    impedance v. frequency for T-1 gen 2 Beyer phones ?

    I've tried various search terms - nuthin' ? I'd like to see a plot of the impedance of a Beyerdynamic T-1 gen 2 phone. Or is this information so useless no one's bothered with it ( I DO have a talent for seeking answers to meaningless questions.)
