Pretty standard V-shaped tuning though surprisingly proficient in technicalities.

Generic Fiio tuning with metallic timbre issues to boot in the treble and upper-midrange.

Too V-shaped for me. Treble too hot and mids are very recessed. Great bass impact and stage size.

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+- Satisfactory technical performance. Handles basic detail retrieval adequately in most tracks. Maintains reasonable cohesion in simpler arrangements.
Bass
C+
Average bass performance - present but unremarkable. Has reasonable texture but lacks depth and physicality.
Mids
D+
Midrange is significantly uneven with coloration. Some frequencies are boosted while others are missing, creating an unnatural tone.
Treble
D+
Uneven treble response with noticeable peaks and dips. Can sound both dull and occasionally harsh simultaneously.
Dynamics
C+
Decent dynamic performance. Good macro-contrast but micro-dynamics could be more nuanced. Satisfactory impact.
Details
C
Average resolution - reveals basic elements but misses subtleties. Satisfactory for casual listening but lacks refinement.
Imaging
C+
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. Value-to-cost may not be optimal for gaming-focused users.
