I'm sort of a newbie in terms of audio gear, I know how to use the equipment, but in terms of how sound works I'm by no means an expert.
I'm having something that I guess i think is a bit weird that is happening. I have a Little Dot MKIII and Sennheiser HD598's and when I'm listening to music on my pc I've adjusted the equalizer to better suit the sound I want. What I found out today that is when I reduce the 29 hz band on the equalizer, the bass actually gets much more pronounced and sounds MUCH better. I can even turn up my 59 and 119 Hz bands with little to no distortion.
Is that normal. Part of me was thinking that either the amp or headphones (hence my posting in this forum) just doesn't do good with the frequencies around 29 Hz, so by me reducing that frequency it's giving more opportunity for the equipment to do what it can work with best.
OR, stupidly enough, maybe the programmers of the software I'm using somehow wrote code wrong and for the 29 Hz band what is up is down and vice-versa.
Just curious if those more experienced would have any idea if this is a legitimate reasoning.
Either I'm finally pretty happy with my setup and the way it sounds.
