Bought for the filters. It's not a bad set to throw in the backpack. Nothing special but also not offensive.

Bad fit (bullet style). Ok for the price but I can't really rec it. Needs a lot of power, which is a non-sense. Great acessories. Stage presentation is good but depth isn't. Bloated tuning.

Strong LCP driver with tight mid bass and clear mids, but upper mids and treble run hot above Harman; best at low volume or with EQ. Excellent value once dialed in. Fast and controlled driver with engaging mid bass, clear mids, and strong extension for the price. Upper mids and treble are too elevated, flattening stage and requiring EQ or low volume to avoid glare.
Youtube Video Summary

CCA Phoenix marks a fresh start under ND Audio with a polished metal shell, normal 2-pin socket, improved accessories, and a budget LCP single dynamic driver. On the graph it rides above the Harman target from the upper mids through treble, which reads bright at higher volume; low-volume listening is more agreeable. The driver quality is the story: fast, controlled, and unusually clean for the price, and with a touch of EQ it shows notably better clarity and composure.

Bass is a tilted profile with less sub-bass and a modest mid-bass lift, giving a tight, bouncy punch that suits pop, EDM, and hip-hop. The leaner shelf reveals the mids with good separation and minimal bloom, while the treble extends strongly but is too energetic in the 3–7 k region, flattening stage at louder levels. Trim the 3–20 k region by about 2 dB and staging gains dimension and imaging snaps into place. As a sub-30 USD set for tinkerers, Phoenix is a standout driver held back by hot tuning out of the box.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C-
  • Uneven emphasis across the spectrum keeps the presentation unsettled and awkward. Acoustic instruments lose their natural body.

Average Technical Grade

D+
  • Resolution is limited, masking finer nuances and narrowing the soundstage. Busy mixes still overwhelm it with ease.
Bass D+
It hints at bass presence but never quite delivers satisfying punch. Percussion lacks a satisfying weight.
Mids C-
It delivers a workable midrange that could benefit from smoother transitions. Timbre isn't quite convincing yet.
Treble D
Treble balance wavers, creating a mix of recessed detail and harsh flashes. Highs feel restless and unfocused.
Dynamics C-
It maintains a steady dynamic profile that neither offends nor inspires. Swells arrive but lack drama.
Soundstage C-
Average soundstage with adequate width but a flat presentation that lacks meaningful layering. Width is acceptable but not exciting.
Details D
Information density overwhelms it quickly, so finer layers fade beneath the surface. Intricate passages blur when pushed.
Imaging D
Depth barely registers, so the stage resembles a shallow arc. Depth cues are barely sketched.
Gaming D+
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • Tonality is generally agreeable, though a few bumps remind you of its limits. Certain tracks spotlight its tonal quirks.

Average Technical Grade

B+
  • It offers a competent showing, maintaining cohesion on straightforward arrangements. Complex passages start to challenge it, but never derail the show.
Bass B+
The bass brings healthy impact, complementing mixes without overpowering them. It keeps up with faster passages cleanly.
Mids B-
It presents a stable midrange foundation suitable for everyday listening. Clarity is serviceable without standing out.
Treble B-
Treble feels agreeable overall, bringing sparkle without significant fatigue. You get a polite sense of air.
Dynamics C+
You get reliable macrodynamics, with micro shifts that remain only adequate. A reliable performer for most tracks.
Soundstage B
The presentation supplies a believable venue outline where each instrument owns its pocket of space. The stage opens up nicely for live cuts.
Details B+
Recordings feel well sorted, with supporting details snapping to attention. Small articulations remain intact.
Imaging B
Instrument boundaries feel well carved, avoiding smear or drift. Instrument outlines feel well-defined.
Gaming B-
Moderate spatial presentation conveys general directionality. Suitable for casual play where precision isn't critical.
