In terms of soundstage, it meets many elements of listening to Live music, such as having a wide horizontal range and a high height of soundstage. In simple terms, it gives you the feeling that the ceiling of the live venue is high enough and the reverberations can simultaneously spread to both sides and above. Overall, Basic itself has a thick imaging form, so it doesn't give you the feeling of an expansive and spacious soundstage but rather a "filling" type of expression, supplemented with slightly blurred marginalization processing. However, soundstage and imaging are variables in the pairing aspect, and in some pairings, its imaging and soundstage may have a slight indentation or a slight mid-effect, while in others, it will not. This belongs to a more mystical aspect and theoretically may not be directly related to the propulsion itself. In summary, if you prefer a soundstage that is relatively close to the face, horizontally expansive but not spacious, and leans towards an ambience-like atmosphere, then Basic should be your choice.
I believe that Basic is a relatively advanced and clever type of sound volume processing. Its richness covers the entire frequency range and does not overly focus on the low frequencies or excessively soften the high frequencies. The framework is complete, with slightly more emphasis on the low frequencies but without any obvious masking effects. The transparency is also well maintained. It is a type of sound that I, as an audio enthusiast, would greatly appreciate, without overly manipulating the frequency range. I really enjoy listening to rich vocals with Basic, and it sounds good regardless of whether it is a male or female voice. It has a great level of fusion and is especially suitable for jazz, ballads, and live performances, satisfying both the ambiance of the space and the vocal atmosphere. In conclusion, although it may be too early to say now, I believe that the high-end dynamic driver market in 2024 will have a place for the brand Horizon Doom.
