When i was in the Sony age of headphones...EQ used to do wonders for the headphones..same goes for other brands like Creative etc.
But soon i moved on to Sennheiser... i just noticed that no EQ setting lets Sennheiser work normally.. if i do Bass Boost then it distorts, if i do treble boost then it is harsh, if i do rock then vocals sound dull.
I tried MX360, HD205, HD485, HD515, HD555, HD595...which means from cheapest to the expensive ones.
Any product from Sennheiser doesnt benefit from EQ..
Why is it so? u can argue that they are a real headphones with a linear response...but what will u say about MX360? ..its just a cheap Earphone from Sennheiser.
It might be the best of the cheapest but i tried all EQ settings on my computer & iPod.
Is this behaviour specific to Sennheiser or all other leading brands like AKG, Beyer, Audio technica?
