Compared the GK Kunten and Vader Balanced and prefers the Vader all day.
Their Vader sounds terrible, perhaps a bad unit.
Has used the Vader Balanced for 2 years and needs a replacement nozzle filter.
The vanilla Vader is their favourite so far.
Is not satisfied with their KZ Vader Balanced.
Got the Vader Balanced 4 days ago and finds it amazing, liking it more than the Castor Pro Bass.
Owns the Vader Bass among other KZs; their unit has a slight imbalance.
Just got the Vader Balanced: a good mix of clarity and bass for gaming and music.
Spent 6 months with the KZ Vader as a basshead re-entering IEMs.

Finds the Vader warm but still balanced, with switches that make a difference.
Doesn't find the Vader satisfying; it lacks bass too much.
