Sound quality description

In this review, I use the standard eartips size L and drive it with the FiiO M15.

 

MEZE RAI SOLO has a V-shaped sound signature with emphasis on the upper midrange to mid-high range. It has an impressive sound with a bit of luster, but the midrange is a bit blurred and lacks dryness and freshness.

 

Please see here for detailed reviews on sound quality.

 

Sound quality general comment
  • Original Sound Fidelity: A-
  • Recommendation: B+
  • Personal preference: B

 

If you like bright sounds with a tendency toward a little sharpness, RAI SOLO is highly recommended. It is not bad, especially if you are attracted to sharp guitars, dry and slightly coarse cymbals, and aggressive female vocals with an emphasis on shouting.
