Design and Build Quality

The Headphone Zone x KZ EDX Pro combines modern aesthetics with functional durability. The housing uses a blend of resin materials and metal trims, offering a lightweight yet robust structure. This design not only enhances durability but also ensures a secure and comfortable fit for extended listening sessions.

Accompanying the IEMs is the Headphone Zone x KZ FreeFall Case, crafted for everyday use and travel. This compact carry case features a tough fabric shell and cushioned interior, safeguarding the earphones and accessories against wear and tear. A reinforced zipper further protects the contents during transport, making it an ideal travel companion for audio enthusiasts.

Audio Performance

At the heart of the EDX Pro is a 10mm Dual Magnetic Dynamic Driver, engineered to deliver high-impact sound with excellent detail retrieval. This driver setup is paired with an electronic crossover that ensures a balanced output across the frequency range.

The IEM features a V-shaped sound signature, which enhances bass and treble while keeping mids clear. This makes it suitable for a wide variety of genres, from bass-heavy electronic tracks to detailed acoustic recordings.

With an impedance of 16Ω and a sensitivity rating of 110 ±3dB, the EDX Pro can be driven effectively by smartphones, laptops, and dedicated audio players.
