Average Technical Grade
D- Limited resolution; finer nuances are masked. Soundstage feels narrow, and complex passages cause muddiness. Transitions lack finesse.

Comment: Already more than a decade old, it's time to move on. Would rather listen to the default samsung wired earpiece than this. Just no Literally everything apart from the subpar imaging

Sounds like a typical dynamic IEM. Slightly bloated bass and narrow staging. Crin Youtube Channel

Bright set with lots of treble detail. Airy, splashy, and shimmery with great extension. Isn't sharp or metallic in the timbre, but not 100% "natural" either, comes down to preference. Mid-volume set, good with slower genres, not rec for high energy tracks, can get much at higher volumes. Favors female vocals, male could be a bit light and could use more power, but vocals aren't thin or shrill sounding like the Oracle MK2s. Not gonna float everyone's boat, but it's a unique listen (not the same planar tuning yay) and worth having as a collectors piece. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
