Gents, it seems I'm in the middle of a rock(et) and a hard place. The GR07BE sound more powerful all round down low but the Rockets are close enough now that the ranking will change. Would I rather have Tenores less clear but more prominent bass, or more clarity but less prominence?
The Rockets sub bass is now high enough where I don't know the answer to this question. I would really have to A/B them and even then... I feel I could provably go both ways. Hell, I'm A/B'ing the Rockets/BE and having a hard ass time.
Therefor, the ranking would have to go:
Bass:
GR07BE>=Tenore=Rockets>KC06...
But hold your nekos. Nya? Yes! Nya!
GR07BE still not surpassed?
Listening to the song I posted, as well as others like the one below, leaves me once again wanting my GR07BE's low end prowess to at least be matched(quality and quantity). This must happen before I hand off the burning NekomimiGlobeofAwesome™ to another phone within the criteria for phone number one. It Must!
The GR07BE simply has a thicker? output down low that gives it the perfect amount of growl for my taste, run neko RUN! However! The edge of the bass thump is exquisite, a GR07 BE match and so a Tenore slaughter duo there. The presence of rumble is a touch(touch) too low given the rest of the sound sig. Presence aside, I find it just as well textured as my GR07 BE. RealTalk™ hombres.
Simple brake down:
GR07BE's have superb quality/quantity, Tenore's have good quality and superb quantity, Rockets have superb quality and good quantity.
Scale:
Superb(AKA RainbowNeko)
Good
Adequate
Poor
Horrible(AKA DeadNeko)
For phone number 1, I look for sub and mid-bass that's perceived about equal, or higher sub-bass. All while positioning it up a touch from neutral. Whatever GR07 BE's do... Basically that.
Phone number two would basically add "PAwaR!" to the above requirements. What is transcending and how much do I need? All of it and then some, that's how much.
I would also include the rockets in the list of phones I would lean towards. Yes, they were that close and bass is that important to me. Come at me brotherin.
Interesting snippet:
Normally I would go 5 down from max for music where I want to enjoy the low end specifically. I now find myself comfortably settling at 6 down for the Rockets. I don't know what the db difference is but I thought you guys might find this useful. I would still want to hit 5 down to better match my BE but given the rest of the signature is also being raised, 6 is good.
Also, I've been known to hit treble reducer on my iPhone and upping the volume in a attempt to get phone number 2 bass out of phone number 1. I shouldn't say try, the GR07 BE handles it fantastically. Sometimes leading me to say ASG who? Dam strait son... Dam strait. Come at me Eke.
All else stays the same as far as I can tell but I've been focusing primarily on the low end. I have limited time at the moment but missed some sleep to get this out, who needs sleep right.
Nothing like sitting in you room at 3AM, staring at the wall while wondering what it is you're doing with your life. Or pondering why the celling is textured, doesn't that just make it more prone to collecting dust, silly people...
Anywho, now I feel like using small triple flanges for everything and probing my brain. The chance of hitting my eardrum is zero... Right?
New AudoSigGen numbers:
At 6 down, starts around 17Hz, goes up to about 1320Hz followed by a small dip, stars climbing again around 2100Hz until it hits ~3100Hz, runs about flat till it begins climbing again around 3200Hz, reaches the apex of the peak around 5300Hz, begins falling till a small bump around 7900Hz, hard to tell if its going up and down a bit or staying even before it begins falling again, can hear noise up till about 19460Hz.
5300Hz is the loudest part of the sweep. 7900Hz is about even with 120Hz.
Keep in mind the noise around me is not always the same when I try this app out.
Btw, pulling the rockets out after inserting them deeply is fun. /s
I was going to design a UnitySealofApproval™ graphic on my phone for the three BadAsses™ but I'll get it done at a latter time.
Days free is over and sleep shall fall upon my face.
Good
Night
