Bass can be a little bit on the distracting side if you are looking for a neutral sound signature. Contrasty meta-tuning.

Clean balanced tuning done right. A better tuned MEGA5EST & MOONDROP Meteor with fuller low-end, and more treble extension, same tech, but more dynamic - also half the price. A Mega5EST with better vocals and dynamics but less smooth and airy. Low-end will be weak to some people and on certain tracks. Not the most unique sound since it's clean/neutral/balanced.

Clean and neutral with treble emphasis. Great technical performance. Airy and lively treble. Bass could use more impact and weight. Vocals are on the lighter side of things.

Wonderful vocal forward all-rounder. Balanced, clean, detailed, sound. Has Length mode issues. So the Treble might be harsh for some. Nice accessories. Custom designed versions available.

S- Tuning
A- Tech

The EPZ P50 is a tribrid with a 10 mm dynamic driver, two balanced armatures, and two micro planar drivers, implemented in a semi-open back shell and a three-way crossover—an uncommon configuration at this price tier. Listings and spec sheets place impedance at 20 Ω and sensitivity around 106 dB, with interchangeable 3.5/4.4 mm plugs and 0.78 mm 2-pin connectors, positioning it as a flexible daily-carry IEM near the $200 mark.

Subjectively, multiple reviews converge on a neutral-with-bass-boost presentation: sub-bass is tight and weighty when called for, mids stay clear and slightly forward, and treble is extended with extra energy from the planar tweeters. This yields a clean center image and articulate vocals without obvious mid-bass bloom, though the upper-treble emphasis can read “sharper” on some recordings.

Technical performance is competitive for the class: reviewers note solid imaging, above-average separation, and a stage that feels wider than typical sealed IEMs—qualities plausibly aided by the semi-open design and multi-way damping. Trade-offs include reduced isolation versus closed shells and a treble tilt that may fatigue treble-sensitive listeners at high volumes, but overall resolution and micro-detail retrieval punch above its price.

Comment: Imagine getting a 2 pin cable's polarity wrong, please Tangzu work on your QC. Smooth midrange, meaty low with characteristic planar subbass extension, relatively smooth treble; detail retrieval is above average Transition from midbass to lower mids isn't clear cut, not as clean. Doesn't sound special tbh.

Audionotions 6.5 Reviewer Score
Well-tuned, technical, does nothing wrong. Build quality is much better than OG Wu. Even the driver used is different. They should have renamed it instead of keeping the Wu Zetian name because it's an entirely different beast! Love the sound! Well extended, punchy bass, great clarity through mids, treble that is sparkly and well extended without sibilance or fatigue. Shell size is large and I get hot spots when listening for longer periods.
