Topic: Playing with EQ for my HD600 headphones
Good morning esteemed gathering! I've been lurking around here for a couple of weeks as I awaited the arrival and installation of my new RME ADI-2 FS DAC, and now I'm an official fan (what an amazing bit of kit!) I thought I would ask if this is possible... I have been using Roon DSP with a convolution filter specially for the Senn HD600 headphone, but I find it muddies the sound when used with the ADI-2. I have studied the manual concerning setting the EQ parameters and can safely say I am now more confused than I was before I started (I take the manual to bed with me to inwardly digest but I keep falling asleep - I wonder why that is... hah!) so would I be able to enter the details below somehow into the DAC EQ or would I need to make some alterations as these were for Roon or similar software?
Quoted from the Roon forum... (I realise I could only use the first 5 which are designed for that purpose).
Parametric EQs
In case of using parametric equalizer, apply preamp of -6.8dB and build filters manually with these parameters. The first 5 filters can be used independently. When using independent subset of filters, apply preamp of -6.9dB .
