Product Information

Linsoul have made no specific requests or comments and, as always, I will do my best to be as unbiased and sincere as humanly possible. The warmth and darkness is transferred to the midrange and is coupled with a somewhat diffuse feeling in the sound. Moving on to the mid range, I find that acoustic guitars and other similar instruments have a nice timbre to them, seeming very realistic with just a hint of extra warmth.

The WGZBLON x HBB Z300 comes in a small white box, size 103x75x34mm, whose main side is decorated with a dragon drawn in blue. I have no idea if they are gold-plated or not but they are certainly very gold, at least the model I received. Even though the imaging could be sharper, I still think it is better than the Piccolo and the Khan and can bring clarity to the mix. In terms of sound, the C3s are subtly more sensitive, a higher volume is achieved with the same energy. Founded in 2014, its catalogue includes the BL-03, a model that it has not yet been able to surpass.

On instruments, Z300's also affects the tonal quality of instruments especially on strings like violins and guitars as they sound a bit too warm, buttery, austere and soft in my liking. Yes, there have been certain tracks/albums where I found them to be a little too warm and even too bassy on occasions, but those have been limited to certain things and not the majority (like with some of the other HBB collabs). A highly recommended for treble-sensitive blokes out there as there will not a hint of harshness nor sibilance.

Even when I put them on originally, my intention was to use them for the day and then take them home and throw them on the burn in rig until it was their turn.The C2 and the Khan are either perceived as being more airy and lean or as being overly spirited or forward. It reminded me exactly of the BL03 in this aspect, and I recommend that fans of Capiroto's music stay away from this headphone.
