Just get Odyssey it's better. Dreamy/airy treble presentation with genres like indie, slow-rock, ballads, singer-songwriter. Immersive/forward vocals that scales nicely. Bass is ok, a little boomy. 10K can be jarring with energetic genres like kpop/jpop/edm.

Absolute cacophany of sound; comparable to blown laptop speakers. Razor sharp upper-midrange and thin lower-mids.
