Beyer DT1350 #2 Frequency Response
« on: March 12, 2012, 07:44:16 PM »
Beyer DT1350 #2 Frequency Response and CSD Waterfall Plots. s/n #13xxx. STOCK PADS.



This "good" pair also has more bass than the "off" sounding pair. The measurements are not totally accurate for the supra-auras as they tend to show a tad more bass on the graph than is is actually heard. Still I would consider these good DT1350's slightly bassy. Now compare the above to badly matched pair from a few days ago:

The mids are slightly reduced...did the velour pads do anything for them in this area?

I don't think the tone changed that much. Maybe some slight differences in bass, but way more comfy though. So it's a good mod. Let me dig up those measurements with the pads. But I need to take a nap for a bit first.

I did the pad mod last night... Big win.  Easy seal, way more comfy.  Too bad it can't fix my other issues with these.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Quite the opposite normally without the velour pads.  These seem to be to be very articulate and almost "bright" when I have them on.  Can't explain the frequency chart at all.  Unless those ups and downs don't really meant that much.  I think the 2.5k and near 5k peaks must be what gives me the brightness impression.  Others have expressed hearing something lacking in the mid-bass and I think this shows this quite well.  To me the pads seem to mitigate this and they get warmer and nearer the HD-25s and a bit more balanced.

I didn't feel the ups and down were that bad or something that stuck out that much.  Although compared to something more flat and neutral like the HP1000 or UERM, you could certainly hear the unevenness in FR. They aren't sharp peaks - so that's good.

Here is a graph comparing pads. Pads (Green + Red). No Pads (Blue + Orange). Looks like the pads push down the bass a bit and bring out 10kHz
