Youtube Video Summary
Canpur CP622B makes a striking first impression with a premium case, tidy accessories, and a shimmering faceplate—but the shell is huge, bordering on chunky, and can push fit comfort limits over longer sessions. Sonically, it hits with authoritative sub-bass and impressive extension, yet the overall presentation skews dark; vocals sit a touch recessed, with a wish for more 1.5–3 kHz presence and a bit more upper-air sparkle. Out of the box it already thumps, but a light EQ lift to upper mids and bass can coax out more vibration and energy.
On graphs and in A/Bs, the CP622B comes off as a specialist: fantastic low-end texture (bass judged around 9.5 for level), solid resolution and stage, but imaging feels slightly constrained by the muted 3 kHz region. Compared with peers, FATfreq Grand Maestro reads like the safer “one-and-done” all-rounder with more flair up top; Aful Cantor delivers comparable presence at a fraction of the cost; Hisenior Mega5-EST Bass offers a friendlier fit and a tuning that can feel just a hair more balanced; and as a personal north star, Elysian Annihilator 2023 still sets the bar for extension and excitement. Net: a fantastically built, bass-thrilling CP622B that shines with hip-hop/R&B and cinematic lows, but reads as niche and pricey—a connoisseur’s piece for big collections rather than a first-pick endgame.
