Highly resolving planar with great acessories package. Straight up better version of the TinHiFI Dudu. Still too much treble with a fatiguing, piercing tonality.

Relaxed upper mid-range. Vocals sound a little bit more forward than instruments. Smooth treble performance.

Perfect for rock and metal. Smooth, relaxing tuning, great bass with good slam, rich mid-range, safe treble. Upper mids may be too relaxed for some, treble is a bit dark.

High volume set, very immersive, scales great with no sharpness, wide staging, enough detail/extension, good bass, just crank it up and enjoy the music.
