Comment: Balanced with bass boost, can come across as slightly V. Clarity and balanced tuning, very strong technical performance with little to no BA timbre Not much airiness, which can create the impression of a not so wide soundstage

Nice BA bass and detail overall, but the upper-midrange is odd and treble sounds sort of dead.

Great bass, holographic stage and top of the shelf dynamics. Probably my favourite rendition of a W-shaped tuning to this date. Treble might be spicy for some, but using Divinus Velvets (stock black) seem to help a lot.
