KZ x HBB DQ6S: For Lovers of Big Bass

The video is in Arabic.

Hey everyone,

The KZ x HBB DQ6S is a collab between the reviewer HBB (Bad Guy Good Reviews) and KZ, and a retune of the KZ DQ6. Three dynamic drivers (one 10 mm and two 6 mm), 25 ohm and 116 dB sensitivity according to the company, and a 0.75 2-pin connector. A plastic shell with a metal faceplate.

Who is it for?

• Fans of a big bass quantity (quantity, not quality).

Strengths

• Strong bass in big quantity, and it extends down really well.
• String instruments sound beautiful, as long as the track isn’t busy.
• The treble is smooth and easy on the ears with very good detail.
• Resolution is very good, and separation is very good for the price.
• Easy to drive on any source.

Weaknesses

• Bass bleed: the sub-bass bleeds into the mid-bass, and the mid-bass into the mids.
• Bass control is below average, and the mid-bass is a bit boxy.
• The mids sit behind the bass and treble.
• The soundstage is average, and small details are only acceptable.
• It’s big, and it tires me after two hours.
• A user opened one up and found two of the three drivers weren’t working (same story as the KZ CRN).

Verdict

Not bad for the price, but I don’t recommend it: there are better and cheaper options, like the Moondrop CHU and KBEAR KB04, or the KZ ZSX and Tripowin x HBB Mele for a little more.

Note: this review is from 2022, so price and availability may have changed.
