Mest Mk1 vs Mest Mk2 Comparison: Upgrade or Sidegrade? | Sound Demo

I swear these are different recordings lol.
Disclaimer: Capturing audio through a coupler do not accurately reflect the actual sound. Multiple factors such as coupler resonance, seal, background noise, compression, playback device and more will affect how they sound in this recording. This coupler has some trouble capturing higher frequencies, so the treble and overall "clarity" between the two is misrepresented. To accurately present higher frequencies in this recording, a high pass filter was applied to the whole video.
Recorded on a IEC711 coupler “type E610A”: www.aliexpress...
Recording using Audacity, edited on DaVinci Resolve.
Device used is an iBasso dx320 on 16 bit 44.1kHz.
All iems have a minor treble boost and subbass boost to simulate standard silicone tips. Identical foam tips were used in the recording. Volume was matched using a spl meter and a white noise mp3 file.
