What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 80/100
The Klean SV is described as a safe, solid all-rounder that works well across a wide range of music. Its cleaner low end is paired with more forward upper mids and a warmer, rolled-off top end, making it engaging for vocal-led music but less even-handed for listeners seeking a neutral balance.
Bass
84/100
The reviewer describes the SV as less coloured and cleaner through the bottom end than its predecessor. Its interchangeable nozzles also offer some scope to tailor the presentation, though there is little detailed comment on extension, slam, or texture.
Midrange
80/100
Forward upper mids help female vocals and instruments stand out clearly. The reviewer also finds this emphasis less balanced than preferred, so presence comes with a degree of tonal coloration.
Treble
77/100
The upper-mid and treble presentation is said to roll off, giving the earphone a warmer overall top end. This should suit listeners who prefer restrained highs, but it may offer less air and sparkle than brighter alternatives.
Resolution Separation
80/100
The reviewer calls the Klean SV a solid all-rounder for varied music, which supports a competent and usable level of clarity. There is little direct discussion of microdetail, layering, or performance in especially dense recordings.
Soundstage Imaging
78/100
The broad all-rounder assessment suggests no major spatial shortcoming in normal listening. However, the review provides little direct evidence about stage dimensions, image placement, or depth.
Dynamics Coherence
80/100
The cleaner, less coloured tuning and suitability for many genres suggest a generally coherent presentation. The review does not closely assess transient attack, dynamic contrast, or rhythmic drive.
FIT COMFORT ISOLATION PERFORMANCE 85/100
The shell is reported to be comfortable, with a shape that makes the recommended deep insertion easy to achieve. This is encouraging for consistent bass and tonal balance, although the review does not directly assess passive noise reduction.
Seal Stability
88/100
The reviewer recommends inserting the earphones as deeply as possible and says the shell shape makes this easy. That points to a secure, repeatable seal rather than a fit that requires persistent adjustment.
Comfort
88/100
Comfort is directly described as a positive aspect of the shells. The review does not identify pressure points, awkward nozzle fit, or fatigue during use.
Isolation
75/100
The review does not provide a direct assessment of passive isolation in noisy environments. Deep insertion may help in practice, but the available comments do not establish how much outside sound is attenuated.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Accessories
86/100
The supplied two-core cable receives clear praise for its soft, tangle-free handling and tidy finish, with no complaints from the reviewer. The interchangeable nozzles add useful tuning flexibility, though the review says little about long-term shell durability, connectors, case, or tip selection.
Value for Money
94/100
At around $52, the reviewer explicitly considers the Klean SV excellent value, as with the original model. Its broad genre compatibility, comfortable shell, cleaner bass tuning, and good cable make it a particularly compelling budget-minded option despite the warmer, less extended upper range.
