Pros: A broadly balanced tuning with a preference score of 68 against the Harman target.

Is the Penon Voltage right for you?

Buy it if

  • you are sensitive to bright or sharp treble (treble sits 4.5 dB below target).
  • you want sub-bass rumble that reaches down to 20 Hz.
  • you are happy to use EQ: our preset lifts its Harman match by about 22 points.

Skip it if

  • you want the best value: the higher-rated EPZ G10 costs about $575 less.

Frequency Response

How the Penon Voltage measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is the median of 5 independent measurements, so one odd sample or rig cannot skew it, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
