Product Information

Texture and quality is good and the the bass does bleed into the Mids giving them Warmth as with many V-shaped Signatures. It does have more refined treble and the lower-mids are quite lush, making them sound engaging/inviting in certain genres.

Imaging: Imaging is not too bad given the budget (it’s better than Tin T4 so there’s that) but it won’t knock your socks off like, say, Final E500. A V shaped signature means it will have pronounced bass and I feel the bass end of the KS1 is done in good taste and nothing that is overly cooked. Although somewhat recessed, the midrange was still articulate with a somewhat warmish cast in the lower region deriving from the mid bass and it became brighter towards the boundary with the treble. In the package there is the cable, soft and rubbery with pre-formed rings to fit around the ears, and a series of tips in three different sizes: they are quite standard, in my opinion a little better than those generally offered by KZ (the famous starlines).

But, I’m a faithful guy and feel bad to not review them, strangely my proof of respect to Kbear isn’t necesseraly a positive thing here, because it’s quite evident I hate the KS2.

I appreciate KBEAR going with a 2 pin design as 2pin connectors will last much longer, and are easier to use than mmcx connector types. As for the rest, the housing is metal which is definitely a step up from KS1’s plastic housing, but the cable is non-replaceable and even worse than the KS1 cable so there’s that. Vocal are dry and grainy, but female vocal are clear enough to be hearable, male vocal tends to overly be veil by bass.For some tracks, particularly with really, really fast, continuous crash cymbal strikes, there are instances of splash. Layering and separation were generally very good but in more complex pieces and at higher volume, the stage lacked depth and suffered as a result.
