Hi guys,
I understand that different head phones and IEM's have different sound signatures (I've learned this all here thanks guys). Some are Analytical, Warm, Neutral etc etc and people prefer one over the other.
My question is, a lot of prgorams or DAPS have pretty outstanding equalizers (Cowon J3). Does this sound signature still matter even though you can EQ the shortcomings of a specific headphone / IEM to your liking?. Can some audio experts here notice the difference if something is EQ'd and maybe my ears aren't experience enough to know.
As for example, I have an RE-262 and my brother has a DT 770 80 OHM. When I borrow my his cans I have a separate EQ setting that bumps the mids. For my RE-262 I raise the bass a tad bid on my EQ.
Thanks in advance.
