“Kicked in the Teeth” – an INCREDIBLY underrated AC/DC deep-cut classic! Well done, Monk!

It really is underrated. I am a Letshuoer / Artti fan in general, and as Timmy’s first set, it was a bit warmer than I expected, a pleasant surprise. I found it had very good imaging too.

People been asking why i didn’t praise the OG MEGA5EST like alot of other people.

Because it wasn’t good. Bass driver sucked - Still does IMO and there was a problem with the treble sounded disconnected from the EST’s.

Alot fixed in the 7th Anniversary Edition but not my favorite Tri-brid.

So I played with new Delci Colab x ANGELEARS from Kefine
And yeah still think the best Single DD under $100 is even better.

4 Hours later in editing for a $50 IEM- “F^ck You” I say to those who say getting a no cost IEM given to you for review is easy.

It’s the same as a $3200 IEM if you care. If you added up my hourly rate I should have been paid $1200 to do this review.

Let’s not forget the 8+ hours of in-ear time and for me 1.5hr of video shooting.

But the KZ ZS12 PRO X is worthy!

KZ Earphones you did good on this one.

Good sound for a good price. Been rocking the tunable version which I picked up for 36 dollars off Aliexpress. I’m a bit surprised to hear from some that the standard version is actually the better of the two. No biggie though.

Could very well be. At least the tunable version still sounds good and I suppose if I really wanted to get to the bottom of the difference for myself it’s only 34 dollars for the standard version to find out atm but I’ll just call it a day and call it good here now.

My Double Header Review’s of the KZ ZS10 PRO 2 & ZS12 PRO X

Best KZ I have heard to date!
Non tunable Version ROCKS!

ZS12 PRO X Score Card
:grinning: Very Balanced , Very Cohesive IEM
:grinning: OMG Solid Build and Rugged Looks are Fantastic!
:grinning: Bass has a nice weight and excellent balance between Sub and Mid Bass energy
:grinning: A great All-Rounder
:grinning: So well priced and represents great Value
:grinning: Smooth clean mids with nice Tonality and Tambre
:grinning: Both Male and Female Vocals Shine
:grinning: Treble is very well done ,Lots of energy and well behaved.

:face_vomiting: Cable sucks Ballz as always and does this IEM no Justice
:nauseated_face: Bass could be better defined
:face_with_head_bandage: Stage depth and 3D abilities are just OK Its $50 … Forgiven
:grimacing: Layering and Depth are just OK $50 Shut Up Monk
:expressionless: Treble could use more secondary texture to the notes.

REALLY - I am just making shit up here being super picky. If this was a $200 IEM the above 5 points would be more relevant.

This thing honestly sounds great at $50 Crazt Times!

Thanks Keephifi for the Unit!
Good Job KZ Iems

Hey Monk, what’s a good recommendation for something under $50 that is easy to drive, like out of a phone, and that is good for watching YouTube, talking to people (discord, etc) and of course plays music well like pop and hip-hop. It’s for a teenager so he wants the cable with the inline mic too.
