Treble too hot and mids are bad. Slam and stage are GREAT. Everything else is below average. Good for prog metal. Get CCA CRA instead.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D-
  • Balance is severely off, producing a harsh, unpleasant listen regardless of genre. Long sessions quickly become exhausting.

Average Technical Grade

D-
  • Hopelessly smeared and congested, it struggles with basic instrument separation and loses detail even in simple tracks. Even casual listening quickly becomes tiring.
Bass D
Bass remains light-handed, hinting at rumble without delivering real weight. It keeps out of the way but never excites.
Mids D-
Expect a lean midrange that leaves melodies without flesh. Body is stripped away from melodies.
Treble D-
Treble feels muted, reducing brilliance and sheen across tracks. Recordings lack their usual energy.
Dynamics D
The presentation feels restrained, with transients arriving blunted and slow. Rhythms lack the expected drive.
Details D
Textural clues dull down, robbing strings and vocals of their natural grit. You hear outlines rather than textures.
Imaging D
Modest imaging with basic left/right positioning that never quite nails the center image. Left/right cues exist but are rough.
Gaming D-
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
