FATfreq x HBB Deuce Scorings

Average Tunign Grade

B+

Generally enjoyable tonal character with some noticeable unevenness. Maintains listenability while showing room for refinement in frequency balance.

Average Technical Grade

B-

Satisfactory technical performance. Handles basic detail retrieval adequately in most tracks. Maintains reasonable cohesion in simpler arrangements.

Bass A-

Strong, well-defined bass with good texture. Delivers satisfying punch and rumble without overwhelming other frequencies.

Mids A-

Excellent midrange with natural timbre and great detail retrieval. Vocals are forward and emotive with lifelike instrument reproduction.

Treble B-

Decent treble with acceptable extension and detail. Can sound slightly unrefined but avoids being harsh or sibilant.

Dynamics B

Good dynamic expression with solid impact. Handles volume contrasts well while maintaining good transient snap.

Soundstage B

Good soundstage with proper width and depth. Instruments have clear positioning with reasonable front/back placement.

Gaming B

Decent spatial awareness for fundamental positioning. Creates satisfying atmosphere in story-driven games while handling basic directional cues.

Nicehck TopGuy Scorings

Average Tunign Grade

D-

Tonally jarring or fatiguing. Frequency clashes (e.g., piercing treble, bloated bass) make extended listening unpleasant. Poor genre adaptation.

Average Technical Grade

Limited resolution; finer nuances are masked. Soundstage feels narrow, and complex passages cause muddiness. Transitions lack finesse.

Bass D

Bass is light and underwhelming. While some faint rumble exists, it lacks punch and authority in any meaningful way.

Mids E+

Midrange is thin and hollow with noticeable gaps. Instruments lack body and vocals sound distant and weak.

Treble D

Uneven treble response with noticeable peaks and dips. Can sound both dull and occasionally harsh simultaneously.

Dynamics D

Noticeably compressed dynamics. Musical expression suffers with weak transients and poor contrast between quiet and loud sections.

Details D

Modest detail presentation with significant loss of texture. Nuances are masked and complex passages become congested.

Imaging D

Modest imaging with basic left/right positioning. Lacks precision for center placement and suffers from positional blurring.

Gaming D-

Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency. Value-to-cost may not be optimal for gaming-focused users.

This is not my usual sound signature which I like. But it's a lot of fun in a unique way. One-trick pony.

Easy reccomendation for somoene looking for a basshead IEM that still retains some resemblence of neutrality through the mids and treble. Loaner

B+ Tech

The defacto basshead rec before the more expensive stuff. Super fun sub-bass, textured, heavy, prolonged decay for more reverb in the bass, well-balanced as well, smooth and scales great. Tech is not its strong point, and DON'T buy from FatFreq directly!!!
