{"product_id":"ibasso-klee2-earphones","title":"iBasso KLEE2 Earphones","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe iBasso KLEE2 KiSEKi is a single dynamic driver in-ear monitor from the iBasso Jr. range. A 10mm driver with a lithium-magnesium alloy diaphragm sits in a polished stainless steel shell, tuned with dual Helmholtz resonators. It comes in Blue or Silver, with a silver-plated copper cable and both 3.5mm and 4.4mm balanced plugs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe sound iBasso set out to make\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eiBasso describes the sound it was after like this:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControlled bass, with clearly defined drum hits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural treble extension, with harmonics gently dispersing into the air.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRounded sibilants, and a soundstage that is orderly in both width and depth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVocals brought forward, with instruments in their own space.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA lithium-magnesium alloy diaphragm\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driver’s dome is a lithium-magnesium alloy. iBasso sums up what it brings in four words: light, for fast transients with no sluggishness, so every detail comes through precisely; rigid, to suppress diaphragm break-up and keep distortion low; stable, so it stays consistent; and smooth, for a natural tonal balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 10mm driver uses a dual magnetic circuit with a magnetic flux density of 1.6T and a 0.03mm CCAW (copper-clad aluminium wire) voice coil. iBasso says this gives a crisp, well-articulated sound and an effortless presentation across the whole range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual Helmholtz resonators\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Helmholtz resonator is a tuned air chamber that absorbs energy at a chosen frequency. The KLEE2 has two.

Its nylon outer sheath helps suppress microphonics, the noise a cable makes when it rubs against clothing. It connects to the earpieces with standard 0.78mm 2-pin connectors, so other cables fit too, and the plug end is replaceable: 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced plugs are both included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing eartips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNine pairs of silicone eartips come in the box, in three kinds that iBasso has tuned to sound different:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrey-red\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent separation; full, forward vocals; lively, clean and smooth instruments\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBlue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAn expansive soundstage and crisp treble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBlack-grey\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRich harmony, airy, with excellent treble extension\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDriver\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10mm dual magnetic circuit dynamic driver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDiaphragm\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLithium-magnesium alloy dome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoice coil\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.03mm CCAW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShell\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStainless steel, polished PVD finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20Hz–40kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eImpedance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e112dB at 1kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistortion (THD)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.5% or less\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEarpiece connector\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.78mm 2-pin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePlugs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5mm and 4.4mm, replaceable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12.5g per earpiece, without cable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTry the three kinds of eartip and a few sizes: a good seal gives the full bass, and each kind changes the sound a little.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe 4.4mm plug suits balanced players and dongles; the 3.5mm plug works with any ordinary headphone socket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a small source in the same iBasso Jr. range, see the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/ibasso-jr-macaron-4-4mm-3-5mm-usb-amp-dac\"\u003eiBasso Jr. Macaron\u003c\/a\u003e dongle; for another dynamic driver IEM from iBasso, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/ibasso-3t-154-dynamic-driver-iems\"\u003eiBasso 3T-154\u003c\/a\u003e; and for a step up in source, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/ibasso-dc07-pro-balanced-dongle-dac-and-amp\"\u003eDC07 Pro\u003c\/a\u003e dongle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"iBasso","offers":[{"title":"BLUE","offer_id":63220765884803,"sku":"IBASSOKLEE2-BLUE","price":74.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"SILVER","offer_id":63220765917571,"sku":"IBASSOKLEE2-SILVER","price":74.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/ibasso-klee2-earphones-klee2-blue-front.jpg?v=1793889164","url":"https:\/\/www.advancedmp3players.co.uk\/products\/ibasso-klee2-earphones","provider":"amp3","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
