first let's forget about the coloration from source, IC, AMP, HD, let's say the pure "duplicate" of the original sound is considered as "perfect" SQ. there is one way to perfectly measure SQ:
1. take a dummy head, install Hi-End microphone in it, like the ones recording studio used to record concert.
2. insert your IEM, put on your full-size HD or whatever HD on this dummy head.
3. play the source, use mic in the dummy head to record, convert the recorded sound into wave form
4. rip the origin CD into wave form
5. most important step, figuring out alogirithm to compare the two wave forms and find percentage of difference.
The lower the percentage is, the better the signal chain is.
Isn't that right?
