Very warm. Mid-bass enphasys that bleed into mids. Treble is well done and on the darker side. Doesn't feel technical. EQ helps.

Kiwi Ears Dolce Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

B-
  • A mostly enjoyable signature keeps things listenable despite a handful of quirks. It handles most playlists without major complaints.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Resolution is limited, masking finer nuances and narrowing the soundstage. Busy mixes still overwhelm it with ease.
Mids C+
Expect a competent midrange that keeps vocals grounded and instruments clear. Tone is acceptable across multiple genres.
Treble D
Treble response is uneven, jumping between dull spots and sharp peaks. Peaks poke out unpredictably.
Dynamics C-
It maintains a steady dynamic profile that neither offends nor inspires. Swells arrive but lack drama.
Soundstage C+
The image breathes a little, spacing instruments laterally while sketching a light sense of distance. Separation improves with cleaner recordings.
Gaming C
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.

Tin Hifi T1S Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

E-
  • Balance is severely off, producing a harsh, unpleasant listen regardless of genre. Long sessions quickly become exhausting.

Average Technical Grade

E-
  • A foggy, one-dimensional presentation wipes out layering and obscures the finer points of a mix. Spatial cues barely register at all.
Bass E-
The response is anaemic, with bass lines fading into the background. There's minimal vibration or physicality.
Mids E-
Midrange sits extremely recessed, burying vocals under a muddy veil. Lead vocals hide far behind the mix.
Treble E-
The top end feels muffled, with air and shimmer barely audible. Ambient reverb tails are chopped short.
Details E-
Extremely poor resolution causes fine details to vanish, leaving only a vague impression of the music's structure. Everything sounds blurred and undefined.
Imaging E-
The image struggles to differentiate directions, so instruments smear together. Spatial clarity is almost nonexistent.
Gaming E-
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
