Okay so I bought it after reading reviews and responses from people saying that it has good bass and all that and are super great. But the product wasn’t as good as everyone had hyped up it as. I’m not saying that it’s a bad product but it wasn’t up to my taste or expectations. I am used to normal wired headphones and the normal tws oppo enco buds. I like the bass they provide, I’m not into too much or too little, I just liked the perfect amount that I can feel in my ears and doesn’t overwhelm the rest of the audio and makes it muffled. The oppo enco are a bit light when it comes to base but not bad, but the lack of bass is clearly visible when listening to phonk and other bass heavy sounds. Now kz zsn pro x have a really flat sound and have a constant hiss that is really annoying, but a lot of reviews mentioned good bass but I don’t feel it at medium or low volumes and these kz’s get really loud at high volumes so that’s a no go for me.

So please tell me what am I doing wrong so I can fix it or simply return them.

Disclaimer: I am not an audiophile and had limited budget so I only bought these and no replacement cables and other possible attachments.

    The KZ ZSN Pro X isn’t really recommended anymore. Yes they do have a lot of hiss depending on your source. Years ago, KZ did have an upper hand compared to the competition at the time, but nowadays, their tuning is considered shouty, and there’s IEMs for the same price which many would consider as better tuned

    So, if you’re having issues and you don’t like it, don’t feel that you’re doing something wrong.

      Thanks dude, and yes I already returned it. They were really annoying to use. Do you have any suggestions that have actual bass in it that is not too overwhelming? Really appreciate the response.

        It’s sort of difficult to calibrate to your expectations, the ZSN Pro X are extremely bassy, most “audiophile” types would find them too bassy and bloated. So if you’re saying that’s too little, either you have extreme basshead taste, or you had a bad fit and the bass was leaking.

        Looking at some graphs for the Oppo Enco X2 in “classic” mode the bass is quite boosted but also reasonably well separated and close to Harman. OG Enco could be different though. If you are looking for something like that, the original Truthear Zero (blue) might be a good match. If you want more bass, the QKZ x HBB Khan. The KZ Castor is also a good much cheaper option, better than the ZSN Pro X. Black if you want more bass (a above Harman), silver if you want more balanced (Harman).
