Sub-bass boost, odd midrange and rolled-off treble. Not for everyone.

Some of the wackiest tonal balance that I've heard. Decent detailing, though.

A very pleasing Colorization, but not exactly what I love.
Youtube Video Summary

Build and accessories are a clear win: a sturdy, comfortable, slightly translucent shell with MMCX connectors, a plush 8-wire cable terminating in 4.4 mm, and a premium magnetic case. As a 10-BA set around $1,000, it wears a tasteful black-and-silver faceplate and seals well without pressure issues. There’s a bass switch that nudges mid-bass upward; useful for taste, but not essential.

Sonically it’s a warm-tilted, cohesive presentation: male vocals come through full and rich, female vocals can sound a touch husky, and the mids avoid shout. Treble is clean and pleasant with a bit of 5–6 kHz energy that stays in check; overall clarity is good, though there’s slight hiss and the mid-bass can feel a little loose/flabby rather than tight. Stage and detail are solid, making this arguably one of FiiO’s better efforts, but the value is mixed—graded a strong A4 / S-: recommended if it suits the tonality, yet tough at retail amid fierce competitors; far more compelling on the used market or after a thorough demo.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D-
  • It feels tonally jarring, swinging between piercing treble and bloated bass with no cohesion. It feels chaotic regardless of genre.

Average Technical Grade

C
  • Even moderate complexity exposes the limited resolution and narrow sense of space. Technical fans will find it lacking.
Bass E+
Bass lines feel skeletal, robbing tracks of their intended foundation. Genres relying on sub-bass struggle.
Mids E+
The mids come across papery and weak, draining warmth from the mix. Acoustic tracks sound brittle and distant.
Treble E+
Highs sound subdued and short on sparkle, hiding fine detail. Metallic instruments lose their bite.
Dynamics C-
It maintains a steady dynamic profile that neither offends nor inspires. Swells arrive but lack drama.
Details C+
Ambient cues appear, albeit with softer focus than die-hard resolution seekers may prefer. You can follow supporting instruments well.
Imaging C+
Decent positional accuracy provides good left/right placement with an acceptable center image. Instruments stay anchored once placed.
Gaming C-
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical. Bad value-to-cost for gaming purpose - not recommended
