Truthear Hexa Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

B
  • It sounds pleasant overall, with some uneven spots that hint at room for refinement. Vocals remain pleasant despite the imperfections.

Average Technical Grade

B
  • It offers a competent showing, maintaining cohesion on straightforward arrangements. Complex passages start to challenge it, but never derail the show.
Mids A-
The mid band shines with organic tone and finely rendered textures. Long sessions remain fatigue-free.
Treble B
Highs sound lively and extended while remaining controlled. Detail retrieval keeps shimmer intact.
Dynamics C+
Expect solid impact overall, even if finer gradations feel a touch smoothed. Micro-details could still be sharper.
Soundstage A-
The stage stretches in every direction, carving out clear three-dimensional pockets for each player. Placement accuracy impresses from the start.

Penon Free iem Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

E
  • It feels tonally jarring, swinging between piercing treble and bloated bass with no cohesion. It feels chaotic regardless of genre.

Average Technical Grade

E-
  • A foggy, one-dimensional presentation wipes out layering and obscures the finer points of a mix. Spatial cues barely register at all.
Mids D
The region feels unstable, alternating between honky resonance and missing information. You'll hear odd resonances across the mids.
Treble E-
Treble is heavily rolled off, muting sparkle and detail. Detail retrieval in highs is nonexistent.
Dynamics E-
Dynamics barely flicker, leaving energetic sections strangely subdued. There's no punch to latch onto.
Soundstage E+
Spatial cues try to emerge but crumble, causing instruments to smear toward the center line. Everything clusters toward the middle.
