坑務俏耙：
I will try to stay as brief as possible, but the Mail may get slightly long anyways.
First regarding Harman: We have never been in cooperation and strongly disagree with many of their findings (ie. distortion doesn’t matter). Sean Olive & Co published quite a lot of research in the last 10 years on target curves which sparked the interest of the community. We did similar research over 30 years ago and ended up with a fairly similar result, which is why the HD 580 and HD 600 are close to Harman-Target. However, there are some big flaws with following one target curve:
- It’s a statistical approach which tries to predict a sound profile most people will like, which means in reality just 50-60%. There are strong regional differences (ie. Americans like more bass) and sizable deviations in terms of preferred Bass and Treble amount. Since headphones should fit your personal taste and not the taste of a large group of people, just buying and evaluating headphones based on agreement to target curves is misleading.
- It ignores extremely important properties of the headphone, such as: Driver Angle, Driver Size, Openness (or inversely Occlusion), Distortion, to name the most important ones. These factors have an impact on how a headphone needs to be tuned to sound pleasant and aren’t reflected at all in the Harman Target curve. To make matters worse, some are hard to measure, so you still need to tune by ear.
- Continuing the last point, the FR simply doesn’t tell the whole story, quoting Axel: 「It’s impossible to tell whether a headphone costs $100 or $1000 by looking at the frequency response.」 With that he doesn’t mean that there are very expensive bad headphones and quite good cheap headphones (even though that’s true as well!), but that you simply shouldn’t judge headphone performance by looking at the FR alone. This is what happens a lot nowadays: People look at some compensated graphs they don’t fully understand, see a peak or a dip somewhere, listen to the headphone and consciously listen for that characteristic, even though they would never be bothered if they never looked at that graph.
First the HD 800: The recessed upper mids are intentional since the strong angling of the transducers results in a perceived increase in volume of that frequency region. Additionally, feeling that voices are farther away increases the sense of space. Regarding the bass: if you just look at the raw measurement, you will see that it is quite flat. The target curve suggests a decrease at 200 Hz since an elevated bass response bleeds into the mids otherwise. We have a flat bass response, so the dip is entirely unnecessary. The spike at 6k is hotly debated already and we have since removed it in the HD 800 S. However if you look at early reviews of the HD 800, you will rarely see complaints regarding the hot treble, so I think this is partly a problem made by looking at graphs. Overall it’s definitely a reference headphone simply due to it’s technical superiority at a fair price.
On to the IE 800 S: We simply think the Harman target for in ears is very off. Since inserting something in your ear canal changes the resonance frequency differently from individual to individual, having a strong emphasis in a certain treble area increases the risk of sounding offensive much more than with around-ear headphones. With a flatter treble we make sure that the majority of people will appreciate the music, not just the 20% which happen to have similar ears to our reference. You will find that other companies with a lot of research into sound such as Bose and Apple also reject such a strong 3k emphasis, even though they are not 「audiophile」. Respected reviewers such as crinacle hold a similar opinion.
Lastly the HD 820 upper bass/lower mids dip: There is something called the sound pressure level - sound volume - divergence effect. If you produce the same sound pressure level with both headphones and speakers at the eardrum, the speakers are perceived louder at certain frequencies. Headphones must accommodate for that effect, but only few manufacturers take this effect into account for tuning. Additionally, the target responses are very different for open and closed headphones. So using an open headphone target response to evaluate a closed headphone is misleading.
https:// hauptmikrofon.de/theile /1985-6_Kopfhörer-Beurteilungskriterien_NTG-1985.pdf (it’s in german, I hope you can read through it)
The paper shows a clear depression at 300 Hz with very little variance in Figure 2, and the result for open and closed headphones is different. The 300 Hz depression is not as significant as in the HD 820, but the authors write that "the absolute values aren't interesting, but the frequency dependency of the SLD-Effect." (Page 9).
Once again, the dip was never an issue with early impressions until measurements showed up.
Even though measurements are a fascinating topic, they are simply not at a point yet where they tell the whole story. What’s reference to one person will sound bad to another, so headphones are a very individualistic journey. My recommendation is to try out as much as you can and trust your ears on what you like best.
Beste Grüße und eine besinnliche Weihnachtszeit
