Thanks for your time and pics BMF, although I am wondering some of the images doesn't have "graphs" on it? Just the straight line.

Yup, all of them are fine now. Thanks!
Thanks for the incredible dedication and awesome FR graphs.
I noticed the FR graphs are a lot flatter with the Shure pads, over the 003/HM5 pads, despite of many people (maybe a majority) preferring the HM5 pads. Is there something I'm missing?
In the very last FR graph for this mod (Stock with Acoustipack Lite and Felt in the Cup Floors, Newplast, Stiffened Craft Felt over the driver, Cotton over Fiberglass, Baffle Port Close, and FA-003 Pads), there is a peculiar giant plunge off in the treble range at one point. Was this in error, or a symptom of closing the baffle port and using the 003 pads together? This oddity isn't there with the Shures.
Wow, practically a thesis worth of material here. I wonder if it would be possible to present the data in some sort of online database, something akin to Headroom's graph comparison system.

I took the (little) time to update the Wiki page, linking this thread. Thanks for the measurements BMF. This should really help me, and others no doubt, to look for common characteristics of certain material and slightly predict what the outcome would be in their own mods.
This is an interesting idea but probably not worth the effort since these "snapshot" DIY measurements were made with a measuring kit that cost $50.00. There's No comparison to the professional rigs used by purrin and Tyll that cost $50,000.00.
Times like this make me wish I knew how to program... I can see how the database/queries would work, but have no idea how to implement it. And don't sell yourself short about your measurements not being worth the effort. No one else so far has attacked it as vigorously as you have, and the key thing is that you have approached it in a methodical and consistent manner which makes it very valuable.
If we could somehow build a frontend for the database, if you (or anyone else) ever built up another set of graphs it would be a "simple" matter to simply import that or create another database for use.
Are you able to make overlays of the FR graphs? Such as for each modding arrangement but with the three different pads? Or with the same pads but different mods?
