Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C-
  • Significantly flawed tuning. Noticeable frequency imbalances and unnatural timbre distract from music. Lacks versatility across recordings.

Average Technical Grade

C
  • Limited resolution; finer nuances are masked. Soundstage feels narrow, and complex passages cause muddiness. Transitions lack finesse.
Bass C
Subdued bass response that stays mostly in the background. Lacks energy and impact but maintains basic definition.
Mids C-
Midrange is passable but unrefined. Lacks detail and smoothness, with occasional harshness in upper mids.
Treble D
Uneven treble response with noticeable peaks and dips. Can sound both dull and occasionally harsh simultaneously.
Soundstage B-
Decent spatial presentation with noticeable width. Some depth perception but height dimension remains underdeveloped.
Details B
Good resolution with clear articulation of nuances. Reveals recording nuances and maintains clarity in complex passages.
Imaging B-
Decent positional accuracy. Good left/right placement with acceptable center image, though depth positioning is approximate.
Gaming C
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.

Comment: Screams for EQ, screams for desktop amps/dedicated daps. Unacceptable tuning, extremely power hungry

One of the rare few IEM-style planars with proper tonal balance without EQ, but lacking detail retrieval.

Just get Odyssey it's better. Dreamy/airy treble presentation with genres like indie, slow-rock, ballads, singer-songwriter. Immersive/forward vocals that scales nicely. Bass is ok, a little boomy. 10K can be jarring with energetic genres like kpop/jpop/edm.
