HD560S + Oratory EQ still a bit fatiguing
Hey everyone,
I’m pretty new to EQ, so I’d really appreciate some guidance.
I’ve been using the preset for the Sennheiser HD560S, and overall I like the tonality a lot. The only change I made was reducing the 105 Hz band from +5.5 dB to +3 dB, since I felt the original setting was a bit too much for me.
Even with that adjustment, I still find the sound somewhat fatiguing during longer listening sessions. I’m not exactly sure what’s causing it—maybe upper mids or treble—but I don’t yet have the experience to pinpoint it.
Do you have any suggestions on how I could tweak the EQ to make it less fatiguing while keeping the overall balance?
Also, I’m curious about the sound signature of the Sennheiser HD 550. For those who have heard both:
How close can the HD560S get to the HD550 using EQ?
Has anyone tried matching them?
Would you be willing to share an EQ profile that approximates the HD550 on the HD560S?
Thanks in advance for any help!
