Bass C+
Average bass performance - present but unremarkable. Has reasonable texture but lacks depth and physicality.

Excellent midrange with natural timbre and great detail retrieval. Vocals are forward and emotive with lifelike instrument reproduction.
Treble C+
Decent treble with acceptable extension and detail. Can sound slightly unrefined but avoids being harsh or sibilant.

Decent dynamic performance. Good macro-contrast but micro-dynamics could be more nuanced. Satisfactory impact.

Good resolution with clear articulation of nuances. Reveals recording nuances and maintains clarity in complex passages.
Imaging C+
Decent positional accuracy. Good left/right placement with acceptable center image, though depth positioning is approximate.

Slight mid-scoop going on. A little shouty, a little bassy, but not bad overall.
