no you can't. you get used to one sound signature, you can get used to another one.

No but it answers a different, better question: does it matter if you don’t like the headphone other people think is “better”.

Don’t be envious of people on this sub who appreciate the sound of $2k headphone run through $1k amps, it’s a very expensive acquired taste, and I’m not sure at the end of the day that we actually enjoy listening to music more than the kid in a high school stairwell splitting the left and right earbuds with a friend. Ignorance is bliss.

Edit: since you mentioned gaming, let me add that ignorance is not bliss with games, better headphones can be a real quality of life improvement. And that’s what lured me into the premium headphone world; appreciating the difference it made for music came second.

I feel like I now don’t like the Razers anymore as I can hear how much bass there is and I hate it now…and thats after one day with the EPOS…on the other hand I still have second thoughts about the EPOS if the sound I hear I like or dont…

So here’s the deal. Since you’re used to massive amounts of bass, it’s going to seem like the new headphones are lacking bass, however, keep listening to the new ones and eventually you’ll grow to like the bass quality vs quantity.

Keep at it and before you know it you won’t be able to go back to your old headphones and they’ll sound like trash by comparison.

They do sound rly bad now to me…I tried the old ones multiple times and also my wifes ones and I rly hate the crazy amount of bass now…I guess I just need to get used to the new ones.

Thank you for your reply!
