D Tuning
E+ Tech
For bass lovers. Bass bleeds but has slam. Upper mids elevation followed by a dip feels a bit wonky. Treble is the darker side but well extended. Techs are great for price, if you ignore the usual BA timbre and incoherency.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D
  • The tuning lacks refinement, jumping between dull and shouty without settling. Vocals frequently sound off-kilter.

Average Technical Grade

E+
  • Everything sounds flat and suffocated, with even elementary passages losing definition and energy. Expect little in the way of micro-details.
Bass C-
It keeps the low end tidy, though energy and weight remain limited. It favors balance over excitement.
Mids E+
Midrange sounds thin and brittle, robbing vocals of weight. Voices lack weight and emotion.
Treble D
Treble response is uneven, jumping between dull spots and sharp peaks. Peaks poke out unpredictably.
Details D
The overall picture is serviceable yet stripped of the tiny flourishes that add realism. Layering lacks consistent clarity.
Imaging E+
Listening becomes fatiguing when instruments refuse to remain anchored. It becomes tiring to follow the mix.
Gaming D-
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
