HIGH VOLUME SET (at least 75dbs+). Warm, comfy, vintage-like sound with great immersion. Vocals are somehow still clear at higher volume and not overly dark. Not very good tech to $$ value wise, but very unique sounding. Would not recommend for mid to lower volume listening as it'll sound too dark, congested, and "low-res". Needs scaling.

Plasticky and lo-res. Upper-midrange sounds scooped out which contributes to large imaging but nothing else commendable about this.

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- Limited resolution; finer nuances are masked. Soundstage feels narrow, and complex passages cause muddiness. Transitions lack finesse.
Bass
D
Bass is light and underwhelming. While some faint rumble exists, it lacks punch and authority in any meaningful way.
Mids
D-
Midrange is thin and hollow with noticeable gaps. Instruments lack body and vocals sound distant and weak.
Treble
C
Average treble performance - present but lacking refinement. Some graininess or splashiness affects clarity.
Dynamics
D
Noticeably compressed dynamics. Musical expression suffers with weak transients and poor contrast between quiet and loud sections.
Soundstage
C+
Decent spatial presentation with noticeable width. Some depth perception but height dimension remains underdeveloped.
Details
D
Modest detail presentation with significant loss of texture. Nuances are masked and complex passages become congested.
Imaging
C-
Average imaging - reasonable localization but lacks specificity. Instruments have general positions but lack pinpoint accuracy.
Gaming
C
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.
