What People Say
We believe that trust is born from experience. Here you’ll find the words of people who truly listened to music with our cables. Independent reviewers and enthusiasts share their honest impressions of Zikman’s quality, design, and philosophy
Zikman took a unique approach to channel markings: a beveled ring on the right-side connector lets you identify it by touch alone — no need to squint for R or L.
When a handmade item matches or even exceeds the quality of a mass-produced item — it will have its appeal.
This is a very fine, well-done cable that feels like it has that kind of European engineering where I feel like they’ve spent a lot of time making a good product.
These earhooks are super comfortable — you don’t even feel them on your ears.
The Rhine does have a clear sonic character—and it’s one that I’ve come to really appreciate.
The Y-splitter is a piece of art — fully metallic, with the Zikman logo in the center. It gives the cable a premium weight and an artistic touch.
You can feel it: the Tiber is an extremely flexible, high-quality cable.
The connectors have a tactile bump on the right side — easy to find even in low light. Smart design.
This is by far the nicest IEM cable I’ve held in my hands. It’s the best well-controlled.
Soundstage is expansive with the cable. In many instances it did increase the sheer size, laterally and depth-wise.
The company aims to revive classic European audio values while embracing modern design and technology.
It just stays there, and you know exactly which one is right and left. It’s crazy good.
This is a 7N OCC cable — the highest purity pure copper that you’ll find in any audiophile cable.
Sharper imaging, more clarity up top, better separation in the stage — not a different sound, just a different perspective.
Zikman is a much smaller brand in comparison to big brands, but they match the quality. This is legit quality.
“It was almost like wiping a window to the upper stage — it just became more present in a way that wasn’t as present on the stock cable.”
The sound felt slightly more polished, a bit brighter, which fits what they claim — and that’s exactly what I like.
