My 'EQ' is a passive filter that lowers the 3kHz to 10kHz region. Takes of the 'edge' the HD560S has.
To me bass EQ is not needed but if one wants to I would only boost the 20Hz by 5dB and set the Q so at 50Hz there is no more boost.
For the price it is an excellent and neutral sounding headphone with reasonable good imaging properties due to angled drivers.
An alternative is the Sundara but the HD560S is lighther on the head.
Can you propose values of software filter that will match your passive filter? Or Does the same effects can't be simulated that way?
Filter: ON PK Fc 6000 Hz Gain -4 dB Q 0.9 ?
Thank you. I started using EQ not long ago but end up using it all the time. Benefits are too great.Either way your experience is relatively normal re your headphones sounding better once you've worn them for a while. You can always use EQ to take the edge off part of the treble in the HD560s and to also increase the bass.....I always use EQ.
I switch between:
Your settings
Oratory
+ I use sometimes "HiFi correction" I copied from other presets:
Filter : ON PK Fc 80 Hz Gain 1.0 dB Q 0.45
Filter : ON LSC Fc 110 Hz Gain -5.8 dB Q 0.75
Filter : ON HSC Fc 6000 Hz Gain -1.2 dB Q 0.707
Filter: ON HSC Fc 11000 Hz Gain 0.8 dB Q 1.25
I have some (AutoEQ?) presets from mega_switch database but don't use them often.
And now I will add 2 filters preset suggested by Solderdude.
