Interesting that if you take the K701 graph and numerically sum it to the ear sensivitiy chart you posted, you would actually come up with a pretty flat line except for the lowest of bass frequencies.
The human ear chart shows sensitivity emphasis in the mids which is compensated by the droop in the K701 mids
The human ear chart shows a sensitivity droop in the mid treble which is compensated by the spike in the K701 mid treble.
The human ear chart shows a sensitivity emphasis in the upper treble which is ompensated by the droop in the K701 upper treble.
This could explain why so many people think the K701 is the most neutral of many cans they've heard in the midrange and upwards.
If you did the same thing with the HD650, you'll find that the upper treble is rolled off.
As far as this chart is concerned given this ear chart, I'm not surprised at all at this graph, I find the K701 sounds almost exactly like what the chart shows.
