Generation & platform

The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?

Same generation

Both shipped in 2025. These are the same generation of hardware - nothing in the radio, the codecs or the noise cancelling separates them. Nothing separates them on convenience features either, so the choice comes down to tuning and price.

What reviewers said

Ziigaat Horizon

The Ziigaat Horizon is a wired tribrid IEM that delivers impressive technical performance for its price, featuring a spacious, holographic soundstage and strong detail retrieval. Its W-shaped tuning balances clarity and engagement, though its energetic treble and lighter bass impact may not suit everyone. While the sound quality is a standout, the build and accessories feel less premium than the audio performance.

  • Pro:Excellent technical ability and detail retrieval
  • Pro:Large, holographic soundstage with strong imaging
  • Pro:Well-executed W-shaped tuning that balances fun and precision
  • Con:Treble can become fatiguing or slightly sibilant for sensitive listeners
  • Con:Mid-bass punch is limited, with bass more technical than physical
  • Con:Build quality feels somewhat cheap for the price

Ziigaat Lush

The Ziigaat Lush is a wired hybrid IEM with a neutral, reference-style tuning that prioritizes accuracy and balance over excitement. Its smooth, non-fatiguing treble and clean mids make it well-suited for critical listening and studio work, though its restrained character and average accessories may not appeal to those seeking a more dynamic sound.

  • Pro:Neutral, reference-style tuning
  • Pro:Smooth and non-fatiguing treble
  • Pro:Clean mids with good bass-to-midrange integration
  • Con:Restrained sound lacks excitement
  • Con:Accessories feel below par for the price
  • Con:Driver flex reported
