But do you actually own them?
No, just commenting on measurements.
You retype the opinion of a well known grifter word for word and don't even hide it, but berate others for blindly believing the expert opinion. Cool!
I am not trying to berate others. Give an example of "berating" please, so I can avoid it in the future. Again, I am not trying to berate others. Also, please link where someone said what I said word for word. I guess my KEF joke wasn't very original. Welp. That comment was an observation that I felt many people do not look at measurements from other websites and instead rely on measurements exclusively from this website.
You don't need to consume every new product out there. Zero with EQ is perfectly fine. Although i can't recommend Truthear products because of the fitting issues, i get why people love Zero:Red.
Wow, I'm incoherent! What I meant was that the Zero:Red was so good that anyone who has it should not need to buy anything unless they are willing to shell out at least 135 USD.
And here I thought you could take two measurements from different rigs, make a "virtual IEM" equalization, and then record a product review...
Now, I do know about this...and I agree with ASR on this one. Good measurements can prove products are good quality, but it is indeed impossible to make one product sound exactly like another based on measurements.
Just a heads up, putting down the Truthear Zero series is a thing on the Apple House Sound discord server, a place where people put down successful IEMs, and praise some obscure and questionably tuned sets.
Finally, I will not hide the fact that I do view this server. I do not agree with everything there, same with here. In fact, I'd say that most of the people on there lack any kind of knowledge on audio/audio science. It's comical in a way. Do they put down successful IEMs? Sometimes. Most people there have
different opinions. That is why I am there. People have discussions and usually both sides are wrong. But what really is "right"? It's getting philosophical here. In short, viewing in or engaging with a community is not an agreement with that community. Instead, it is opportunity to understand a different perspective.
I really do see where you guys are coming from with this; the Zero:Red is certainly a good IEM. I cannot dispute that. It may be the best for some people.
