B-Shanling ME100 Scorings
Average Technical & Tuning Grades
Average Tunign Grade
C-- The tuning lacks refinement, jumping between dull and shouty without settling. Vocals frequently sound off-kilter.
Average Technical Grade
C- Even moderate complexity exposes the limited resolution and narrow sense of space. Technical fans will find it lacking.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades
Average Tunign Grade
B+- The tuning leans easygoing, yet occasional unevenness nudges it away from greatness. A bit of EQ polish can smooth things nicely.
Average Technical Grade
B- An honest, middle-of-the-road performance preserves structure without chasing micro-detail. It's respectable for everyday listening sessions.
