It's been six years since I use this modèle.ce is not a cell to scratch, the pressing force should not exceed 1.5 grams, the sound is neutral, soft with a pleasant deep bass the medium is readable and clear treble. it is well suited to the classic jazz or rock from 65 to 85 years. Very good value prix.de addition, the diamond has an elliptical life around 700 hours, I speak of a diamond shurexe97, not a copy, the price (about 60) is justified if we consider that c ' is a product "audiophile". I would add that the "surface noise" is very low, it is one of the cells more neutral market! for about € 120 in nine is a great product!
