It depends which model you buy. Their 'Pro' model is marketed towards sound engineers so I doubt they mess with the EQ on those. They also claim they are "The Headphones Used To Mix In Every Major Studio." which I seriously doubt. AFAIK it's always recommended to mix with monitors, not headphones.

They are not marketed to engineers. They are marketed to people who think they need headphones as good as those used by engineers.

In reality of course, engineers typically use headphones that sound as boring and "lifeless" as possible, for obvious reasons.

Ironically, they often also buy (relatively) cheap ones, as they get used to destruction.
