Review on 🎧 KBEAR Lark HiFi IEM Earbud: Dual Driver In-Ear Metal Earphones with Detachable Cable by Michelle Carter

Pros: Good build quality and excellent sound quality. Solves all the problems of its predecessor ZS6 and improves in almost all areas. Cons: Slight rider kink on the right side. KZ ZS7 is a hybrid IEM with five drivers per side. The ZS7 features a 10mm bass driver, a 29689 BA midrange driver, a 31005 BA midrange driver and two 30095 BA treble drivers. Accessories: ZS7 comes in black. a box that opens in the style of a booklet. The IEMs are secured and protected by thick foam and have a small metal nameplate. Cable supplied Bronze 4-wire braided copper 2-pin 0.75mm cable. The cable features a memory wire to adjust the earhook. The advantage of a detachable cable is that it can be replaced with a higher quality cable or a broken cable can be replaced instead of replacing the entire earpiece. The kit includes KZ Starline nozzles in three different sizes. The packaging and presentation is a big improvement over the plain white box and plastic wrap that previous concentration camps came in. Build Quality and Appearance: The physical looks and build of the ZS7 are very similar to the ZS6. The aluminum cases are of high quality and radiate a high-quality feel. The front panel is attached with Torx T5 screws; Only two screws actually work, and the screw closest to the nozzle is just a fake screw for looks only. An improvement on the ZS7 is the addition of a lip on the nozzle, which wasn't always present on the ZS6; The lip of the nozzle helps hold the tips more firmly and prevents them from slipping or falling off. The outer grilles on the front of the ZS7 are now angled, as opposed to the ZS6's vertical slots. The metal grille covering the nozzle has round holes on the ZS7, while the ZS6 has a different pattern made up of rectangular slots. The bass port also seems to be a bit further from the nozzle on the ZS7 compared to the ZS6. Despite the metal body and square shape, the ZS7 sit comfortably and securely in my ears for long periods of time without fatigue. Of course, the fit depends on the shape and size of your ears. If you like the shape of the ZS6 or similarly shaped earbuds, you probably won't have a problem with the ZS7. sound quality. The first thing you'll notice about the ZS7 is the bass. Bass hits harder and the subwoofer extends much further without being muddy, keeping bass bleed to a minimum. The mids are also improved compared to the ZS6. Mids have a more direct presentation, more body and detail. One of the biggest complaints about the ZS6 is piercing highs and hiss. So if you find the ZS6's highs too harsh, the ZS7 addresses them with much smoother highs and no hiss. High frequencies still have good clarity and detail, but don't tire. However, the treble roll-off results in a warmer rendition, so those who like really bright signatures or are looking for more top-end power or brilliance might want more. The soundstage is pretty good and I found it to be slightly larger than the ZS6. Instrument separation is also excellent, so complex passages sound natural and not clipped. Soundproofing is average, but with the music on, it drowns out most of the surrounding noise. The ZS7s let a little more sound through than closed-back headphones due to their more open design, but you won't notice a difference unless you put your ear to the bezel. In summary, the ZS7 offers incredible headphone sound quality. Price and are a worthy upgrade from the previous model. The ZS7 appears to have combined the strengths of several popular KZ models; ZS10 dynamic driver, AS10 balanced armature driver and ZS6 aluminum housing. The only downside is that I have some driver flex on my right device, but this doesn't affect the sound quality or interfere with use.
