Yeah, gotta agree with EddieE on this one, 10k hz is by no means "treble over the upper mids," it's a D# five octaves above middle C (aka an octave higher than a piccolo can play). That bump for the T1 is inconsequential for music listening, esoteric overtones aside.
Sorry, I hear it completely differently. It is unbearable and unnatural. Anything but inconsequential. Voices are clearly etched by being recessed yet piercing. All instruments become treble instruments.
On listening to the T1 (a visit, I don't own it), I also found it to be a little harsh for my tastes, but my weapon of choice at home is the HD650, so take it with a grain of salt. Keep in mind when reading this freq. response graphs that humans perceive higher pitches more easily/louder than lower, so the 1000hz-7,000hz (I suck at reading log scales, bear with me) range that looks flat on this chart may be perceived as having a very very prominent high range
High frequencies in dynamic headphone drivers always cause more ear fatigue than speakers, but I'm not sure this is the case with electrostatic headphone drivers. Sound pressure is probably dispersed more evenly with electrostatic drivers. I still have to test out firsthand with my own music and equipment though.
