I would use an actual preset from oratory rather than automatically generated one - https://www.reddit.com/r/oratory1990/wiki/index/list_of_presets

is the one that says oratory1990 not the same as this? i thought auto eq just meant it was "automatic" for you and not auto generated

It's not the same. It's based on his measurements, but it's automatically generated (and that's where the name actually comes from).

Oratory measures the headphones himself, listens to them and fine-tunes the settings by ear. Looking at his PDFs you can also see that his presets are easier to tinker with, as he specifies bands that you should adjust to preference.

It doesn't mean that oratory's presets will be better for you, but his approach seems more correct.

In the end all comes down to your preference, if you like some of the AutoEQ presets more then feel free to use it and enjoy.
