KZ KZ - ES3 Αποσπώμενα ακουστικά HiFi

Well, here we are wih another great product from KZ.

Nice white simple package, solid, mature. Now people do not say it costs 10 $ maybe 15$ bucks. Different from previous black boxes (meaning a better, cleaner presentation way <speculators, get off!>).

For sure, it looks to enjoy even better construction along to proprietary shape this time (not Senn, CA + three other brands borrowed designs). Both b.a. and d.d are quite visible (a small piece of black foam too). These '' aquarium '' styles always get my attention. Pleasant to eyes. No gaps or errors. Although, same old rubbed cable, with mic. Star tips of course.

Almost same size of ZST however fits better inside the ear, staying fix. Involving, filling whilst not heats or cut the channel sides. Sound isollation could be considered quite effective at least.

About what matters: I can describe the sound as punchy and clean. Easy to get used and enjoy.

Tested playing Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd songs, some blues, country, metal and Bach, Srauss, Andre Rieu for classical (lives and studio recs) with Nokia 501, X1 plus a Acer notebook (with / without EQ - MP3 128/192 / 320 or FLAC 44/16). Common sources.

There is a lot of bass -good amount - and focus in highs, details -they do not hurt being excessively bright or sparkly. Equalization does not appear to be necessary. When you want it to kick, or shine, the job will be done. The soundstage / transition is pretty much accurate and voices can be heard without any difficulty. Drums, violas, pianos and guitars are certainly good placed.

A bit more resolved than ZST Color (what includes bass too). Comparing, ZST Color has a more flat response before 400Hz which could translate into less energetic and not so vivid characteristc than this ES3.

A unbelievable gem under $50 that could cost $500 Trumps? Hum... Do not get me wrong: A consistent earphone for this price range. They worth. If you already own ZST / ZST Pro the ES3 is a useless '' just for fun upgrade ''. Money bags (only) fellings. Unless you have no earbud or wanna skip ZST line. Instead, for further resolution and overall experience I would suggest to save money and get the ZS5, ZS6.

Suggestion

Just the cable. Buying the silver one is a must.

Отправили сразу после оплаты. В Украину доставили за 2 недели Новой Почтой. Наушники нового для меня типа, покупал ещё не зная что получу в результате, но решился так как была очень приятная цена по распродаже. Результат превзошел все мои ожидания. Звучат круто, в ушах сидят плотно. Шнур можно заменить на блутус-модуль. Есть и низкие частоты и самые-самые верха. Знакомая музыка зазвучала по новому. Добавляю видео с распаковкой. Покупкой очень доволен. Спасибо.
Sent immediately after payment. In Ukraine, delivered in 2 weeks by Novaposhta. The headphones are new for me, I did not know what I would get as a result, but I decided because there was a very nice price on the sale. The result surpassed all my expectations. They sound cool, they sit tight in their ears. The cord can be replaced with a bluetooth module. There are low frequencies and the very topmost ones. Habitual music sounded new. I add video with unpacking. Purchase very satisfied. Thank you.

-Fuertes bajos (mucho) y buenos agudos.
-Hybrid drivers.
-Cuenta con micrófono y el tamaño del cable como de la caja es pequeño (cuenta con el micrófono y un botón para cambiar canción o contestar/rechazar llamadas)
-Cuenta con 3 pares de gotas de diferentes tamaños.
-Repito, tiene muy buenos bajos (aunque a mi me gustan tanto los bajos que lleguen a producir demasiada vibración) y buenos agudos (sonido HIFI).
-Comandos de voz en inglés y de fácil comprensión. La voz no se distorsiona y se escucha nítido y no fuerte. No llega a ser molesto.
- Muy baratos en comparación de otros audífonos con la misma calidad de audio.
-Cuenta con accesorio (que no viene incluido pero se encuentra por 5 dollars o un poco más/menos ) para utilizar los audífonos inalambricamente mediante bluetooth.

Suggestion

-Cable luce de baja calidad.
Al principio es incómodo el uso de ese tipo de audífonos aunque con el tiempo se acostumbra uno a los kzt.
-La conexión del cabezal con el cable luce frágil y se necesita fuerza para hacer unión.
-Las tomas son muy invasivas para mi gusto. Cambié las gotas por unas que ya tenía a mi disposición.

- Fone diferenciado em todos os apectos, tanto visual, quanto sonoro com seus drivers multiplos.
- Cor roxa bonita e ao mesmo tempo discreta, por ser escura e ficar pro lado de dentro do fone. Diferente do modelo ZST que tem cores espalhafatosas. O escrito ES3 no lado externo tb confere um visual bacana.
- Som espetacular. Todas as frequências bem definidas e equilibradas. Ao equalizar no player, ele aceita bem as alteraçeões sem distorcer ou enfraquecer qd mais requisitado em determinada faixa de frequencia.
- Vedação excelente. Não escuto quase nada do lado de fora, e sem ficar com a sensação de ouvido entupido que alguns fones intra auriculares deixam.
- Possibilidade de vira bluetooth comprando o módulo separado.

Suggestion

- O plastico utilizado não é o melhor de todos. Não chega a ser ruim, mas visto que temos outros fones chineses (como o Rock Zircon) que é construído em cerâmica em um acabamento ultra fino, vc nota que o plástico poderia ser um pouco melhor.
- Não gosto do conector 90 graus. E o acabamento dele tb não é dos melhores.
- Podia vir com estojo ou bolsinha pra guardar e proteger como alguns modelos.
- Encaixar o fio no fone é um pouco dificil na primeira vez.

Packaging was very nice. Looks high end with the white box. All supposed inclusions are present. The cable was neatly coiled all the silicon buds are present.

Sound quality is phenomenal (you have to use the ear bud set that fits your ear properly to get the best sound quality). Low ends are quite modest but defined. It also have just the right sub bass. A great improvement for listening experience since my ZST. The highs on the other hand is a bit high to my preference but not really that much of a difference. But on my iPhone 4 it's produced quite a balanced output. Overall the KZ ES3 is I can say a balanced output IEM. And it's authentic KZ.

Suggestion

The set I got has some kind of rattling sound at moderate volume parts of a song. Sounds like that of a blown plastic driver on ear phones. The mic and play/pause/skip is also hit or miss sometimes it doesn't work at all but my phone LG G3 is known to have problems with the earphone jack so I think the latter is my phone's fault.
