Comment: Feels like the HZSound HM but not done that well. Bass-anemic low end, note weight is too light in the lower mids

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D+
  • It struggles with balance, producing a lumpy response that rarely sounds coherent. Genre hopping highlights glaring inconsistencies.

Average Technical Grade

D+
  • The tuning renders a cramped window into the music, with nuance fading fast. Expect grainy textures to creep in.
Bass D+
It hints at bass presence but never quite delivers satisfying punch. Percussion lacks a satisfying weight.
Mids C
The mids sound serviceable but rough around the edges, needing polish. Occasional glare can creep into upper mids.
Treble C-
Treble is adequate overall, though its texture can feel coarse. Longer sessions may expose grain.
Soundstage C
The mix opens sideways while remaining vertically compressed and front-to-back shallow. You'll notice crowding on busy tracks.
Details C-
The presentation is fine for casual listening but leaves refinement on the table. There's some grain on quieter elements.
Imaging D+
It sketches positions loosely while allowing outlines to blur. Instrument outlines remain fuzzy.
Gaming D+
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
