seriously try it and discuss
Which is all well and good, but you have used shelf filters at 5 and 8k, not peak."He intentionally leaves resonances untouched, so if you want a less plasticky timbre, you'll need to find the ~5 kHz dip and ~8 kHz peak on your specific pair with a tone generator and use high-Q peak filters to flatten them out. Then again, you may as well get a different headphone if you dislike HifiMan timbre."

Oh boy your notifications are going to blow up. Welcome.Well you did put in 7 dB instead of 5.5 dB for the 105 Hz low-shelf filter, so currently you're boosting the bass more than the Harman Target.
Your EQ ?...wow so my EQ might have been onto something huh? glad you found it enjoyable; I felt I had to bring that little tweak to the forefront!
It's normal, since you didn't use a tone generator like requested.these two adjustments might lose a little detail tho
Your EQ ?...

The whole purpose of the tone generator is to find the very specific frequencies, unique to your headphone, where the resonances are. Those frequencies aren't exactly 5000 and 8000 Hz, they depend on each headphone.
I guess you just applied peak filters at exactly 5 and 8 KHz, with some random Q factor, hoping for them to magically work. It doesn't work like that. Otherwise Oratory would have added those two filters by default to his EQ preset which you used.
Yes, I had read the posts : first shelf, then peak after you corrected him.Nope - initially they used SHELF filters at 5 and 8k, since amended to peak I believe, but yes, randomly
Indeed. I'm not sure what the OP was asking for though if it was a tweaked version of an existing Oratory EQ. I suppose validation from another user that the tweaks worked?Yes, I had read the posts : first shelf, then peak after you corrected him.
I think the OP is simply lacking some tech knowledge. But we've all been there, right?
The most important adjustment to make whenever you're using EQ is to set the amount of bass that you prefer.What further adjustments could be made?
