Reply to comment by c0ng0pr0 in KZ PR1 Pro ($40 Planar IEM). Too good to be true? by GuitarHentaiMan

too much air apparently. somehow

haven't listen to PR1 but some reviewer state it, it was tuned down in PR1 Pro. My PR1 Pro is in the mail but free delivery will take its sweet time to arrive.

I wonder what “too much air” means. Some Atmos tracks I listened to sounded like things were far apart or had too much space between the sounds… but I think those are artifacts of the way those tracks were mixed/designed.

You can really hear bad studio mixing on the PR1. A lot of new hip-hop/rap sounded like crap audio design/mixing.

I’m going to get in a studio with another music producer or two soon. Hopefully once my PR1 Pros arrive we’ll go do a full demo to explore.

well, early impression if PR1 Pro said its a bit more intimate than PR1 in soundstage.

And yeah, with relatively higher resolution/details that Planar could give, you will hear bad mixing easier.
