Measurements Hifiman Arya
Contents
When we connect the Hifiman to our Illusonic measuring setup with Harriëtte, we see excellent results. The response is extremely straight. (Note that you should read these graphs above according to the Harman response curve for headphones; headphones never measure linear because we are dealing with a compensation curve for the ear). Hifiman follows the harman curve almost perfectly, which should result in a flat response.
Distortion is extremely low. And right away. The only thing we notice is the peak at the end. There is a resonance point around 18 kHz – 20 kHz. Now that seems dramatic, but know that this ‘peak’ is still around 0.12%. In short: Hifiman really did a great job.
Pulse behaviour is fast, but we do see a very small afterglow. (Probably because our pre-amp has some trouble with these spicy headphones).
