No, you're not an audiophile, you're an audio-enthusiast. Just like me. I value really good audio but it doesn't mean I gotta be very critical listening to. If I want detailed bass, I pick the Amiron Home. If I want soft treble while bass is there too, I pick the the Amiron Wireless. Those two headphones seem to be perfect for movies and gaming and music too of course. Audio-enthusiasts can love bass like us but the question: which bass? Bloated bass? Balanced bass? Excessive bass? If you like it, you like it. If you hate it, you'll slam it.
IMHO 'audiophile' is a never-ending discussions and will result in a fight for literally no reason. Having expensive equipment is either pretty much not worth it or either useless but it comes down to your needs.
And being sensitive to treble probably means you're sensitive to sibilance? Like the very strong "hiss"? I used to not like my DT880 and now it's one of the most favorite headphones. Although I heard the DT990 is an ear-nuking headphone.I’m also very sensitive to treble. Good hearing? And the lower volume is right as I want to keep good hearing.
I had a set of Grado SR80’s and had to send them back as the treble was too much.
