2nd Generation 22955 Bass Driver

All-New Acoustic Structure for ULTIMATE EVOLUTION
KZ Sonata X is equipped with the new-generation 22955 low-frequency driver, featuring redesigned magnetic circuits and diaphragms for deeper bass extension, faster rebound, and more precise rhythm control. The internal acoustic structure has been fully rebuilt, with stronger physical isolation of the three-frequency channels and greater phase consistency, resulting in clearer vocal focus, more accurate instrument positioning, and deeper soundstage performance. Combined with the newly calibrated wide-frequency acoustic graph, it delivers broader frequency extension, smoother transitions, lower distortion, and reproduction closer to the studio master tape level.

Say Goodbye to the "Graph Trap" of Thousand-Dollar IEMs

KZ Sonata X's Graph Advantage Is Obvious
Tested by professional acoustic instruments, KZ Sonata X closely fits the HM natural listening signature graph, from 20Hz low frequencies to 40kHz transparent high frequencies. It shows visible advantages over thousand-dollar flagship IEMs. With a mid-range budget, it achieves full-frequency balance that even many expensive IEMs cannot match. One pair of KZ Sonata X is enough for listening to classical, pop, rock, and more!

High-Precision 3D-Printed Resin Cavity

Accurate Internal Structure for Stable Acoustic Performance
Unlike the rough tolerances of traditional cavities, KZ Sonata X uses a high-precision 3D-printed resin cavity to reshape the internal acoustic structure with micron-level precision. The one-piece resin material combines rigidity and lightweight benefits, effectively suppressing cavity resonance, reducing noise interference, and making mid- and high-frequency sounds more transparent while keeping low frequencies more stable and powerful.

Ergonomic Design

Seamless In-Ear Comfort
Based on extensive ear-contour data, KZ Sonata X adopts a bionic acoustic structure that closely matches the natural ear canal curve. The soft, skin-friendly silicone ear tips ensure comfort even with prolonged wear. The simple wired design offers convenient use, allowing you to focus on pure audio enjoyment.
