Not to disrespect or impune ohotonge, but there are always uncertainties in measurements. Even with accurate measurements, there are a zillion ways to compute and present FFTs from time-domain data. Check out those headphone measurements common to both seeko.co.kr and innerfidelity. There are some significant differences, particularly in the higher-frequency resonance peaks that cannot, IMHO, be purely attributed to the use of 24th octave-band bin averaging. They can't both be right. These graphs might be good, but there's no way of knowing that just by looking at them.
Forget the graphs. The issue is every reviewer both on Head-Fi and in the audio press has described the KSE1500 as neutral or richly neutral. Then along comes one measurement that makes the KSE1500 look like the JH Roxanne and we immediately discount all the reviews to the benefit of one graph. The way I see it either all the reviewers are deaf or the graph for whatever reason is flawed.
