Warm-neutral, relaxing set, great cable, build, and accessories. Vocals are a bit soft, not fully extended, could use more air, but overall decent if you want a comfortable listen

B+ Tech
A slightly more vocal centric Aria 2, slightly less soft in the overall texture due to less air. Balanced-clean all-rounder. A bit pricy at $100, wait for sale.
