Really good SQ for a Type R

That means your doing something wrong

or it means that some metal bands, especially the ones I generally like, dont fancy a lot of bass in their recordings, or like their music mixed a certian way. You run into a lot of bad mixes being a metalhead. it happens. A lot of metal drum recordings dont have hardly any bass on their mix because they like that "sounds like im playing my bass drum on a plastic practice pad" sound. (I.e. early lamb of god, unearth, any death metal band, any true blackmetal band)
