Hey all, I've just recently started to get into improving my audio experience, and to that end purchased a pair of Sennheiser HD555s. I'm really satisfied with the sound; in fact I was blown away by how detailed it is compared to my last pair of phones (HD205s).
However, the bass is a little low on the 555s for my taste. I realise this is probably because I'm used to more bass-heavy consumer phones, but either way I've always liked a good dollop of bass in my music.
I find that if I boost the bass frequencies a bit in the iTunes EQ the phones are perfectly capable of providing the bass I like. However, I can also hear a little distortion when I do that, and I'm told that the iTunes EQ is pretty harsh on the audio signal. Is there a better way to EQ on a Mac without using iTunes' poor offering?
