Permanently on sale for $10, a steal at that price given the build and tuning is nice as well. Had some fit issues at first, but ya, another all-rounder.

Solid pick with minor tonality problems around the upper mid-range. 2pin sockets are loose and prone for drops.

KZ EDC PRO Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

B-
  • The tuning leans easygoing, yet occasional unevenness nudges it away from greatness. A bit of EQ polish can smooth things nicely.

Average Technical Grade

C+
  • Technical ability is serviceable, keeping basic detail intact across simpler tracks. It keeps up with acoustic tracks without much fuss.
Bass B-
The bass offers steady support without stepping into the spotlight. There's just enough punch for everyday playlists.
Mids C+
Midrange performance is decent, offering balanced presence without major flaws. It works well for casual background listening.
Treble C+
Treble is decent, offering acceptable extension without harshness. It balances presence with a touch of restraint.
Dynamics C+
Dynamic performance is decent, delivering respectable macro swings with limited nuance. There's a fair amount of macrodynamic swing.
Soundstage C+
You start to perceive distinct rows of players even if the ceiling still feels low. Layering is present but still modest.
Details B-
The mix feels articulate, yet the tiniest ripples don't always sparkle. Background ambience is reasonably clear.
Imaging C
Separation is good enough for casual listening yet misses audiophile precision. Depth remains limited but present.
Gaming C+
Fundamental left/right positioning with limited depth perception. Works for non-competitive gaming but lacks precision.

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • The tuning leans easygoing, yet occasional unevenness nudges it away from greatness. A bit of EQ polish can smooth things nicely.

Average Technical Grade

C
  • Resolution is limited, masking finer nuances and narrowing the soundstage. Busy mixes still overwhelm it with ease.
Bass C-
Expect a conservative bass profile that maintains order but little excitement. Basslines track along but rarely stand out.
Mids D
Mid frequencies swing wildly, colouring vocals and instruments unpredictably. Instruments trade places unpredictably.
Treble D
Highs feel erratic, with dips and spikes that make the signature unpredictable. It alternates between splashy and dull.
Details D
Information density overwhelms it quickly, so finer layers fade beneath the surface. Intricate passages blur when pushed.
Imaging D
Panning effects blur at the edges, making movement sound smeared. Fast panning effects smear noticeably.
Gaming C
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.
