It really helps to understand what it is you're looking at.
If you're getting this information from the Universe I think you're getting it from, there's a standardized compensation curve which is now applied to the measurements which will make the graphs look different than non-compensated graphs.
Yes, two rigs will measure a little differently, but having one graph slope up while another slopes down in this case does not indicate a different FR response. In this case, the "HD650 love and appreciation" thread measurements were taken before the compensation curve was finalized. To my knowledge, anyway.
The implication and/or insinuation that Zach's headphone sounds wildly different from one pair to another is frankly just wrong. I've heard 7 or 8 Auteurs between Friends, loaners, RMAF demos, my own pair, and mini meets to tell you with certainty that beyond the slight differences each wood brings that one Auteur sounds like any other Auteur.
I understand that point.
But in the Auteur measurement thread #30 measured by a different person also shows the similar point, although I don't know how reliable that measurement is.
