What it is:
An entry level universal fit IEM from Westone with a single balanced armature driver.
Build and Ergonomics:
Very high quality build. Very comfortable fit. The signature Westone cable goes over the ear, and is very flexible and free of microphonics.
Sound:
Overall great sound, very fun sounding with good detail, speed, control and separation. Slight emphasis on treble, and a mild bump on the upper bass gives a fun, toe-tapping beat. Sound signature very similar to the Westone 3 model, with perhaps a little less upper bass bump.
Specifications:
Sensitivity: 122 dB SPL @1kHz
Frequency response: 20 Hz-16 kHz
Impedance: 27 ohms @1kHz
Driver: Balanced armature, full range
Features: Soft padded travel case, ten different eartips, wax loop for
cleaning, 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. plug adapter and inline volume control.
Price: $139.00
