I've got a few more questions now:
Quote:
Do you mean that all all-pass filters cause large phase shifts, but only in multi-driver headphones? What about an L-R filter, which I've read behaves like an all-pass?
Quote:
I looked at the phase response vs impedance on InnerFidelity for the 120 Ohm DT 48 E (http://www.innerfidelity.com/images/BeyerdynamicDT48E120Ohm.pdf) and it looks about as flat as I've ever seen on a headphone graph. Am I understanding the graph incorrectly?

Finally, I don't think my question a while back was addressed; it got lost at the end of page 3!

Additionally, they used all-pass filters that cause huge phase shifts. Not something that would happen in a single driver headphone.

The only headphone (with measurements available) that I think could have problems with phase is the DT 48 E, but the magnitude response is a much, much greater problem and there's no question about the audibility.

Isn't IMD related to THD? I mean, isn't there a way to estimate (if not directly measure) the IMD based on a THD graph? If not, how does one measure it and what are the sonic clues that we can use to pinpoint it audibly?
