Warm-neutral, relaxing set, great cable, build, and accessories. Vocals are a bit soft, not fully extended, could use more air, but overall decent if you want a comfortable listen

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D+
  • Significantly flawed tuning. Noticeable frequency imbalances and unnatural timbre distract from music. Lacks versatility across recordings.

Treble is noticeably dark and lacking extension. Cymbals lack shimmer and high-frequency details are obscured.

Limited dynamic range with poor micro-detail. Subtle volume changes are lost, and transients lack proper attack.

Decent spatial presentation with noticeable width. Some depth perception but height dimension remains underdeveloped.
Gaming D-
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
