EQ Guide for IEMs (WIP)
Coming soon. 70% done.
How to help?
The main bulk of the guide concerning EQ is done, but there is still a lot of work concerning preference targets and reference curves, which are crucial for both beginners and experts alike. Feel free to help by writing down descriptions and explanations for them, or by suggesting other targets to add. Formatting will be taken care of, so focus on the content.
Here are the ones that will be included:
- Harman In-Ear target
- UsoundV1 target
- Diffuse Field curve
- Etymotic target
- IEF 2020 target
- DF + tilt signature
- IEF 2023 target
JM-1 curve- Soundguys target
- Harman beta targets
Excerpt from JM-1 for reference
The JM-1 curve is similar to the DF + tilt signature, but a distinct difference being that instead of relying on a specific measurement rig's HRTF, it uses the canal transfer function of that specific rig, combined with the contributions from a population average pinna. It is also based on the ITU-T P.57 Type 4.3 rig, and should therefore result in a more accurate DFHRTF both in terms of canal response and outer ear response.
