New Head-Fier
For Simgot EA500 LM in Universal Fit
Pros: The “perfected” version of the EA500 and EW200!
All-rounder, near-neutral sound signature.
Very good technical performance improvement!
Well-balanced tonal and technical performance in Simgot fashion!
Fast, non-lacking, detailed bass response!
Clear, open, near-transparent mids!
Airy, well-extended sound signature.
Excellent detail retrieval!
Holographic, precise, well-layered technical performance!
Additional tuning nozzles!
Very good fit, comfort and isolation.
Very good build quality!
Excellent among and quality of accessories!
Easy to drive.

Cons: Just like its older siblings, its finish is prone to scratch and smudges.
While arguably a very good improvement fromEW200 and EA500, its overall improvement isn’t a huge leap when compared.
While this set is less bright in sound when compared to the EW200 and EA500, this set can still be shouty or “too much” to sensitive ears.
A cleaning cloth would’ve been a nice treat due to its smudge and scratch prone finish. An additional set or eartips would be a good treat as well.

Headphoneus Supremus
Pros: Maximum clarity from a pure silver AWG22/5N device
Beautiful abundant staging filled with natural image formations
Increases pace and separation from the cable your IEM probably came with
14 different styles of plug choices, along with many other options to choose from
Increased resolution and 3D imaging
Forward vocals formed with IEMs that you didn't know had it in them
Perfect cable middle-size and low-weight gives dexterity and ergonomics
The ear-hooks are lovable
Clarity of bass and bass sculpturing inside the stage
Seems to improve timbre perception in Hybrid IEMs
Special crisp EST additives, bringing about an increase in both definition and clarity especially with the 4 EST Penon Volt

Cons: Cons:
°Despite its improvements over the original ZSN Pro, the ZSN Pro 2 is not without its flaws. The earpieces' fit may not be ideal for all users, with some experiencing discomfort during extended wear due to their bulkier design. Additionally, while the overall sound signature is enjoyable, it may lack the refinement and nuance found in higher-priced alternatives.
°Same as another KZ.. eartips and cable.. soo bad.

Ya the build quality of the iems is really great. The cable...not so much for me.
I bought the Penon Serial based on all the rave reviews but it's another set I just don't gel with.

Been waiting for someone who has the experience same like me. I thought mine was broken at treble driver at first since no one I asked encountered the same issue. Glad that I'm not the only one. I agree that there is no connection between range.
