What software do all the cool kids use for equalizing?

Equalizer APO

200-300 pounds
closed back
over ear
listen to my metal with no bass, looking for something similar to MDR-7506s
looking for bluetooth. are there any quality wireless headphones similar to the MDR-7506s. Love them but the wire keeps getting frayyed.

>budget
less than $200
>open/closed back
I'm more used to closed backs, but any open backs would be fine too.
>on ear/over ear
Over ear
>sound signature (if unsure, what kind of music do you like best?)
mainly listen to stuff like King Crimson, Radiohead, and MGMT. Never really listen to hip hop anymore aside from Kanye and Cudi, so anything that suits all of them would be fine.
>previous headphones
HyperX Cloud II
Those shitty PS Gold headphones I fucking hate that plastic headband

I mainly plan to use them for PS4 gaming and music. I need to get out of this gaming headset hellhole.

That's not Chad, he has no facial harmony, his face is all asymmetric in an unappealing way and he looks low class, low IQ, very low pedigree.
Now pic related is quintessential, prettyboy with masculine features, very harmonious facial features, someone you'd like to have a beer with, someone you don't call a trog in your head when you first see him.

That looks like a Jew. Nice try schlomo.

Daily reminder not to buy shitty hype headphones but stick to the best.

LCD2 eq'd to Dr. Olive's studies on true neutral over ear frequency response are the best shit ever. Probably because the absolutely perfect seal they create every single time you put them on and that large driver(wait is driver size even discernible?)
Only things better are probably a modified for perfect seal every time Lambda and some exotic dynamics each with a DSP designed specifically for them.
I'm personally looking forward to when the "audiophile" companies start to embrace DSP because looking at the qc35 refresh(check out the raw fr on rtings) and the galaxy buds you can do insane shit with DSP using what are likely sub $10 a pair dynamic water bottle drivers in closed back housings. I bet you if like beyerdynamic sold an active DT880 DSP'd to perfection for $250 it would destroy the world

>shitty list
>not having a UTRLA-FI LINE
>not putting ATH-L5000 on the ULTRA-FI

This is actually good. I don't agree with certain choices like the ZMF and Meze garbage, lack of SRS 3100, no mention of which EQ's are available for which model with which pads.
For example there are GRAAS measurements of the DT770 with sick Dekoni hybrid pads on it which once EQ'd would suit the majority of people for their first headphone and would last literally forever.
That being said though it's certainly the best guide I've seen to date so I'm just nitpicking

i have owned these m40x's now for a year and been the best thing i've ever bought. extremely durable too. daily use and countless of hard slams and drops and no signs of wear in anywhere except the pads.

I've been sucking 7 cocks every day and taking it in the ass every 6 hours to save up money for an l5000 it's exhausting but I'm almost there stop hating
m40x and m50x are unironically good they just need EQ and you should also buy a couple sets of replacement pads(as to not alter the fr) because they fall apart every so often and if you just consider that part of the initial price of the headphone it will feel much better than buying replacements when it happens

You are in for the be amazed like i did. Add some foam between the grills and the driver just to test your taste.

Close back pls
>on ear/over ear
Over ear
>sound signature
Included a lil chart in there with the kind of music I listen to most of the time. Would be nice if it included a mic for casual gaming although this would not be the main use. Also, no amp, just want something I can use with my phone, really don't care if it's bluetooth or wired.

hey man I have a pair of HD650's along with a bunch of much more expensive headphones.
They are simply fucking GOOD headphones.
Try out oratory 1990's eq for them on reddit and if you don't like it then try just the settings for the low end, it really gets the lacking subbass up to audible levels
good choice though they will last you a good 50 years

Can I get some help here? I had to ask in the stupid questions thread because the headphones general died.

unironically use rtings to find a pair. They post raw frequency responses as well as their normal ones but if you don't even know what that means just go by their sound score it's not perfect but it's better than nothing.
They test the mic quality and post recordings. Also they test like comfort and portability and shit which are important
although seriously bro just get a job and go buy the new boss, latest revision of qc35 is fucking awesome so their brand new 700 one is probs sick too

I do have a job, but I will not withdraw money from the bank, nor but my self in debt. I have 100bucks to use. I will still end up paying at least 20-30bux to ship it to me. So it will be 130bux in total. You Klapistani who get free shipping don't look down on people who have to cross ocean ship to get shit.

Maybe should I just get the same panasonic? I can get them from a local store for 11 dollar.

So you walk with all that in your hands so people can see you, huh?

also DSP is alright, but it will never do detail, DAC, proper power cleaning or amplification.

because you’ve never heard accurate bass reproduction from a headphone before, or you’re a nigger although I’m pretty confident both are true

The target group are white people and asians, so niggers who can only appreciate bass won't get them.

So you choose guys to have a beer with based on how symmetrical they are. Sounds kinda gay

fucking hell, I hate to admit i was wrong
but oratory's EQ for the Elex is so fucking good
It removes a little of the "shoutiness" of the phone while making the mids even more sweet. I'm about to cum a load as thick as that bass, god fucking damn

Attached: elexbro.jpg (2000x1500, 669K)

of course it is because science
even these companies with huge amounts of resources agree it sounds the best, look at the latest measurements of new apple/beats, jbl, samsung, bose, etc headphones. They are all obviously trying to hit the harman target with their internal DSP.

been using hifiman he400s with a schitt magni/modi stack for a long while, and its about time for an upgrade.

I assume the amp and dac are still alright - what headphones should I start looking into as an upgrade to the he400s? don't mind spending a bit but would rather not replace the stack.

these do look pretty good, thanks. I really loved the he400s so feel good about sticking with hifiman.

So.. I'm sure that the guys rape those two girls and they lose to dick and scream to the heavens how they don't know how they lived without dick before.

How does this apply to the stax no stax argument?
The guys show the girls their superior audio equipment and they instantly want your dick?

>The guys show the girls their superior audio equipment and they instantly want your dick?
That's not necessary.
Girls can tell whether it's a stax or a nostax guy even through mere poise. There's a large difference in how a staxer conducts himself.
The average nostaxer does not even lift.

Stop with the stax shit you new/fit/fag cunt. You don't even own stax, you have a shitty 600. Go back listen to your teletubbies music, retard
