Great review Paul, too many other sets, custom and stock sets I’m saving my coin for. I’ll bet you have a good idea which ones I’m talking about too..!
This is a no contest : you can shop the KZ Zex for $9 vs $59 ( _Quiet Sea_ ) at the moment on AE. Is $50 worth it just for a few tweaks with EQ ? I'm satisfied with the ZEX single DD accurate tonality : it's good.
I am with you. I mention ZEX to KZ every couple of months. Eventually I will convince them to Pro 2 or Pro X it. I think using one of their updated drivers or 2DD would make a great refresh of that model.
You can make it work. If there is a bit of a gap, that generally is workable. I have done it intentionally. A denser tuning filter would most likely drop both peaks towards the target. The 7-8k, not so much.
I keep it simple and use graphic but something tighter, such as 2. If I am doing PEQ, I usually prototype on squig, you can type in 2200hz -2 2 and see it.
Best reviewer in the game rn. Keep it up man.
nice one. thanks.

It is almost too small, disappears in your ear.

That graph though 😅
It's something
I wonder if one could slap a Tanchjim filter on the nozzle grill to tame the peaks or it would not work with the oval shape.

When you bring down the treble in those spots around 2 db what number is a good starting point for the q factor? (I think that's the term)

Can you get oval replacement eartips from Ikko?
Probably. I was just surprised there was only a single set when I know Ikko has a nice collection of oval tips. Oval tips aren't required though.
