KZ VX10 - ranked #379 of 1490 In-Ear Headphones · Editor's rating 4.2/5

#379 KZ VX10: $58 Wireless Discontinued eBay

Pros: True wireless earbuds with a dynamic driver and four balanced armatures each, scoring 76. Bass carries a 2 dB lift down to 20 Hz, and Bluetooth 5.2 with AAC keeps the connection stable.

Cons: The top treble is very bright, with a 10.7 dB peak near 11.2 kHz and a 6.3 dB peak near 7.9 kHz, so it can sound sharp and hissy. Battery life is only 4 hours (20 with the case), there is no noise cancelling, it is discontinued after selling for about $58, and the score rests on a single measurement.

  • you want the tuning most listeners prefer in blind tests out of the box (Harman score 76).

Frequency Response

How the KZ VX10 measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is a single measurement, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
