Friends, I entered the calibration with my behringer umc 1820 sound card. Measurements were made starting from 125 Hz to 8000 Hz.
Below are the measurement results for different headphones.
behringer UMC1820 could not give me the results I wanted. So I researched a new sound card. Accordingly, can motu ultralite mk4 or mk5 give me the sufficient output I want?
Since there is currently an MK4 in the country I live in, do you think the MK4 can meet my demands?

Here is the headphone output performance of a bunch of different audio interfaces:

The measurements are from Julian Krause.

If you're after an interface with a powerful headphone Amp, consider the Topping E2X2 or E4X4.
