FinalAudio's ZE8000 are priced high and don't offer many in-demand features, but they deliver superb sound.
Final Audio ZE8000 MSRP $349.00 Score Details DT Recommended Product “Unlike any other earbuds, the Final Audio ZE8000 sound as distinctive as they look.” Pros Cons Boutique Japanese audio maker Final Audio has a small, but very loyal fan base thanks to the company’s work in the wired in-ear monitor space, where it sells beautifully designed, high-performance earbuds that cost as much as $2,100.
Normally, you need a good fit for a set of earbuds to give you the best sound and, if they’re equipped with active noise cancellation , the best reduction in outside noise. However, on the ZE8000, getting that perfect fit can be challenging. The tricky part is that you need to untrain yourself from jamming them into your ears as deeply as you can. Do that and they may feel fine, but sound quality will suffer enormously.
Final Audio uses a 13mm-equivalent aluminum-magnesium dome dynamic driver and a class AB amplifier inside each earbud — exotic, audiophile ingredients that likely play a significant role in the ZE8000’s sound. AB amps are known for their ultralow distortion, and the proof is right here. Roll the volume on the ZE8000 as high as you like. Things just get louder , without a hint of harshness or distortion.
A five-band equalizer can also be used for custom tuning, but it’s super weird. Each of the five slider adjustments has its own subset of frequencies. The lowest slider, for instance, lets you access 35, 60, 110, and 220Hz frequencies — yet only one of these can be altered. When you find a tweak you like, you can save it, however, any further changes you make will overwrite it. The strange thing is that I simply couldn’t hear the difference that any EQ adjustments might have made.
Calling on the ZE8000 is something that should be done indoors, where your callers will clearly hear your voice. Outside, all bets are off. Even the slightest breeze will be picked up by the mics, and your voice will be in near-constant battle with other sounds. Most of the time, those sounds will win.
