Evokes a qdc-ish house sound, though stumbles in both tuning refinement and technicalities. Crin Youtube Channel
5.5
Reviewer Score
Good tonal balance and technicalities. Just lacking a few legs of refinement. Precogvision Youtube Channel

Reviewer Score
Best Treble around it's price. Super airy but still smooth. Bass-scoop isn't as bad as I thought, but those who want mid-bass - avoid it. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
8.1
Reviewer Score
Limited to 50 units. A huge improvement fit wise versus the original. Great TOTL all-rounder. Great sub, upper mids and treble. Mid-bass is an improvement but still not boosted. Great technical chops while fixing the sense of plasticness the original had.
7.4

See Helios but with more mid-treble and mid-bass. Precogvision Youtube Channel
