The KZ house sound, by the numbers
Across the 74 measured models, the most common tuning is bass-heavy (32 of 74, 43 percent). Next most common: warm (14), near-neutral (13).
The model that needs the least correction is the Vader Balanced (on-on-on-on), with no band more than 0.8 dB from neutral. The one that needs the most is the S4, off by up to 6.6 dB before EQ.
