hmmm how is it that the monk plus is rated so highly on the EA Facebook group. The ME80 has like 7 votes compared to 36 (Monk plus). I don't understand. I'm so confused...

Aren't Monk plus sold at about 3 dollars?
If so, that may explain...

Please let me know how it turns out. I'm thinking of compiling autoeq and peq files for a bunch of popular buds.
hi,
how to create custom wavelet autoeq?
I've tried to manually edit the eq text file,
but it failed to import to wavelet,
when I restore the original eq file,
it successfully imported.

@Sam L have you considered changing the vertical scale on your graphs from 70db to 50db? Makes it easier to read imo.
K. Will do. I didn't really give it much thought. Just captured graphs as the appeared on my desktop. But I should consider how users here would read them. Thanks for the feedback. Really appreciate it.

After you import it, you have to go back and search for the file you just imported. It will then appear on your pick list to use

2nd. Looks like you went a little closer to 40db, which looks a little exaggerated.

There is a limit setting button that opens a settings box you can set the scale at for x & y axis. I also try and put the FR towards the center and don't worry if the upper treble (10k+) drops off the graph.

first one was 25 db/decade. second was 50 db/decade

I'll prob just stay with "as plotted" and manually size it before capture:

Yeah, actually the rw-9 sounds pretty v-shaped for a bud. The bass on the rw-9 can hit hard. It's a bit much for my tastes.
Can confirm. RW-9 does bass. You can never have too much bass.

I only have experience with the DQSM Turandot and that is a dissapointment and I really hope the other buds at that price range is better.
I didn't really like Turandot either, I sold them. But my friends liked it, but they don't listen to heavy music.

I'm going to grab the ME80 despite fit issues. Perhaps the EB2 and the X6 too.

The EB2, this choice is a good choice because it has a good reputation for sound and its size is small enough to fit.

Next is the X6. The sound is the same as the Vido, so you might as well save your money and replace it with the FENGRU DIY EMX500 which has wide sound stage. (But I don't know if the both MX500 shells are suitable for it.)

Finally, the ME80, but you may not be able to buy it, in which case you should go with the FENGRU DIY PK2 which has 16.2mm shell. Your other candidate, the NICEHCK DIY MX500 PK1, which I used to have and it didn't sound very good.

K, guys. I'm going to start generating test targets for wavelet and peace/apo equalizer.

So far, I know of these users who use wavelet and might be interested in trying out some target curves?
- @waynes world (monk lite 120ohm)
- @Nool (rambo 2)
- @sub30 (monk lite 120)

Anyone else interested?
