Anyone ever carried out swept THD/IMD measurements and such, outside of headphone manufacturers that is? It sure sucks not to have more objective descriptions of cans' qualities - for example, bass and highs harmonic distortion would be interesting (bass quality has been notoriously difficult to evaluate correctly by ear), and then I'd sure like to see the influence of driver size on the all-important IMD (the more complex the music, the more significant this is). Waterfall analysis should be more common, too - the frequency response may not really tell about resonances that are present, but this'll do. (I've only seen a waterfall plot for the MDR-V6 so far.)
