    The Market Positioning And Actual Application Differences Of "Monitoring Headphones"

    It took a lot of time to translate, and some wording may have become less precise during this process. You can point them out, and I will make corrections and revisions.

    The Market Positioning And Actual Application Differences Of "Monitoring Headphones"

    This is a sharing of my understanding and application of "monitoring headphones"(or"studio headphones") in actual music work. One thing that everyone will notice is that regardless of the actual frequency response of headphones, manufacturers always promote their headphones as "monitoring"...

    Thank you, I didn't know about the report function before. I will use it in the future. Your words mean a lot to me, and yes, I can't please everyone.

    Topping's new audio interface "E2X2" quick preview.

    48V is quick to start without any delay. There were some minor stability issues with the initial V1.00 driver, but I took the time to provide feedback to them, and they resolved all the issues I raised within 2 weeks. They are receptive and prompt in making improvements, which is a very positive...

    Topping's new audio interface "E2X2" quick preview.

    This is not a formal review, just because I recently completed its measurements and saw that many people in the forum were curious. Since I have it, it's not a bad idea to share it. I, like everyone else, am looking forward to Amir's official review of it! Its input and output parameters...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    Yes, I agree with your point. The narrow frequency range variations caused by the high Q value when the harmonic component moves in the audio range can be considered an issue of objectivity. The high frequencies cannot be fixed with EQ either. So, in my previous responses, I emphasized that...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    Thank you. Yes, I know. I shared my STAX data in that comment section. I have to say that evaluating headphones is much more difficult than evaluating ADDA. The same arguments happen all over the world because everyone's ear structure is different. One realistic point is that here is not my home...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    I welcome discussions with different opinions, but you may not have noticed some unpleasant sarcastic comments that occurred earlier. I will continue to update content here, but I will choose to simply share data without saying too much about other things. Recently, I received the Topping E2X2...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    I can find a more suitable HRTF feature for Z1R to continue discussing this topic with you, but it seems pointless now. After all, I don't need to "please" anyone by defending the Z1R. Keeping the content simple will prevent me from getting involved in controversies and will also save my time. I...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    I'm tired of having to explain myself at length every time someone dismisses others with short sentence. I'm just sharing content on the ASR forum without any personal gain. I think I will delete the detailed experiences and introductions from all my previous and future reviews. They have taken...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    Actually, I haven't done any maintenance on it. I mentioned its advantages and disadvantages, and I shared its sound objectively. Based on HRTF data, I presented a more tolerant perspective on headphones. I respect that you prefer headphones that closely adhere to the Harman curve. In fact, I...

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    I have answered the same question before. Placing 1kHz on this headphone or a similar curve may cause some visual misinterpretation. The most important information of the Harman curve is actually the high-frequency boost around 3kHz-4kHz. So, to accurately represent the data without misleading...

    Alignment between 200Hz and 1000Hz, as well as the compensated curve.

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    Yes, that's also why I can't use it for professional work. High-frequency responses above 8kHz are like complex jagged puzzles for different people. Just listening to music doesn't cause any problems for me in that regard, but I completely understand how the same response can be bothersome for you.

    Sony MDR-Z1R Headphone Review

    Yes, aligning at 1kHz is the most commonly used method, but I have found that sometimes aligning at 1kHz can create some "visual misconceptions" on headphones with a peak around 3kHz. It is actually easier to match the perceived sound to its true nature by aligning at around 500Hz, 200Hz, or...
