ZiiGaat is a new brand composed of engineers who developed some of your favorite IEMs from other brands. It enters the audiophile market with the Jupiter, a tribrid set in collaboration with IEM reviewer HBB, that aims to deliver excellent bass, clean mids, detailed but non-fatiguing treble with a smartly executed frequency response.

When reading your reviews I am always amazed by two things:
1.- How expensive headphones can get
2.- How good your reviews are

At least headphones will forever stay good, but damn, it really is the land of diminishing returns.
Great review!

This is cheap, technically. Can't wait for when @VSG gets to review the HE-1 (never, though it would be cool).

IMO the trebles are both too low and too jagged/peaky relative to the price, competition, and the sheer number of treble BAs + electrostats.

The coupler used (even a standard issue one, let alone a clone such as mine) isn't precise enough in the higher frequencies to really use it as you are. It's best to rely also on how people perceived IEMs in their ears thus.

I have over 20 different earbud tips, and 3 bluetooth earbud sets over the last 3 or 4 years. I for the life of me can not get any of them to fit comfortable or not fall out ten minutes later. I gave up and got these instead and I put the wire behind my neck, I just wish Koss would make a new version with better battery life and no wire and a oversized charging case so that these would have really nice portability factor.

Bought the Jupiter blind having listened to the LTD, MK3, V16 for extended periods of time and not finding those complete. The Jupiter came and did not disappoint at a slightest. Set is so resolving while not having any of that constant fatiguing upper mid or treble attacks that the other sets tend to have when being bolstered by their technicality. Really agreed, I wish more reviews would get a chance to try out the Jupiter. Amazing set of IEM.

Glad to hear that!
