The KZ ZSN Pro with Mic is a budget-friendly choice and offers a microphone which is handy for calls, while the Moondrop Blessing 2, at a premium price, delivers superior overall sound quality. For gaming and video, the KZ ZSN Pro outperforms, but for music listening, the Moondrop Blessing 2 is the better option. If frequent calls or budget constraints are your concerns, the KZ ZSN Pro with Mic is practical, but for the best music experience despite the higher cost, go for the Moondrop Blessing 2. Both are wired earbuds, none offering active noise cancelling or wireless connectivity, and both come with detachable cables and are not specifically optimized for use during exercise or air travel.

"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."
"After having the opportunity to finally listen to them myself, I think I can kind of begin to understand why this set in particular has garnered so much hype and praise over the past year, since its release. It’s a truly delightful IEM to listen to, with an outstanding tonal balance that I think most listeners will enjoy, and solid all-around technical performance at a great price."
