[Elecraft] RES: Yamaha CM500

[ab2tc]

Hello again,

I am not talking about anything above 2700Hz at all. With my receive
bandpass set to 300-2700Hz the CM-500 sound definitely muffled compared to
any other headphones I have. Yes, I could compensate with the EQ, but then
it would be unuseable with any other headphones I have since there is no
macro support to quickly change the RX EQ settings quickly. Until that
happens the CM-500 stays shelved in my shack.
