Well-tuned with natural timbre, ultimately marred by subpar detail retrieval and definition.

S- Tuning
A+ Tech
Replaced by Astral. A more engaging Supernova, cleaner, with better sub-bass, and vocals. Very big stage and fantastic separation and layering. Vocals are airy without being too sharp. Lots of air/reminds me of the LTD. Mid-bass scoop can affect some libraries like HIPHOP and EDM, but perfect for indie/ballads/acoustics/intrumentals and slower songs.
