BTW, here's the brochure for the Etymotics ER6 that led to all this:

(although I'd been trying to do something like this long before this came out--if you search for the keyword 'EQ' and specify me as poster you'd find a long history...
)
So you can do the same thing to all the other phones they tested. But you can see in there that the EX70s came the closest to the etys in frequency response to start with... so EQing the EX70 is less demanding of the EQ and your headphone amp than the other alternatives.
(the 2nd one on the list is the EX70, and looks like the one at the bottom is Koss the Plug... and the 2nd-last one looks like the Sony NC10--but really, what ARE the two in the middle?
