theyre literally not

2017-06-19 20:44:47 UTC  

im fairly certain they have some really wonky driver ressonance

2017-06-19 20:44:56 UTC  

i'm using em rn

2017-06-19 20:45:11 UTC  

I need to find a conservative wife so she would spank me hard for slacking off and chatting here

2017-06-19 20:45:28 UTC  

you'd be better off buying some ZS5's for less if you want a decent IEM for the price

2017-06-19 20:45:39 UTC  

but my balls between pliers

2017-06-19 20:45:43 UTC  

or i could mod a pair of monks and also have the rest of my chifi collection

2017-06-19 20:45:52 UTC  

it's not like i have to limit myself to one pair of headphones

2017-06-19 20:46:10 UTC  

do you even have a way to measure the fr tho

2017-06-19 20:46:14 UTC  

ZS5 is a meme, no need to spend that money

2017-06-19 20:46:25 UTC  

i tend to modify most of my cheap audio stuff anyway since usually there's some design flaw i can fix

2017-06-19 20:46:32 UTC  

tuning by ear goes horridly most of the time

2017-06-19 20:46:47 UTC  

i can tune by my thousands of dollars of electronics lab

2017-06-19 20:46:58 UTC  

you have reference microphones?

2017-06-19 20:47:02 UTC  

i can get one

2017-06-19 20:47:07 UTC  

only bit i'm missing for that

2017-06-19 20:47:21 UTC  

just buy a emm-6 or the superlux clone

2017-06-19 20:47:57 UTC  

"just buy a" is never the fun thing to do though?

2017-06-19 20:48:05 UTC  

what

2017-06-19 20:48:09 UTC  

im talking about mics

2017-06-19 20:48:30 UTC  

or an imm6 if youre poor

2017-06-19 20:48:30 UTC  

try to write it all in once, it's not whatsapp...

2017-06-19 20:48:31 UTC  

i have an idea for another way to measure i wanna try

2017-06-19 20:48:42 UTC  

mics are cool but easy to make poor measurement from ambient noise

2017-06-19 20:48:54 UTC  

i could measure the diaphragm's movement optically

2017-06-19 20:49:25 UTC  

unless you live in a fucking construction site you wont have issue with measuring IEMs when it comes to background noise

2017-06-19 20:49:45 UTC  

i live in a server room

2017-06-19 20:49:47 UTC  

/ workshop

2017-06-19 20:50:03 UTC  

and it is free shipping!

2017-06-19 20:50:07 UTC  

you sold it there

2017-06-19 20:50:08 UTC  

:D

2017-06-19 20:50:12 UTC  

i dont even have a bed i fold a cot out from under one of my benches lol

2017-06-19 20:50:18 UTC  

unless your server room is 65db+ you shouldnt have an issue

2017-06-19 20:50:26 UTC  

I want the 1967 ones

2017-06-19 20:50:36 UTC  

i could correct for all the fan noise easily enough yeah

2017-06-19 20:50:40 UTC  

even then just fucking go outside or out of the server room

2017-06-19 20:50:48 UTC  

i still wanna try making an optical rig sometime though

2017-06-19 20:50:59 UTC  

that sounds super fun

2017-06-19 20:51:01 UTC  

seems like an interesting idea

2017-06-19 20:51:17 UTC  

that said, you'd have no way of getting an FR from it
