Youtube Video Summary
KZ Taurus is a Keep Hi-Fi exclusive 2DD with dual 8 mm drivers in a horizontal layout, tuned neutral-bright with a clear vocal-focused tilt. Upper mids and lower treble are pushed forward for vivid presence, while a long-glide bass shelf supplies body and a crisp impact; keeping volume modest preserves warmth and balance.
Compared with recent KZ tunings that sit closer to a Harman-style V, Taurus trades big-end excitement for midrange clarity, which also means a more typical stage size and less audible upper-treble air at this price. Vocal tracks benefit most; higher-energy EDM or bass-heavy material will highlight the dominant upper mids, whereas mixed content at lower volumes showcases a clean presentation and solid fundamentals for the money.
