HIFIMAN Shangri-La is an over-ear headphone. This measured profile applies 10 parametric bands with a -6.0 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: +10.0 dB at 1775 Hz (Peak).
