Detail / air
Treble air and micro-detail without harshness
Detail (often called air or transparency) is the fine grain of a recording — cymbal decay, room reverb, fret noise — without harsh sibilance. Hi-Res masters can help, but a good mix matters more. We score how rewarding that detail is on resolving gear.
