To me they sound a little shrill, which is also an area that's harder to measure.

Foam earplugs make the problem less annoying to me.

Yep, the foam tips they come with tone down the upper registers a bit. I use them on my 2nd pair for better isolation, and having a more chill sound is nice.

That's because they're 2-3 dB above Harman over a broad range of frequencies right where our ears are most sensitive (upper midrange / lower treble).
