I've measured the PRIRs and HPEQ of two separate users... Here are the results.Just to repeat: my measured 2.15 PRIR and HPEQ sounds perfect on my June 2023 hardware. Any non-2.15 HPEQ, such as the factory files or one I've gotten from @Litlgi74, results in the sound shifted to the right when played with this 2.15 PRIR. Non-2.15 PRIRs, such as the factory files or ones I've purchased, played with my 2.15 HPEQ, again sound shifted. Non-2.15 PRIRs played with non-2.15 HPEQs sound fine.
I've uploaded my PRIR and an HPEQ to the Google drive (section 4, folder zdjh22). It would be great if someone running 2.12 could try both together, as if I recall correctly 2.15 PRIRs with pre-2.15 HPEQs on pre-2.15 firmware have also sounded shifted to other users on hardware that can run pre-2.15. And, if someone could be so kind, please report back using my 2.15 PRIR with a non-2.15 HPEQ that you have measured.
If you can't access the Google drive, let me know and I can post a Dropbox link. I've shared that link already with @Litlgi74.
zdjh22's Center Channel (flat HPEQ): Left vs Right binaural mic (new hardware FW 2.15)
zdjh22's Auto HPEQ (without PRIR): Left vs Right binaural mic (new hardware FW 2.15)
Another Users Center Channel (flat HPEQ): Left vs Right binaural mic (old hardware FW 2.15)
The problem seems to be with FW 2.15..., The Smyths now have the PRIRs to investigate the problem.
I think it goes without saying... if you want to create a PRIR or HPEQ... you should probably only do so with FW 2.12 or earlier.
