Bass B+
The bass brings healthy impact, complementing mixes without overpowering them. It keeps up with faster passages cleanly.
Mids B-
It presents a stable midrange foundation suitable for everyday listening. Clarity is serviceable without standing out.
Treble B-
Highs come through with reasonable clarity while staying mostly smooth. Sibilance is mostly controlled.
Soundstage B+
You can map the ensemble with confidence thanks to solid spacing and coherent depth layering. Ambient effects feel believable.
Details A-
Resolution feels both high and relaxed, capturing nuance with ease. There's zero smearing even at high volume.
Imaging B+
Good imaging with precise instrument placement and clear front/back localization. Positions snap into place convincingly.
Gaming B-
Moderate spatial presentation conveys general directionality. Suitable for casual play where precision isn't critical. Bad value-to-cost for gaming purpose - not recommended
