Over 150 people attended the Listen, Inc./G.R.A.S. headphone seminar in Seoul on Tuesday March 6th, where Steve Temme, Peter Wulf-Andersen, Dr. Sean Olive and Prof. Lee spoke to a packed room about headphone measurement, perception and design and tuning. It was a great event and exciting to meet so many of Korea’s top audio design engineers. Thank you for coming! And of course a huge thank you to our very special guest speakers, Dr. Olive and Prof. Lee.
Videos of the event (in English and Korean) can be viewed using the links below (videos will open in a new tab).
Due to popular demand, we are now holding our headphone testing seminar in Tokyo!
Learn about the latest in headphone test systems and methods from design to EOL Test. Industry experts Steve Temme (Listen, Inc.) and Peter Wulf-Andersen (G.R.A.S.), as well as guest speaker Dr. Sean Olive (Harman International) will discuss test equipment (ear couplers, test fixtures, test software and hardware) and demonstrate practical test setups for both R&D and QC headphone testing. It will cover in-ear monitors, Bluetooth, lightning/USB, noise-cancelling and high resolution headphones, in addition to conventional analog headphones. You can even measure your own headphone using our equipment in the hands-on session. Please see the full agenda below.
There is no charge for this one-day seminar. Lunch will be provided. Space is limited, so please RSVP today.

Agenda (10am-4pm)
Introduction
Overview of Headphone Test Systems and tools
Traditional tools vs. modern consumer demands
Introduction to head and ear related terminology and definitions.
Historical perspective and background for the tools and standards used today.
Limitations vs. Possibilities in term of the measurement capabilities. How does that relate to the modern challenges with Bluetooth and ANC related testing tasks?
Tools for Next Generation Headphone Testing
Solutions to some the challenges addressed above.
Examples based on products and measurements.
What about frequencies above 20kHz? Science or marketing? Measurement Consistency – Development vs. Production
Progress in measurements from Head and Torso Simulator (KEMAR) to Production Test Fixture (45CC – flat plate). How the different components affect the measurements:
Software and hardware for headphone testing including typical headphone measurements and test setups
Standards including Max SPL EN-50332 & IEC-60268-7
Headphone Design: Perception and Measurement of Headphones – What is the Preferred Target Response? (Guest Speaker: Dr. Sean Olive, Harman International)
Hands-on testing: Bring your own device and test it using one of our measurement setups
