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.

Fast and clean bass but still rumbly and punchy. Beryllium DD baby. Well-seperated mids, and vocals still pop and aren't buried like other bass sets. Can use more treble extension (fixed with AZLA sedna tips).

The party starter. Very very warm, but fun. Different from anything else. Treble and mids somewhat ok even after all the warmth. Mid-bass is very good.
