rip me I lost one of the screens fo rmy ZST's

lol

who cares

>>I was drawn to seminar given by Sean Olive an acoustic research fellow for Harman International. The discussion was about what makes a good headphone and in ear monitor. I interviewed him about the new Harman curve, and the future of headphones, and a discussion on correlation between dollars spent and sound quality. The headphone that achieved a perfect frequency response against the Harman curve was an 80 dollar Sony headphone, a surprising factoid.

MDR-7506 confirmed most perfect headphone ever made

<:hms:311152554618912768>

lmao

the 7506 is not at all harman

also harman sucks dick

this is why I hate inline mics

JBL Synchros S10 has issues with audio on the left side due to the in-line mic.

They also sound worse than Vido earphones

my zse's cable is tarting to die

i think

How do you guys feel about software EQ's?

nothing wrong with it

every headphone could use some amount of eq

as everyone has different hearing

it allow the individual to tune the sound to their liking

My hearing range is like, 20-19,000 Hz.

the foobar one

sucks

install equalizerapo or whatever its callexc

It does, I'm noticing some issues, like, fucktons of distortion in the bass.

use peace

https://sourceforge.net/projects/peace-equalizer-apo-extension/

eh the gui on apo is good enough for me

but i mostly use it for speaker correction

THis is actually much better than the foobar one

Might as well put that on my kekpad too

usd?

creative aurvana live

t2

oh

headphons

earphones is ok too

thanks hektik

aussie too nice

oh earphones

just keep the xe800 lmao

nah either is fine

yeah these are good

get some oneodios <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

yeah

no

just keep using xe800 tbh

like closed backs suck

alright

unless ok with open back i can only think of like 3 closed backs in existence that even remotely compete with the xe800

are the xes that good

wew

its more that closed backs just suck shit

ah yeah fair enough

iems are better value at every price point imo

compared to head phones

closed back headphones yeah

the xe800 is basically acoustically identical to the gr07, which that itself is already stupid good value at like 5x the price of the xe800

ah ok

i dont know what i have apparently

ill enjoy them more

lol

as long as you get a good seal, theyre insanely good

so nothing really beats vivo for iems

for the budget

yeah but the issue is that theyre pretty much nonexistant anymore lol

so hard to find a legit pair

but yeah

😬

hopefully i have a legit one

pretty sure its real bought it almost a year ago

how about over ear head phones

probably you did

open backs are better after like $250 or so imo

eg hd600/650 level

ah fair

so unless i go up to that budget vivos are fine

pretty much yeah

👌
