Laut Stereoplay sehr linearer Frequenzgang bei geringen Verzerrungswerten. Einstufung im Spitzenklassebereich (2?).
 
 
 
Level 5 erhielt die nächsthöhere Einstufung wegen tieferen pegelstärkeren Bassbereichs.
 
 
 
Mein Klangeindruck Level 4: Dynamisch, analytisch in allen Bereichen, durchsichtig, durch großen Mitteltöner mühelose Mittenwiedergabe mit Kickbass.

According to the Stereoplay test report, the difference to the Level 5 lies in the Level 5's larger bass section. According to Stereoplay, very linear frequency response with low distortion values. Classification in the top class range (2?).

Level 5 received the next higher rating due to deeper, more powerful bass range.

My sound impression level 4: dynamic, analytical in all areas, transparent, due to large midrange driver effortless midrange reproduction with kick bass. Metal dome tweeter is not noticeable by aggressiveness / obtrusiveness despite powerful, well-faithful treble reproduction (linear according to Stereoplay).
