What are you using to do the measurements? It sort of looks like 711, but it looks like you put smoothing on it?

Its not smoothing, its the tips, above measurements are with comply. With silicon tips the peak is more sharp.
With long comply and deep insertion treble is more smoothed out.

Ah, maybe use silicone tips for reference measurements? Personally I never use comply due to their attenuating nature. To me using comply on an IEM is like using negative feedback in an amp.

Thank you. I think that helps to show how comply differs from silicone.

What's the acquisition software you're using? You can probably change the axes increments to better suit the graph.
