Measurements

What does this mean?

The black line is something that could be called the „ideal“ curve of what a headphone should sound like. The Harman Research Group has a range of scientific studies around audio and the human perception of it - one of which was, how should a headphone sound like to be favored by a majority of people, no matter the age or other demographic variables? This result is called the Harman target.

From left to right we have the sub bass, bass, mids and then the curve finally tilts upward where the treble begins - this part of the frequency spectrum gets amplified naturally by the shape of the human ear. 

As we can see, it is not elevated in the bass region - just neutral. This extends to the mids and lower treble, until, in the upper treble, it is slightly recessed. This tuning doesn't emphasize anything, it tries to be true to the source - and without causing listening fatigue over long periods. 

This is really a professional tool, or a headphone for the discerning listener who wants his music presented in a way that represents the producers ideal.
