I wonder how the ceramic coating holds up to being bent. When the video of the adjustment was uploaded, I think it was black anodised aluminium. Ceramic is not known for its flexibility...

Interesting, I guess users of the new model who have done some frame work on the new TC models would have posted about it by now and possibly Joe would have posted a warning of some sort. I've had no problem with my Phi with the black aluminum.

I doubt there would be a problem with bending. Joe would have come out with a statement when you buy them not to bend them.

Where can I see a frequency graph for the TC? I want to try some equalizing..

Wow. That looks extraordinarily similar to the LCD-4 graph, yet everyone complains about the LCD-4 Treble and you don't hear any complaints about the TC.

Am I mistaken????

I would take these with a grain of salt. These are from the OG Abyss. The Abyss is also very fit dependent and the frequency response can change drastically with positioning and fit. I don't hear the treble and uper mid dip that is present in The graph.

This is not a graph from the TC. This is the original Abyss.

I have not seen any graphs for the TC. I personally have not find the need to eq the TC. I am really enjoying them with the Bartok in the signal path. It has a more natural yet detailed presentation that the TT2 had.

That doesn't really answer his question. I'd love to see a more recent graph too

I really think that this headphone would be difficult to get a measurement on that is definitive. Like I said if you change the fit of the Abyss the frequency response can change drastically.

This may be the first (and last) report of this- but I hear a very similar dip in the upper mids and treble as I do in the LCD-4.

No question- noticeably less severe- but the treble region is undoubtably dipped IMHO.

When I use the parametric equalizer settings I have for LCD-4 and apply them to the Abyss with just a few modifications- the Abyss sounds much better.... Really opens up.

That is for the 1255 OG...not the Phi or Phi TC FWIW.

this actually is the most relevant comment on the subject.
