Knowledge Zenith ED9 happens to be better than Piston 3 :mrgreen:

I placed the order for KZ ED9 on 28th itself and they delivered it today.
In the past i've used Sennheiser CX 180 , JBL TEMPO J01A etc. Currently using Cowon em1
Hope KZ ED9 is really as good as the reviews say

I'm using KZ ED-9 less than one week now, They are very good and suits almost all Genre....From EDM to Classics (By using two different Sound Filter).

Bass response almost near to my ATH-IM70 (BA Driver) for normal songs, but ED-9 lacks in Trance Music where faint to deep Bass transformation happen all the time....and only listener can spot the difference if he/she regularly used BA IEM such as ATH-IM70 / 50.

Anyhow The vocal / classic with neutral sound filter (Brass) is Amazing - My less than 1 week usage I end up using this filter more than the Gold (Bass) filter. Songs from 80/90's or Regional / Classic Rock are rendered perfectly with this filter....Bass is very tight and adequate with good vocal and soothing treble.

I'm looking for Neutral IEM after using ATH-IM70 - Can't afford Hifiman - hence choose this with fraction of price....(please note I'm not comparing those two companies).

Never use Piston 3 - Sure that great one but after usage (causal listening) of Piston 2 - KZ ED-9 defiantly good buy for me.

It's a Chinese brand. Sound quality is good, build quality is good and the price is also good. You can check out its reviews on headfi and xda.

You mean when the 'chord' sorta changes in trance? It can't be heard?

It can be heard but not in detail - To begin with I must not compared ED-9 with 5 Times costlier Multi BA IEM (ATH IM-70), but the Bass is so good and detail in ED-9 with Bass Filter (Gold) I did somehow.

You can perfectly hear those note in Trance Genre - but some segment is left out - Because that is beyond the capability of a Single driver normal IEM when compared to a Multi BA IEM....and again I'm saying it only noticeable when user regularly used such configuration.

N.B: - I experienced above in Album "A State Of Trance 500'" encoded at .Flac for all 5 CDs on my Fiio X1 DAP.

Pardon the pun, but good to hear :cool:

How are they compared to the Piston 2/3?
And KZ ED9 vs ED Special Edition vs ATE ? I can't find the ATE on the Indian site.
So they're the best in their range compared to Soundmagic/Cowon?

^ I too want to know about build quality of KZ's IEMs vs Mi's Piston 3. Been using ES18 for 1.5 years and I don't want new IEM's cables to start stripping by themselves just few weeks after warranty expires.

Piston 3 are comparable to the superior KZ ATE over the ED9 whose sound signature is not what i prefer which has a forward balance. For me its the Piston 3 all the way or the ATE.
