Z22

Released at the NAMM2024 show to rave reviews, we hope you find our new Z22 to be a very special offering.

Never before has an internal speaker been balanced to the degree of the Z22.

Using patent pending technology, the Z22 reduces pneumatic pressure on your eardrum with a novel bi-directional pressure relief port.  The end result is that the speaker is also able to convey nuances of soft and loud sounds without being constrained from internal impedance mismatches.   The response curve of the Z22 is so honest and yet drives powerfully as needed.   The extended high frequencies complete the boundaries of human hearing without harshness.   You will hear things in music for the first time, even though you may have heard that song for 20 years!

The dual magnetic dynamic driver will rock you out.   Put it to the test, and you will find virtually no fatigue due to the bi-directional pressure relief port.   If your eardrum is stressed, it can tighten up, (called the acoustic reflex) and this tightening shifts frequencies and can cause ear fatigue.  Protect your ears with Z22!

Our dual port design is a new innovation as well.   Multi-ports allowed us to fine tune the Z22 without the typically peaks and valleys found in single ported in ear monitors.  Each port naturally has it's own resonance characteristics, but by adjusting the size and location and length, we are able to achieve a more balanced sound without loss of lows or highs.

Our magnetic circuit system adopts dual Neodymium magnets.  Neodymium is a type of permanent rare earth magnet, and is the strongest magnet in the world. Crafted from neodymium, iron, and boron (NdFeB), these magnets provide exceptionally reliable performance while yielding a super high magnetic flux of 1.5t.  The end result is deeper lows, with a fast response mid-frequency. The bass has fast attack, and natural decay, and the sub-bass rumble is noticeable though it won’t rattle your brain. The mid-bass punch also adds body and physicality to the lower region without becoming prominent.

Trust us, this bass is not lacking!  But those looking to drive maximum physicality and slam may choose to go with our custom versions that have even more sub-bass.  We chose this signature sound to appeal to a very wide audience but not those particularly looking for bass dominance.

Our LDMD (Large Dual Magnetic Diaphragm) helps to extend the highs naturally without harshness but deep in character well beyond the range of human hearing.  You will find the Z22 has precise imaging and a wide soundstage.

Finally, note that our Z22 carries forward the award winning shape and comfort from the Zen series of products.   With a highly ergonomic shape, we are able to fit most ears far more comfortably than any other universal model on the market today.  If it doesn't feel good, why would you wear it?!

All of our products are carefully handcrafted by our dedicated technicians, many with over 20+ years of experience, while using the latest technology and equipment to ensure a high quality product for you to enjoy for years to come.
