... it’s a good bet that if you’re looking for warm, musical listening experience from a pair of earbuds that won’t leave you feeling acoustically claustrophobic, Zn has all the right elements in place.

After an overnight burn-in, these have somehow transformed into a solid pair of in-ears. A lot of the low end muddiness I originally complained about is gone.

Once you’ve found just the right size of silicone tips for you, these earphones block out as much noise as you’d expect from headphones advertising passive noise blocking.

The Zn's do one thing that the others just don't touch, BASS. These little guys hit hard, and they make the music sound bright and exciting. The soundstage is also incredible, you can just close your eyes and feel like you are at the show or in the studio.

In general, it’s hard to fault the Zn in-ear monitors too much. While they ended up being too bass-heavy for me at times, they blew away most other in-ear headphones I’ve tried before, and, as promised, were competitive with some mid-range headphones that I’ve tried.

It’s hard to believe that the V-MODA Zn headphones retail for just $180, as they rival other headphones that cost much more. I was blown away the first time I listened to them, and I highly recommend them for anyone who’s in the market for some great sounding earbuds. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!
