Just a note on those plots:
 

• The noise floor has been shifted down to -36db, the floor on most of my prior plots only went down to -30db.
• These are "open air" measurements which tend to exaggerate resonances with certain headphones. Similar measurements taken sealed (on a dummy head or ear coupling) would result in the resonance at 4k being about -25db down.
• No smoothing is applied to the plots

 
Nevermind.

My pair, which arrived Thursday, are serial # 26130**, and have foam behind the grills.
 
The plot is dated "4-2-12" which I thought meant April 2, but now I wonder if  Audeze is using day-month-year, in which case I might have gotten a "stale" pair.  
 
Arrgh.

They are a U.S. company and that is the (uniquely) American date format for April 2nd.

Maybe you should stop worrying about date and start enjoying music if nothing is the problem with the headphones.

What do other countries use?  I use year-month-day personally so that it lines up in the right order on a computer.

Most other countries use day, month, year.

You're kidding right? Try some fluid mechanics calculations in Imperial and you end up with slugs/ft. WTH is a slug?

 
How many centimeters in a meter...100, how many millimeters in a meter...1000.
 
How many inches in a yard? Beats me?

Nobody uses imperial for physics, but Fahrenheit is more precise than Celsius.

I find your lack of faith in Imperial units disturbing.

Yes, but a Celsius degree is the same 'size' as a degree Kelvin. :O

Umm I don't agree with you here. 0'C is easy...water freezes at that temp (at 1 atm) and water boils at 100'C (not the obscure 212'F

). And again, going back to units calculations for say chemical reaction rates as they relate to reactor design...this Chemical Engineer is going with Celsius every time.

 
However being a professional engineer (in Canada) with many American customers, one does have to be able to move between both Imperial and Metric. Though there is no doubt which system is better and cleaner.

Pretty much nobody actually uses imperial units for physics here.  Metric is great for physics and that's pretty much what it was made for but imperial units relate to normal everyday things better.  That's how they were defined in the first place.
