In- Ear pre-purchase

Post by eliwwjd »

Has anybody of you have had experience with the KZ AS16 Pro?
I’ m thinking on getting these but wanted to know your opinions. They state about 26db noise issolation which is what im looking for.
Also where is the best place to buy them, Amazon, Linsoul website or KZ audio website?
I was confused when going to amazon website because it states the seller is Linsoul but the IEM are KZ. I was thinking well who makes them KZ or Linsoul.
If anybody can give me some help here because at the moment i have no IEM, and i need a pair for church asap.Unfortunately my budget is not so high at the moment so thats why i looked into these KZ AS16 Pro due to the noise isolation
of 26db they state.

I've purchased the Linsoul KZ line for myself and my band for several years now. Great products for the money!

Quick tips:
- you can buy them almost anywhere online
- although they include cheap tips and a cable, it's worth upgrading both
- they take a while to break in, you can accelerate the process by simply playing music through them when you're not around.

I keep coming back to the five driver basic model, but I think they're all good.
I think I have gear issues ....

Since your working with a limited budget these look like they will probably work well for you, but be aware you are NOT going to get 26db of isolation The only review I found actually says between 15-26db depending on the frequency and even that would be best case scenario with a perfectly fitted IEM). These are universal fit, so are never going to be a perfect fit as every ear shape and canal is different, not to mention the fact that you will be moving around on a loud stage not sitting in coffee shop.
