Reviews Comparison

Audio Amigo 4 * score rescaled + normalized
Best KZ Planar IEM. Warm, bassy sound, lacking a little in dynamics. Foam tips come worn down in the package. Shrill tonality in higher treble for some listeners

Audio Amigo 2 * score rescaled + normalized
Highly resolving planar. Wonky harmonics, too much treble energy, fatiguing tuning. You don't know what you'll get when you order.

Weird upper trebble is killing it for me, but it might be good for you.

Solid technical performance. Imaging and resolution much better than the price would suggest. Stage is average to intimate. Well-tuned planar - decently balanced. Treble can be very spicy and zingy - I had to use Final E tips. Kind of a no brainer at this price point - on sale for 30 makes this even crazier. Planar timbre.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D+
  • Expect a patchy tonal profile that makes instrumentation feel mismatched. EQ is almost mandatory to tame the response.

Average Technical Grade

E-
  • A foggy, one-dimensional presentation wipes out layering and obscures the finer points of a mix. Spatial cues barely register at all.
Mids C+
Midrange performance is decent, offering balanced presence without major flaws. It works well for casual background listening.
Treble E-
The top end feels muffled, with air and shimmer barely audible. Ambient reverb tails are chopped short.
Dynamics E+
Subtle shifts disappear, with transients lacking bite or urgency. Drum hits arrive without conviction.
Soundstage C+
You start to perceive distinct rows of players even if the ceiling still feels low. Layering is present but still modest.
Gaming E
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
