Reply to comment by BionicSammich in I hate the Harman Curve by ShepherdessAnne

Thank you for the offer, however unfortunately I'm in the process of dramatic customization for my daily drivers and will get back to you after the project is complete.

It's just infuriating that this is even necessary, though. I mean yes, everyone should know their way around EQ. Cool, I get that. But the thing is the goal shouldn't be so homogenous. It's been getting worse and worse as the years have gone by and it's like, dude, for higher end products can we please just leave that kind of tuning up to the listener? If you're buying an amp and balanced cables you probably know your way around an EQ.

Have you ever considered that headphones in general just aren't fir you? You seem to be wanting a sound that doesn't really exist. Harman isn't a million miles away from flat. I've played with EQ with the aim of making stuff "flat" before and you just end up with an ass load of mids and not much else.
