KZ PR3 Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D
  • Expect a patchy tonal profile that makes instrumentation feel mismatched. EQ is almost mandatory to tame the response.

Average Technical Grade

E-
  • The presentation is claustrophobic and blurred, leaving simple arrangements sounding chaotic and lifeless. The presentation feels more like background noise than music.
Mids C+
Midrange performance is decent, offering balanced presence without major flaws. It works well for casual background listening.
Treble E-
Highs sound veiled and distant, draining life from the mix. Hi-hats fade before they start.
Dynamics E-
It cannot muster meaningful volume gradation, making tracks feel static. It drains life from energetic music.
Soundstage C+
The image breathes a little, spacing instruments laterally while sketching a light sense of distance. Separation improves with cleaner recordings.
