Warm tuning, really easy to listen to Treble isn't really well defined, separation between midrange and lower midrange isn't great either

A little bit thick and poofy in the bass. Aful Explorer is better option.

More uniquely tuned than other planars. Tamer uppermids, not as energetic, but still with great bass separation and tech. Timbre is good.
