JAY's audio memes (and reviews/ranking too I guess)

Some impressions (without mod) of Estrella:

Pros:

:gem_stone: Good tuning throughout FR
:gem_stone: Good sub-bass over mid-bass
:gem_stone: Mid-bass is not cut
:gem_stone: Separation of bass from mids
:gem_stone: Lower mids are neither thin nor too thick. They have very good quality.
:gem_stone: Upper mids have a unique tuning and interact well with the rest of the FR
:gem_stone: Very good dynamic images
:gem_stone: Treble extension is made with taste. The cymbals sound realistic
:gem_stone: Textured drums section
:gem_stone: Good male and very good female vocals
:gem_stone: Textured and well layered sound, well above the price point
:gem_stone: A sense of space and 3D stage that rivals some EST IEMs
:gem_stone: Very well resolution :high_voltage:
:gem_stone: Easy to drive
:gem_stone: Very comfortable and with a beautiful shell
:gem_stone: Thin and flexible cable and good sound matching. Does not need immediate replacement.
:gem_stone: Good quality of macro and micro dynamics
:gem_stone: Thoughtful selection of drivers. DD is fast and capable. This is an IEM that shows that the quantity of drivers is not always related to better sound quality

Cons:

:thinking: The bass could be a bit faster and more textured
:thinking: Uppermids may be more in quantity for some
:thinking: A bit more soundstage wide
:thinking: It is not completely universal. Some genres need a slight FR adjustment
:thinking: The cable has no switches
:thinking: There are eartips with a better match
