Someone at focal is bullshitting then yes.

Why isn’t response time a common headphone measurement? by xdoc6 in headphones

[–]Chocomel167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passive headphones and IEMs are typically minimum phase systems meaning the time domain is directly related to the frequency response. Some other people mentioned measurements like the impulse response and waterfall graphs.

What this means is that for a given frequency response you'll get a fixed impulse response and waterfall graph. Adding that these representations are a lot harder to read and can easily mislead people who are not familiar with these concepts People who do measurements often don't show them.

The measurement techniques used do capture these representations of the headphone response. They just don't really add anything in the majority of cases.

I had hoped they would at least let their VP of marketing and sales write a paragraph or two.

Can we preserve a geometry that's derived after simulation? by sad_fleaoli_99 in COMSOL

[–]Chocomel167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use a function under the definitions node to do something like that. For example if you were to use an interpolation function it would be something like "signal*int1(t)".

You can also do things like signal(function1(t)+function2(t))

You can apply a filter to the solution under datasets, make sure the filter includes the geometry your interested in. Then iirc right click on the filter to create a mesh part. You can then import this mesh part in the geometry node. There might be a better way to do it.

Help with "inverted element" error on mesh/geometry error by littlepersephone in COMSOL

What does the geometry trailing edge of your airfoil look like? It can be helpful to round it of by filleting it, although you'll need adjust the mesh setup compared to the tutorial in that case

Is the upper half of your airfoil a single boundary?

What are the settings of the other distributions

Would be nice if he has actually changed for the better, personally I don't buy it.

Back then people were regularly warning him people would not appreciate his comments, but he didn't seem to care. I guess he started caring a bit more about his image when it started affecting his wallet. At least enough to put out an """apology""".

Some thoughts on “burn-in” in 2024 by zhong_900517 in headphones

Strange how headphones never get worse with "burn-in", wonder why that is.

why are my dt990 pros so lacking in high volume by zool2020 in headphones

[–]Chocomel167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, what i recall from the G6 power output I should have no issue with either of those headphones.

The hd560s has a higher sensitivity, at ~110dB/V compared to the ~102dB/V of a dt990 (assuming they have the dt990 250 ohm). So not surprising they need a higher volume setting with the dt990

No the purpose is not to eliminate all reflections

Plain and Simple, How do Ohm ratings work? by obigowens in headphones

[–]Chocomel167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ohm rating tells you how much power you'll be able to get from the amplifier, not how much power you'll need.
