Brand New Musical Experience "8K SOUND"

In visual technology, the 8K UHD (Ultra-High Definition) standard utilizes 16× more pixels than the general standard to deliver 16× more information and allow smoother color gradient between pixels, resulting in crisper imaging, more natural color toning and smoother motion presentation.

Meanwhile, in audio technology, delivering all the information residing inside a musical piece with utmost accuracy has always been a great challenge. Due to the physical limitations of the equipment used, a lot of this information was left out. Methods used to address this problem vary from employing hardware of different shape, size and material to performing sound tuning focused to a particular frequency range, with all of these methods aiming to improve the overall clarity.

The 8K SOUND technology that has newly been developed by final offers an innovative breakthrough. Instead of focusing only on fine-tuning of particular frequencies, the time element of every single bit of sound is also carefully calibrated with digital signal processing. In doing so, all information residing inside a musical piece is distinctly revealed in its best quality and aesthetics. Overall, 8K SOUND delivers an exquisite sound experience at a level of distinction, detail, separation and speed that has never been accomplished before.

ZE8000 MK2 has been upgraded in various aspects, including the internal structure of the earbuds, digital signal processing, and ear tips. Compared to the ZE8000, it can now rapidly sense the musical experience presented by 8K SOUND.

Immerse Yourself in Symphony with 「8K SOUND」

In conventional earphones, there is often a sound quality design that emphasizes specific frequencies in amplitude frequency characteristics, making it challenging to listen to music recorded with a large number of instruments that have different tones, such as an orchestra. For example, there were challenges in reproducing the intended balance between instruments by composers and performers, where the trumpet might sound too emphasized and loud, while the oboe might sound a bit blurry and soft.

With ZE8000 MK2, thanks to the extremely flat sound characteristics of 8K SOUND, it faithfully reproduces the balance between each instrument in an orchestra without compromising the unique tone of each instrument. Furthermore, it has become easier to consciously pick up and listen to the sound of a particular instrument in the orchestra. When you close your eyes, you can experience an immersive feeling, as if the orchestra is spreading out on the stage of a concert hall.

For those accustomed to listening to music with earphones, there is often a tendency to naturally seek emphasized sounds, and it may take some time to adapt to actively listening. ZE8000 MK2 is designed to shorten the adaptation time to this listening style.

Pressure-Free High-Quality Active Noise Cancellation Technology

Conventional active noise cancellation (ANC) systems often have the drawback of affecting audio quality, such as the suppression of low frequencies. Additionally, if the ANC effect is increased, it may lead to tension in the eardrum or pressure on the head, sometimes even causing dizziness.

ZE8000 employs a uniquely developed algorithm, achieving high audio quality and a comfortable experience without a sense of pressure. In the improved internal structure, earplug design, and noise cancellation algorithm of the new ZE8000 MK2, the noise reduction performance has increased by 32% compared to the original ZE8000. This means it can provide better noise reduction without compromising audio quality and user comfort.

4 Modes for Convenience of Use

In addition to the standard 「Active Noise Canceling Mode」,「Wind-Cut Mode」, 「Ambient Sound Mode」and「Voice Through Mode」, users have the option to select 「 Noise Control OFF」. Thanks to improved sound isolation in the earbuds, the ZE8000 MK2 introduces the new 「 Noise Control OFF」mode.

Active Noise Canceling Mode - Eliminates ambient noise and allows the user to concentrate onto the music.

Ambient Sound Mode - Seamlessly blends music and ambient sound, allowing users to be aware of their surroundings while listening to music.

Voice Through Mode - Ambient sound is prioritized over music, allowing for clear conversations without removing the earphones from the ears.

Wind-Cut Mode - Significantly eliminates wind noise captured by the microphones when there is a lot of ambient air movement.
