Good treble response - clear and detailed without fatigue. Well-extended with proper air and sparkle.
Soundstage

Good soundstage with proper width and depth. Instruments have clear positioning with reasonable front/back placement.
Details

Good imaging with precise instrument placement. Clear localization within the soundstage including front/back positioning.
Gaming

Fundamental left/right positioning with limited depth perception. Works for non-competitive gaming but lacks precision. Bad value-to-cost for gaming purpose - not recommended
