Not to mention that your arguments are plain wrong.
I took virtually everything that was needed for understanding how the headphones work from the Indiegogo page. For example, that they use Wave NX is one of the first things written there.
DSP is NOT the wholy grail and it's only able to achieve good results if it doesn't need to fight against physical attributes too much. Like in this case where we have a planar driver in an insulated yet vented case. But again:you will not have the same quality of bass in some 20$ dsp headphones with dynamic drivers even if you try.
And btw. Mobius seems to be Very comfortable. Just going off of first impressions.
Your wholy knowledge base is pretry flawed and the way you write and spam this forum is kinda obnoxious. Especially when you just didn't take the time to read the god damn indiegogo page as well as linked pages but somehow find the time again to write essays on this thread.
Not to mention that you are the worst kind of "fallen for the marketing" while at the same time you pitty others for your own failings.
You’re mostly right. However saying $20 or $200 doesn’t really matter. It just comes down to the design of the drive unit at any price. It is possible for a $20 driver to have better specs than a $200 driver. This is especially if it meant to be sold in large numbers and the R&D/tooling costs can be amortized across large numbers of units.
Yes DSP cannot correct everything - at least not yet - it comes down to implementation. It is one of those things you want for to be minimally involved. This is especially true with loudspeaker drivers. Where we are dealing with much larger mass and and power. In fact you are better off treating the room as best as you can and minimize the DSP involvement. It all comes down to a cost benefit analysis. For bass especially it might costs thousands to treat the room and that is where DSP would shine.
You have every right to “hate on” me. But I’ve learned to approach every new product with a sense of healthy skepticism. I’ve been burned by many products that were the next big thing on here. Getting to the bottom of what i’m paying for is more important than “likes”. Likes are easy to get - just agree with the crowd.
Guess what? At the end we have a very well written, cogent response from KMann which is much appreciated.
