they're trying to censor the UE logo

2018-11-16 12:46:16 UTC  

Dear logo not mean we comply with standard

2018-11-16 12:46:43 UTC  

It is just aesthetic choice

2018-11-16 12:52:38 UTC  

Hit or miss

4. is audiobudget's attempt without reading the manual lel

hey guys I have a dumbass question, I've been browsing the kz store on aliexpress and I noticed a new pair of iems (KZ BA10) which on paper seem to have about the same on-paper specs(slight lower frequency response range and slightly high impedance) as my kz zs6's iems but are like 40$ more expensive. Is there something I'm missing here, why are they more expensive?

2018-11-17 00:46:07 UTC  

Ur missing brain if you're still buying kz

2018-11-17 00:49:45 UTC  

I fucking love my kz zs6's fam

2018-11-17 00:50:40 UTC  

they literally sound just as good as my old audio technica headphones which were like ten times more expensive

2018-11-17 00:58:53 UTC  

im sorry for your loss

2018-11-17 00:59:15 UTC  

kz just shoves more drivers in and hopes people will buy them because of driver count and fancy colors and shapes

2018-11-17 00:59:25 UTC  

they have very few decent iems, and many flawed ones

2018-11-17 01:01:12 UTC  

Ordered the ZSNs from them, look decent and received well enough

2018-11-17 01:02:46 UTC  

that doesn't answer the question of why there are iem's/headphones with seemingly shittier or equal specs on paper that are way more expensive.

2018-11-17 01:36:10 UTC  

branding, improvements in technology, better drivers get easier to make, etc

2018-11-17 01:36:23 UTC  

there is plenty of chi-fi that gets beat by sleeper iems

2018-11-17 01:36:35 UTC  

like the quadbeats

2018-11-17 01:36:48 UTC  

also just marketing

2018-11-17 01:41:11 UTC  

so marketing is the only reason why iem's/headphones with seemingly shittier or equal specs on paper are more expensive?

2018-11-17 01:41:44 UTC  

there's absolutely no other hidden factors that can determine audio quality other than the shit on the spec sheet?

2018-11-17 01:43:01 UTC  

Besides the stuff they didn't put in ir

2018-11-17 01:49:44 UTC  

@bigabur specs mean fuckin nothing dude

2018-11-17 01:50:30 UTC  

Ask they list is impedance, sensitivity, and frequency range. None of which tell you anything about the sound

2018-11-17 03:30:05 UTC  

Cringe and bluepilled.

2018-11-17 06:25:05 UTC  

@bigabur there's a lot of stuff that determines audio quality that isn't just on paper

2018-11-17 06:25:26 UTC  

It's the same thing with a lot of other industries, eg cameras.

2018-11-17 06:26:09 UTC  

While cameras can use the same sensors, they can perform vastly differently due to the tuning, algorithms, etc.

2018-11-17 06:27:06 UTC  

The same thing applies to audio. KZ can pack more drivers but if they're low quality and aren't tuned correctly they won't perform that well compared to an IEM with less drivers, but they're better tuned and better quality.

2018-11-17 06:27:59 UTC  

An IEM like the Tin T2 will absolutely stomp the ZS5/ZS6 and be a good bit better than the BA10 or ZS10

2018-11-17 06:28:13 UTC  

Despite having less drivers and a smaller package

2018-11-17 06:32:55 UTC  

You can get a measurement of the IEMs frequency response but even that won't actually tell you everything you need to know - but it's a lot more helpful than something like impedance, sensitivity and frequency range.

2018-11-17 06:47:34 UTC  

is this pasta?

2018-11-17 06:51:21 UTC  

my friend just buy kz zs10
