HIFIMAN Ananda EQ settings for Mac
HIFIMAN Ananda is an over-ear headphone. This measured profile applies 10 parametric bands with a -5.6 dB preamp to bring it toward the Harman target. Low end: it adds back what the measurement shows is missing; treble: it reins in what the measurement shows is too much. Biggest single move: +6.4 dB at 105 Hz (Low shelf).
