What's up with the price hike on the T2 on Ali lately? I grabbed a pair for $25 two weeks ago and when I went back to copy a link to send to a friend so he could buy, they had doubled in price across the board.

The big anniversary sale was a couple of weeks ago.

Ah, I didn't realize I had caught some kind of huge sale. Figured it was just your normal "No, believe us, these are totally $50 usually and not always $25".

Thanks!

Different dish today, just for fun - not from Asia. Straight from USA. Periodic Audio Beryllium.
1. Excellent IEMs from USA
2. Chi-Fi term is not relevant for me as the best examples of IEMs from China in the ame price range are the direct competitiors.

Why is it posted in this thread if it's American?

I agree with this. And many reviewrs do their reviews like this.
But at same time I understand, being reviewer is hard.
Anyway, in many points about description of ZSN vs. ZSN Pro I do not agree... like ZSN MID`s being "life-like" - heck no, far from it, imho. ZSN slightly harsh/sibilant- again, heck no, it is very much harsh!
But then again, everything is subjective and depends on many factors like, tips, fit, source, amping, brain-burn-in, genre preferences, hearing response etc.

At least, we both agree in the last sentence...

Lol I'm not looking to close this thread, nor to bash you, I think I made that abundantly clear. I also explicitely said my comments were meant as as constructive criticism so indeed, let's leave it at that. I hope you continue reviewing the new KZs and CCAs

LOL! No hard feelings, we look forward to some of your reviews, as well. ...Just advising some positive constructive criticism.

In my take or understanding,

Balanced means balance between all frequencies, or low and highs, same weight, nothing to emphasize. Balanced can be slightly V shaped, with balance between lows and highs, not too big on low or not too big on highs.

Neutral means flat across all frequencies, or flat / near flat, there is no bump on lows, no bump on mids, no bump on highs, just linear. Because of that linear frequencies, Neutral is 1 of balance sound.

So :
Neutral definitely a balanced sound signature
but Balanced sound signature isn't always neutral/flat, it can be balanced slight V.

Yep, think of a balanced diet: nothing in excess!

Appreciate all the answers. I think balanced is mostly used in the wrong sense and as a stand-alone descriptive word which makes the confusion writ large. Thanks a lot

That's a shame. It is a nice review of an interesting IEM.

Almost set this one aside after I lost patience going through filters, but glad I came back a month later to continue testing LZ A6. Now, my full review is up. The crazy thing, I'm enjoying it now (with dark blue filter and symbio eartips) as much as some of the other IEMs I have access to which cost 10x more.

Try replacing "balanced" with "homogeneous".

I find it harsh with a crappy seal but otherwise butter smooth, especially for a budget iem. That said, compare it to some much more expensive or heavily modded/EQ'd stuff, and yeah, most things will sound harsh. ZSN is quite pleasant either way, imo.

I’ve found it to be harsh with narrow tips, such as Starlines, Sony Hybrids, Olives, etc.

Wide bore tips make a big difference. I use Auvios
