Description
Planar magnetic IEMs just got better with the incredible KZ x HBB PR2. This planar in-ear monitor, created in collaboration with HBB, uses a 13.2mm unit for a natural, high-resolution performance. Add to that the gorgeous and comfy shell plus an inline remote and mic, and it’s the perfect audio companion for those looking for unparalleled audio when on the go.
Feel the Planar Power
Experience stellar planar power with the KZ x HBB PR2. A double-sided array magnetic circuit system ensures high-resolution audio through a wide frequency range thanks to its 14 N52 rubidium magnets. The 13.2mm planar unit has replaced the voice coil structure with ultra-low resistance nano-silver electroplating lines. This reduces the load on the diaphragm bringing a faster transient response and improved treble.
Dashing Diaphragm
The PR2’s diaphragm has a silver-plated nanoscale circuit fitted on it. To control the accuracy of such a circuit, it needed to be controlled within 2 microns. Due to this highly technical requirement (and cost), the diaphragm is able to offer a faster vibration response, a natural balance of frequencies and stronger transient resolution, compared to regular diaphragms.
Tuned to Perfection
KZ’s acoustic team has precisely tuned the PR2 for smooth and natural tuning. Each frequency band has been regulated to offer an excellent frequency response that’s perfect for various music genres.
Durable & Comfortable
The front shell has been crafted from a single high-density alloy using the die-cast method. This creates a delicate look with a smooth, ergonomic feel. The PR2’s semi-open exhaust design relieves the pressure on the chamber while controlling excess clutter reflection and delivering a natural audio performance.
Cables that Matter
The silver-plated oxygen-free copper cable offers high-fidelity audio for better resolution and efficient audio signal transmission. The gold-plated 2-pin connector makes switching between different cables seamless. Additionally, the inline HD mic with a one-button remote further improves usability.

Customer Reviews
Would recommend getting this over costly planars that try to replicate warm hybrids. You'd get a full planar experience and won't have to spend a lot either.
P.S. - Buy if you have a DAC/AMP that can churn out at least 2vrms, else get ready for trips to the doctor, because without adequate power and burn-in, it's brighter than the sun.
Thanks for the honest review. If you're looking for a true planar experience, the KZ x HBB PR2 Planar Magnetic Driver IEM with Mic is a great option. With enough power and burn-in, you'll be able to enjoy the full planar sound.
not the ist version of HBB, this is a retuned Kz version, need a DAC or an AMP to show its full scale, not recommended for phones, with proper EQ we can replicate the original HBB tuning.
Thank you for your review of the Kz HBB pr2 planar magnetic driver IEM with mic. We are glad to see that you found the IEM to be a good product, and we appreciate your feedback on the tuning. Thanks again for your review.
Very good clarity in all range of frequencies..
Thanks for the review! We're glad you like the KZ x HBB PR2 Planar Magnetic Driver IEM with Mic.
Nice to have a entry level planar ie, treble is bit annoying, bass is limited. but sound stage is noticeably wide. built quality is rigid. as a planar device, it has its own features to justify.

This is not just review, I'm writing it with my bottom of my heart. When I was first time heard this KZ PR2 IEM with stock Cable with stock foam eartips I was 70% satisfied. After wards I was replaced the cable with 4.4mm moondrop and eartips with comply T200 cylindrical foam it's totally changed the tonality, separation , vocal clarity everything is amazing. I was experienced with audezee Planar, s12 pro, but this KZ PR2 IEM is totally outstanding in fro t of them. Bass is so punchy. I like so much. That's why it's a boss Of Planar IEM
Thanks once again Mr Pritamji for suggesting so wonderful product. So quickest delivery

A nice shopping place, easy to make purchases, nice collection, which should be further be enlarged, specially in the segment of Headphones & Amp/Dac.
Crisp and clear vocals with good instrument seperation in this price segment but took time while installing as there is no marking on earpiece.
When my custom made 16 core braided 4.4mm cable for Hifiman Sundara having some issues I have to send it for repair. The I found this cable in Audio Store. I bought it with some hesitation at first but when it arrived oh my God it's an absolute beauty. The cable is sturdy anough and sound quality is top knotch. I am using it with Fiio K7 along with a 2.5mm to 4.4mm adapter. Sound is super clean and open. The best thing is that the cable looks fantastic. You won't find anything like this within 3000 INR price range. Go ahead!!
I’ve been using these with my Sony WF-1000XM5. It has the perfect fit and noise isolation without hurting your ears (which was in the case of the original foam ones from Sony). Highly recommended!
Good Sound quality and value for money. I highly recommend these iems.
Will replace very expensive and established amplifier brands. I have used them as monoblocks with a tube preamp with my quadral m4 tower speakers and it's fabulous sound overall. Well done fosi
There were days when Audiophile's can only dream of getting their favourite iem's in a day or two from reliable and trustworthy sources. The Audio Store has made that dream a reality. Thank you TAS for your commitment and support to this hobby.
The chu 2 dsp out of the box is a bit lean and lacks a bit of bass... But once I changed the tuning through the moondrop link app.... I was really surprised since these are very capable but a bit on the dark side.... I simply set everything in the parametric eq as 0 which lends that I was listening to the analog acoustic tuning only... The bass is thumpy... Imaging and separation is good for the price... Lacks upper treble presence though which lends the overall sound profile towards dark.... But again for the price I can't complain more
I was worried my earphone buttons might not work, but to my surprise, it did. I also think data transfer works, not 100% sure tho.
Overall, it does way more than I expected and I'm super happy with the product. To me, the quality of the audio also seems extremely good, but I can't tell from an audiophile perspective.
With outstanding detail and wide spectrum or nodes it is very difficult to imagine how this tiny DAC could possibly be any better, considering it comes at a fraction of a cost of any apple product it is a True value for Money.
For an entry level USB C DAC this is the finest money could buy. I have used it with Apple Mac, Iphone 15 Pro Max and My iPad Pro. True clear sound when paired with a decent IEM this is music lovers dream come true to experience HI-RES audio.
FANTASTIC.
note - The DAC does not come in with a USC Cable and u will have to invest in a good quality Thunder bolt cable to get the best performance.
I was previously using a small & cheaper BT 2.1 channel power amp with the same Texas Instrument's TPA3255 chip. However, Fosi Audio BT30D Pro works much better than the previous one. The difference is obvious. The only part I can point out is that the mid-range is slightly weak. It's a really good class-D power amp for this price range.
I had owned both the HiFiMan Sundara and the Edition XS few years back - but as with all things audio - started to yearn for a different taste and so moved towards high impedance headphones and tube amplifiers - selling my HiFiMan headphones to buy new gears of interest :-) Recently felt the urge to get back into the planar sound. But didn't want to invest too much to start with - not being sure whether I'd find the experience as enjoyable as the first time. The 400SE fit the bill nicely and I'm glad to report that I've not regretted my decision one bit. Thanks TAS. Greatly enjoying the set. Pairing is critical though - started with the iFi Zen One Signature DAC + iFi Zen Can - but felt something was missing - switched to the Cayin RU6 and immediately got back the exquisite detail and imaging/instrument separation that planars are famous for.
The audio quality is very good. I hear it at neutral settings and use it more than 12 hours a day..It isn't tiring to the ear and sound awesome
For the money, this almost delivers similar to chopin at mid volume levels
