Pros: Hobbyist measurements give it a preference score of 82 with a smooth 1.95 dB deviation from target, so midrange and bass sound natural and well balanced. Bass between 60 and 200 Hz lands right on target, and the 100mm planar driver keeps distortion low for clean, controlled low notes. At 26 ohms and 97 dB/mW it is easy to drive, so a modest amp or good dongle is enough. It matches the rating of the similarly priced Aune AR9000.
Cons: Sub-bass falls about 4 dB below target under 60 Hz and is 5.4 dB down at 30 Hz, so the lowest rumble in electronic and film scores is lighter than ideal. A 7.2 dB peak near 11.9 kHz adds sparkle that can turn sharp on bright recordings, set against a 5.4 dB dip near 8.9 kHz. The open back leaks sound and blocks no outside noise.
