Frequently Asked Questions

The Perform series is a more accessible version, using a slightly thinner shell and a different bearing edge, sacrificing some nuance for a more affordable price.
While the finish is beautiful, it's a lacquered shell, so it's somewhat softer than some other finishes and requires careful handling to avoid minor blemishes.
The MS20R14S wires offer a balanced response, leaning towards crispness and control, making it suitable for a wide range of musical styles – not overly aggressive.
