If you're looking for great sound quality and comfort, along with versatile use for calls, meetings, and gaming, the Antlion Kimura Duo could be worth the extra investment. They are noted for having superior overall sound and mic quality. However, for a more budget-friendly option, the KZ ZSN Pro (with Mic) also offers decent sound and good build quality. Keep in mind that neither of these is wireless, which is important if you require mobility or dislike dealing with cables. Both lack noise cancelling, so they might not be the best choice for noisy environments or air travel. Give Feedback

Headphones Addict

Peter Susic | February 2023
"Antlion Kimura Duo aren’t packed with features, but the ones they offer, work incredibly well. Especially the boom mic delivers very clean call quality with no distortion. If you explicitly look for gaming in-ear monitors with a reliable microphone, Antlion Kimura Duo are your best option."

David Becker | 2019
"Undoubtedly the focus and the star of the show, the ZSN Pro’s bass is big, bold and bangin’. The amount of gusto in the low end should satisfy anyone who likes a large lick of bass and even certified bassheads will probably get a kick out of this."
