    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    First, I want to clarify that I'm just an audiophile who likes professional, namely unfatiguing, sound. I was seeking ways to improve my dt990 pro. Make them sound closer to my HD650.   The reference3 plugin sounds more or less unhyped, as you said, apart from the bass which can be bloated on...

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    I recently tested it as administrator, logged in as administrator, changed permissions... still nothing. Very strange behaviour. Is it even compatible with windows 10? Can I uninstall and reinstall it, or will this terminate the trial?   OK SOLVED. I figured it out. You need to activate it...

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    Hello Rude Wolf. The fact is I can't load any profile. The add button is greyed out like the rest.

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    Thanks for the response. No there isn't such problem.   I forgot to say that I'm using Windows 10 pro 64 bit. I have tried on both versions(32 and 64 bit) of VSThost and Dark Wave Studio 4.9.8. . Other plugins work perfectly. I 've also emailed them more than one day ago.   Here is a picture...

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    Hi, I successfully activated the trial version of sonarworks headphone plugins("not purchased" red message) along with vsthost(free software). The problem is that after I load the plugin, through vsthost and reach the settings' interface the add curve button, where you can load new headphone...

    EQ cure all?

      It has been proven by Dr Sean Olive and Dr Toole that FR has an 85% correlation with subjective sound quality for both speakers and headphones. The other 15% is non linear distortion, time based errors and maybe some other neglected(not unknown) parameter.   What many subjectivists cannot...

    DT990 pro EQ suggestion

    DT990 pro are considered as one of the best headphones under 200$. Some people even compare them to HD800 in some regards(check the french version of "le numerique" and golderears.net review), without having a profound bias. The main reason, I believe, is their semi-open construction(like almost...

    Can two headphones with the exact same frequency response sound completely different?

    I experimented with a 31-band graphic equalizer for foobar knowing that attenuation works for a certain range of frequencies around the central one. I was carefull not to "harm" the mids. I tried various amounts of reduction for treble, bass and both. I think that beyers are not so dynamic...

    Can two headphones with the exact same frequency response sound completely different?

    Quote: But I used eq to cut bass( mostly below 120Hz~150Hz) and treble significantly and still the mids were different(less vivid) at all volumes(volume can alter perceived vividness).   EDIT: Could it be that the 650 have a very brief overreaction(big overshoot) in the step response...

    Can two headphones with the exact same frequency response sound completely different?

    Hello forum, I had the same question and did't find it appropriate to start a new thread. I own a beyerdynamic dt 990 pro and a sennheiser hd 650, both driven by a xonar stx, which I consider uncolored and distortion free when driving cans inside its limits-of course. (Audio sceptic here. I...
