Tangzu nezha overview:
the body of the nezha is on the bigger side but i found no issue in comfort. the outer face plate looks beautiful and classy and the red color is very flashy. Sound wise it offers a smooth and very detailed sound reproduction that I enjoy very much. There is no harshness in the sound even though the upper treble region is very extended.
Sound Analysis:
Bass Section:
1) The bass is strong and punchy, the mid bass is more punchy than the subbass.
2) Subbass extension is good and captures plenty of detail.
3) Midbass provides warmth and fullness to the sound.
4) Bass rumble is present but it can be better.
Mid Section:
1) The mid section is the star attraction of Nezha's sound. It is detailed and very full bodied sounding.
2) Male and female vocals sound lush and full bodied, with nice tone.
3) Mids are more on the forward side but it is not too much.
4) Timbre of vocals is good and realistic, providing a realistic experience overall.
Treble Section:
1) Treble is smoothly extended to upper treble but it is not harsh at all
2) Very resolving treble which adds to overall resolution.
3) Cymbal hits are sharp but not fatiguing so it leads to a comfortable listening experience.
Technicalities:
The soundstage is wide and the layering is very good. Imaging is also spot on. Resolution is high because of the extended upper treble. Details are not forced so it is a relaxing listen. Tone and timbre overall I feel is smooth and neutral.
Verdict:
The Nezha is a high end iem with a high end sound. The included accessories and case are premium quality and the overall sound profile is neutral and smooth.
