Thieaudio Oracle MKII review: Great design, terrific sound

The Oracle MKII have a vibrant design that's guaranteed to turn heads, and the combination of three drives ensures you get a fabulous sound.

The exaggerated low-end makes the Oracle MKII a fun listen, and Thieaudio did a good job ensuring the bass isn't so overwhelming that it bleeds into the mid-range.
