Ive been using an HE500 with its stock silver cable for a few weeks now and have noticed the treble being a bit too much for me.
I was curious if i purchased a full copper cable, would this help with treble?
I have messed around with equalizer settings but for some reason it still sounds a bit piercing to my ears. I have lowered the 8khz - 20khz about 3-4 dB. Any more than that, it seems to make the headphone just sound bad.
The HE500 are powered from a modi 2 uber and magni 2 uber.
I absolutely love the bass and midrange, its just the treble right now thats bothering me.
I have heard that copper cables help with taming treble, is this true? Can anyone actually attest to this? I dont want to spend 100$+ on a custom cable only to have buyers remorse because it didnt change anything.
If in fact a copper cable will help, recommendations would help alot as I know nothing about what brands are good / bad.
Thank you for your responses!
