Good tonal balance and technicalities, but decay is truncated which results in etched timbre. Dynamics are also dull. Precogvision Youtube Channel

Metalic timbre with fast decay. A little more enphasis around 4.5k than I would like, but overall pleasent tuning. Very technical, just lacking some dynamics and treble refinement.

Clean, balanced, neutral sound with good layering and tech. Relaxing vocals, but lacks power and last bit of vocal extension. Bass has good controll, but lacks impact. Has sizzly planar timbre in the treble. Safe but forgettable. Jays Audio Youtube Channel

A detailed, engaging all-rounder that's exciting without being shouty or harsh. Smooth, neutral tuning with a bass boost, excellent bass quality, clean mids, forward vocals, and sparkly, incisive treble. Great detail. I wouldn’t change a thing.Gizaudio Axel original ranking
