@hawaiibadboy should be answering these questions. Itās his IEM.
Graphene is a form of carbon in a two-dimensional, one atom thick film. It is the basic structural element among other allotropes, including charcoal, graphite, and carbon nanotubes. Graphene is 200 times stronger than the high-strength (high-carbon) steel and it efficiently conducts heat and the electricity. Carbon materials usually have excellent acoustical properties. The graphene drivers are very thin and light and come with a small spring constant, so that the air itself damps the motion. The damped air in graphene converts almost all the energy into sound and is therefore potentially very efficient. Graphene diaphragm is very strong and thin and requires no or little external damping.
Graphene material is known for its highly conductive strong, and thin, and lightweight properties. Graphene is an ideal material for speaker diaphragms as it is amazingly strong and can be extremely thin and light weight. It is also relatively expensive. Graphene is stronger than steel and thinner than a paper and is best at electricity with the electrodes moving at a speed of 1/300 of lightspeed. The lightweight property allows it to move rapidly and act sensitively. The strong property of graphene keeps it unbreakable and unchangeable. A thin graphene of 100nm can bear a load of up to 2 tons. It can also hold its shape in motions and vibrations.
Wow wow wow! Such a comprehensive explanation on the material used. Definitely expanded my knowledge by a slight bit . And yeah probably best and fair for BGGAR to have a say on the IEM he tuned .
Once again, thank you all for the thorough explanation .
Thanks for helping folks. I will come in on Sunday and try and help folks out.
I have been intentionally trying not to chirp too much.
I want owners to determine the narrative on their own
Graphene was chosen by dumb luck.
Berry had a haze (tried a coated not pure berry) that is barely perceptible but was there (mid bass)
Driver that was in OG 03 ( sounded just like 03 and taught me that trying to pull out extension creates a loss in note weight I was not going to accept)
2 other drivers of unclear material (have to go way back in DM to confirm)
Hard this driver in another unreleased set and immediately heard it. The clarity with slightly more mid bass but pulling it in 2dB preserved the ideal repla but kept slam. Also that notch is critical for the extended type replay I was going for.
It was built around a library and instruments. It was a fucking joy.
Iāll be in to answer specific stuff but not much else.
Thank you @Resolution and @nymz for an enormous amount of help with the community
I love this forum @Ohmboy Keep doing your thing. Best Mod in the biz.
Judging by this graph you sent me @nymz and the MH1 vs MH750 graphs out there, the Mele would have too much upper midrange to mid-treble, too much treble and also too little midrange to upper bass, according to my tastes⦠Bummerā¦
Yeah, the only thing close to mh1 is mh750/755. And those too are really close. But Hana which resembles the Mele is already hotter than 750/755. So Mele would be too hot for me up up there and to shy between 100-800hzā¦
Thank you for shedding more development light on how Mele came to be. I for one am facinated and would love to hear more if you ever care to share more.
I am thinking I should just wait for Oluv (from Oluvās gadgets), with whom our ears agree on lots as it seems) to finally find something as closely tuned to the MH1 as possible⦠š®āšØ
