Hello.
That's very true but unfortunately people are going to judge by measurements made by other people anyway, like Tyll from innerfidelity or that guy from superbestaudiofriends. Many people now are very excited about measurements (too much, in my opinion) and many think that just by looking at them they know how the headphones are going to sound. So, maybe, it's not a such bad idea to provide people with the measurement made as correctly as possible by you, not some amateur from superbestaudiofriends forum. Just my opinion, maybe I'm wrong.

me myself not really care into measurement, those numbers not really tell everything about the sound anyway, i also not learning acoustic engineering so that number practically useless for me, one thing i know for sure real life environment and laboratory conditioned environment rarely similar

talking about measurement of mysphere 3.1

Hello ruhenheiM,

Fully agree with your statement and I allow to interpret:
"The best and only judgement is the human ear".
At least this is the way how we at LB-acoustics act developing Mysphere headphones.
However, Finally measurements are important also, as I see this as the only and best way to guarantee contentious acoustic performance over the production.
And last but not least, so see very good differences- to interpret it, that's the daily work by well experienced engineers.

Best regards,
heinz

yes, fully agreed with that.i think measurement more useful for the designer/engineer of the acoustic. basically you guys set the goal about the product, measurement help to keep you in line. i think it was andrew jones who said if the speaker measured well but sounds bad then there's must be something wrong with the measurement... and when the development of the product is done and start going to the production, that measurement help to maintain the quality control. as i stated me as customer without any acoustic engineering knowledge, that measurement simply useless for me

i wonder though with the nature of this float frame, what's the right way to measure it? conventional headphone design basically has the ear pad to condition the listening. getting the right fit for measurement wouldn't be a problem, but this is fully open and hover around the ears also the angle could be adjust. getting the right fit would be very hard and is there any right fit to wearing this headphone?

To answer this very important question is not as easy as it should be.
I believe strongly into well experienced listeners. Those can judge the correct sound and image to become similar to the original recording (according their imagination) depending on the positioning of the driver relative to the ear.
Less trained persons (and I count myself to that one) just use a gliding sinus tone over 3 sec. repeating and adjust the hovering drivers so, that the sound pressure impression is just the same for all frequencies. When ready, just to note or remember the marked potions left and right (there are scales on the head-bow relative to the driver lever).
This position is the best one for the most recordings. The angel to the ear is not so critical as it influence the lover bass level mainly and only.

i see. so there is the base sound listener need to go after, once listener reach that, they could adjust the bass level. my previous thought was the sound would be highly customize based on the fit. i have mb quart 85, it utilize the jecklin float design and the sound pretty much just like that no matter how the fit are

btw mr. renner i read the journal analogsurviver wrote, shortly after you designed akg k 1000 you left akg. were you there when they released different batch of k1000? there were k1000 bass lite and bass heavy. were you supervise that?

will it be possible to adjust the headband width and the distance of the arm holding the driver to the skull? in the video it looks like the front part of the driver/cushions will always have contact to the head. i'm looking for a complete floating driver design. does the mysphere allow this operation mode or can i stop waiting and go for a used k 1000?

If you do not like that the front part of the driver touch the ear (even it's recommended soundwise) you can wear the headband a little on different position... It will push the driver farer from ear.

What the good news! Successor of legendary AKG K1000, designed by Legend - Herr Heinz
Can I ask few questions?
1.It looks that MySphere using unconventional rectangular drivers. Why you chose such form?
2.Modular design and 3.1 means - in future we can expect easy upgrades?
3.If I will order (I am near to pull trigger :) ) when I need to pay and can expect delivery?
4.Is it possible to order option with autograph of Legend - Herr Heinz? :)

Hello,
Thanks for lot of compliments, :)
Add 1): the rectangular membrane shape is to get most linearity at extreme large excursion. The specific driver realise 4mm... No other driver in that size realize that.
Add 2): the modular design is to enable:
a) easy customization of cushions
b) simple service if needed
c) disassembly ease for transportation
Add 3): when purchasing, the product will be made according to the specific order. Final payment (money flow) will be done after delivery.
Add 4): no idea where to place my autograph.. :) If you like... I can do in the Quick Reference Guide which will be in the package.
Warm regards,
Heinz
