The subtleties of every note mean everything, and that is easily lost on lesser gear. This album has an astounding level of detail, and to my feeling, requires the very best electronics and transducers to truly appreciate.

It's very entertaining, and quite resolving, even if the bass is a couple of dB higher than I'd prefer. If you want the TLDR version: It's a somewhat v-shaped tuning with a fairly lively presentation and not the most high-end treble, even after a few days of continuous use ("burn-in").
