Both my headphones are calibrated to my hearing curve using PiccoloNamek's EQ guide. My S6 is also EQ'ed, and it's a shocking transformation! Not quite neutral, but DAMN! Also, I've affixed felt over the drivers of my SRH440 to make them more comfy. It works! |

Classical (all periods) Rock (classic, prog) The odd song from other genres |
