Linsoul KZ Zax 1DD+7BA Hybrid Driver HiFi in-Ear Earphones with Zin Alloy Shell, Detachable Recessed 2 Pin 0.75mm OFC Cable (Without Mic, Black)

I bought these a year ago to try IEMs for the first time. They did take a little bit of getting used to (especially if you're not used to in-ear earphones), I primarily use them for gaming and streaming, after about a week or two I can say I'll never go back to a traditional headset for gaming. The sounds quality is better than "gaming" headsets, the value is for these ones specifically is very good. Mine are still going strong even with 8+ hours of use a day (both gaming and general music listening). The only issue I had is the black paint has come of completely from just normal wear and tear but that has zero impact of the sound. I honestly can't recommend these more especially as a first pair, I can't compare them to more expensive brands because I haven't used them.

This really should be as simple as, BUY these if you’re even thinking about a new pair of IEMs…I’m not an audiophile, but I definitely am a lover of sound quality. I’m also a lover of a good bargain! And these are quite frankly, “for the money” a total no brainer.I’m a middle aged guy, and over the years have owned a great many headphones, earphones, IEMs etc, so of course these ZAXs are gonna be compared to a lot of other ear goggles I have owned, some costing £500 and up.What can I say that’s not already been said about these? They’re amazingly good IEMs, like really astoundingly good.8 drivers in a design which is so comfortable and light they almost “disappear”, leaving you to luxuriate in a wonderfully rich, detailed and engaging listening experience is a marvel.I’ve been listening to a fair range of music through these, from electro and techno, to hip hop and jazz, to acoustic and classical. The zaxs make everything I’ve played through them sound just great.Some reviewers have said the highs are fatiguing and shrill, and bass is a bit lacking. Well let them stroke their beards and nitpick. Fact is, for under £60, these are the finest IEMs you could ever hope to find.One can’t expect much for that money nowadays. I’ve spent more during a trip to McDonalds!But seriously, how this is even possible, I have no idea. Its how far audio technology has come recently. The closest pair of ears I could compare them to cost well over £300, and these trounce them!I won’t mention the cable, because I won’t be using it, having bought KZs Bluetooth ear hooks, which compliment the units perfectly. So I won’t get my silver coated copper in a twist over that aspect.I’m using an iPhone XS and it’s surprising how loud these are even compared to other KZ models. I’m finding just above 50% is plenty, even outdoors.One tiny gripe is the tips. They’re thin and really cheap silicone and don’t really get a great seal. Easily fixed by buying some decent memory foam tips, but literally that is the ONLY bad thing I can say about these.So yeah, not to put too finer point on it, I am pretty much gobsmacked by these IEMs. Not even joking when I say if I’d have paid £200 plus for these I’d be thrilled with my purchase, but less than £60? And they even look super cool in matte black.I’m my recent quest for the best sound quality on a budget, I’ve found my grail, (for now) and if you’re a lover of music and read a lot of reviews, make this the last one you read before you pull the trigger…Happy listening.

I've had these a couple of days now and am impressed. They have excellent response, really precise highs, good clear mids and well controlled but substantial bass. The clarity is amazing - on some tracks you hear instruments (and particularly percussion) that just wasn't there before. They also have a great sound stage with more separation than I've heard previously.If there is a tiny flaw - and it is a small thing - on some tracks I think you can hear which frequencies are coming from which driver - not in a noticeable way, but somehow its there. It gives a hint of 'artificiality' but really is minor.Anyway a very good buy. Whenever I want to hear the detail of a track I put these on!

The first IEM that just refuses to break. the tone is a bit bass heavy (but you can eq out) clarity is pretty awesome for the price. THE THING WENT THROUGH MY WASHING MACHINE ACCIDENTLY AND STILL WORKS A FULL YEAR LATER, 10/10

Brilliant.

Was blown away by the ZS10's and they even took over my Shure SE535's as my weapon of choice, so was intrigued by the 8 drivers a side of the ZAX. Again, just ridiculous for the money and the equal of other in ears costing many times the price. Upgrade the cable and grab some memory foam tips and you have a great set of in ears.

I've tried a couple by the same brand and each time I've noticed better quality sound. These have been the best I've tried so far.I grabbed some memory foam tips with my first IEMs and have been my go to so can't really comment on the tips.

Bought these a few weeks back as I do a lot of DJ sets so wanted to try mixing with IEM's to see what they were like. And I have to say, being able to hear all the highs and mids in the tracks has vastly improved the hearing experience, resulting in clearer transitions between tracks. Fantastic product.
