Pros: Lower mids sit within about 0.5 dB of target, keeping voices and guitars natural. It uses 1 x 90mm planar magnetic.

Cons: Presence sits about 3.7 dB low with a 9.4 dB dip near 10.3 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite. A 4.2 dB peak near 11.9 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp. Sub-bass is 4.9 dB short at 30 Hz, so deep bass lacks rumble.
