Pros: Bass extends flat to 20 Hz and sits on target across 38 measurements, giving full, even low end without boom. The warm, smooth tuning is easy to listen to for hours and never turns harsh.
Cons: The presence region is about 7 dB low with an 8.6 dB dip near 4.1 kHz, the deepest in this group, so vocals sound distant and instruments lose definition. Treble sits about 3 dB low overall, and a Harman score of 63 places it in the lower part of the in-ear rankings.
