Review on 🎧 KZ ZSN Hybrid Technology Headset: 1BA+1DD HiFi Bass Earbuds with Sport Noise Cancelling - Cyan by Julian Davidson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Excellent clear sound, disgusting amount of high frequencies.

Very good deep bass, clear mids, but highs are very annoying with these headphones. Any music with high frequencies is painful to listen to. I don't know, maybe I'm just very sensitive to highs. I mostly use open-back headphones, with the 58x being my main set of cans at the moment, so I really enjoy my highs, but the highs on these are just unbearable. Instead, I decided to try KZ ES4 after realizing I couldn't. I like ZSN and I really like ES4 more. High frequencies aren't painful to listen to, and the ES4's bass is much better. The ES4 are now my go-to headphones when I go out and are great at isolating. I still rate the ZSN 3/5 stars because for the most part they still sound incredible and the build quality is impeccable for a $20 set. Headphones, but for me personally, those highs are a deal breaker. Others may not be as sensitive to them as I am.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Largely ok, but...
