Final ZE8000 MK2

The ZE8000 MK2 is an audiophile TWS, and the first thing you probably noticed is that it is somewhat larger than its little brother Final Audio ZE3000 and other TWS in-ear earphones. The design is by no means just a fancy idea, but actually created so that the ZE8000 MK2 can house the amount of electronics that are inside them. Instead of using a class-D amplifier solution, Final Audio has chosen to go with a class-A/B, which excels at lower distortion and a generally more authentic and musical sound. The advantage of moving most of the electronics to the stem on the outside is also that the part that sits in the outer ear can be made significantly smaller and thus easier to get it to sit properly. Final Audio has also developed some completely new earplugs, Type Q, which cover the entire part that sits in the ear with a soft silicone.

ZE8000 MK2 has 8K SOUND technology for optimal sound quality
With the ZE8000 MK2, Final Audio also introduces their new 8K SOUND technology which, much like 8K video, is higher quality than what we've been used to from TWS earphones. In short, the technology consists in, in addition to fine-tuning certain frequency ranges, also adjusting the time element in each and every transmitted bit of sound, via digital sound processing. It sounds technical and it is, but the main point is that it works. The result is sound with plenty of definition, detail and speed. Of course, it is not only digital signal processing that you can thank for the high sound quality. Final Audio has also developed a brand new, 13mm large f-CORE for 8K SOUND unit with ultra-low distortion, thanks to an aluminium/magnesium diaphragm which is injection molded on a silicone suspension.

Knowles microphones with Beamforming for calls and noise reduction
This excellent TWS earphone from Final Audio is equipped with active noise reduction, developed specifically for this model. Much work has been done with the algorithm which calculates how much and how noise must be reduced without affecting the sound quality, which is a real problem with that technology. In addition, Final Audio has also chosen to equip the ZE8000 MK2 with high-quality Knowles MEMS microphones. The earphone can switch between 4 different settings with ANC, Ambient Sound Mode, Voice Through Mode and Wind-Cut Mode. The microphones with Beamforming also make it possible to answer calls when the ZE8000 MK2 is used with a Smartphone.

The holy trinity of Bluetooth, including Snapdragon Sound
In addition to standard Bluetooth (SBC), Final Audio ZE8000 MK2 also supports both AAC, which is perfect for iPhone users, as well as aptX and aptX Adaptive, which are found in the vast majority of Android phones and computers. If you have an Android smartphone with Snapdragon Sound technology, e.g. Sony Xperia 1 IV, Motorola Edge 30 Fusion or Xiaomi 13 Pro, you can get even higher sound quality.

ZE8000 MK2 comes with charging case, 5 sets of Type Q earbuds, USB-C cable for charging. Battery life is up to 5 hours per charging. A full charge of the case takes 2 hours, and the earphones can be fully charged in 1.5 hours. 5 minutes of charging can provide up to 45 minutes of music.
