Pros: Bass sits close to target and holds down to 20 Hz, so low end sounds full without bloat. Lower mids sit within about 0.5 dB of target, keeping voices and guitars natural.
Cons: Presence sits about 5 dB low with a 9.6 dB dip near 3.8 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite. A Harman score of 58 places it in the lower part of the over-ear rankings.
