Precision-Tuned 2DD+5BA Hybrid IEM
The ZiiGaat Arcanis is a 2DD+5BA Hybrid Configuration in-ear monitor engineered to deliver the most accurate balanced tonal signature and a professional caliber of technical performance.
Dual Isobaric Subwoofers
The Arcanis utilizes dual 10mm dynamic drivers to deliver true subwoofer-like bass. The two drivers are arranged in an isobaric configuration to maximize output and efficiency while reducing distortion. With a powerful 9dB output at 20Hz, the 2DD system delivers excellent rumble and texture in the lows while remaining clean and focused.
5 Balanced Armature Drivers
The midrange and treble of the Arcanis are powered by 5 genuine American-made Knowles balanced armature drivers. Two Knowles 32873 drivers are arranged to deliver focused low-mid range integration between the dynamic drivers and the rest of the frequency spectrum. Two full-ranged Knowles 29689 drivers are used to drive the mid-treble range, while a single high-efficiency Knowles 33518 tweeter provides crystal clear upper treble details. By utilizing multiple balanced armature drivers targeting specific frequency bandwidths, the Arcanis is able to increase output at lower distortion thresholds, thereby improving the audio resolution.

The details, in full view.
Precision Tuning for Audiophiles
The Arcanis has been engineered with a 4-way passive crossover network to specify each driver group to their respective frequencies. The result is a professional tonal balance with an independent subwoofer response that cuts pristinely at 250Hz, a completely flat midrange that is free from any bloat or coloring, and an exceptionally natural treble curvature. The Arcanis is perfect for professional musicians and engineers, as well as audiophiles who want the most accurate audio playback.
Hand Assembled Quality
Each Arcanis unit is constructed from 3D printed medical-grade resin. The faceplates are individually hand painted and paired before assembly. Each unit is hand assembled, paired, and undergoes an individual QC process to check the sound, craftsmanship, and packaging.

Customer reviews
What listeners say about sound, fit and everyday use.
Customers praised the IEMs for exceptional sound quality with "well balanced and detailed" performance, accurate reproduction, and "high level of imaging, stage, and layering." However, fit issues were noted - they're heavy, don't stay in ears well, and the cable tangles easily. One customer said it's "worth its price" for audiophiles.
The Ziigaat Arcanis is nicely done IEM. Well balanced and detailed. Bass has nice depth but is not overpowering and mids are neutral and clear. Treble is smooth and well extended but has good air and details.
Best IEM i tried in a while
The ZiiGaat Arcanis is a neutral set with fun midrange energy, where you get forward and energetic vocals. There is no hint of warmth to be found, the balance is very good here. The bass and the treble are very tamed, and not taking a lot of attention from you, but rather trying to stay safe, natural and neutral. The effort ZiiGaat put in the tuning of the Arcanis is well appreciated, and not finding the usual 8Khz peak is unique and well handled. The technical performance of the Arcanis is very good, you get high level of imaging, stage, and layering, that leads to also high resolution, and it is a strong point of the Arcanis. Is it worth 400$? Well, from the packaging alone, I would love to see a better cable, and a greater variety of ear tips. But ok, maybe they had to cut off some corners and focus on providing good sound quality (which they did). But except the accessories, you get 10 branded BA drivers (5 each side), Knowles drivers have their price and quality, and isobaric 2DD system (which the cheapest IEM with it that I know starts from 300$). You get here high level of technical performance, and neutral tuning with fun energy. I will leave you to decide whether it worth it or not. As much as I try to put it into words, the experience of listening to the Arcanis is something that needs to be heard to be fully appreciated. There’s a level of refinement and naturality here that words just don’t do justice to.

The sound quality is what you would expect. It's a fairly decent all rounder for pretty much any music. It doesn't excel specifically for any particular genre but that also means it's fairly decent for everything. Even zoom calls!
However, they don't stay in your ear and are quite heavy. The cord tangles like no other and the irritation from having it wrapped around your ear leaves red marks on top of your ear. The material holding it onto your lobe is fairly slick despite it being sticky plastic which doesn't feel like it'll last long term (more for the cable that comes with it than the actual IEMs). And the IEMs themselves are so incredibly weighted towards the outside that they struggle immensely with staying in your ear.
I've tried hundreds of iems over the past 20 years and continue to share them in my reviews. The Arcanis holds a special place among these iems because its overall quality, sound resolution, and especially its balance are superb. The instrument separation and vocal clarity draw you right into the heart of the music. I truly consider it the definition of music enjoyment. It's one of those rare iems that's worth its price. It has sound reproduction accurate enough to be a studio monitor.
ZiiGaat Arcanis 는 정말 해상도와 질감 처리가 좋고 음악성있는 밸런스가 아주 좋은 iem입니다. 강력 추천합니다!
no 4.4mm cable option = no buy or make an add-on option for a good cable
Thank you for your feedback! Currently, the ZiiGaat Arcanis does not come with a 4.4mm cable option by default. We truly appreciate your suggestion, and we’ll share it with our team for future consideration. In the meantime, you’re welcome to pair it with any aftermarket 0.78mm 2-pin 4.4mm cable if needed. Let us know if you’d like some recommendations!
