    I found the sound to be very pleasing. On my system I didn't not have any compressed sound stage, it was a very beautiful and transpartent listen. This one is a good one.

      Sound is transparent with a lot of detail, the soundstage is a little compressed in height. Overall the sound is a bit raw but it is still very pleasant.
