It can't, because the 'EQ' applied by the stock FR of your headphones irreparably fucks it over in the first place. So it's up to you to use EQ to unfuck it. If you can't understand this you might unironically be developmentally challenged.

fug I have a channel imbalance on my new headphones
Gavin Turner
As an artist, I don't care if people use eq on my music if that's how they best enjoy it.
Besides, eqing to compensate for a problem in the headphone is insulting to the headphone, not the musicians or the engineer. And unless the band self produces, the final product may not be a reflection of their actual intent.

unless you're using some type of parametric EQ I don't know how you're going to flatten the entire curve with any accuracy
Josiah Wilson
No shit I'm using parametric EQ, as is anyone who values fidelity.

From the other thread
>You can use EQ my only point is to not sling it around willynilly for headphone compensation because of generalized audiophile speculation opposed to familiarity across hardware and mediums with an artist.
Landon Davis
Yea, I'd say anyone who cares enough to post here is using a parametric.
Grayson Hall
>fuck over the intent of the artist
The intent is to sound as good as possible from any source. Different headphones have different FR, EQing the same headphones will also produce different FR.
Someone wanting +3dB at 100Hz because they like bass or lowering 5dB at a treble spike is not destroying the music. The artist himself probably didn't listened to his track from a flat source anyway.
Robert Sanders
Well duh, what EQ do you think people here use?
Jose Russell
What is the thinkpad of closed headphones?
