Well-tuned if technically lacking in comparison. Could use some more power in the bass.

Bass can be a little bit on the distracting side if you are looking for a neutral sound signature. Contrasty meta-tuning.

Clean balanced tuning done right. A better tuned MEGA5EST & MOONDROP Meteor with fuller low-end, and more treble extension, same tech, but more dynamic - also half the price. A Mega5EST with better vocals and dynamics but less smooth and airy. Low-end will be weak to some people and on certain tracks. Not the most unique sound since it's clean/neutral/balanced.
