KZ Linglong - ranked #497 of 657 In-Ear Headphones · Editor's rating 3.4/5

#497 KZ Linglong Discontinued eBay

Pros: Bass is lifted about 2.3 dB with extension to 20 Hz, giving kick drums and bass lines extra weight. Lower mids sit within about 0.5 dB of target, keeping voices and guitars natural. It uses 1 x dynamic with an easy 25 ohm load.

Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. Presence sits about 3.1 dB low with a 5.7 dB dip near 10.6 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
