E- Expect a discordant presentation where frequency clashes ruin any chance of relaxed listening. It struggles to render a cohesive musical picture.
Average Technical Grade
C-- Resolution is limited, masking finer nuances and narrowing the soundstage. Busy mixes still overwhelm it with ease.

Average Tunign Grade
B+- The tuning leans easygoing, yet occasional unevenness nudges it away from greatness. A bit of EQ polish can smooth things nicely.
Average Technical Grade
B- An honest, middle-of-the-road performance preserves structure without chasing micro-detail. It's respectable for everyday listening sessions.
