Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • A mostly enjoyable signature keeps things listenable despite a handful of quirks. It handles most playlists without major complaints.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Textural information blurs together, making the stage feel pinched and gray. Instrument edges blur together frequently.
Bass C-
It keeps the low end tidy, though energy and weight remain limited. It favors balance over excitement.
Mids B
Expect a confident midrange that keeps details audible without harshness. Acoustic arrangements sound engaging.
Treble C+
Treble is decent, offering acceptable extension without harshness. It balances presence with a touch of restraint.
Dynamics C-
It maintains a steady dynamic profile that neither offends nor inspires. Swells arrive but lack drama.
Details C-
The presentation is fine for casual listening but leaves refinement on the table. There's some grain on quieter elements.
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.
