Pleasant tuning that's too dark for my preferences. Seems to have some QC issues.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C-
  • Expect a patchy tonal profile that makes instrumentation feel mismatched. EQ is almost mandatory to tame the response.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Textural information blurs together, making the stage feel pinched and gray. Instrument edges blur together frequently.
Bass D+
Impact feels muted, leaving the low end polite and underwhelming. You may find yourself reaching for EQ boosts.
Mids C-
It delivers a workable midrange that could benefit from smoother transitions. Timbre isn't quite convincing yet.
Treble D
Highs feel erratic, with dips and spikes that make the signature unpredictable. It alternates between splashy and dull.
Dynamics D
Dynamics come across throttled, leaving energetic moments underwhelming. Energetic passages land with a thud.
Soundstage C+
It pushes sound outward confidently while leaving height development as an unfinished idea. Height remains subtle but detectable.
Details C-
Nothing sounds offensive, yet nothing is etched sharply enough to captivate detail lovers. It's fine for casual listening sessions.
Imaging D+
It sketches positions loosely while allowing outlines to blur. Instrument outlines remain fuzzy.
Gaming C-
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.
