Pros: A tribrid flagship with four electrostatic tweeters, four balanced armatures and a dynamic driver. Measurements show full sub-bass to 20 Hz (score 69 across nine measurements).
Cons: Very expensive for its rating, and a low 95 dB sensitivity needs more volume.

Frequency Response
How the ThieAudio Prestige measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is the median of 9 independent measurements, so one odd sample or rig cannot skew it, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: median of 9 measurements from the squig.link databases of atechreviews, bloomaudio, eliseaudio, hbb, precog, seanwee, sl0the, timmyv and vsg. Thanks to each of them for publishing their work.
