Hi I am now in the club.I
Mine is good except highs, which should be tamed.
Maybe good amplifier can solve this problem.
I am now running mines via Gustard A20H, which is similar sounding of H10.
Do you guys recommend me some amplifier?
I am now considering V281 and Atrox V2.

Just EQ the Treble.

What EQ settings do you all use to tame the treble while keeping as much of its clarity as possible?
The eq to right just lower the far right two.

What frequencies are those? How many dB?
I would lower one down just 2 dbs and hear if the treble is better for you.

Here's what I'm sticking with for now. I find it reduces the treble just enough to take away the harshness in the majority of songs while also keeping it plenty lively and fun. Will reevaluate once it's burned in some more. Used the Peace graphic equalizer which is why the frequencies are random numbers.

here is my EQ ,, it is small increase ( 1-2 db ) around the 500Hz ,,
should give better mids with more body and lower the effect of the harsh treble..

Been listening to a stock TH900 and a TH900 that has a Moon Audio Silver Dragon cable. Im using the ifi Black Amp/Dac. The stock has more bass punch while the Moon Audio Silver cable gives the TH900 more up front and clearer picture Mids. Treble is not as sharp but stays clear and open. Bass with the Silver is still there but it has less punch and isnt the main focus. I like the Silver cable attributes but I do miss the bass quantity from the stock cable. I sent my third TH900 to Moon Audio to get their Black Dragon cable.

Now I put on the TH900 with Full Lawton Mod and boy, it has the stocks bass punch but with more control and it has the up front mids of the Silver cable. The Treble is very detailed but much less sharp and more thicker than the stock.
