1MORE H1707 Triple-Driver Over Ear

I ain't buyin' anything where I don't know what I'm really gettin' and how would I know what I got anyway? What a stupid way to market a product by confusing the hell out of people.

For sure other brands have. But our naming convention stems from the physical attributes of the headphones design. Triple Driver, Quad Driver, Dual Driver etc... All speak to physical design attributes. We don't want to confuse people with more complex naming conventions. We'll leave that to the DAP companies

While you're at it, I did feedback to your desk rep at CanJam Singapore that the ones demo'ed there were a little grainy when it came to vocals. That's with reference to bench headphones such as the HD650, Beyer T1gen2, Focal Clear which I demo'ed in succession prior to testing these cans.

@AudiophileAri I would also suggest doing something to make the pads replaceable. I like the pads and find them very comfortable but what happens when they deteriorate as all pads eventually do? I would hate to have to put them in the trash at that point. Afterall, these are not £12 headphones and should not be treated as disposible.

This is exactly why I always figure out how to replace the earpads on my headphones; even the ones that are "unreplaceable".

All pads wear out eventually. Necessity is the mother of invention.

I personally would not want to start taking them off and maybe ruin them until they wear out.

Have any of your projects ever ended in tears? LOL

BTW, I have the black gold version back on my head today. Nothing wrong with these at all. Very enjoyable. I have them attached to my desktop setup at the moment but yesterday I was using them with my Opus #1 dap.

Sure, failure comes with success. But failure is a good learning experience

Noted I'll pass the feedback to our engineering team.

I was looking at Tyll's measurements and discussion of the graphene tech, and most interesting thing that caught my eye is the effect on the impedance response and phase. Impedance response doesn't swing so much or perhaps can get to nearly flat? Phase response is pretty much nearly flat. Also, impulse response looks quite controlled, which leads me to think, the graphene driver is well damped and controlled, and fast.

The impedance response is quite interesting since it's a dynamic driver, and I usually see a bass hump with dynamic drivers, and don't see flat. Flat I generally see of planars. Graphene is really changing things for dynamic drivers.

Graphene sounds promising, and if it can get good linear bass with a single driver, that would be great. I'm thinking with such an impulse response like that, high frequencies should be well controlled and fast. Speed is quite important for high frequencies.

Although if I recall correctly these headphones don't have linear bass according to Tyll.

Indeed the bass reflector does seem to hype the bass on these. Much of the reason I’m so excited about GrapheneQ is because of those measurements. I’m really hoping ORA knocked it out of the park with their design.

Sorry to derail the 1more chat. I don’t have the triple over ears & if I didn’t have the Ora in order would buy them in a heartbeat. I absolutely love my Quad Driver set and put a good hour on them today. Even after I’ve had them for a year. 1more crushes the value proposition with sound quality, design, price and customer service across the entire product line.

Quite curious to see if they cook up some new workout IEMs in the future.

Awesome ! Thanks for the support. DM me your mailing address.

Sorry you feel this way but our product specs are no secret, if you read the descriptions you'll know which one you are getting - also the color difference between the two is a pretty clear sign of the differences. That's why we did that.

Best

You mean the gold EU versions also have graphene material now? Thought they gold ones all would be titanium still. Does it say on the box or how did you figure that out?

I sent a support query to US 1More site regarding the Graphene & tuned by Luca Bignardi version but only got an answer that I have to contact the 1More UK site and it doesn't even seem to have a general "info" email / form, only the ones for repairs and such so I'm doubtful I'd get a meaningful answer there.

Are the new Gold versions in EU now exactly the same as US, is it the exact same tuning & material? @AudiophileAri

No, the gold versions will never have the graphene drivers. It's more likely that they will eventually sell both versions - titanium color with graphene drivers and blakc and gold with titanium drivers.

So these really aren't over ear? Or just a really tight fitting? I have glasses and they just don't work with on ear headphones (Audeze Sine was just uncomfortable with them).

Anyone using glasses with these?

Our engineering team is still using the Asian ear sizes.to create the molds for the pads he certainly the slightly smaller size and on ear fit. I have been fighting this for 3 years but since their main market is China where there are 1.1 billion people it's been an uphill battle to say the least. I would say these are on ears for all intents and purposes. Thanks .

May I ask what thickness of the graphene driver is? Since graphene is naturally 2-dimensional materials, it should have multiple layers. So the thickness will be a critical parameter. What is the graphene deposition method? I think some of the enthusiasts will be interested to know.

Each layer is one atom thick .There are multiple layers. How many exactly is confidential.
