So I have an HD 560s, which is my first pair of audiophile headphones, and they sound amazing. But I wanted to EQ them a bit because they are a bit too flat.
Does spotify EQ cause lot of distortion, since there's no preamping happening? Because I tried their inbuilt presets and those are really terrible, as they cause lot of distortion, since the sliders are very aggresively placed.
Since I didnt like their inbuilt presets, I moved the spotify sliders manually just a little bit upwards in the 400-2400Hz range, and now I'm not getting distortion atleast to my noob ears lol. Would love it if you all could share your experiences with spotify EQ and how good/bad it is?

Try the r/oratory1990 subreddit, theres a whole rabbit hole of eq options, includng presets specifically tuned for the 560s. Your best bet for eq would be to use APO on your computer and look at the info there.
