About this deal

I think this is where these IEMs shine. The KS2s have a pretty good bass response, especially in the sub-bass. The mid-bass is also pretty impactful but occasionally gets a little messy. Like the KS1, the BL-01 has a warm V-shaped tuning with a mid-bass emphasis, recessed mids and average detail retrieval, but a believable natural timbre. In this respect it resembles the earlier, similar-sounding BL-03. The bass has a mid bass emphasis and is slower than that of the KS1 which has a better transient response. The mids are more recessed than the KS1, but the treble on the two is quite similar. The KS1 achieves a much better fit than the BLON which is problematic with its very short nozzles and poor cable, although the build quality is superior. The more even response of the KS1 just nudges it ahead for me. Knowlege Zenith, for example, shows with the ZSN Pro that you can get better haptic and aesthetic (I know this is a matter of taste) at this price.

The KS2 has an almost outrageous V-signature, but it's really fun and the mid-range is not neglected. My biggest dig at the KS2 is that I feel like the earphones are having an identity crisis. The boosted bass feels like it should be marketed to those who love bass-heavy music, but the inability to separate instrumentation and similar frequencies completely destroys EDM and like genres. In my opinion, the best-served genre for the KS2 is, surprisingly, acoustic, or lo-fi electronic. According to KBEAR the cable consists out of strands of 6N OFC high-quality wires. The cable has an exchangeable 2PIN wire design which allows easy cable rolling. Sound: The presentation of the KBEar KS1 mostly leans towards the low frequencies and exhibits a warm, V-shaped tuning, though treble is mostly kept in control.

These are a fairly narrow IEM and have a low profile in your ears. I personally find the KS2 to be an extremely comfortable IEM. Furthermore, the earphones fit very securely in my ears and stay in place without me having to continually reposition them over time. As for the tips, they were fine for me though some failed to get a good seal. I will recommend KZ Starlines if you’re having some fit trouble. I’ll admit—V-shaped headphones are probably my favorite. I enjoy elevated bass and detailed treble; those things make listening fun. There’s certainly a time and place for hearing things as the producer intended, but when you’re buying any headphone with a sound profile like the KS2, you know that you’re not going to be getting that. The KS2 is super efficient and can be powered by any source included smartphones. It has a light V-shaped signature with punchy bass, clean midrange and sparkly but even treble. It has good clarity and a large soundstage. In my opinion, it is currently one of the best performers around its price point. Bass

I recently received a few pairs of IEMs for review. The KB EAR KS2 was the first one of the group that I tried. I have linked to the full album because, for those who like this type of music, it is worth listening to. Separation is good, with well-defined spatial positions, but the cramped soundstage prevents it on getting its full potential. E500 owns this part as well where both male and female sound very good on this set. KS1 on the other hand has a lower treble to dominate in vocals which give a perception of thinness and detail. Tanya is a bit mixed up depending on source as it can sound great with certain neutral source but recessed on certain sources; including Apple dongle usb C.The CSA has a more neutral tuning than the KS1 and is much brighter in the treble. Bass is sub bass focused with good extension and no bass bleed, the mids are forward with good detail but perhaps not as natural a timbre, and the treble is bright and extended. As a hybrid, it is more accomplished technically than the KS1 and is more immediate in its presentation but is more analytical than musical and therefore may be considered as an alternative rather than a competitor. The body of the KS2 is made out of plastic and feels pretty lightweight. While this is beneficial in terms of comfort, it does concern me a bit about the fragility/durability of these IEMs.

Between the narrow sound stage, the extreme V-signature, and the muddy tonality, the KS2 feels like six earphones in one, and for some, that’s going to be quite an interesting combination.Bring him Home", from "Les Miserables" received a heart-warming performance from The Piano Guys. The timbre of the cello and piano was very authentic. The effect was perhaps a little larger than life in the lower notes, but the emotion and feeling of the piece was conveyed most effectively, with the two instruments both contrasting and complementing each other. This kind of material was perfect for the KS1.
