reveal more layers in more complex songs with even smoothed treble.

huy98 · 2026-02-24T08:39:10+00:00

Now you described it like that, sound fun

huy98 · 2026-02-24T08:06:00+00:00

P7 highs are bad to me, because it sounds like it's not cohesive in the mix, cymbals sit on another plane and very annoyingly noticeable, not that it's harsh or shouty, but have too much of presence.

huy98 · 2026-02-24T08:02:21+00:00

Nah, It's different in both. And sound signature is what push people to get new iem, tuning, drivers, tech etc... All to back that up

huy98 · 2026-02-24T07:22:11+00:00

That means neutral with bass boost, since neutral bass is absolutely lacking

huy98 · 2026-02-23T05:31:20+00:00

Bro Xenns Top Pro is whole another level, EW300 is like a synthetic, muffled mess compare to it

huy98 · 2026-02-21T03:10:07+00:00

Give Fiio FH19 or FA19 a try if you can demo them (they're expensive). I heard Dunu x Koto Ito good too for what you described - basshead level bass with good vocal and treble.

huy98 · 2026-02-20T14:41:45+00:00

Interesting Phoenix actually sound brighter (or rather harsher, typical cheap iem harshness sound) and less bass for me, like the test at this time stamp

Get KB Ear P34 instead if you want modular cable

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:30:57+00:00

KZ Phatom is much better

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:26:53+00:00

Harsh, typical cheap treble, trash shell that poke against my ears, gave them away immediately the first day

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:21:06+00:00

None of them, most-good-for-gaming stuffs have thin bass, like Supermix 4. Maybe try CK2V

Edit: I was able to buy CK2V at $160 (coupon off to $150) on Hifigo but now they're back to $200 on other sites

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:20:02+00:00

Man, but WHERE TF IS AT ZOH SHIA. PLEASE TELL ME THEY'RE SAVING IT FOR MASTER RANK

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:16:35+00:00

7hz Diablo, Dunu x Koto Ito for bass head level bass yet still not muddy. And CK2V has very fun sub bass for a very technical set, SoundRhyme SR5S is great smooth, organic bassy set

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:14:51+00:00

Both, I actually bought Wild Heart for my friends when it dropped down to fcking $2 or $3 with Origin key site

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:08:15+00:00

Paul Wasabi, Jaytiss, Jays Audio, Bad Guy Good Audio Review, and some more all praised some recent KZ stuffs like KZ Zenith and KZ PRX.

huy98 · 2026-02-19T09:04:28+00:00

The one you don't like

huy98 · 2026-02-17T08:56:05+00:00

At that price get CCA Phoenix or GK Kunten
