For me this has some oddities. It would be higher if those weren't there.

Bass can be a little bit on the distracting side if you are looking for a neutral sound signature. Contrasty meta-tuning.

Clean balanced tuning done right. A better tuned MEGA5EST & MOONDROP Meteor with fuller low-end, and more treble extension, same tech, but more dynamic - also half the price. A Mega5EST with better vocals and dynamics but less smooth and airy. Low-end will be weak to some people and on certain tracks. Not the most unique sound since it's clean/neutral/balanced.

Fun. Unique tuning that actually works. The FR looks like it would completely offend but to the ear, it actually never offends. Lots of bass impact, good transients. Worth it just to have something different. Previously Owned

Funky and agressive tuning that turns into a detail and dynamics machine for its price - could shine with minor adjustments.

The Kinera Celest Phoenixcall offers a distinctive tribrid driver configuration (1DD+2BA+2 Micro Planar) that delivers an energetic, V-shaped sound signature with pronounced mid-bass impact and bright upper-mids. Bass is punchy and textured, though sub-bass extension rolls off slightly, while vocals and instruments can occasionally tip into shoutiness or sibilance in busy tracks . Technical performance is a mixed bag: imaging and separation are precise, but timbre often feels unnatural with metallic tinges, and the soundstage leans taller than wider .

Comfort and aesthetics are clear strengths. The transparent resin shells showcase internal components artistically, and the included 8-core SPC cable feels premium . However, the thick nozzles may challenge smaller ears, and the provided eartips often exacerbate upper-frequency harshness—tip-rolling is recommended . While the unboxing experience impresses with its themed accessories (including a metal bookmark), the carrying case is notably cramped .
