More on the Knowles Preferred Listening Response Curve
The Knowles Preferred Listening Response Curve was developed through blind listening testing, including an analysis of 200 recordings from the last 20 years of Billboard Hot 100. Knowles developed its curve to provide guidance to headphone manufacturers in developing products that consumers prefer. Knowles’ research provides clear guidelines for what consumers desire across the wide spectrum of music. According to the research behind the Knowles Curve, listeners consistently preferred between 12 and 21 dB of boost at frequencies beyond 10 kHz, depending on age and hearing ability. An earphone that matches the Knowles Curve recommendations is expected to provide a highly satisfying experience for the end user, resulting in higher sound quality ratings.
The high frequency boost in treble is very difficult to accommodate using single driver products, which is the reason the JLab Epic Lab Edition uses a 10mm driver together with a Knowles Balance Armature driver in each earbud.
