TL;DR: It is possible… but not really.

There is a few reasons. The first is the variance that occurs between products of the same model. Basically even headphones of the sane model still don’t sound exactly the same. Secondly, auto EQing to a target is fairly inaccurate in the treble frequencies (I don’t know why. It’s just something that I and others have noticed). Lastly, drivers have limitations. Not all drivers are capable of delivering specific FR without audibly distorting. I’m also sure that there is some limitations to how headphones are currently measured in terms if datapoints as well. There is a lot.

The treble measurements are inaccurate as they are highly related to your own HRTF.

I think you meant treble measurements, not terrible measurements.

2 main reasons, first is that popular measurment systems are inaccurate past 10K (that might be fixed with B&K 5128 adoption), and second one is HRTF, treble can differ drastically, depending on a person. You can't really fix second one without measuring your personal HRTF.

Every driver can deliver any FR you can imagine. You just have to lower the volume. Drastically...
