Reviews of Beyerdynamic headphones shouldn't tell you they're good without also telling you they have poor audio tuning with a treble peak that makes things sound "sibilant".

You might be the kind of person who puts an EQ in your headphone path, but most people should go for something more neutral instead.

I don't know what in my comment made you assume I use an EQ.

As a first-time Hi-Fi headphone buyer, the reviews on Amazon and Youtube didn't surface the nuances of the different headphone models using quantitative information as DIY-Audio-Heaven does.

That was a generic "you".
