Hi Steve, Good suggestions. My NS10s have given up the ghost - I had them since 1998. I also loved them and couldn't see why everyone was always moaning about them. Im a Genelec guy too now - I love the GLM calibration. I have an old pair of Kefs too which sound lovely - anyway I digress - cheers!

Good loudspeakers for stereo do not have the same response curve as a monospeaker, as the sum of the 2 stereo speakers need to produce the stereo image that should have a linear psycho acoustic frequency response. Den tor 25 juni 2020 11:34Augustine Leudar skrev: > That's nice to hear seeing as

That's nice to hear seeing as that is what I am using and they are very accurate measuring very flat and fast spectral decay at all frequencies more neutral than the HD650 or HD800. They are certainly my first choice of headphones for mixing normal audio. However I guess the requirements of bin

The spatial reproduction of localization cues as they are used in common perception tests is only one aspect when it comes to the question of how well headphones are able to represent 3-dimensional spatiality. From my point of view it is even more important how headphones are able to reproduce
