A rather interesting "V-but-also-not" signature. Can get a little hot in the treble.

Bloated mid-bass and extremely dark upper-midrange and treble results in hazy, uninspired listen.

Great set for jazz/blues/soul/acoustic. Thick and lush. Warm but with nice treble extension. Solid tech. Vocals can be overly husky and buried in busier songs.
