I wanted to ask about the MH750. I read that it was based on the FR of the MH1. Were you involved in the MH750? How does it differ?

 

Yes, i was involved in MH750, and since MH1 and MH750 can be seen as relatives I will mention few words about it. MH750 is a more economical version of MH1 with somewhat slightly different signature as can be seen below...  

 

1000

... most part of the midrange is similar but there are some differences at the lower and upper range. Subbass is slightly higher, while treble roll offs somewhat earlier. So compared to the MH1, overall sound signature of the MH750 can be perceived as slightly darker... further, as there is less energy at the top-end in combination with some more presence in mid-treble will lead to impression of some small treble coloration, and less overall detail compared to MH1.

Kiteki! Between the MH1 and the MH1C, which do you prefer? According to Rin and forum member Tangster who compared both, MH1C has more bass? But ClieOS and Sead said that they should be the same?

 

Which one should I get?

 

Thanks.

Here is a brief bit about them in a round up review video!

I'm new to the world of quality headphones. Thanks to head fi I've been introduced to test only the ksc75 8320 so far and now the mh1c.

At first they don't sound great. So smooth I wasn't sure it sounded correct. With the bass drowning the soundscape. It's not bad in fact it makes apparent how lacking the 8320 is.

With the air vent blocked it's still a tad too much. Dropping -2 eq in bass with the mod sounds great.

I tried the treble foam mod. Found the treble noticeably clearer but at the expense of not being able to listen as loud because of an instant harshness fatigue feeling. With the foam back in an increase of 4 in treble that's recommended by some makes high vocals sound static low bit rate like. Cutting the foam in half to get the balance right works superbly. Treble is now clear rather than smooth sounding and further reaching.

At the end of it all it's become a great sounding headphone. So smooth yet pronounced, so wide and well ranged. Thanks to all involved in making this budget iem noticeable and available. smily_headphones1.gif:thumbup::beer:

Hi Sead, are you involved in developing other IEM's or is there anything else with similar sound signature as MH1? Thank you.

Not unless Sead sent me a pair for free.

 

Just kidding. It looks like a regular EX300 turned into headset, I don't think I'll review it since we already has reviews on EX300 around.

I just tried cutting the foam in half, and the sound signature now sounds a lot more appealing to me. On bass heavy songs the bass is still prominent, but on everything else they sound brilliant.
