Title: UERM #2 (V2 measurement)
Post by: Marvey on July 26, 2013, 06:39:58 AM
This one is Anax's "universals"

This one does sound brighter than mine. My customs (UERM #1) have less energy in the mid-treble.


Reminder: stuff past 9k is probably inaccurate. Especially the sharp peaks. Those peaks are the effect of the ear canal and the IEM. Personally I don't think they are heard as measured.

V2 = new compensation model.

Lol, yeah I'd be deaf right now w/ that peak.  Do you want to measure them on the new rig or just use the old data?

Rig is the same. Just FR compensation is different.

The peak may be an artifact and I loved the UERM, but the UERM is one of the few iems that gave me sensitive ears from the treble (albeit after switching to it from stage monitors with attenuated treble).

The peak isn't as bad as the measurement suggests, but I bet it is there. Note that it is >8k, so way less annoying.

The peak could definitely be there, could be why the treble is not as natural sounding.  Might play around w/ eq to see if I can sweeten the treble timbre a bit by dropping it 3-5dB @ 10khz.
