Compared the XTZ Earphone Sports to the Polk Nue Voe. Compared three artists and songs with and without Dirac. Artist were Nathan East (superb bass player and musician...Clapton Fourplay etc.) Gordon Lightfoot and Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. Songs were 101 Eastbound Sundown and Paris (Ohh LaLa) respectively While the Polk has been my go to headphone for working out (when I can get my lazy butt to do it) they have been replaced. WIth and without Dirac engaged the XTZ was superior in bass treble soundstage dynamics and overall presentation. My notes indicate more snap more focus and more bass definition. In addition they are more efficient so will play louder (but protect your hearing). A clear winner and with Dirac engaged oh wow another level of performance. Like that old cereal commercial said tryem youll likem!

I cannot recommend more about this earphone. At this price it is the best.

Score: 5/5 The sound out of the box was pretty damn good for an earphone in this price range but when I installed the XTZ Player and turned on the Dirac DSP correction Just WOW. The soundstage opened way up the clarity in the bass and highs improved greatly and it just put a smile on my face.- Mr_Owlow Head-fi.org

Score: 9/10 The sound out of the box was pretty damn good for an earphone in this price range but when I installed the XTZ Player and turned on the Dirac DSP correction I was blown away. The soundstage opened way up the clarity in the bass and highs improved greatly.- Luke Thomas droidhorizon

Jag jämförde XTZ Earphone Sports med Polk Nue Voe. Jag jämförde tre artister och låtar med och utan Dirac. Artisterna var Nathatn East (superb bassist och musikerClapton Fourplay etc.) Gordon Lightfoot och Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. Låtarna var 101 Eastbound Sundown och Paris (Ohh LaLa). Polk har varit mitt val av hörlur när jag skall träna (när jag väl får ändan ur vagnen att göra det) de har nu blivit ersatta. Med eller utan Dirac aktiverat var XTZ överlägsen i bas diskant ljudbild dynamik och den totala presentationen. Mina anteckningar indikerar mer driv mer fokus och bättre definition i basen. Ovanpå det så är de mer effektiva och spelar alltså volymstarkare (men skydda din hörsel). En ren vinnare och med Dirac aktiverat oh wow prestanda på en annan nivå. Som den gamla flingreklamen sade testa dem du kommer att gilla dem!

Helt fantastiska! Dessa kommer få dig att vilja lyssna igenom all din musik igen! Synd bara att inte Dirac funkar genom Spotify
