Average Technical & Tuning Grades
Average Tunign Grade
D-- Tonally jarring or fatiguing. Frequency clashes (e.g., piercing treble, bloated bass) make extended listening unpleasant. Poor genre adaptation.
Average Technical Grade
A+- Very competent with articulate presentation. Well-defined layers and precise imaging. Soundstage is immersive and handles dynamics well. Minor smearing in very busy tracks.

The usual "open-backed planar IEM" sound of "wonk". Crin Youtube Channel

Reviewer Score
Clean, balanced, with slight air boost in the treble. Bass sounds like a DD with great texture. Cheaper better tuned P5+2. Not as smooth as Timeless 2 with more dynamic contrast with a slight sizzle from the treble boost. Good value for a planar. Jays Audio Youtube Channel

6.5
Reviewer Score
Balanced sound with clean bass, smooth mids, and detailed treble. Great clarity, wide soundstage, and natural timbre for a planar. Bass might be a bit light, and treble can be a little forward for some. One of the best planar IEMs out there. The treble is smoother and easier on the ears than most planars.Gizaudio Axel original ranking

Not for bassheads, but one of the best planars I've ever heard. Jaytiss Youtube Channel

A little bit spicy in the treble (like the other planars). Relaxed upper mid-range. Warmer tuning than S12. It's a decent IEMSuper* Review original ranking
