Most common complaints

In owners' own words

For gaming dont get the kz edx pro...the mid bass is bloated...Get the tangzu wan'er or the 7HZ salnotes for good details and soundstage.

KZ EDX Pro never sounded good in the first place. Very V-shaped sound which bleeds all over the mids. The bass is although pretty satisfying. The treble is sharp and mids are practically non-existent.

Eu tenho um KZ EDX Pro mas não gostei muito, o som é muito agudo em determinados momentos e as vezes parece um som "sujo". Só consigo utilizar depois de por uma equalização.

I just got KZ edx pro(my first iem) few days back, and honestly idk what to make of it. It just sounds very mediocre, despite all the tuning and stuff.

The KZ EDX pro disappoint me soo much i know it's cheap but the quality cable was bs (kz is known for that) and really don't like the sound signature and feel the sound coming from way way far directions

I bought IEM: Kz Edx Pro Wired In Ear Earphone in April last year and by November, they stopped working properly, in LESS THAN 8 MONTHS! Contracted customer care, they said it's a wire issue, which they don't cover.

I had a similar experience with cheap KZ EDX PRO, when I first plugged them in I thought this are not properly tuned, the highs were too high and bass non existent.

I was using kz edx pro and their plastic quality was way better. Also I broke right side wire of edx pros as I used to sleep with them. Right side only work if I keep it at some angle.

I am using the Audiocular D10 paired with KZ EDX Pro or AKG K52. They work fine even when connected via external dock while in Dex mode or on my laptop.
