Review on Explore Exceptional Sound Quality with the Tangle-Free KZ ZSN Hybrid Driver IEM in Black Cyan for Musicians by Darion Wooten

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent value headphones

If you want to enjoy your music and are not a professional musician/producer or audiophile, these headphones might be for you. Powerful bass, bright highs, deep mids - the classic form of "EQ" for enjoying modern music. The bass is technically unrealistically strong, the mids are too deep for critical work and the highs are bad. "crisp"', although they can sound quite harsh (compared to the best headphones - otherwise it's not immediately noticeable). A lot of people comment on the hiss, but I didn't hear too much, what I heard instead was just a poorly tuned one and pressed high-end - it sounded almost crisp - you get a lot of highs but it doesn't sound very natural or "nice".It's a bit like listening to a song on the radio and compared to hearing it gets some of that static sonic edge elsewhere. That's the kind of highs you get with them. They're good as an IEM on stage, but the CCA C10 is better in every way. However, they have a similar sonic signature, so they're different Not significantly different, CCA has less unrealistic bass, slightly more present mids (which makes a noticeable difference for IEM applications and critical listening) and similarly boosted highs, but it's more tuned and more musical. Great launcher, good cable, no case and this design/shape is not very comfortable for me. (No CCA either, but they sound better).

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other models
