Combined with genre recommendations, this section helps you understand whether the IEM fits your taste — before you even hit play.

Sound Analysis

Sub-Bass is harmonious, offering enough presence without overpowering. There's a musical and controlled quality to the bass response. Physical sensation in the bass is kept to a minimum. Midrange fundamentals stay soft and clean. The upper mids are velvety, offering a more forgiving presentation. Lower treble adds a harmonious amount of sparkle. It adds a delicate sense of air without exaggeration. A tight presentation keeps everything centered. Details are soft and less emphasized, creating a smoother sound. There’s balanced separation between instruments. Some even masking appears in complex passages. Note weight is balanced and natural. Punch is moderate and well-controlled. High frequencies remain soft, avoiding sharpness. Timbre feels artificial and less convincing. Tonality is slightly off, depending on content. Textures are present without sounding analytical.
