#509 ZiiGaat x Jay’s Audio Seraphim: $259.00 Amazon $259.00 eBay
Pros: A hybrid IEM at about $259 with isobaric dual 10 mm woofers and three Knowles armatures, and a preference score of 74. Bass is lifted about 2 to 3 dB with full sub bass, and the midrange and treble avoid any big peaks.
Cons: Presence is 2.1 dB low with a 3.6 dB dip near 3.7 kHz, so vocals can sit slightly behind the bass. At 9 ohms it favors low output impedance sources, and the score rests on a single measurement.
Is the ZiiGaat x Jay’s Audio Seraphim right for you?
Buy it if
- your taste runs bass-heavy: it scores 83 for that sound.

- you are happy to use EQ: our preset lifts its Harman match by about 20 points.
Skip it if
- you want the best value: the higher-rated QCY HT05 MeloBuds ANC costs about $225 less.

Frequency Response
How the ZiiGaat x Jay’s Audio Seraphim 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 a single measurement, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: a single measurement from the squig.link database of hbb. Thanks to them for publishing their work.
