KZ ZVX and KZ D-Fi (switch and non-switch) Short Review and Comparisons
Ойындар
This is my comparison of the three budget offeringa from KZ!
The ZVX and D-Fi (swtich and non-switch)
I forgot to mention in my video that both the switch and non-switch versions of D-fi have different sizes.
The tunable version os bulkier due to the fact that it has switches on board.
The non-tunable on the other hand is lighter and smaller in comparison.
The ZVX is the most comfortable for me out of the three.
As for the sound, as mentioned in my video. I much prefer the clarity and resolution of the non-tunabale version. They sound the most complete for me.
The ZVX is the smoothest of the three and is very easy to like. It has a warm tinge in the bass and the mids are very organic sounding, with inoffensive treble.
The D-fi tunable version is the most versatile ofcourse. You can choose 16 profiles of tuning. But I do think that the presence dip can sometimes make vocals unnatural sounding. Maybe it's just me.
You can't really go wrong out of the three. I also gave comparisons to more expensive sets in my video.
KZ has done a fantastic job recently. They are again pumping out sets, only that, this time, they are really tuned well.
Will they dominate the market again? It's for your wallet to decide.. peace! 😇

terima kasih informasinya bro
Akros actually made a mini review of the Non Tunable D-Fi a few hours ago and his comparison is similar to yours. In his Graphs, the Standard D-Fi is reading 2db more Bass than the highest bass setting on the Tunable, but it has less upper mids and treble. KZ's advertisement is a bit misleading with their own Graph claiming the Standard is set to the default setting in the Tunable version.

I'm totally new to this hobby. İ had no idea that music was this technical and detailed. Could you maybe make a comparison or just a review of the KZ ZS 10 PRO X and let us what you think of them compared to the dfi? Or maybe if you already tested them, which do you prefer?

You say the non tunable dfi is "not as bassy" as it looks in the graphs, does that mean the ZVX sounds more bassy? I'm already considering buying the non tunable but I'm concerned with mid bass bleed or being too warm/bassy. I just want a clean balanced/neutral sound but I also don't want to work with switches with the tunable dfi.

How does the non tunable dfi compare to the Wan'Er SG and the Hola? Which do you think is better and what are the differences between them?
@Practiphile
Жыл бұрын
I havent heard of the hola. But the d-fi has better balance and musicality for me
I think i will like dfi because (7:25, 7:43) of less bass and high on treble because i want it for pubg but still which would perform better in footsteps detection? Zvx or the dfi? I have hola and waner but because of tuning, they are absolutely unplayable. Foot detection is very off otherwise they are good for casual listening. I am regretting for not waiting enough otherwise i would have bought zvx and dfi or dfi and waner. Hola is good but definitely not my type of sound, very laid back and smooth (as per your description it seems closer to zvx), is it?

I have heard good things about 7hz by many but i think it's old now with are replaced by newer iems kz krila (kz zvx and dfi are also good), chu 2, tanchjim one etc. I know about krila gaming performance as one reviewer placed it higher than chu 2 but not by much. I personally would advise you to check tanchjim one.
