Passing truck
The engine and rolling noises of the tires merge into a relatively broadband work of art that is quite bass-heavy. However, the upper ranges of the spectrum are also important for the rolling noises, otherwise every road surface quickly turns into a musty sand dune.
Tracked vehicle (tank) passing by
In contrast to the muffled truck, something really happens here! In addition to the engine noise, it is above all the tracks whose typical and very complex noise challenges the playback devices. Different frequency ranges are also used to a greater extent here, so that their detailed reproduction is particularly important.
Passing jet plane
Nice to see: the so-called Doppler effect when a jet flies by! Here, engine and air noises combine to create an interesting potpourri.
Stationary hovering helicopter
We already had a helicopter flying by at the beginning, here is the version hovering above our heads. The broadband or high-frequency rotor and demolition noises of the air are again the most striking here, with the engine providing the very bass-heavy background.
Complex situation: jungle noises with screaming animals
We have already analyzed the human voice, here is a jungle situation with screaming four-legged contemporaries, which (very complex) mainly spread in the mid and high frequencies.
Complex situation: battlefield with machine gun fire, detonations and tracked vehicles
That’s just noise – or is it? If you play this material into lower or higher quality headsets, you will open your eyes at the really good ones if you are only used to cheap acoustic mud. This is exactly where what I wrote on the second page about resolution and detailed reproduction comes into play.
Only the best (and above all level-resistant) drivers can cope well with such a complex accumulation of acoustic events. Hearing individual sound sources and locating them spatially is the high school of headphone reproduction and is solely down to the quality of the drivers. All the Dolby stuff is of little help here without the right substructure, quite the opposite.
Complex situation: Shaft field with a squadron of airplanes flying overhead
Not just one jet, but several complete the battlefield. Otherwise, the same applies as just mentioned: the best headphones are just good enough!
Interim conclusion
Perfect resolution, detailed reproduction of the frequency spectrum and high level stability are particularly important in complex situations. The subsequent influencing of individual frequency ranges by the headset also makes the spatial localization of so many rather broadband sound sources more difficult.
Result: Neutral wins again over sounding.
