Endgame "balanced-basshead" set. Amazing low-end texutre, rumble, reverb, slam, and more bass than Origin and Titan - goes harder than those. Vocals and treble also still well extended, not congested, or cramped staging. Good balance while giving amazing fun bass. Recommend Azla Sedna light blue tips for more air, or Divinus Velvets. EQ down -3dbs at 250hz, low-shelf, 0.5 Q, and you'll get the Endgame IE target (my all-rounder target).

Variation's more fun, twin sibling. Similar technical capabilities to Vari - resolution, instrument separation and imaging are great. Thicker, meatier note weight than Variations and better vocal quality. Less shouty than Vari but also has a better treble extension. The Bass shelf is Harman-ish but with a delayed slope compared to the Variations, which not only helps with male vocals, kick drums, and bass guitars but also adds a lushness to the sound that the Vari was lacking. This sounds more alive than Variations! The one thing that is holding this set back is the slightly pillowy bass. Bass lacks a bit in tactility and punch. Previously Owned

What the Variations should've been. Fantastic tehcnincalities. Neutral-bright leaning. Nothing wrong with it at mid-volume, but I can see treble can be too much at highet volumes.

Best Mangird has ever done - a slightly more fun Variations. Very clean and technical with a boomier bass. Lower mid-range is still somewhat dry.
