Terrible fit and needs an adaptor if you wanna replace its cable. Great driver tho. Needs EQ to shine or tape vent mod it for a basshead tuning. Great stage and bass texture.

Lively V-shape with a bit of lower-treble presence, plus good imaging and a decent sense of space. Forward but not sharp; engaging and easy to listen to.
