Can someone help me make a modern 5128 target PEQ for Nothing Ears 2024?

RTings has the measurement done for this IEM on their website. There's also a Graph Tool that overlays some target curves against the measurement.

Is it fair to say that the 5128 Diffuse field response is the one that most reviewers like Crinacle and Heaphones.com dudes are using?

Would someone please help me create a PEQ to adjust to that curve (or any other suitable one)?

The only caveat is that the Nothing Ear app only allows 8 frequencies and an adjustable Q factor.

Thanks!
 
Oh no, I tried doing some vibe coding using Cursor and asking to approximate the curve to the target using 8 band PEQ and it did what I asked (haven't verified if it was correct), but when I went to apply in the Nothing App I realized that their PEQ is super flawed
They only allow some limited bands, so it's not close to 8 at all in most cases. Sigh, disregard my ask.

No. Diffuse field is the basis, but is never the final target response.

Here's what you can do:
  1. Download the .zip attached below, which contains the rtings data (raw frequency response + the various targets) in .csv format
  2. Open https://autoeq.app/
  3. In the Select Headphones box, click on the Open CSV File icon and load the Nothing Ear frequency response
  4. In the Target box top left, click on the Open CSV File icon and load one of the targets
  5. Top right, choose Custom Parametric Eq
  6. Open the Professionsal EQ window in the Nothing app on your phone, then go through the filters and copy the min/max Frequency/Gain/Q values from the App into AutoEQ. Note these appear to be different for each filter.
    Set all filters to Peaking and make sure the number of filter matches the App
  7. You can then click on Play bottom middle and toggle the EQ On/Off, to see if you like the change.
  8. Click on the Plus icon top left ("Create new profile") and load the next target response
  9. You can then populate all target responses as separate profiles and switch between them as you listen to the track
  10. Once you've found your favorite, simply copy the filter values bottom right from AutoEQ into the App.

Just wOw! I don't comment much lately for months although I read certain members comments religiously and follow what is going on @ ASR and you continue to be of the greatest assistance to people in need of assistance and your kind of help is as good as it can get. Kudos! Thanks for showing how it is done...
