A less shouty interpretation of Harman with the same controlled yet impactful bass response. Crin Youtube Channel
Very well-tuned frow lows to highs. Harman-ish but deviates from Harman in a good way. Very good textured bass, clear mids, and airy treble. It differs from Harman in the slightly toned-down upper mids, which is a good thing in my book. Technically quite capable - I was surprised that it outperformed other IEMs in the price bracket, like the Kato, quite readily regarding imaging, stage, separation, transients, and dynamics.

Very well tuned with slight v-shape. Bass is detailed with good texture and treble has good extension. Soundstage is average and lacks width; less open and expansive than AirPods Pro 2s. Imaging and separation is also good but slightly behind the AP2. Vocals and treble are more forward with more bite vs AP2. More exciting vs the AP2 that's more balanced and laid back. Detail and clarity are similar vs AP2, but treble and bass is more emphasized and takes more of one's focus. Jays Audio Youtube Channel

Relaxed upper mid-range. Vocals sound a little bit more forward than instruments. Smooth treble performance.Super* Review original ranking

Perfect for rock and metal. Smooth, relaxing tuning, great bass with good slam, rich mid-range, safe treble. Upper mids may be too relaxed for some, treble is a bit dark.Gizaudio Axel original ranking

High volume set, very immersive, scales great with no sharpness, wide staging, enough detail/extension, good bass, just crank it up and enjoy the music. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
