Bright set with lots of treble detail. Airy, splashy, and shimmery with great extension. Isn't sharp or metallic in the timbre, but not 100% "natural" either, comes down to preference. Mid-volume set, good with slower genres, not rec for high energy tracks, can get much at higher volumes. Favors female vocals, male could be a bit light and could use more power, but vocals aren't thin or shrill sounding like the Oracle MK2s. Not gonna float everyone's boat, but it's a unique listen (not the same planar tuning yay) and worth having as a collectors piece.

Mids B
Expect a confident midrange that keeps details audible without harshness. Acoustic arrangements sound engaging.
Treble C+
The top end is tidy and serviceable, adding air without overdoing it. Extension is decent for casual listening.

Fundamental left/right positioning with limited depth perception. Works for non-competitive gaming but lacks precision.
