Youtube Video Summary
Ziigaat x Hangout Audio Odyssey 2 comes as a 1DD + 3BA hybrid in a fully metal shell with a matching metal nozzle, venting, and a comfortable, familiar Ziigaat fit. The package is generous: a handsome new case (seen on Luna/Crescent), 4.4 balanced with a swappable 3.5 adapter, multiple tips, and spare filters. The flat 2-pin cable looks good in black/green but is a bit memory-prone/tangle-happy; functional, yet a likely swap for cable sticklers.
Sonically, Odyssey 2 skews punchy in the bass with clean, thick mids and well-controlled upper-mids; the treble is smooth and gently rolled with limited airy “sparkle,” giving a more studio-like presentation. Versus the original Odyssey, this tuning is less U-shaped, with dialed-back excitement and upper treble—safer, calmer, and easier long-term. It’s a well-built, well-accessorized set at a reasonable price that many will find effortless to enjoy, even if thrill-seekers may want more bite up top.
In context, it parallels Lush on upper-mids (no urgent need to switch unless craving a touch more sub-bass or a different treble flavor), feels safer than Performer 7 (which has spicier 8k), and sits under the more vivid Odyssey (OG) and the slightly brighter, airier Crescent. It doesn’t reach the extra sub-bass/air of the Dusk DSP but improves on the original Dusk’s flatter treble character; meanwhile, Ziigaat’s Horizon trends richer and crisper up top. Overall verdict: a solid 8.0/10—mids are the star, bass is engaging if not rowdy, and upper-treble restraint keeps fatigue low. Not the most electric choice at ~$225, but a clean, safe, studio-leaning option with broad appeal.

Youtube Video Summary
Odyssey 2 shifts the OG’s recipe toward a more mid-centric, vocal-first tuning with a gentle sub-bass lift and smoother treble. Bass hits with less slam than the original but feels tighter, quicker, and cleaner, keeping texture competitive for the price. The top end is calmer—less bite, still adequately extended—trading sparkle for an easy, natural presentation.
Clarity steps up in the mids: vocals pop, separation improves, and detail comes through more plainly, while the OG keeps an edge in bass/treble “texture.” It’s a higher-volume scaler; give it juice and it opens up, especially for ballads, acoustic, indie, and pop—less ideal for hip-hop/R&B/jazz where extra weight and contrast help. Tip rolling that adds a touch of low-end/treble energy can inject the missing excitement without upsetting the balance.
Against similarly “safe” sets (Daybreak, P50), Odyssey 2 leans more vocal-centric with better bass texture; versus value champs (Supermix 4, Nova, Chopin), it sounds fuller and more natural but isn’t the value king. Lush gives more air up top, Arcanis/Luna serve as pricier “special sauce” paths if treble bite or OG-style warmth is desired. Verdict: a safer pick and polished all-rounder—objectively as good or slightly cleaner than OG—but for die-hard OG fans, more of a refined sidegrade than a direct, high-octane upgrade.

Youtube Video Summary
Ziigaat Odyssey 2 lands as a premium-feeling set: a CNC-milled aluminum chassis with a sparkly blue/silver faceplate, solid two-pin cable with interchangeable 3.5/4.4 plugs, spare nozzle filters, and a roomy new brown carrying case. The stock cable is nice—though its green tint doesn’t quite match the shell’s aqua tone. Tip selection is generous (foam plus two silicone sets), and the newer silicone tips are a standout. Overall, a tidy package for the price.
Tuning follows the current “new meta”: energetic low end with a cleaner sub-bass attack/decay than sets like ZENs Top/Top Pro, which helps in games. Bass stays punchy yet controlled, so imaging and separation/layering come through well, though gunfire can still push forward. For pure music the bigger, rumblier sets may feel livelier, but for competitive play Odyssey 2 reads space more cleanly and keeps clutter down better than bass-heavier rivals.
Title by title: in Valorant it sounds natural and punchy with tighter gun reports and better map imaging—footsteps are a bit thicker and light taps could cut more—earning a B+. In Apex it’s cleaner than ZENs Top Pro and fine in 3v3s, but big third-party fights expose some separation limits; call it a strong B (bordering B+). In CS2 the positional read improves over ZENs Top Pro, though lighter surface cues and gunfire depth could be crisper—solid overall. Call of Duty plays to its strengths: warmer timbre, wide/deep stage, excellent layering during streaks, with only occasional gunfire masking—another B+. Net result: placed in the B+ tier on the WallHack list, at the lower edge bordering B, similar to the original Odyssey’s standing.

Youtube Video Summary
The Ziigaat Odyssey 2 arrives as a collab between Ziigaat and Hangout Audio (tied to Crinacle), essentially a Crin-influenced set in disguise; it’s a 1DD + 3BA hybrid priced around $250. Accessories are thoughtful—three ear-tip sets, spare adhesive filters, and swappable 3.5/4.4 terminations—though the long, friction-fit plug feels awkward. The metal shell is medium-sized with a short nozzle for a shallow fit; comfort is easy, stability average, and the thin green cable is softer than prior Ziigaat attempts with a chin slider that actually holds.
Tonally it lands squarely in the tilted diffuse-field “meta” neutral camp: natural vocals, tame upper-treble, and a slight 4–6 kHz lift that adds clarity and a more contrasty/clinical edge without harshness. Imaging and separation are clean for the price, but the sub-bass-focused boost leaves the low end marshmallowy—tactile yet soft, with kick drums short on slam. Overall balance is convincing and easy to live with, just not especially exciting.
Versus Ziigaat Lush, Odyssey 2 is crisper and more defined where Lush sounds darker, smoother, and a bit low-res, though Lush hits mid-bass a touch harder. Against Softears Volume S (costlier), Volume S wins on bass grip and midrange texture, sounding fuller and more engaging while Odyssey 2 stays cleaner but more clinical. Conclusion: a very good set in a crowded mold—3/5 for a refined meta tune with agreeable timbre but modest bass impact.

The Ziigaat Odyssey 2 is a hybrid 1DD+3BA IEM using a 10 mm bio-cellulose dynamic driver for lows and three Knowles armatures for mids/treble, housed in lightweight aluminum shells with a detachable 0.78 mm 2-pin cable; MSRP is $249. These configuration details and accessories are documented on the official retailer listings and brand pages.
Tonally, Odyssey 2 aims for a neutral-with-sub-bass-boost presentation (a diffuse-field tilt with a ~100 Hz shelf), yielding controlled rumble, clean mids, and smooth but not overly bright treble. This characterization aligns with independent impressions and the maker’s own “reference-grade tonal balance” language.
Technical performance is competitive for the price: detail retrieval and imaging are above average, while stage size is moderate and dynamics are decent rather than explosive. Community reviews and creator tests broadly echo this—praising clarity and control, with some placing it around mid-to-upper tiers for value in both music and gaming contexts.
