Just because x headphones look relatively flat through a given filter or to a given measurement rig, doesn't mean they're universally perceived as such is something that should be on a sticky somewhere around here
That's roughly what Koenig speculated - the off-set is meant to provide improved spatial presentation, but the side-effect is that there's apparently a not insubstantial group of the population (I think they found something like 30-40% of their test population) that will not "jive" with the setup. And they demonstrate one of the biggest problems of measurements-as-truth - just because they look "relatively flat" through a given filter or to a given measurement rig, doesn't mean they're universally perceived as such.
