Hello everyone.
I have recently purchased a pair of IE8s and I was wondering if y'all could clarify a couple things for me.
I am a firm believer in the physical burn in and mental burn in but I am not sure on how this is usually performed with the IE8. I realize there has been numerous posts on this topic with tons of different opinions but after searching for a good couple of days and looking through the shear number of threads with 20+ pages of comments I am growing discouraged that I will find an answer to my specific inquiry as all I have found so far is tidbits touching on this matter.
My questions are as follows:
1) Is the source music/noise significant in how the headphones will sound once finished?
+ ie - would bassy music bring out more bass? is this ridiculous to ask?
+ please point me to a thread with explanations of white/pink noise and freq sweep if you can recall one.
2) What should the bass dial be set to???
+ will this affect the outcome? Am I crazy?
+ If so how would it change?
Please help,
I am very excited about these headphones as I have tried most of the prominent earphones in this price range except the W3 (se535, miles davis, triple.fi10) and I have found my favorite iem. Now if I could just figure out the best way to burn in I will be a happy camper.
Thanks.
