A little lacking in the upper-mids but otherwise a competent set.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • It sounds pleasant overall, with some uneven spots that hint at room for refinement. Vocals remain pleasant despite the imperfections.

Average Technical Grade

C
  • Textural information blurs together, making the stage feel pinched and gray. Instrument edges blur together frequently.
Bass D
Expect a restrained low end that prioritizes cleanliness over excitement. Impact comes across soft and restrained.
Mids C+
It presents a stable midrange foundation suitable for everyday listening. Clarity is serviceable without standing out.
Treble C-
Expect serviceable treble that keeps detail audible without much polish. It keeps the highs audible without elegance.
Dynamics C-
The system delivers passable punch but never surprises. Punch is modest rather than exciting.
Details C-
Nothing sounds offensive, yet nothing is etched sharply enough to captivate detail lovers. It's fine for casual listening sessions.
Imaging C-
Average imaging delivers reasonable localization while still lacking pinpoint specificity. You get a reasonable idea of placement.
Gaming C
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical. Value-to-cost may not be optimal for gaming-focused users.
