What We Think

The P12 has a somewhat more open and airy top end, low end is not really hyped, while the midrange response remains rich and smooth. Cymbals and �crack� benefit from the top end boost, acoustic guitars require less EQ for attack and less low end roll off. Overall it will deliver an airy and smooth representation of the source!
