It's not a bad iem, but didn't work for me. It has a lot of driver flex.

Essentially a baby Simgot EM6L with more sub-bass. Bright leaning V-Shaped sound with surprisingly wide soundstage. Full Metal build, nice acessories for the price

Lacks technicalities - mainly regarding detail, separation and dynamics. Stage is intimate. Timbre is funky. Notes are a bit blurry. Tuning is mostly fine. Nothing new at this current market.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

B-
  • A mostly enjoyable signature keeps things listenable despite a handful of quirks. It handles most playlists without major complaints.

Average Technical Grade

C
  • Details smear quickly, leaving the presentation cramped and low on definition. You'll notice smearing on even moderately layered songs.
Mids C+
Expect a competent midrange that keeps vocals grounded and instruments clear. Tone is acceptable across multiple genres.
Treble C-
Highs are present enough yet carry a bit of grain and splash. Busy mixes can still feel a bit splashy.
Dynamics C+
Dynamics feel competent, bringing energy without the finest detail. It carries energy without sounding aggressive.
Soundstage B
A satisfying balance of width and depth yields a stage that feels organized and engaging. Imaging lines up with the intended mix.
Gaming C+
Fundamental left/right positioning with limited depth perception. Works for non-competitive gaming but lacks precision.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D-
  • Balance is severely off, producing a harsh, unpleasant listen regardless of genre. Long sessions quickly become exhausting.

Average Technical Grade

E+
  • Hopelessly smeared and congested, it struggles with basic instrument separation and loses detail even in simple tracks. Even casual listening quickly becomes tiring.
Bass E+
The bass register sounds hollow, with minimal texture or sustain. There's little sustain to bass guitar notes.
Mids D+
Midrange is highly uneven, veering between shouty peaks and hollow dips. Tonality swings between shouty and withdrawn.
Treble E+
Highs sound subdued and short on sparkle, hiding fine detail. Metallic instruments lose their bite.
Dynamics E+
It struggles to convey small volume changes, flattening energetic bursts. Micro-contrast is practically absent.
Soundstage C+
Stage expands beyond the shoulders and finally hints at layers, though vertical cues stay muted. Depth cues begin to emerge.
Details E+
Secondary lines struggle to stand apart because resolution can't parse their subtleties. Textures feel monotone and dull.
Imaging E+
Center focus slips in and out, eroding confidence in where sounds originate. There's no consistent center image.
Gaming E+
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
