This represents Final's deep respect for the audio purist.

INTRODUCING THE ZE2000 TRULY WIRELESS EARBUD, AN EVOLUTIONARY UPGRADE TO THE ZE3000

Final is a company that makes high-end audio earphones and headphones. It was established in 2007 and has been the hallmark of precision Japanese engineering with a focus; on finesse and accuracy. Following the same path, Final introduced their flagship true wireless earbud - the ZE3000. Building on the lineage, Final is proud to bring the ZE2000 an evolutionary upgrade to the ZE3000. The ZE2000 & ZE3000 are a result of sound quality design based on the latest research results in acoustic engineering and psychoacoustics. The ZE2000 is a model with different tuning based on the ZE3000, a new standard product of wireless earphones. The ZE2000 is the most finely tuned TWS currently on the market after several prototypes and tuning trials. Based on the ZE3000, the ZE2000 has a different sound quality. While the ZE2000 offers closer-to-your-ear voices and instrument sound than the ZE3000, the ZE3000 has an expansive and natural sound quality that allows you to sense the sounds and resonances behind the music. Compared to the ZE3000, the ZE2000 has a clear contoured sound quality, with the sound of vocals and instruments felt slightly closer to the ears.

ZE2000 IMPRESSES WITH ITS PRECISE ENGINEERING FEATURING AN F-LINK DAMPING SYSTEM

The ZE2000 is equipped with a newly developed "f-LINK damping mechanism" that optimises the pressure in the acoustic space inside the earphone housing and enables an "acoustic" design equivalent to wired earphones without venting to the outside; of the housing. This architecture makes it possible to properly control the low frequencies, which was difficult to achieve with the sound quality design of wireless earphones, and to reproduce vocals that tend to be distant in the balance intended by the artist. In addition, even in low-frequency reproduction like drum kicks and bass lines, combined with the ultra-low distortion of the driver unit, Final has achieved a high quality that allows you to feel the expressions of strength and weakness in the bass. The ZE2000 has an enhanced performance of the driver unit and the acoustic sound quality adjustment using the acoustic space inside the earphone housing. This enables the ZE2000 to achieve satisfactory sound quality without an equaliser.

EXPERIENCE DISTORTION-FREE SOUND WITH F-CORE TECHNOLOGY FOR WIRELESS DESIGN

The "f-core for wireless" uses a special resin for the diaphragm that is both light and hard. The edges around the diaphragm are made of flexible silicone to achieve smooth and low-distortion diaphragm amplitude. By separating the edge and diaphragm, a diaphragm area equivalent to 9mmΦ of the driver unit using a tangential edge has been realised. This design also contributes to the reduction of distortion. In addition, this silicone edge and diaphragm are directly thermocompression bonded, dramatically improving assembly accuracy and minimising variation from driver to driver. In addition, since no adhesive is used for the diaphragm, the weight is reduced, resulting in distortion-free sound. These thorough distortion reduction measures have made it possible to clearly distinguish the details of each note that were difficult to hear. Furthermore, by being able to listen to the process of attenuation of reverberation sound until the end, you can feel the breadth of the sound space of the music.

FEATURES INDUSTRY-LEADING BLUETOOTH 5.2 SUPPORT, INTUITIVE TOUCH CONTROLS AND AN AUTO-PAIRING FUNCTION

ZE2000 is a wireless earbud that gives you the freedom of listening to music without wires while delivering natural audio reproduction. It comes with Bluetooth 5.2, which ensures that the earbuds have a strong connection with the paired device, improving the call quality. These earbuds do all the heavy lifting for you, so all you have to do is pair them with your device and hit play. ZE2000 is compatible with a wide range of iPhone and Android devices and is easy to pair. In addition to the SBC and AAC, it also supports the uninterrupted, high-quality aptX™. Additionally, it supports wireless 48kHz/24bit transmission using Qualcomm® aptX™ Adaptive. The ZE2000 enables touch operation, allowing you to control call and end calls as well as music play/stop, volume up/down, next track/previous track, and volume up/down. The contact point is on the faceplate of the earphones' triangle-shaped surface (the side without the printed brand), and this design prevents incorrect operation when wearing them. The ZE2000 is equipped with an "Auto Pairing" function that connects automatically to the paired device. Additionally, power is immediately shut off when the earbud is placed within the charging case; and the lid is closed.

LISTEN TO MUSIC FOR UP TO 35 HOURS WITH MONAURAL PLAYBACK FUNCTIONALITY

You don’t want to be stranded without music when you need it most, so ZE2000 packs 35 hours of wireless playtime to keep you moving. The earbuds hold 7 hours, and the portable charging case carries five additional charges, so you can slip the earbuds into the case for extra juice when needed. You can charge the case with a USB-C cable. The ZE2000 takes 1.5 hours for the earbud and 2 hours to recharge the case. The battery capacity of the earbud is 35mAh, and the case holds 300mAh. The ZE2000 supports Single Ear Mode stereo playback. The music will seamlessly convert to Single Ear Mode when one earbud is put back in the case. Monaural playback is a method in which the left and right audio signals are combined and played from one earbud. In Single Ear Mode, stereo playback is switched to monaural playback so you can enjoy music with one ear without discomfort. This functionality is useful when you want to enjoy music without shutting out external sounds, such as listening to music with one ear.

EXPERTLY DESIGNED WITH AN ORIGAMI-INSPIRED DESIGN AND AN IPX4 WATER-RESISTANCE RATING

The ZE2000 achieves a superior fit based on the housing design, which is the optimum solution for in-ear fitting established with their conventional wired earphones. The earbuds' body and charging case are lightweight resin housings. According to the illustration below, the first point is at the concha's cavity (Pink), the second point is at the ear tip (Green), and the third point is at the tragus (Blue). Therefore, it fits every ear. With the functionality of portable use, there is a need for IPX ratings to preserve your earbuds from dust and water splashes. The IPX4 Water Resistance rating makes ZE2000 suitable for sports and active lifestyles. Rapidly changing weather conditions will not stop you from enjoying your favourite music or other entertainment content.

BUNDLED WITH A WIDE ARRAY OF EAR TIPS FOR ULTIMATE WEARING COMFORT AND A CHARGING CASE

Five sizes of Final newly designed TYPE E Truly Wireless Exclusive Edition ear tips are included as accessories. There is no sense of a foreign object because these ear tips fit gently into the opening of the ear canal. Final has attained the "Supreme Highest Sensation of Fit" by reducing the fit's actual physical sensation. Moreover, because the core colour of adjacent sizes is different (ZE2000 Black: alternating between dark grey and light grey, ZE2000 Ash Gray: alternating between clear and white), it has become easy to distinguish between sizes. There are five sizes provided SS/S/M/L/LL. In addition, since these earbuds are often attached slightly shallowly at the entrance of the ear canal, the L-size ear tips are installed by default. A charging case is perfectly shaped; for daily comfort. Final is very particular about the design that fits comfortably in the hand when gripped, which is obtained by repeated prototyping and genuine human evaluation and can be opened and closed with one hand in addition to being thin and compact.
