Foam helps tame uppermids/treble. Amazing detail for price and new benchmark below $100. Better tuned "softer" Dusk with slighlty less accurate imaging. Note-weight can be light. Jays Audio Youtube Channel

Well done, clean midrange focus tuning Can be fatiguing in the treble Tim Tuned Youtube Channel

Unique neutral-bright sound signature, but overall feels a little unengaging. Clean, clear vocals with decent detail. Bass quality and impact, mids can feel lean, and treble can get a bit bright.Gizaudio Axel original ranking

Comment: A mini B2 minus the good stuff. Tuning done well, similar to B2 but less in everything Somewhat crammed soundstage

Like the B2 but a step down in resolution and separation - very well-tuned - could use a tad more bass quantity and tighter bass (it sounds a bit fuzzy and loose - I guess they aren't using a very good DD), and better treble (this problem can be fixed by using wide bore tips). Great value for $79 - no comfort, fit, or QC issues like the B2 but in exchange. Previously Owned

Sounds like a warmer, lo-res Moondrop B2, emphasis on lo-res in the bass. Precogvision Youtube Channel

Perfect for rock and metal. Smooth, relaxing tuning, great bass with good slam, rich mid-range, safe treble. Upper mids may be too relaxed for some, treble is a bit dark.Gizaudio Axel original ranking
