A rather typical hybrid tuned to the Harman Target. Nothing special especially for the asking price. Youtube Channel
Average Technical & Tuning Grades
Average Tunign Grade
B-- Generally inoffensive but uninspired. Adequate balance with minor quirks. Enjoyable for casual listening but lacks refinement or emotional pull.
Average Technical Grade
C- Competent but unremarkable. Decent detail retrieval in quieter tracks, though busy sections challenge cohesion. Imaging is average, lacking depth.
