The Jays Audio x ZiiGaat Estrella delivers a thrilling V-shaped signature that prioritizes fun and engagement. Its standout feature is the commanding sub-bass, powered by dual dynamic drivers, which delivers seismic rumble and physical impact without bleeding into the mids—perfect for bass enthusiasts seeking both power and control. Mids remain clear and forward enough for vocals to cut through, though they occasionally take a backseat to the low-end spectacle, leaning toward a warm, lush presentation.
Treble shines with energetic sparkle and strong extension, enhancing micro-details and air, though its peakiness can induce fatigue in longer sessions or with bright tracks. Technically, the Estrella impresses at its price with expansive soundstage width, precise imaging, and detail retrieval rivaling costlier models, though timbre can occasionally skew artificial in complex passages. The lightweight resin shells ensure comfort, but the accessory package disappoints—the flimsy stock cable and mediocre tips demand aftermarket upgrades.
