lot of cool ideas, I don't know how reliable those are but you guys are clearly trying to get the ball rolling and that's great.
about PRTF, won't it tend to automatically give good grades to anything with drivers tilted or moved off axis and toward the front, just from how it's measured? not that it's not a relevant variable in how much the headphone will involve the user's own pina in the final signature. but I would have imagined the standard frequency response compared directly to the 30° speaker measurement to be a more important indicator. maybe finding a way to mix both, so that we know the final response would be close to the FR coming for a 30° speaker even when the user's pinna is really special thanks to how much it varies on the PRTF.
I almost want to join your team just to be able to mess around with all those ideas and gears sometimes. plus Cedric wouldn't be the one with the worst English accent anymore. I'm way way worst. ^_^
there are a few considerations like how I have no qualifications whatsoever for such jobs, and live on another continent. but aside from those small details, I'd be perfect
