Hot dawg! The second sample measures much better than the first. Thank you very much for doing this, @Resolve .Since Drop was kind enough to send another unit over for review, here are the measurements of the second sample:
Honestly, pretty darn good if you ask me - albeit a bit concerning to see how different these two units measure. I'm going to wager a guess that this is due to slight pad variation (yes pads do make a difference), and potentially adhesive uniformity for this style of pad connection. As to whether this is the same as the RT I'm still not sure - but here you have two samples of the Aeon X Closed, and thankfully this second sample doesn't have any channel imbalance issues so that could've just been a one-off bad luck the first time around. Here are the averages overlaid:
Here's the on-head response to check bass level on my head, surprisingly there's a bit more there, BUT this isn't to do with a boost from Fs, as it's around 500hz on these headphones with significant damping.
Air gap measurements (and resonance frequency). GREEN = small gap (a pair of glasses with thick arms). BLUE = free air:
If I were to pay for shipping, would you be able to measure my pair? That way we could have three sets to average, and then, if Robbo has the time to generate an EQ profile for me, that would be just swell.
