Myer Audio CKLVX D41 reviewed by Audionotions

Audionotions 7 Reviewer Score
Warm and bright. Thick bass that is sufficiently tactile for the price. Decent mids. Treble elevation is a bit above neutral so cymbals and snaps and clicks can sound a bit prominent. Soundstage and imaging are very good for the price range. For the price, I'd be hardpressed to find anything that performs this well unless you know you're treble sensitive.
