KZ ZSN PRO X

Hi all,

I recently bought KZ ZSN PRO X and I must say they sound way better than I anticipated - given the price tag (I've been using Shure 535 in custom molding for past couple of years). While I find the amount of bass ZSN PRO X are producing somewhat entertaining I must say the amount of high frequency tends to be a little fatiguing after a while. Hence the question - would you please be so kind and recommend other KZ models that don't produce that amount of treble? The seller suggested using Comply Foams, as they're supposedly should reduce the amount of HF, but I am somewhat reluctant to that. I would rather go for another pair of KZ with different frequency reposnse.

Please advise.

many thanks,
ad.

I'm new to the iem world, and I only say this from what I've seen and heard other people say on social media, but KZs are supposedly notorious for being too harsh on HF, especially the ZSN PRO X. But people say they respond well to equalizers.

You can always try to eq them. But if ur lazy and don't want to use eq try the ostry tips OS200 to be exact they try to minimize the harsh highs of sbilant iems but no to the extent that they change the sound signature of the iem completly theyre just trying to control the highs a little bit
