Hello people, this has been something which has been bothering me ever since I have started using personal music systems many years ago
I like to listen to bass-heavy music, and I find it extremely uncomfortable when I can hear that one of the channels gives out more bass than the other, it is a slightly nauseating experience... For instance, on my current pair of Etymotic ER3XR's , I have managed to detect it with a desktop mic: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/if-...-thread-for-you.538615/page-932#post-15121217 , and for sure it is not a problem with my own hearing... I used to own ER-4 earphones which come with Etymotic's matching, but the matching only goes down to 100hz, and I have had similar bass mismatch experiences with those
Are there headphones or earphones out there which match down into the bass region? Or is this a problem which it seems only I am bothered about?
