How do you EQ your headphones?


Hi. Chris from California here. I am just about to turn 70 and have no major hearing problems. That being said, I know I haven't taken extra measures to protect what hearing I have and have done my "rock 'n roll" bit when I was younger. I EQ all of my listening through speakers and headphones using a Schiit Loki and find that with this little box I can make my listening experience a more enjoyable one for me. When I read and research possible new headphones to acquire, I do take the reviews knowing this. I have 3 planar-magnetic and 7 dynamic-type headphones and enjoy them all for their differences. I wondered if others EQ their headphones using a device or software or if they feel doing so is heresy?

I have found that with the Loki EQ, I can boost the "dark sounding" headphones (Audeze for me) a little on the top, and tame the "bright sounding" (Hifiman 560 and Grado 325) to my acceptable levels.
