Soundstage
It is no doubt that spatial imaging and layering can be good in their own right. Its soundstage outdoes a lot of closed-backs in terms of width and dimension. It takes the floaty sound environment of the open version and translates that spaciousness to a closed setting.
Low End
The closed-back version does its best job of offering a more substantial low-end response while maintaining as much clarity as possible. Bass instruments have a more forward feel, cutting into the mid-bass with tightness and speed. The level of depth, combined with its growling tone and mid-bass punch makes the Sundara closed-back a potential bass-head favorite.
Mids
The strong low-mid warmth never clouds the rest of the frequency response in bloatedness. Vocals are sharp and front-facing for enhanced vividness.
Highs
Its high frequency is also a warm feeling, and it will not be very obtrusive.
Summary
