C+- Flawed execution of tonal character. Noticeable peaks/dips affect timbre and coherence. May suit specific genres but lacks refinement.
Average Technical Grade
B- Competent but unremarkable. Decent detail retrieval in quieter tracks, though busy sections challenge cohesion. Imaging is average, lacking depth.

Great technicalities. Lacking that last leg of refinement in terms of coherency. Precogvision Youtube Channel
Symphonium Helios reviewed by: Smirk Audio
Exceptional treble with solid bass. Great techs. Some may find the midrange a bit clinical. Fit will be a dealbreaker to some. Cons: Poor fit.
Symphonium Helios reviewed by: Shuwa-T
Strengths: Clean-sounding monitor with great bass decay. Weaknesses: Occasional splashy cymbals due to the treble extension.
Symphonium Helios reviewed by: Nymz
Top tier clarity and great technicalities, other than a hint of BA timbre plasticness to it. Mid-bass recession is the con in the tuning, turning it into a dry IEM. Top performer nonetheless.
