Well, like I said you already need to take it with a grain of salt because the typical coupler resonance peak present on IEC711 couplers at ~8-10K is also not matched due to different insertion depths. I've matched both graphs manually at 1K on REW for a better reading/comparison but you can just get the same result comparing the amplitude relative to bass and pinna looking at the originals, so not a big deal.

Regarding volume, the WPD extract the same volume that has been shown on graphs, if you don't have a clue how it works, here's a nice tutorial on how to "grab" a graph from a picture: https://medium.com/@jaakkopasanen/make-your-headphones-sound-supreme-1cbd567832a9 (ctrl + F "Numbers From the Graph"). In the end, it's just a graph from a unique source, it could be a lemon unit or something else. I'll wait for more sources/reviews to confirm that's just basically the same NM2+ tuning with very minor changes, so at least for me no point in buying a "twin".
We are on the same boat. I think if you look at the descriptions of the "new" driver in the NA2+, they are exactly the same as those for the NM2+: same material, same structure, etc.

From my own modding experience, these can be easily achieved using different filters.

I have NF Audio NA2. I want to replace the stock cable with another cable, but I have one condition: I need a cable with the L-shaped connector. Can somebody recommend me please a good but not very expensive cable (less than $25)?

can't beat the value and diameter of these two but only 3.5mm jack available:

If you need customized " L "connector" go to XINHS in Aliexpress choose your cable and put in message note " L" connector☺️

Thank you, but the straight (not L-shaped) jack is exactly what I try to avoid.

The player (iBasso DX90) with such a straight jack is too long for my pocket, and I have to bend the cable (right after the jack and the stress relief) under a sharp angle. I am afraid when a cable is bent like this too many times, it will not last long.

Ok, thanks. I am looking at this 24-core cable.
I also found this 16-core cable.

Is it better to prefer 24 cores over 16? Or is it going to be too heavy?

opps sorry I thought you mean those L shape connectors at the earphone ends.

I have read good things about the 24-core cable and have no idea about the 16-core one. Comments being having "boosted resolution". I think core count does affect the sound but it can be good or it can be bad and can be just a matter of preference at the end of the day.

You can always get a quality straight to L-shape adapter by the way.

4 or 8 cores is my preference. If you choose 16 or 24 cores the weight goes to the housing jackets with thinner conductors.

The chances of all those cores being fully soldered is very low....

But IF they truly are fully soldered, then having more cores (of the same wire at least) will give a lower resistance, which is better usually.

4 or 8 cores is the sweet spot for quality though.

After a week and over 100 hours of play time, the NA2+ has one of the best balance of timbre and technicality I've ever heard from a DD!

The balanced black silicone ear tips won my heart!!!

My review will be up in a little over a week later...please enjoy my PIC's!
