Average Technical & Tuning Grades
Average Tunign Grade
C+- Flawed execution of tonal character. Noticeable peaks/dips affect timbre and coherence. May suit specific genres but lacks refinement.
Average Technical Grade
B-- Competent but unremarkable. Decent detail retrieval in quieter tracks, though busy sections challenge cohesion. Imaging is average, lacking depth.
Bass
C+
Average bass performance - present but unremarkable. Has reasonable texture but lacks depth and physicality.
Mids
C+
Decent midrange performance - balanced but unremarkable. Adequate clarity for most genres without notable flaws.
Treble
C+
Decent treble with acceptable extension and detail. Can sound slightly unrefined but avoids being harsh or sibilant.
Dynamics
C-
Average dynamics - passable but unexciting. Transients are rounded and micro-dynamics lack refinement.
Details
C+
Decent detail retrieval. Handles most textures adequately though micro-details and ambient cues could be more pronounced.
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. Bad value-to-cost for gaming purpose - not recommended
