Oratory's measurements are for EQ not for review, I guess I should have specified I meant within the context of reviews. The rest absolutely are as I described, presenting overly smoothed measurements to hide imperfections, some don't even post distortion measurements or present them (and...

tbh I don't trust any measurements not made by Amir mostly because the others are being made subjectivists on non standardized rigs with no protocol incentivized to present pretty looking measurements and thus are often presenting overly smoothed measurements to hide imperfections

Resolve is a subjectivist who only uses measurements because of market pressure. I wouldn't trust a word he says, especially since he sews doubt about ASR. If you watch any of the Headphone Show reviews and read the comments it becomes increasingly obvious none of the reviewers there actually...

Could be better but nothing EQ can't fix

Will you be sending a finished unit to Amir once it's finalized?

Still can't find measurements for these anywhere but maybe I'm not looking hard enough

I got one a few years ago and only kept it because of the comfort. Either the bass distortion seen in Resolve's measurements is audible or the tuning is awkward because to me it sounds like mud

Well it's definitely dead this time. I won't be buying a replacement

I thought the carbon fiber = high end trend ended a few years ago. Makes me think the design was finalized a while ago

I was specifically talking about their audio products. They're well designed just not state of the art

For those worrying about it draining your phone battery I bought this recently and it's great https://www.belkin.com/p/usb-c-audio-charge-adapter/F7U081btWH.html

What I meant my secret sauce is unmeasurable characteristics that poster was mentioning, I apologize if I was misunderstood

There is no secret sauce in driver types or driver material. You mention AMTs, from the measurements of speakers with AMT tweeters that I've seen the "wow factor" is likely from elevated treble

That's what I meant lol, I'm sure it's more than the grill I'm just saying the grill looks complex. I mean that as a compliment though!

I have to imagine that the added price is at least in part due to that mesh grill. I personally am happy with my Noire X but if I hadn't gotten a pair I might have considered this instead.

I'm not convinced that they're inferior or superior to other types of tweeters despite what marketing might tell you, but I've used a couple of speakers that have them and liked them.

Is this tweeter issue the reason why there's a massive jump in loudness after a certain point with the volume nob? Edit I bought a pair and I absolutely love how they sound, even compared to the more expensive Eve SC203 but I find it really hard to get the volume to where I want it

maybe I'm lucky but I finally tried with my glasses on and noticed no real difference, but then I run into another issue, they make my glasses uncomfortable to wear lol

Honestly the Earpods are still the best ones on the market especially since a lot of other offerings don't come with a USB-C or Lightning connector. With others you'll need a dongle like the Apple dongle. In my experience when it comes to audio it's good to never write off Apple, they may not...

I was really hoping someone would send a pair to Erin or Amir by now lol. I would but I like mine too much to go without them for very long
