That's a terrible analogy, would you buy a screen that has a fixed perma-filter applied to every input? The whole point of buying headphones that are neutral and accurate in their frequency response is that you can enjoy different pieces the way you want. You can apply any "filter" you want to color an accurate and versatile speaker, but you can't get a pair of beats to clear up the mids or make the bass less boomy.
- compiler-guy 6y agoBut if you don't need them to be less boomy or clear up the mids, and that is the filter that you want, then there is no problem.
- whatevertrevor 6y agoHey I wouldn't pay extra for reduced functionality, but you do you.
- compiler-guy 6y agoYou seem to be confusing my point that people have different preferences with my own preferences. People like the sound they get with these headphones, accurate or not. That isn't a personal failing.
- whatevertrevor 6y agoI said nothing about your preferences, that was the generic "you". My point is good headphones are neutral and versatile enough that they can do both, just like a good screen can make all sorts of different pictures look good. It's about versatility and quality in different dimensions, and headphones/speaker that impart too much color to music tend to be very one-dimensional which would limit what you can do with them.
