Decent tonality but boring dynamics and low-level detailing. Oddly dipped in the mid-treble.

Amp, tip, fit dependent. Pinna gain of death. Technicalities are good, but it's too bright for some, including me. Good for people that listen at VERY low levels and love some bite. Bass lacks intangible aspects.

Average Technical Grade
B- The presentation is steady if unspectacular, holding onto essential details when the music stays simple. Fine details occasionally slip through the cracks.
Bass
B-
The bass offers steady support without stepping into the spotlight. There's just enough punch for everyday playlists.
Mids
B-
Expect a competent midrange that keeps vocals grounded and instruments clear. Tone is acceptable across multiple genres.
Treble
B-
Highs come through with reasonable clarity while staying mostly smooth. Sibilance is mostly controlled.
Dynamics
C
Dynamics are average—competent yet lacking real excitement. It keeps music listenable but uninspiring.
Soundstage
B
Lateral spread stretches comfortably while front/back cues start to feel convincing. You can trace front-to-back movement.
Details
B-
It rides the line between musicality and analysis, occasionally letting micro-detail slip by. Complex mixes stay organized for the most part.
Imaging
B-
A stable phantom center appears, lending vocals a consistent anchor. It maintains a coherent phantom center.
Gaming
B
Decent spatial awareness for fundamental positioning. Creates satisfying atmosphere in story-driven games while handling basic directional cues. Value-to-cost may not be optimal for gaming-focused users.
