I notice that my ears get very sensitive to treble when I am tired, not well rested.
For a while I was wondering why a headphone I find to be treble intense at times doesn't sound as treble intense other times. One that sounds a bit darker or smoother (HD6XX) sounds brighter when I'm in this condition (tired) like my ears hear the treble more intensely and in a way that benefits my perception of this headphone, hearing the details more treble boosted, enhancing the articulation of sounds.
The headphone that sounds treble intense sounds really treble enhanced when I'm tired to the point of the headphone response sounding really wonky and shrilly.
I'm noticing a pattern that my ears become more sensitive to treble when my body is physically in a tired condition. This is from lack of sleep I believe.
Does anybody else experience this or have a scientific explanation for this?
