HIFIMAN HE560 is an over-ear headphone. This measured profile applies 10 parametric bands with a -6.1 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: +7.1 dB at 2006 Hz (Peak).
