- Another video on KZ 7-8 USD range. They are cheap, priced almost exactly the same, so which one wins?
I got them from these stores (best prices at the time)

I once had KZ ZSN PRO and for me the bass was not too good and not too bad. There were also times that it kind of hurts when I try to make the volume higher (cant explain it in technical way) as it produced sharp sound.
just bought the castors for gaming and listening to music, first pair of IEM's I've always used headphones but I think these will be better for me thanks for the comparison.
follow up reviews? is it good for gaming tho?
@@mchlrvr for the price I think there definitely worth it I got the non mic version so I cant tell you how the mic sounds but they feel lightweight and comfy they sound amazing, very easy to hear footsteps in games. listening to music is still good as they still have decent bass and honestly I think there definitely worth just trying. the only criticism I have is the noise suppression isn't the best so definitely invest in some foam ear tips apart from that there brilliant.
@@OfficialSaqn aight im convinced i’ll try it! don’t rly need the mic tho, im alrd using a seperate mic. thank you for this! 🫶🏻
@@OfficialSaqnbruh for pc gaming how is the earphones is it worth it?
@@animesong4838 I just typed a massive review on them to you lol but accidentally clicked off the page so Lemme summarise, yes there good, sound cancelling isn't, buy new foam ear tips and maybe cable, have fun. also the sound is quite harsh but of course you can adjust the switches to your ears liking and by harsh I mean sharp like when listening to explosions or songs if there's something loud its LOUD again try it out and adjust switches to your ears preferred liking and if you don't like them just send them back.
Ok, for that low of a price I bought the castors just to see how they compare to the nothing ear 2024 and the liberty 3 pro. I will hopefully be able to report on it once they arrive.
Please do! Im buying them to see how far have we got with cheap headphnones lately, Im used to hiend stuff and Im surpirised how good these (and other KZs) are. 5y ago something for 5 bucks would sound butt ugly :)
@k4syx I've just received them, and I can tell you right now. For the price I don't think I would be able to find anything even close to the castor, it's simply superb.
Compared to the liberty 3 pro the castor produce crisper highs and more controlled, tighter base (these are the plus base version).
Compared to the nothing ear, it is much the same story, but the nothing ear can be EQ-ed to sound better than the castor, but cannot beat the separation and wide stage the castor produce.
If you do not mind the wiresand want a pair of buds for music only, the choice is obvious imo.
I just bought 3 more to keep for presents/gifts.
Status update,
I find myself using the nothing ear headphones most often, KZ castor do output more detailed, richer sound, the simplicity and convenience of using the wireless earbuds is just too good.
As a result, I use the KZs maybe 4-5 times per week when I'm at home relaxing, the rest of the time wireless earbuds.
using "KZ-ZSN PRO 2" and immediately noticed ear piercing treble (snare drum sounds harsh and tinnish) but very good Bass.
Give them a lengthy burn in, in most of KZ headphones that I got treble tames after something like 60-80h (quite long).
I haven't heard Pro 2, I wonder how it compares to regular Pro.
This is bad😢😅😅😅😅 I have ordered My yesterday 😭,
@@k4syx😢
Go for KZ Castor Black , Harman curve edition. They are best. I dont think anyone in thier peaceful mind would like a high trebble what the KZ-ZSN Pro provides.
@@tantujsingh kz zsn 10pro 2 very much treble. No bass
In your opinion, which one is Better? For usual use, like to hear music, play some games usually...
Castors!
Same price, better SQ :)
Nice vid, have you tried the black Castor with "improved bass"? I'm planning to buy it but I don't know which Castor is better
@@hulahulahup Thanks! I always go for regular (so called "Hifi") versions as I've learned that bass versions have usually way to much bass
Castor Pro is out. I have castor and love it
Gotta get the new one then!
can you explain what open vs closed means? i don't really understand
@@arkin2263 open headphones will have their backs "open" leaking sound both ways. These have usually better soundstage, but they do not isolate very well. Closed will be... closed, no holes or vents to leak the sound. They will isolate better, soundstage will be closer, but the bass can usually be better. Or at least it's easier to achieve good bass in closed headphones.
