Youtube Video Summary
CCA Phoenix marks a fresh start under ND Audio with a polished metal shell, normal 2-pin socket, improved accessories, and a budget LCP single dynamic driver. On the graph it rides above the Harman target from the upper mids through treble, which reads bright at higher volume; low-volume listening is more agreeable. The driver quality is the story: fast, controlled, and unusually clean for the price, and with a touch of EQ it shows notably better clarity and composure.
Bass is a tilted profile with less sub-bass and a modest mid-bass lift, giving a tight, bouncy punch that suits pop, EDM, and hip-hop. The leaner shelf reveals the mids with good separation and minimal bloom, while the treble extends strongly but is too energetic in the 3–7 k region, flattening stage at louder levels. Trim the 3–20 k region by about 2 dB and staging gains dimension and imaging snaps into place. As a sub-30 USD set for tinkerers, Phoenix is a standout driver held back by hot tuning out of the box.
