Product Information

Shozy Hibiki Mk2: the Hibiki Mk2 are, among the headphones presented in this comparison, the most similar to the AS10 in terms of tuning. There are some key differences, though: the AS10 are more balanced, thanks to more treble presence and better extension; midrange is also less warm, and bass is a bit more controlled. In terms of quality, the AS10 seems to have better detail and better instrument separation, which lead to clearer sound. Soundstage is where the Hibiki win, as they are able to present music in a relatively wide space. Midrange is certainly recessed, but not as much so as to sound distant or as to make you wish for more volume. The signature is balanced enough to leave midrange enough room to breathe; instruments (including voices) are placed in the mix so that they are always clearly audible. Tonally-wise, midrange is on the warm side, but gently so: mids stay balanced and the upper range is not too far behind the lower range. This presentation is quite relaxing and enjoyable, especially if you listen to acoustic instruments. It’s decent even if we take a few other matters into account: detail is good enough to deliver the necessary nuances, but you never get to taste the finer ones. Even a few smaller details get lost in the mix, though that’s to be expected. Speed is good, though, so fast transients are rendered with impressive accuracy for the price range the KZ ZSN are in. KZ ES4: the ES4 are more balanced and neutral when compared to the ZSN. They offer less bass presence and more treble extension, while keeping the mids front and centre. The ES4 tend to be more detailed throughout the spectrum, and they also have slightly better soundstage width, imaging and instrument separation. They are not as god in terms of speed and control, though, nor are they when it comes to bass extension.

KZ ES4 Impressions! : r/headphones - Reddit KZ ES4 Impressions! : r/headphones - Reddit

The one issue I found with the sound on the ES4 is common to many multi-driver IEMS and that is they sometimes suffer a bit right at or around the crossover frequency where drivers get out of phase with each other. The ES4 can occasionally display this behavior but for the most part this was something you had to be looking for to find and not a major distraction. KZ opted for their usual V-shaped approach, but this time they finally got it right by avoiding the usual blatant unbalance that plagues most of their headphones. These are still heavily coloured headphones, but at least they’re enjoyable and don’t display excessive peaks or dips. The KZ ES4 is the newer updated version of the KZ ES3 , inheriting some of their main technical specifications like: dual driver, plastic housings, detachable cables. KZ originated, in 2013 advocated ultimate, fashion and simplicity focusing on the faith of revolutionary pursuit ultimate attitude forward life.Can you give me a recommendation for which KZ series for the best detailed wider soundstage, better imaging and better instrument separation?

KZ ES4 - Review | ThePhonograph.net

So DankPods has mentioned both models in his Xmas and Raycon 2: The Rayconning videos. But as someone looking to buy a pair;The KZ ZSN are a bit unusual from a design perspective, at least when it comes to KZ standards: the shell is made of transparent plastic (with a fumé finish in my case, but also available in green/cyan and magenta) and the faceplate is made of metal. It is held in place with three screws, placed in the three angles – as the faceplate has an overall triangular shape. On top of the choice of materials, which is new for KZ, the other news is the shape which reminds me of IEMs such as the BGVP DM6. The shell is in fact similar to that of previous KZ earphones, such as the KZ ZS10 or the KZ AS10, so this is not something that we’ve never seen before. This transparent plastic exposes all the innards, so one can easily see the (relatively) large dynamic driver and the balanced armature. The nozzle is made of metal (aluminium?) which should make it much more durable than usual plastic.

The dynamic driver has a 10 mm diameter and KZ says there is a layer of graphene over it – I highly doubt it, since graphene is still not suitable for industrial applications and is confined to research labs around the world. It seems KZ is using the same balanced armature as that on the ES3: the Knowles 30095. They say it is a custom unit and I hope so, as the entry for the 30095 on DigiKey reports a frequency response of 120 – 7,400 Hz, which appears quite disappointing.Seperation was good throughout my audition with only mild crowding on large orchestral pieces. (This again unlike some previous attempts that sounded as if the philharmonic had been crammed in Volkswagen bus and then asked to perform). Qualcomm CSR8645 is a powerful Bluetooth chip.

These earphones feel pretty solid, but with such a hollow and large casing I would be afraid to step on them. Comfort is rather good, I especially like the ergonomic shape and the lighter weight of the plastic casing compared to metal earphones that often fall out. Qualcomm CSR8645 is renowned for its excellent connection stability, low power connection technology, and high-quality audio transmission.

KZ ES4 – In-Ear Fidelity KZ ES4 – In-Ear Fidelity

Comfort is indeed good and better than I expected; considering the similarities with the ZS10, I thought it would be decent but not that great for long listening sessions. Truth is, I used them all day long for multiple days and only got some fatigue at the end of the day. The AS10 is therefore an IEM you can rely on when it comes to comfort. As subjective as comfort is, I think the KZ AS10 is much more universal than other headphones as it is small and light – so take my thoughts with a pinch of salt, as usual, but also consider the fact that they’re really one of the best IEMs by KZ in terms of comfort. As it is customary for KZ’s latest earphones, the cable is detachable and uses two 0.75 mm pins – so it is compatible with cables such as the AK Audio 4-core 7N copper cable or the Yinyoo 8-core SPC cable. The company claims that the receptacle can last up to 10,000 plug-unplug actions, which would imply a long life for the earphones. Living in Glasgow, Scotland but born and raised near Milan, Italy, I got the passion for music listening as a legacy from my father and my grandfather. Front-facing lights are designed with a 1.5w high-brightness LED light to illuminate the path ahead of you and to increase your visibility to others around you. KZ announced a good few headphones in the last several months, including their new flagship the KZ ZS10. A litte after the ZS10, the company also announced what looks like a directly-derived IEM for a lower price tier: the KZ ES4. Being similar in terms of design and a similar yet simpler driver configuration, the ES4 is indeed better from an acoustic standpoint.

This and the ED16 are the best KZ mids to date. Whoever at the factory that was supposed to scoop the mids must have had the day off as they are more present in the mix than any other KZ in memory. I still hear the ES4 as a V (and the FR graphs prove that out as the mids are nearly 5db behind the treble and 7-9db behind the bass) but the sound is so well proportioned that it does not listen like a big V but more like a shallow V with a lively presence region. The soundstage is wider than deep doesn’t show a lot of height. Here again this is somewhat tip dependant as I found I could influence stage dimensions with the bore of the tips. In all instances, it is fairly intimate, but I could make the stage deeper and narrower by using narrow bore tips or wider and shallower by going to the wide bore tips. (Ymmv as this is the musing of an old fool). KZ has always dealt with dynamic drivers, whether it was because they made pure dynamic IEMs or becaude they used them in hybrid configurations. They never opted for balanced armatures only configurations so far, but the KZ AS10 is the first to stray away from the traditions and to do away with dynamic drivers to offer five balanced armatures per earpiece. And, much to my surprise, this is also the first time KZ manages to produce a product with proper tuning.