Are the castor larger than the zsn pro? I mean did you find them to have a good fit like the zsn in the ears?
@@jeffmerheb3182 yes both of them have good fit. I have quite large ears so I really appreciate that KZ always gives nozzle long enough to reach inside AND be comfortable at the same time.
I can spot a portuguese by miles.
Comprei os Castor, os CCA CRA e os Zero 2 , só pq sim, é a minha primeira experiência com iems.
Can't wait to try them
Nice job by the way
@@anagoncalves5739 Hi! That's cool, but I'm not Portuguese:D
This is something new btw, most of the folk seem to think I'm russian (but I'm not) and when I'm speaking live, not off the camera, guesses range from Germany to Hungary too ;D
(Seriously, can you please translate your comment?)
Ah so sorry, one more reason why i need some iems 😂😂.
I said that i bought 3 sets of iems, castor, cca cra, and zero2 just to try something new, they will be my first experience and i can't wait for it.
@@anagoncalves5739Hi. How was your experience? which one is better between these three?
731
KZ ZSN Pro X or kz caster which is better 😢
Sorry I haven't heard zsn pro X, can't help you :(
Bro did u know what is best kz zsn pro x or kz castor
@@animesong4838 Castor as far as I remember. Check my video on four KZs - I'm lining them up from worst to best
I have used the zsn pro and liked it, should i buy kz castor
Castor is better, but Libra is even better, Check my other video
I did order Castors, and I would say if you play fps games the KZ Castors are too heavy on bass and it may muffle other sounds such as footsteps which is kinda annoying. I just returned them hopefully to pick a better one
What was your source? Were you using them with any kind of amplifier?
@@k4syx No I wasn’t
What Castor did you get, they also have a black one with louder bass?
@@hulahulahup Me? Regular one ("hifi")
@@k4syx oh, I was asking the commenter since he mentioned it was bassy. I'm wondering if he might have gotten the black one.
i use kz castor the improve bass edition its nice but i think it lacks of details in music and i think it echo a bit or its just normal cause its my 1st iem
@@Enuma_ for 7 bucks it has amazing detail :)
Hey please tell me which one is better kz castor or kz zsn pro 2
@@bhavyavasvani9202 I haven't heard zsn pro 2 so I can't reliably answer this... Sorry!
@@k4syxIs it better than kz zs10 pro x?
@@ayush_priyadarshi_ that's another one I haven't heard, sorry :(
Which one has better mic quality?
@@neeraj4878 exactly the same as cables are the same
Hi Headphone Zone,
I am new to IEMs and would like some suggestions on which IEM to buy as my first. I listen to various genres like pop, rap, EDM, and bass-heavy music. Sometimes, I also play games and attend calls. My budget is around ₹2000. I've done some research after watching your videos and other RUclipsrs, and I've considered options like the FZ ZNS Pro 2 and KZ Castor. Could you please provide more suggestions?
@@shawnfrost9546 Hi!
What's your budget in USD? I don't recognize the currency sign you're using?
@@k4syx 23 dollar
@@shawnfrost9546 Go for Kz Libra, or save just a little more to 35-37$ and go for KZ PR3 (way better, planar, may stay your favorite for a long time!)
@@k4syx thank you so much
@@shawnfrost9546 Cheers!
The castor doesn’t sound good without any amplifier.
Which iem bass is more deep??
@@RahulDas-uc5zs Castor
castor ve zsn pro c arasından hangisini seçerdiniz?
Castor is better though I'm not sure if that's what you're asking (no translation available)
@@k4syx thanks for answer
Sence zsn pro 2 alınır mı?
could you also post best bluetooth bud please?
@@loopbloke actually I did, look at my other videos :)
@@k4syx Ty
they cost 20 USD here in India. How do they compare with Sony MDR XB55 ?
Get them directly from Ali for 7, thats a big difference! I cant compare them to XB55 as I havent heard them, so I wont try to guess :(
castor vs zsn pro 2 and zs pro 10 x?
Haven't heard them so can't help you with any honest opinion..
Kz castor or Kz edx pro
