Thanks Norman,

My main concern would be lack of pinna notch in those.
Although having made geometric models its perhaps not that important.
As presented they will most likely lift 3-5Khz due to the concha volume. Di=
rectionality may be compromised or blurred due to missing notch and outer h=
elix.

Certainly a good idea to experiment with them to find out how they sound co=
mparing your own ears, friends ears, a reference dummy head or even geometr=
ic ears.

Try making an ear canal simulator and see if theres a measurable difference=
 with and without it (after EQ).

BR
Mike.
