Reply to comment by 1arghavan in Hifiman Edition XS and Moondrop Venus - Mid-fi Meh by slooploop2

Beyers bother me a lot but they do have a different treble emphasis section. The 109 was overwhelmingly meh to me with bright treble but it wasn’t deal-breakingly annoying up top for me

Yeah I think the treble region is the most subjective part of headphones frequency response. Different ear shapes and HRTF leads to massive differneces in perception of detail, sibilance and overall brightness. Even the brightest Hifimans like HE1000se is more pleasant to my ears compared to Beyers.
