Sounds best with the BA switch off. Somewhat thin, mid-treble oriented sound.

Comment: Didn't buy since harmonics for cymbals too prominent. Inoffensive tuning, one of the more balanced sounding planars Soundstage and imaging are decent at best

Mid-treble heavy. Extention is great and bass has tactility to it. The BA switch is a joke - Don't use it.

This is not my usual sound signature which I like. But it's a lot of fun in a unique way. One-trick pony.

The defacto basshead rec before the more expensive stuff. Super fun sub-bass, textured, heavy, prolonged decay for more reverb in the bass, well-balanced as well, smooth and scales great. Tech is not its strong point, and DON'T buy from FatFreq directly!!!
