Has anyone else got the ZNS Pro 2?

I have it. It’s a good complement to my EW200. I noticed you have that one as well. I also have the Moondrop KXXS; I think the soundstage is wider and maybe slightly deeper/similar on the ZSN Pro 2. Even though the graphs out there indicate bass overall should be more on the ZSN Pro 2, it has more control and less bass bleed into the mids than KXXS imo. Treble can be a bit spicy depending on the tips you use; Moondrop Spring tips and JVC Spiral Dot tips elevate the lower and upper bass a bit (I think it helps to mask some of that treble harshness) - they measured very similar on my MiniDSP EARS. It’s definitely not as harsh as ZSN Pro X.

Indeed i was surprised at the balanced tuning and as you rightly pointed out the spiral dots do what they are supposed to do.

Now that's a graph like a roller coaster! Congratulations KZ, I've never really seen that before

Tak to je milé stretnúť tu ďalšieho Levičana. Ktovie koľkí sa tu ešte vyskytujeme? Srdečne zdravím...

I have been testing the PR3 via a balanced 2.5mm 25 Ohm adaptor. Wonderful with a smoother and somewhat warmer and musical tonality without losing the technical performance Definitely recommend trying this if you have the PR3.

This on the ZSN Pro 2 sounds pretty good.

When I click on your home town in your profile, it shows my hometown. I thought that matched reality...

Hello,

Just dropped my KZ collection; my favorites are PR2 HBB, HM20 and ZS10 Pro.

Has anyone owned or tested both the AST and the AS24? Bonus points if you've also tested the BA10. I'm curious about the differences.

I have not heard the AS24 but you may like to see my review of the AST which has a comparison to the BA10:

Indeed, thank you so much!

Opinions on AST are quite polarised. I personally consider them to be the worst KZs I own. They have heavily muddy bass that bleeds into the mids and a total lack of sparkle in the highs...

KZ Symphony has arrived. I had a quick listen before setting them up for burning in and the mids in Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance No 4 were a little distant. Staging was very good and treble extension similar to the PR3 but not as bright. Bass was excellent, with very good ambience and decay. Hoping the mids will improve after burn-in.

Thought this would be fun to post here...
