B Tuning
B- Tech
HZSound Luna is a well built, fun and clear 13 mm planar with a bassy, timbre focused tuning, but its intimate stage, uneven treble emphasis and relatively high price hold it back from being a no brainer at full retail. Solid build and accessories with a fun, bassy yet clear planar style tuning that avoids harshness and fatigue. High price for a 13 mm planar with intimate stage, uneven treble peaks and only moderate technical performance compared to similar or slightly more expensive sets.
Youtube Video Summary

Build and accessories on HZSound Luna revive the legacy of the brand with a 13 mm planar driver in a resin and alloy shell that feels solid, slightly weighty and generally well executed, backed by a modular cable, tip selection and case that make the accessory package feel genuinely premium. Despite this, the roughly 109 dollar price positions it on the high side for 13 mm planar sets, especially when similar sounding competitors undercut it, so Luna becomes much more attractive once discounts and big sale events pull the cost closer to the sub 100 dollar bracket where this driver class really belongs.

Tuning and tonality closely follow the familiar 13 mm planar template seen on competing models, but with a more natural balance than earlier attempts, thanks to a raised low end and slightly reduced treble that avoid the lean, thin presentation and planar timbre glare that can plague this driver type. The result is a bassy, upper mid focused shallow V that keeps coherence with the low end, avoids fatigue and gives popular music a thick, fun weight, yet voices do not sound as transparent as on more mid centric planars and the selective emphasis in the treble leaves clear peaks and valleys where different tracks may either sit comfortably or constantly remind the listener of that unevenness.

Technical performance falls in line with other 13 mm planars: clarity is good and imaging remains nicely defined, but resolution and overall capability sit a step behind 14 mm big brothers, and the stage is flatter and more intimate due to the emphasis on bass and lower treble rather than air and upper treble openness. Taken together, Luna offers a clear, bass boosted, timbre focused signature that will appeal to listeners who want a fun but controlled planar style sound without brightness or fatigue, while those chasing the most spacious staging, mid forward vocals or maximum value at full retail may find better options and should ideally target this set during major sale periods.

Highly resolving planar with great acessories package. Straight up better version of the TinHiFI Dudu. Still too much treble with a fatiguing, piercing tonality.
