I've used this lovely little programme for a while now and I must say, it does seem to improve most headphones; some settings more subtle than others. It works really well with the Sony V6 and yesterday, I tried the px100 settings with my px95. It opens the top end up and lessens bass bloat nicely.
One headphone that I go back and forth to is the AKG k167 Tiesto. It has a fr that disco people seem to love (like Beats bass) and I found a setting for the Tiesto 267 on Accudio which works really well with the 167, except I modded it to slightly lower sibilance on voices. Result is the Tiesto is a lively and way more balanced sounding headphone.
Another one that works well with it is the dt770 pro. It's a really good sounding headphone via Accudio. The top edge is shaved down a bit and no big rumbling bass, but a clean sounding bass that still goes nice and low.
Accudio is really a super eq programme based on real measurements in order to work out a decent eq setting for each headphone tested. It also allows fine tweaking for sub-bass, bass, vocal, and sibilance settings. Interestingly, on many settings, I naturally tend to use the sibilance setting two notches down from what they set.
The only thing I don't like about ALL eq programmes on Ipods is the fact that you have to use them as the player. This means what you can play via them is restricted. If you upload music without Itunes, it doesn't see the files which is a shame. This means that you have to resort to Apple's much cruder eq settings which is a pity. They ought to do some work on their eq settings really.
Apart from that, it is a really excellent programme that enhances headphones very well.
