Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C
  • It struggles with balance, producing a lumpy response that rarely sounds coherent. Genre hopping highlights glaring inconsistencies.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Resolution is limited, masking finer nuances and narrowing the soundstage. Busy mixes still overwhelm it with ease.
Bass C-
Low-end presence is gentle and restrained, favoring balance over slam. There's enough presence for casual listening.
Mids C-
Midrange is passable yet unrefined, revealing grain and occasional harshness. It sounds a bit grainy on detailed recordings.
Treble C-
The top end sounds acceptable but lacks the smoothness of higher tiers. Air is hinted at more than delivered.
Dynamics C-
The system delivers passable punch but never surprises. Punch is modest rather than exciting.
Details C-
The presentation is fine for casual listening but leaves refinement on the table. There's some grain on quieter elements.
Imaging C-
Average imaging delivers reasonable localization while still lacking pinpoint specificity. You get a reasonable idea of placement.
Gaming C-
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.

Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
