Reply to comment by AyeYoYoYO in Yamaha's new headphones promise ultra-clear sound (for a mind-blowing price) by hugglenugget

It’s funny. I remember a thread last week where someone was complaining about not enough bass in Harman. Discontinuities like this make me think there will never be the one true target curve.

Mid treble harman messes with me because I’m a little bitch when it comes to treble. I love dark headphones.

There definitley shouldn’t be ONE.

Multiple target curves, for a wide range of tastes and applications, is best.

Headphone tuning from the factory, should be able to please several different curves, with multiple pad options to customize it.

This is the real future of open back high end headphones. Flagship models capable of competently delivering several different target curves, on the same model with quick swaps any user can easily do.
