Pros: Bass through the low mids stays within 1 dB of target and extends flat to 20 Hz, so bass is deep and controlled rather than bloated. Air above 10 kHz runs about 5 dB above target, giving an open sense of space. At 24 ohms and 104 dB it runs easily from a phone.
Cons: The 3 to 10 kHz range sits about 5 to 6 dB below target with a 9.7 dB dip near 6.5 kHz, so vocals lose clarity, guitars and snares lack bite, and the sound can feel veiled; hobbyist measurements give it a Harman preference score of 65.3. There is no inline microphone.
