Pros: Lower mids sit within about 0.5 dB of target, keeping voices and guitars natural.
Cons: Presence sits about 7.4 dB low with a 17 dB dip near 9.3 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite. Sub-bass is 7.1 dB short at 30 Hz, so deep bass lacks rumble. A Harman score of 49 places it in the lower part of the over-ear rankings.
