Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones

Unfortunately I only have an iSine 10, but the frequency responses are similar, with the main difference being the iSine 20 has a dip at 4200Hz that the iSine 10 does not.
@stmiller
I have a new EQ! and this one i haven't changed in a month, so I'm pretty darn satisfied with it now. No more adjustments from now on!
I have moved to using impulse response files, this reduces the CPU usage to 0-1% while keeping the same sound.

(Note: you need the one that matches your playback device sample rate. My DAC is set to 96KHz. That is what all my EQs were created on. (EqualizerAPO filters work differently depending on sample rate).
The files here that are not 96KHz are resamples. You should get the same effective (20-20000Hz) frequency response as me, but there may be abnormalities in the higher frequencies. I have not tested any of the non-96KHz versions but they should work.

iSine10EQFinalImpulse96KHz_192000_RESAMPLE.wav
iSine10EQFinalImpulse96KHz_384000_RESAMPLE.wav

As for applying this into EqualizerAPO, simply add an Convolution filter (should be in Advanced filters), and load the file.
You may need to place the .wav file in the EqualizerAPO installation directory! (C:\Program Files\EqualizerAPO)

As for how I made the impulse responses, see this guide.

Wavelet Version

I converted this EQ to Wavelet too. However, Wavelet has a limited number of bands, so the accuracy isn't the best.

I added this filter to this EQ:
Filter: ON PK Fc 18000 Hz Gain -6 dB Q 1.3704

I don't think the upper treble is as rolled off as the measurements suggest.

Try my eq for the Audeze iSine 10 guys (No CIPHER cable!)
I eq'd it by ear to match the tonality of my Etymotic's (super smooth). Sounds awesome.

Less-precise, parametric EQ:
Preamp: -6.2 dB
Filter 1: ON PK Fc 921 Hz Gain -5.5 dB Q 0.820
Filter 2: ON PK Fc 1474 Hz Gain -4.3 dB Q 2.980
Filter 3: ON PK Fc 2596 Hz Gain 3.9 dB Q 1.250
Filter 4: ON PK Fc 4929 Hz Gain 6.6 dB Q 2.570
Filter 5: ON PK Fc 9000 Hz Gain -2.8 dB Q 1.100
Filter 6: ON PK Fc 3992 Hz Gain 1.9 dB Q 3.890
Filter 7: ON PK Fc 4899 Hz Gain -1.5 dB Q 1.670
Filter 8: ON PK Fc 5863 Hz Gain 0.6 dB Q 5.930
Filter 9: ON PK Fc 4308 Hz Gain -4.7 dB Q 4.700
Filter 10: ON HSC Fc 11000 Hz Gain 5.5 dB Q 1.000
Filter 11: ON PK Fc 3400 Hz Gain 4.6 dB Q 2.600
Filter 12: ON PK Fc 3000 Hz Gain -1.1 dB Q 6.000
Filter 13: ON PK Fc 8000 Hz Gain -2.0 dB Q 1.000
Filter 14: ON PK Fc 7000 Hz Gain 3.4 dB Q 5.000
Filter 15: ON PK Fc 13600 Hz Gain -6.0 dB Q 10.000
Filter 16: ON PK Fc 11000 Hz Gain 5.1 dB Q 1.700
Filter 17: ON PK Fc 9500 Hz Gain -2.0 dB Q 7.000

Highly-precise 130 band graphic EQ:
eq apo.pngSee attached files for the settings, I also attached a 127 band EQ for Wavelet

By the way, here's how I'm fitting them: Audeze iSINE and LCDi4 Setup Tutorial
I followed the audeze video, im using the medium smooth tips, clear hooks (turned at that angle!), and shallow inserting them like audeze shows

there could be some unit variation shenanigans so it might not sound like mine but this eq that i made sounds WAY better than every other eq ive tried.
After switching back and forth with this EQ and your latest EQ, I think this one still the best sounding EQ settings with my setup. Many thanks
