I find it strange that you buy a headphone for the bass and then EQ it to within an inch of its life, so that it sounds ..... more balanced.
Just sayin...
I don't do any drastic EQing for XB500 as it's close to the signature and the bass quantity is just appriopriate to me and I can make it even bassier if I want (boost the values) as long as I keep the similar shape of the EQ curve it still sounds reasonably balanced but got more forward/powerful sound to it. I'd EQ basshy and very bright sounding headphones a lot more probably. XB500 needed relatively small adjustment to sound perfect for my ears. You don't seem to grasp the idea every1 got their own preferred sound signature, what you think sounds optimal is probably not optimal for me. It's a question of how you want it to sound like rather than what sounds "good" because the definition of good is a bit different for different people. But yea I usually EQ all headphones a bit, I see it's a very small chance that everything sounded 100% best to my ears without any EQ, sometimes only small adjustments is required, sometimes more.
