The people on head-fi are brain dead

2017-06-18 05:28:35 UTC  

oh you remove the memory wire so that is easier to put on?

2017-06-18 05:28:39 UTC  

i found the memory wire not my favourite thing

2017-06-18 05:28:52 UTC  

Yeah, I removed it in my silver cable

2017-06-18 05:29:06 UTC  

ok i might do that mod next time if i can be fucked

2017-06-18 05:29:07 UTC  

ZST doesn't have it, for some reason the ZS5 comes with it

2017-06-18 05:29:17 UTC  

wat? my zst has a memory wire

2017-06-18 05:29:24 UTC  

Really?

2017-06-18 05:29:27 UTC  

ye

2017-06-18 05:29:32 UTC  

i bought mine on ebay

2017-06-18 05:29:37 UTC  

None of my ZST cables came with a memory wire, weird

2017-06-18 05:29:39 UTC  

maybe they change their wires depending on whats available to them

2017-06-18 05:29:41 UTC  

wow weird

2017-06-18 05:29:54 UTC  

your wire is black?

2017-06-18 05:29:55 UTC  

The memory ones shouldn't even fit the ZST

2017-06-18 05:30:04 UTC  

They're keyed

2017-06-18 05:30:15 UTC  

wait a sec mines not black

2017-06-18 05:30:17 UTC  

its like copper coloured

2017-06-18 05:30:21 UTC  

idk what you call it

2017-06-18 05:30:23 UTC  

Copper/grey?

2017-06-18 05:30:48 UTC  

ill see if i can find where i bought it

2017-06-18 05:30:57 UTC  

where did you buy yours

2017-06-18 05:31:07 UTC  

probably aliexpress

2017-06-18 05:31:35 UTC  

its that listing with the wire thats attached

2017-06-18 05:31:39 UTC  

i dont have the mic version though

2017-06-18 05:31:47 UTC  

wait do you have the mic version?

2017-06-18 05:32:13 UTC  

So if you bend the wire right underneath the IEM, does it feel like bending a thick paperclip?

2017-06-18 05:32:20 UTC  

yes, my wire isnt that wire as pictured

2017-06-18 05:32:29 UTC  

the copper colour part is but mine doesnt have a mic and it has a memory wire for sure

2017-06-18 05:32:36 UTC  

and that is the listing i bought

2017-06-18 05:32:39 UTC  

Wow weird.

2017-06-18 05:32:40 UTC  

also you have no mic or have mic

2017-06-18 05:32:58 UTC  

I have the silver cable, but the stock ones I have, have mics

2017-06-18 05:33:22 UTC  

nvm

2017-06-18 05:33:26 UTC  

i found on reddit this comment: just joined the KZ ZST club and my first week with them was awful! Looks like the bundled brown cable now includes memory wire and after spending more on tips than I did on the IEM's themselves, i found that the memory wire was the biggest contributor to them coming out!

2017-06-18 05:33:32 UTC  

they must have changed their cables sometime ago

2017-06-18 05:34:07 UTC  

anyways i dislike the memory wire.. i have 3 dollar earphones with non-memory wire and they're much easier

2017-06-18 05:34:28 UTC  

But yeah, you just make a nick in the heat shrink on both sides, cut the memory wire with something near the end and pull it out with pliers

2017-06-18 05:34:49 UTC  

It won't come out of the connector end, so get it as close as possible or you'll be stabbing your ears

2017-06-18 05:35:17 UTC  

Also, the mic buttons on the ZS5 are totally useless with my pixel
