Sean Olive. It's motivated by the fact that engineers are mixing audio on (actually-) flat-response monitors in studios with a slight echo, and a "flat" headphone response is the best way to emulate that. This curve is something they measured and published a paper on. If your headphones sound better with your EQ then they probably aren't meeting the Harman/"flat" target, or you're deviating from the norm in your preferences.https://headphonesaddict.com/harman-curve/
