The irreverent and probably irrelevant non-authoritative site for frequency response and CSD waterfall plots of whatever headphones we can get our grubby hands on. And without the stupid arguing!

Our mission is to seek out and destroy all crappy headphones. New users should read the articles in the Soapbox. There is no hazing process here. We just have a simple no drama rule.

  • Questhate: Yeah that sucks. I had the address to Hennyo's parents house so I just forwarded it to him. Maybe he can start hounding his parents like the members did to Bilavideo.

  • Analixus: The lag in sdxc has been the new spec w/ the extra pin to speed up Xfer rates to handle 2TB.  W/o the new socket in the next gen devices they aren't pushing beyond 64gb any time soon.  I noticed some deals on the 64gb cards recently.  Around 50-60 smackers.  Not too bad now when you can find the deal.

IEM Measurements?

Purin is now experimenting with measuring IEMs.

Maybe time to start discouraging people from hanging out here!

UERM beta frequency response measurement

Shure e2C beta frequency response measurement

Test your hearing!

Are you a genetic freak? Someone over 40 who can still hear up to 22kHz?

Join our discussion or test your hearing by downloading a set of files with successively decreasing frequency low-pass filters applied.

Our favorite thread and the longest too (thank heavens!) Music is ultimately what it's all about. A good place for us to expand our horizons.

So what is it with people spending thousands of dollars on amp and source for headphones that have severe colorations and problems?  (problems that are not fixable with any amp or dac)

How do you spend 7k on amp and source to have that signal filtered through this?  Or even 2k?  What's the point?  You get a little better imaging and seperation in ...

Please post any interesting recordings you may have stumbled upon in this thread. Some exposition on why you feel the recording is interesting is required.

Full Spectrum Distortion Measurements for W3000, HP1000, and SR007
80Hz

[I used a different FFT size for the HP1000 measurement, so the spike will look more narrow on the HP1000 compared to the other headphones]

All tones are at 90db SPL - so disregard the graph markings - or calibrate accordingly.
